Salvaging the Past
Many nights there were no new dreams,
so I borrowed from the old

Resurrecting the scaffolding
of what lay unbuilt—untold

(Dreamsleep: November, 2020)...

Salvage
In a tunnel of lights
I see my life at the end
Burning a candle
Trying to handle
My ills and my past
Directing the cast
And I better move fast
Because this window will not last
If I believe in salvaging my past...

Our Beginning
your just a careless memory 
 swimming in a sea of what if 
 broken heart like a vase dropped 
 on the concrete of your words 
 splintered and sharp shards 
 salvaging whats left of this end 
 leave you bleeding lifelessly 
 till our begining...

Premium Member Decayed
one-time betrayal of trust 
    taints pristine relationship.
there's nothing worth salvaging;
           not much to cling to.

   they gave it a fighting chance 
      sadly, it was all for naught.
 too strong, the stench of decay;
           their love couldn't last....

Premium Member Seven Salvageable Things
My house 
soon to be
at the mercy 
of a catastrophic fire

the likelihood 
of salvaging 
everything
infinitesimal to nil. 

Given a choice 
to make off 
with just seven things,
I'd choose, 
in no particular order...

1. Family album
2. Keys
3. Cell Phone
4. Wallet
5. Computer
6. Flash Drive
7. Wedding Photo

Premium Member Weighing a Smile
When weighing a smile you measure its worth against the odds of its sincerity. Passion and desire fuel hearts on fire and yet, fickle flames sometimes flicker out. Salvaging fragments of shattered ego you suddenly feel quite vulnerable. And donning your mask of obscurity you seamlessly slip into the shadows. (Blank Verse) 6/17/2015

Salvaging
1

The reluctant thereness
I want to embrace.

The spiritualism without a god ?
This whispering darkness –

always becomes  an incensed flesh.
I unwrap myself.

        2

Please let me touch
the multistrands of understanding.

After all what was a religion ?
You were always seeking an exit.

The betrayal, godliness and
fog hours. I always remained obsessed

with the failing lights.

Mother of No Child
The mother of all
Protective and humble
With her manners that stands tall
A female that makes fledglings of no grumble
In her words are salvaging advice
A woman of virtue
The best of all that nurture humanity
She is cool, her presence is for the hurting; a medicated wool
Special she is
Forgotten not she will be
She will be told from one to another down through history
For the best of the best of women is she...

Premium Member Salvaging Remains of Muse
“My muse died at 2 a.m. she hadn't been well in weeks, writing drab, soulless poetry without alluring alliteration, any references to the Greeks. Too pooped to savor the flavors of a good, old fashioned write, she chose in her frustration, to abandon her life station, to just give up the fight.” So left to draw from memories of her great creative essence, I’ll paste together bits and pieces, of her wondrous masterpieces to salvage her quintessence.
