Tops of rivers shimmer
Slowly cutting through the eden landscape
Like a samurai on a hill top
Simulating slow motion combat

words spoken
fantasies sought

memories brought

time slips
heart's strain
cutting deep as
love wanes

Mouse stuck in a maze
It's mind cutting through haze
At it's end find the cheese
Both mouse and scientist will be pleased!

Excision

A CYCLE OF HANDS
THAT HARM
WORDS
THAT CRUSH
SILENCES
THAT BURY
EMPTINESS 
THAT'S HEAVY
AND NOW
THESE HANDS
THEY CUT.

Full on apple tree
Sometimes predicts cold weather
Cutting out the worms
Rescuing the sweetest part
Delicious apple cobbler

Old Tree and Happiness

a hundred year
blinds covered
in dusty
of the bathroom
exactly
cutting across
on a sunny afternoon
with the space between them.

With Her Love

Each word cutting through 
  ten pounds of flesh…

 The Muse
    —killing me with her love

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)

Scissors

We are like a pair 
of scissors: alone - useless 
blades of solitude,  
but together - Atropos' 
shears cutting the thread of fate.

The Masque

Rhyme
to mask the message
Rhythm 
to drive it home
Trapping words
in cadence strong
Cutting
to the bone

Blossom

Loving you, 
Is like,
Cutting my heart out, 
And planting it in the ground, 
I know it will hurt, 
But I want to see us grow,
Together.

City Tanka

Cutting through the dark 
City lights keep shining on 
Each one lights a home 
There are millions of stories 
Too many for one heart to bear

Jack's Tale 1

Jack worked all day cutting trees
His parents were not very pleased
Though he was not bad
This made him sad
So he decided to take to the seas

Slash me with the sharpest sword, Strike me with the minor chord, From condescending, cutting word me spare. February 17, 2020

The duck has great features others lack -
Like water runs right off his back.
But for this hack, it’s too much work
To address that green-headed jerk.

After April Rain

After April rains and hails,
I smelled Summer aroma
Watching new cute babies fruits on green branches,
Cutting grass with down to earth mind,
Made my day

Lawn

Eyes in the sky
looking down
mere mortals
cutting the lawn,
there is no mercy
for a little clown
what am I doing here?
this is not my town.

Hive

they're
cutting
down the
last big tree
on my street
unwittingly re
leasing a giant
honey bee as the
buzzing of chainsaws
sting         my          ears

Prime Minister May
And Merkel, too,
Are prone to give Trump some rope
They're not cutting slack
Just watching their back
To avoid our President's grope . .

Divine Teardrop

Teardrop salt is divine ,is a cure

Cutting the Cheese - Something's Rotten In Wisconsin

In the land of Cheeseheads, there came a call
Saying I’m a big donor, best of them all;
Just give me the scoop,
Some real union poop;
Oh Governor, how you did fall.

Honesty

Be honest with me
tell me what you've done
our love remains in the balance
there is no room for lies
your last has hurt me
cutting me deeply
I bleed because of you

Rock Paper Scissors

Would you like to challenge your mind
Easily and without far to climb.
Place your palm out open wide 
In your mind try and decide
Show me cutting, hard or thin hide.
