Summer Heat

Tanka 
 
August radiation 
Midas burns what he touches 
Pale dust and dry leaves 
Zephyr wafts heat from hell 
Hue of Hades is sky blue

Drift

A craft ever afloat
in dark endless doldrums.

The drifting aether-boat,
station of static hum.

Fallout: the lethal moat.
Recov’ry never comes.
Form: Rhyme

Tear

a tear in each eye
surviving the bad hair days
my tumor and I
both shrink from radiation
the treatments tear us apart

contrast for the word "tear"

If I Am a Firestar

Radiation stings sweet Rivaling the burn of Razor blades through my soul Ready to leave a scar Rupturing the healing Right before the climax Reflected in your eyes

Red

New exposure,
life dissolved

at 1000 retgens an hour.
nuclear radiation solved,

we've made life such,
not to doubt in debt,

skin melting at the slightest touch,
Cherbobyl catastrophe.
red nuclear melt.

Fallout

Darling, you left without giving me a single glance
It’s on me 
I don’t blame anyone 
My heart wouldn’t have resisted all the radiation 

I still think about the possibility of our shining 
If just we weren’t destined for decay…

Pent Sills

These graphite singularities
contain universes
unconceived,
awaiting
the Big Bang
of inspiration, but
narrative particles
escape like
Hawking radiation --
gravity’s diminution
evaporatively slow,
nearly virtual,
and random.

Premium Member The Gates of Faith

The sunset is majestic,
As my sister endures radiation so that her children keep
   Their mother.
I tell you if I can unlock the gates of faith.
So that all of us may know the power of God's provision, 
I will do it or die trying.

Premium Member Affordable Care

Proton Therapy
  may be right for you
One-sixth the radiation
  nowhere near as exhausting
And take a look at
  how much less it's costing

Why is traditional 
  radiation therapy promoted
Are its insurance coverages
  so sugar-coated
Form: Rhyme

Immaculate Conception

A single cell dividing
brings a new life 
to this infertile body.

Hungry and eager, 
it grows quickly,
pushing organs aside
or consuming them.

Knives, radiation, 
and chemical poisons:
Failed abortions.

Cancer claims another woman.

Long Live the Sky

free verse

Long live the sky!
Invisibly
Invincible
against solar radiation
the earth’s atmosphere
Long live the sky!

Long live the sky!
Obscurely
Oblivious
protection for
earth’s inhabitants
Long live the sky!

Red Sun

#1
warmth surrounds the Western Sky 
sweetest midsummer solstice  
flames beaming through the clouds 
mask of the sunrise

#2
sunrise, sunset, sunshine lace
visible radiation 
loving the vibes from the sky
sun lounging around

Colorful Life

Green is what is
Brown is what was 
Red, rebirth, renewal
Yellow radiation from the sun
Blue expanse of sky
Black space
White emptiness
Goldenglory
Orange is change
Purple is what is new
Pink holds the small things
Gray choices
Colorful life

The Grace of Tranquility

Bright, burning; shining, and glorious light—
Penetrates the abyss of the eternal night.
Illuminating me in its majestic glow—
I experience the radiation of its flow.
That is never ending for all of eternity—
Allowing me to exist in the grace of tranquility.

Again

Wanted to touch you again
Your face
Your smile
Kiss your lips
Hold you close
Feel your softness
Again

Fourteen years--
Chemo
Radiation 
Took you away from me--

I held you close  
Limbs- frail
Face- radiant
Eyes deep dark 
And then nothing--

Catastrophe

Energy from nuclear power
Taken for granted and tamed
‘Till water fails the cooling tower
There’s not one person to be blamed

Thousands flee released radiation
Poisonous air descends
Threatening all within the nation
People run, searching for friends

Premium Member Steady Healing Hum

Current stabilisation
Unceasing pulse
Divine love radiation
Manifest at once 

Palms & feet ignited 
Resplendent glow
In solitude delighted
By electricity flow

No longer sporadic  
Is the magnetism
Divine elixir eclectic
Fills all chasms 

Within

Premium Member Holly Always Wanted a Bike

Holly had always wanted to ride a bike.
But her body was ravaged with cancer from a young age.
She had never been strong enough to ride one.
Her life was filled with radiation treatments and injections.
When she passed her grandmother said “She is riding a bike now”.
And she was.

A Pink Cake For Me

A physical, some lumps, mammography, biopsies 

Chemo, radiation, surgery, side effects 

Near the edge, the strength, the will, sprouting back to life

The scars, a gift, a miracle, a testimony, reflects
