Premium Member Exploring Nature


On dawn’s crystal face
mauve clouds frame tinged horizon 
with hued hill curves.   
Pearl streams mirror sapphire sky, 
emerald trees line jade banks. 
Nature’s splendor charms me,
an escapee from urban life.

Inhibition

As your own harsh jailor, keeps you
Chained up in the dark
Fight the fear now; beating off
What of it shouts down
That wishful-voiced, repetitive
To leap which mind-wall.
An exultant escapee-
The sound of midtown!

Premium Member Life and Death

A leaf, floating downwards, comes to rest upon grass. Escapee cutting off the bonds, unaware of its impending demise; the umbilical cord severed, now page-pressed memory; dried skin cracking, A leaf.

Don'T Forget About Me

Run, go, be free
Little Bea
You are carefree
Don't worry about me
Travel through the universe, go sight see
Scream, shout and say whoopee
I watch a bumblebee
An escapee 
Like yourself, you see
Bit do not forget your return key
And explore the world safely
But do not forget about me.

Seek

I never ever thought you’d see,
the likes of all these words,
but now you’ve seen,
and that worries
me.

Because what’s between,
beyond pen and ink,
is a state of glee;
but beyond this all,
is an escapee.

So now you’ve seen my philosophy
which hath your mind undone.
Now mind so clean,
you see the sun,
above the open sea.

And so I say to thee,
please just let me be.

Council Girl

a lost girl arranges in her room
               her dress with stillness,
               she pushes her tongue
               against small kitten teeth,

outside the lift groans and bangs,
               lights burn shapes
               of flats and stairs;

this is a place to circle in;
               to return to,
               never to leave

she is sediment, a line of ash,
              a failed escapee

Graveyard Rendezvous

On the fateful day before Halloween
Dressed as a vampire queen in green
I passed through the graveyard
With all my senses on guard
When I heard a rustling mean

In horror I turned around to see
Who had the audacity to scare me
Saw an old man bending low
Chiseling his name in a row
Looked to be a veteran escapee

I told him not to disturb the grave
When he started to turn and rave
His family didn’t spell him right
And he with his might
Had come out his name to engrave
