Long Water glass Poems

White Rose

Oh, no, not the poet, 
Why not the maiden with dark eyes 
Shadowed by distant tears,
I will help her to shun her fears
And silence her night cries… 
Oh, there he comes, the poet…

Shadowed by distant tears,

And silence her night cries…
Oh, there he comes, the poet…
 
Yellow Rose:

We are going to clean this desk top today, without any wailing or screaming or pouting...

After we met
I thought we really had something,
Really hit it off.
It wasn’t the words we spoke,
The easy fluorescent trail they made.
Maybe it was the Japanese lantern
Glowing over your bare shoulder
Or the smile you threw
To the...

THINGS NOT  TO  USE  FALSE  TEETH  FOR

Well for starters, some things are obvious, see?
Wouldn’t   advise anyone, not just me,
To be a circus rope-twirler holding the rope in me...

Winter Autumn Spring the door! 
Now I know the flow goes all the way to the summertime heat!
From the ocean low to the valley floor around the earth-circled seat then back to us from the...

Grass growth in the cove
			 where Larry's boat sat 
			 years after Larry’s ash
			 whirled with rocks in space
			 daunts the pickerel:
			 silently galloping glut
			 challenges the channel.
			 Someday soon there may be

The languid petals of addiction fall in a silent way;
they do not scream or keen, but wrap insidious mind-vines

around all that you are, soft as a smother of snow.
And no one speaks of it, tongue-muffled....

In and out like that of a play
His wound now bore a mysterious clay
The Capitan’s voice made him stay
As he bowed now in silence to pray

As he awoke in the morn he slips
A water glass...

Come and Find Me in My Solitude


four fingers in a water glass
to keep the “creep” away
four fingers in a water glass
to keep the curse at bay
no ice, let’s keep it quiet,
hard bite of whiskey’s sting
“hair...

Truth, a so empty word 
do you have uncovered
its meaning 

Want to get to the stars 
but do not see the beauty 
of the night sky

Looking for soul in hope 
that no one will drink...

Meeting with extensive eagerness.
Seems like a decade or two,
Old times in the longing.
Sitting as if this is the last of many.
Hours toss away freely.
Reigning in thoughts of speaking.
"O' me!"
"Look at the time?"
Placing my wristwatch in...

a very loud noise
started ringing from my clock—
I fell out of bed

a bumped water glass
rolling across the hard floor—
I slipped on my head

a loud screaming sound
resonated through the house—
my face turned bright red

my husband woke...

The sun paired well with the apple 
Sugar
The tartness and sweetness 
Reminded me of the days
And I stepped outside to feel the sun on my face
And the trees and the grass 
All green
And the rainbow...

And skies lay still on horizon's line
I'll sit here in peace, watch the morning pass
To seek reasoned questions for man's design
This scene cares not for any tomorrow
Nor feels...
