     in your heart
simmer in your soul

simmer in copper
as I forego the pigskin
for soft, sleepy, sweet
cranberry burnished

 ablaze in an amber sky
  the flaming pearl sinks low

My heart is quiet
My love for you at a simmer...
No poetic phrasing,
Only a quiet longing,
I want you still!

You have to use a bit of turmeric
It eases the pain 
From a nagging ball ‘n’ chain
Stick her head in it and simmer it...

dreams of those who dream - simmer
waiting for that spark
to lift them from their slumber
in vibrant purple bubbles

Walking into the flames 
Diverged in heaven and hell
I fill my flesh burn and singe
The filling is unknow
Not hot yet cold 
Simmer of both but
That filling ends as my body
Becomes its own crimation....

Christmas Stories Started To Simmer

Christmas stories we heard would simmer,
When of hope we had wanted a glimmer,
And each hour,
Bloomed a flower;
From God receive things we do remember.

Let the thoughts simmer,
  let the words breathe

Excesses slimmer,
 passions reprieve

Leave the ink arid,
  keep the page clear

Treasure the silence,
—that only you hear

Leave the ink arid,

A Lovers Charm..
A Merchants Ring.
A Bullfrogs Heart..
A Black Bats Wing..
In the cauldron, 
to simmer and swell.
I raise the Goblet..
and cast my spell.

in the sinews of my mind
there's not much place for logic
the heart rules with an iron fist
and passions stirred do simmer

i don't care much for chaos
but these are the cards i'm dealt

              sunny, steaming, sultry
              summer saunters so sneakily
              smells of steaks simmer

Fools are those who let

emotions overwhelm them,

and those who simmer in rage,

are among the worst,

for murder often is born

from this deadliest of sins.
