March Comes In Like A LionMarch Comes In Like A Lion
Dandelion dance
in the palm of my
hand; a gentle
bloom.
I love
my birthday
flower.

ThawI have a heart too warm
for a body of snow.
My torso went out first—
The buttons before my chest
dropped into the soil.
One by one, they stripped me tenderly.
—I feel exposed.
My limbs were the next to leave—
Technically I only had
arms that once traced words in frost.
The damp branches—they landed right beside me.
I couldn’t reach them, of...

Forward MarchWe're all here on a journey
With only one way to go
FORWARD
That's what I believe
Yes we all do different things
Choose the streets roads
And avenues we take
But going FORWARD
Is mandatory
We make our own decisions in life
But that direction won't change
I'm just sharing what I see
We can resist
We...

After the March"After the March"
Almost eight years, the flags have flown,
A soldier's wife, yet so alone.
Eight years of heartache, silent cries,
Of wiping tears and telling lies
Like "I'm okay," when I was breaking,
Like "We’re fine," though barely making.
Stress clung tight like second skin,
While I held the outside in.
Weight I carried on my soul,
Filling both the mom and dad...

Where Are They Now?In this country
Politicians line their pockets from back-door deals
Sports figures kneel with raised fist, and protest our flag
Hollywood celebrities exclaim they will leave our country
Silicon Valley tramples on free-speech norms
Corporate elites rig systems to transfer wealth
and live more royally than kings of yore, while
Children hunger
for food
for love
for protection from abuse
Where are the marchers,
the protesters with...

The Light That Never FadesA mother's love is so deep and real, it never shall fades,
She holds her child day and night, no matter what may happen there.
She smiles throughout she's crying and hides her miseries with grace,
So her dear child perceive only happiness on her face.
She spends her time, her care, her touch,
She never expects a thing, though...

Hold The Applause
As a young child of five,
I found myself in dance school.
It was a fun place to make new friends,
as we learned about dancing.
After a year of training,
we were ready for our big dance recital.
The exciting night finally came,
we were dressed in hot pink outfits.
Now it was our turn with music playing,
we marched out onto...

ONE MAN MARCHA man was marching through his mind.
An empty cell to fullfill his time.
Long before he traveled lands.
He blistered truth with burned up hands.
Many miles and waters sailed.
Out for nothing and still he failed.
A man was marching into space.
An endless look expressed his face.
This forced impression along the ride.
Consumed illusions to take his pride.
The need for...

Unsubstance - March 27-May 9Elusive, quick, a wisp of spectral smoke,
you, as a twinge that flickers in the eye,
haunt the corners of sight; you mystify
perception—such the awe you so evoke.
Arcane, abstruse, veiled in a phantom cloak,
you, as a fleeting shadow passing by,
confuse the intellect; you do defy
detection—all instincts you ill provoke.
In those moments, when(briefly)you appear
as a...

Stitching a SoulHow do you stitch a shattered soul mirrored in cracked reflections?
Friends arrive too late, armed with needles,
once the bleeding has stilled,
sewing memories into a cloth of loss—
stitched of sorrow, wearing grief's heavy gold,
as if it were a crown above the stillness of the dead—
enthroned in hollow solitude.
Thoughts twist like barbed wire,
fences no soul dares to...

The Cute Kind
Tasse and Gobelet are lovers.
Two beautiful peacocks.
I made a wager on the horses
,but didn't wanna tell my friends.
The woman said. She would
listen to Organ music during the day
often times she'd sing along with
the words to the songs: she had
an old book with songs,rhymns and poems
in it. She'd get up early in...
