Darkness consumes me
Corrupted thoughts take over
Soul becomes hollow
Self castigation occurs
Tears of blood destroys all hope
Fed daily dose of dope
filtered truths poisoned as they may be
~ I dream of breaking free

I feel for each door that suffers a knock
and every smelly, foot-covering sock;
but these are things I must abide
as I stand against life's cruel tide.
I strive to write cause to think.
My thoughts are smog, the words in fog.
Mine heads a buzz all full of fuzz.
I've blew a fuse,no need to fuss.
with him
standing in the aisle
of a train
i'm wishing an endless
railroad ride
so i could dearly anchor
myself in his arms
that are almost touching mine
Form:
Heavily, darkly, cracked by light and
splintering shadows, cracking,
scratching out thoughts like
sandpaper grit,
popping on the creases of my mind.
when light fractures into noise…
I embrace the outburst
with emptiness chewing up my nerves.
The void softens the impact—
can’t break what never arrived.
All I want is red in bed
I don't think it's much to ask
red sheets, red hair, red hot love...
will my heart survive?

Touch my soul with your sweet loving words
Overload my heart with your love
Untie my fears with your encouraging ways
Catch my kisses on your soft lips
Hold me dearly and never let me go

oxygen and carbon dioxide
breathe it in
inhale the sight
let your senses
overload
drink me in
let the air
go to your head
close your eyes
one last taste
lick your lips
taste me there
breathe me in
don't exhale
Alabaster beauty, cold, delicate elegance, freezing glory, heaping ice jams,
kaleidoscopic luster, Mother Nature's overload, perfectly quiet, reflective snow. transfixing, utterly victorious, winter's xpected yearly zenith.
Okay, youse guys you're probably on limerick overload
Gonna back off, from now on some Wordsworth stuff will flow
With nose in the air
And clean underwear
Will prove I'm not just another pretty face, you know
Well, Mary O, I don't know if chicken feed's
the way to go, to catch the faultless phrase,
to turn a poet from a dame who's dazed
by right-side brain overload and malnutrition.
I'm Irish and a female;
Isn't that enough?
Always on overdrive
Always on overload
Fight or flight glaring over my shoulder.
The dooming thoughts of worry await me.
The exhaustion of the motions of survival physical and mental, drains me just as rain in a drought.
It was a sultry summer eve
When what did my nostrils breathe?
Methane with a touch of green grass
Permeating across the room
Look to the right and look to the left
I swear that weaner giggled with a smile...
As I threw her out the door.
Dark silence I embrace
Dark silence slows the pace
Dark silence cuts my frustration down to size
Dark silence quiets the chase
Dark silence relaxes my face
Dark silence cools my eyes

Pandemic crisis
Hospital overload
Unprecedented
Panic mode
Double shifts
No time for tears
No one signed up
For a suicide mission
Heroes collapsing
One after the other
Earning their wings
And our respect
AP: Honorable Mention 2020
mind is roaming,
brain is foaming.
energy overload,
frog is turning to a toad.
work again tomorrow,
need money that i could borrow.
plant a seed and grow a tree
now i have some fruit for free.
it's now time for me to sleep
i pray i'm not the devil's to keep.
There’s nothing terrific,
About being prolific
The mind goes on overload,
But the body has really slowed
I need a vacation,
Some beach rejuvenation
In Mexico, I confess
No more, no less
Bye - Bye
Don't cry!
