Someone whose love was true.
And through the ups and downs,
They would always be there for you.

You said that your someone
Would hold on regardless.
Their love...

The Kingdom of Forgotten Things

where rusted nails and screws gather dust,
never used to mend the house
we swore we’d build together,
my dreams lie waiting.

In the back,
with the dried-up ketchup ...

Call for Corn Awe

...
I wanted to make something drawn from bosom
      You & I gemini'd, 
From the wells extract'd virginity untouch'd 
     by compounds—
Forgot to send it out, forgot to hit send,

Palatable Conversations at Night

...We, 
with the geometry and evening 
balance of our midcentury hands—gently 
lower the cloche over the day between us. It is a

My Ballot

...I cast my ballot for Destiny
My dreams halted
My mind behind bars 
An inconsolable thought
I greet Destiny with a tired smile
Destiny stares back at me.
She perseveres.
We meet in the middle

As absorbed and filtered
will be light
if a grain of sand
becomes glass,
surrendering itself
to high heat....

Until We Meet Again

...I know you are sad that I am no longer there. 
I'm in the presents of God. No need to despair. 
This place beautiful unlike anything I've ever seen.
Not one soul here who Jesus hasn't made clean. ...

We Feign Surprise

...Look around; the Earth is dying;
the whales and elephants crying.
The honeybee has dwindled down,
the Earth is dying; look around.

Plastic pollutes the world's oceans;
brewing up poiso...

He

...He deserves such softness. 
Bony hips bruised on the corners of card tables and rough edges
Three different lifetimes worn through his young skin.
Skin bruised beyond its years and demanded toughe...

A Song With No Name

...A Song With no Name
From my grandfather and my dad and performed by their son and grandson, me.
It was an old melody with no name of a ballad my grandfather wrote a long time ago.
The melody was s...

If I Long For You More Than Death

...winds of separation you blew towards me when you set the boundaries of longing. 
it was you who overfilled the bowl I held out
then whilst spilling the wine, you laughed.

Night

...In shiny armor knights of old,
Only quests for the brave and bold,
Famed Holy Grail chalice to hold.
But my heavy chalice isn’t gold,
Mine is night black and filled with cold,
About death is my ...

Visit

...Growing up,                                                                  we never lived near my aunt.                                          On trips t...

Missed
