stiff outhouse door barely shuts
rude awakening...

a fragrant breeze sweeps inward
love begins anew...

 this break-up is like a death

Shuts everything down right now

Normal day at work...

Muse yells at my drained psyche;
She never shuts up.

Drowsy day shuts eyes  
Glowing eyelids adorn sky 
Giggling stars appear!

There's a lot I could do,
For if my dream was true -
But my dream shuts with the night's shut,
And the fantasy retreats to the nightly gut..!...

The Psycho Cell roof is leaking
The lady inside is shrieking
As hard as she tries
When she shuts her eyes
All she can see is Trump streaking...

Every blink of an eye, is like bits of frame skipped from a movie
Every long shuts of an eye, is like a deleted scene off the adventures of life...

Silence turns golden for the sober man,
Who remains sedate when taunted or abused
And shuts his mouth with great restraint,
To prevent a brawl from brewing up...

a toddler crawls in
bank vault-- timed to close—door shuts--
darkness—tragic cry

mom calls nine one one
drill for four hours--door opens
mom hugs child tightly...

And when life brings you down
Look to me
Because I search for you
When God puts a damper
On my life
And you know all of me
When the rest of the world
Shuts me out...

The door shuts lightly behind me


soft click


metallic boundaries


I turn around to see,
that you are the one that closed it. 


And I swallow


a storm....

The wind asks,
rainfalls,
mouth shuts,
leg walks,
sole prints,
age perishes,
the skin remain asides,
destiny fight protests,
life has no whys,
but remain with who's....

he knocks at the majestic door
broke her crystal heart
and left her with splinters

she shuts the door for life
no gliding for love
living to mend the pieces...

Whether one has been born for a few moments or aged a century,
when the body shuts down, it's never pretty.

When we are asleep
do we float or stay in bed?
Shall we meet in dreams?

I wake up travelled
My mind shuts down to my room
I go away to...

                         Somewhere I used to know...

In slow motion
Force furthers
Eye to eye
It rained

Whats that feeling
Love
Loneliness
PAIN
The earth shuts

My last inhale
Oxygen is intoxication
To dust you will become...

Rebirth....

Pi
What statistics?
What trigonometry?
Geometry bamboozles me
The math language completely shuts me down.
Pre-algebra breaks my brain waves.
Please let’s not speak of these
Crazy math terms.

A moonrise
is the start of dream time
as one shuts their eyes
to enter their inner world
seeing wonders that limitlessly defy common sense
to remind all that there
is more to life
than we can see...

Have a blessed birthday, Bebeth, 
The chosen ones are in the flock; 
Sheep are safe from the second death, 
Heaven's door shuts when the goats knock.

The light is window
morning balance,
black and grey.

Last night`s pub
washed out with dark tea,
pull the chain,pat the keys.

The front door shuts
unwillingly, steps are cold ;
time for the ghosts....

When it comes right down to it, I'm an average joe
With a lifetime of contentment and friends that I owe
Without them life sucks
The happiness door shuts
We're left in the cold with nothing to show...
