Short Jonesing Poems

I think about love 
loving you 
but there's
only so many thoughts that I could have
only so many things I can write 
before I want to 
explore ever so gently
the many places 
of your body that 
only I

Kiss the rain
Tear me through

I awake today
I am pulled in again today
I loathe today
Is this lonesome?

Unmarked grave/ visions of an unmarked grave

Kiss the rain tear me through

I am jonesing  on the edge of your tin roof...
waiting, sweating, dying, crying,loving,living
 for something new


spade spiv spinning belle
Alone we lust
Alone we whisper
Alone Alone Alone is all I have...

Six mile hike
Twelve hundred feet of climb
Viv in a pack
Up on my back
I’d do it anytime

Six mile hike
Left a car at the top
Hiking through lava
Jonesing for java
Didn’t see a shop

Six mile hike
Trek in the painted desert
Slogged through sand
That wasn’t planned
Morning comes, legs gonna hurt

Six mile hike 
Granddaughter, daughter and wife
Out in God’s glory
Writing our story
Gratefully living this life...
