To Karin: The Unsent LetterI called you my Magyar princess
because of your smoldering eyes
and dark hair and maybe you were—
or maybe just a woman
who knew how to disappear
while standing still.
I got your number from
your grandfather five years
after you departed
to visit the Brandenburg Gate
with a promise to return
in the spring.
A Florida area code,
and a man’s voice I...

Happily never afterMirror, mirror on the wall,
how do you choose
the fairest of them all?
why do you get to pick apart every single person
that never gave you the right?
Snow White ate less and less apples
until she became so thin a gust of wind could’ve blown her away
and she needed a strange man to save her
What if he tried...

Keeping Up With the BonesesLong before you were born, long before your great grandfather was born, in the time when magic was approximately eight times more plentiful than it is today, there lived a family in the remote part of a forest. There was a mother, Mrs. Slimbones, who was a witch, and there was a father, who was...

Did Butterfly Princess Impress YouButterfly princess landed in the garden on a warm May day
She isn’t local, must be from an ever land far far away
Her gown was refined, with corals, lavenders and sky blue
She had dainty features, and wore a silver bell on each shoe.
Tinkling while she walked, she approached the lilies first.
They needed a drink, so she...

Finally TomorrowFinally Tomorrow
So it's finally tomorrow
which I thought would never come
but here it is and so are you
my heartstrings softly hum
with all the love you give to me
that I greedily take
to you this thing I do avow
Your heart I'll never break
I could never get enough
these feelings soft yet strong and rough
wrap 'round me...

Pink is
The color of grace and divine femininity
The color of my silk sheets and dainty clothing
Pink is like a flower
The color of love
Pink is the color of who I am and who I will forever be

M'LadyAnd if I were no more
than the brook that flowed
Neath' the azure of your skies
Would not the warmth of your heaven
Touch the surface of my waters
Be the season spring or summer
And if my lone voice
was lost upon the winds
with the whispering of M'lady's name
Would it not give pause to thee?
What of the grassy meadow
Where the...

True Beauty, Indeed, To The Number-TheoristsTrue beauty, indeed (to the number-theorists),
reveals the distribution of the primes.
Beauty, too, is courage, the defiant fists
of a defender whom we praise in rhymes.
Beauty are oaths, that Prince Hector ofttimes
keeps shielding city, child, and princess bride;

The Lonely, pale PrincessA lonely, pale Princess
Waltzing in the sand
Sun streaked, flowery hair
Floral print, flowing clothes.
The lonely, pale Princess
Fragile but aloof
Wants to walk alone in the beach
Waltzing on the sand
The lonely, pale Princess
Not as perfect as can be
Demons clipped upon her wings
Bloodshot eyes from tears
The lonely, pale Princess
Floral print,...

Ashen Bridethey called her cinder, called her dust
a girl to scorn, a thing to crush
but embers sleep and coals still burn
and wicked hands will take their turn
she sewed her gown from moonlit screams
spun silver thread from shattered dreams
the glass upon her feet was red
from all the tears her hands had bled
the ball was bright, a golden...

The Lost Princessdeep in the woods where shadows creep
where tangled vines in silence sleep
a princess walks with weary tread
a crown of thorns upon her head
her name was whispered, then was gone
like morning mist at break of dawn
a cradle lost, a fate unwound
no kingdom left, no king was found
the stars once swore to guide her home
but silent now,...

Saturn on Saturday NightThis rink ranks right up there.
My power skates, slice each ring,
the scent of ice assails my nose.
Funny in the absence of air, I breathe.
It must be a dream. I don’t care.
The wind of Saturn blows through my hair.
No wind, you say, but I will believe
what this dream gifts to me. Can’t believe
I’ve made it this...

When the princess kissed the frog on the lipsWhen the princess kissed the frog on the lips,
her heart burst in three, painful double skips.
Then she sank to the floor,
dead as a nail in a door.
Yep ~ that's how they do fall sometimes ~ these chips....
