Idyllic reveries
of fragmentary memories
painfully pierce my soul through;
melting away without you.

fragmentary tendecies
        manifold meanings
        in fictive narrative
once obvious 
            fascination in
               perspective
suggestive
intriguing
          mutably transformed
          now
          exhausted...

The flowing fire of day
Melted into the night
High o'er head the moon was out
Showing only half its light.

Dates made before this moment
Kept past their passing
Each a gem concentrically strung
On threads of fragmentary Nows ,
Waiting to meet their weaver....

simplicity

        the meaning

likeness

  the silence
      in the clouds

suddenly
    imagine
         what you like

in uninterrupted
                         leisure
descriptions 
       hesitations
yes
disjointed
        fragmentary
            abbreviated
absurd

The paint not quite dry
The strokes vivid and strong
Hues of violet and amber
A masterpiece set aside

Each color painted with longing
A portrait of all that is true
A faceless canvass of yearning
Uncompleted from hapless youth

Before the callousness sets in
A fragmentary work of art
Placed in an abandoned corner
Forgotten in life’s hurts...

I always felt safe while
tangled in sheets till dawn
as I'd looked at your smile,
draperies tightly drawn.

Idyllic reveries
of fragmentary memories
painfully pierce my soul through;
melting away without you.

Solidity

Separation insists
on our fleshly solidity
and fragmentary lives..
Perception daily strengthen
the confining argument..
We wish for transparency..for melting..
And search for relief
in idolatrous ways..
Until--
Transparency is experienced
as the real self
melting away the too solid flesh
which had convinced
our discomfort
all those years......

Pressed loudly underfoot
dead leaves fracturing
scattering beneath me.

Warm fragmentary vapor
slated breath steaming
evaporating before me.

Incurious quiet somber
nearly naked trees
standing beyond me.

Advancing dread dusk
day skies sepulcher
entombing above me.

Forlorn and unforgiving
October day ceasing
enveloping me frigidly.

Beneath a night veil bordered with black roses,
such a pallid, yet beauteous face,
nightingales nestled at her feet.
She's adept at knowing when to let
herself in.
She sits, sighs of sorrow,
ebony shadowed dreams.
She is bereavement-
Depression's sister.
Stars weaved in her long raven tresses,
scattering tears,
cruelly tightening cords of thorns-
around my fragmentary,
out of life's rhythm,
barely beating heart song. ~...

If I did not believe it to be true 
You have enjoyed observing 
Your actions have been prejudice to me 
Skeletons of our history 
Not once did you confess
That you missed me
Such a squandering instant
Your love for me 
Was only an illusion of my imagination 
And what thoughts of you 
Was truly misplaced and mistaken
A decade of...
Disintegrated, dismembered, and fragmentary assurance 
All the while you only seeked 
After my ruin........
