When I call,
Try pick up;
Hear me out.

Why you won't
Pick my calls?

You got heart,

If not me?

I see you in dreams,
those inconsequential things,
shaped in busy slumber.

I call to you - with

A young student in high school named Don
badly needed to go to the john;
but in his great haste
he expended his waste
in the janitor's closet, the moron!

Death calls in the mist
Carnal clouds gather above....
In flight soaring high
Guardians of the dark side
To enhance her arousal.

It’s no fun when the rabbit has the gun
Cat calling by women frowned upon
Looked at as desperate or even masculine 
But when guys do it they’re just being men

Conscience makes
the liars weep
The feeble strong

the thickest door
Forever’s shadow

Winter Calls

Sun recedes earlier each day as fall gives way to winter.
Vibrant colors of my favorite trees recede in sympathy.
Death of light and color usher in the cold grays of darkness.

Where all beauty calls home

The feel of your body, 
your warmth against my back. 
The sound of your breathing
The scent of your skin. 
It is in the  truth of these moments
That all beauty calls home.

Just August

weather in motions,
temptation calls from past flames.
heavier are hearts,
terribly torn from past pain ~
oh, teach us resilience.

Nothingness Calls

Leading from today
into the past

Present state of mind
destroyed

The future an orphan,
waiting disowned

Hell’s pathway
—to the void

The Past Calls---Swai

Somehow, before the call of morn
When misty fog drifts on hawthorns,
And daybreak hails a new sunset
I trace past moments now at rest.
