evening is silent 

as gust trickles on asphalt 

ruffling umbrellas ---

fingers in coiled position

grasp steel rod not letting go...

Cafe Racers 
slow it down
pull it up
boldly rival
wind whipped 
leather wrapped
beetle bright
coiled spring
chromed out 
in your face
visors down
rev it up
Go!
Go!
Go!...

Wool 
Sprout from the body, coiled
manifest superstrings becoming what we want
supple wisps of an organ exposed
hacked off and hemmed; 
now a wonderful christmas sweater...

Cracked 
The thin veneer of clarity 
cracked
and revealed
tumult beneath.

I want to shed myself
like a snake sheds her skin.

Words lie coiled inside me,
ready to spring....

Taking a step comes with a mind hard boiled
simple results come with body so soiled
despite life’s onanisms
some are full organisms
adapting to the heat to be well coiled....

Rattle Snakes 
In the desert sand, coiled like a rope
                                   Skin of Diamond, your tail will sing
                                   Your kiss, is the door to death...

Leave Me Here 
coiled up
kicked to the ground
its quiet here
when i plug my ears
there's no sound
let the tears
sink beneath my skin
let all my fears
scare me enough
to stay here
...
just leave me here...

Listen to poem: 
shell
spiral
coiled so well
to symmetry,
perfect in design,
nautilus sailor shell

what sounds lie within those
opera chamber
halls, decked in pearl
shell nacre,
shiny
glitz....

When Johnny Came Home


when Johnny came home from the war
he barely had stepped in the door
when out of the blue
his worst nightmare came true
coiled with his best friend on the floor...
