Listen to poem:
stairway
to heaven bound
has step-wise tiers
strewn with slippery slides
snaking down to land head first ~
rung hamstrung
around
about us wend
spiraling fates,
treading sills as lame cats
or children unsure of fruit
wink at chance
we were so hot
drop the bottle top
so we just drop
and stop
hit the deck
i was so wet i'llnever forget
it was
STARCASE SEX
staircase
ascending where
incandescent
stars are stalactites
hanging in a sapphire sky
of satin
shadow
shimmies up stairs
catches my eye
and ceasing its pursuit
stops so I can snap its soul
coiled and still
the stars stun my cloudy eyes
they never looked so striking
a staircase to the unknown
unplanned destiny

Shadows
clinging to steps,
grain worn by years~
voice drifts between each tread,
pausing where the past often
hesitates
Vignette
gasp
climbing
an unknown
spiral staircase
wow

Blank lines
The palate stairs
Back at me
Grunting as I fill it up
Like an old staircase
It groans under the weight
Of the human in the words
spiral
swirled, kinked
looping, curving, rotating
staircase, coils, arrow, ruler
pointing, aiming, training
precise, unbent
straight
the spiral staircase
leads to Anabella's room
dark spider webs dust
We build our staircase to change the world
yet as we ascend, we grope and stumble
The higher we go, the more we see
it's the world will change you and me
I climb a staircase of salt
toward a memory
that never took shape.
Each step dissolves
into a mist of thought,
and above,
I am but a drop
in a dreaming cloud.
Spiral on a floating staircase
Vamp
Entwine me like she
The pinnacle
Of success lies
At the top
Of the staircase
And,
Failure
Keeps plotting…
To climb down
The stairs
Between
My efforts
And
My achievements!
didnt know how
to go up or down
sweat on er lips tasted sugary
i was sure now
smoke and fragrance
of life
fizzled our mind and heart
i shouted
staircase to heaven
Form:
My mind is straying towards
A staircase of the unknown
One vibrant as relativity
And puzzling
For realities perception
Is fading on my thoughts
Like staircases
Decaying
Sometimes in the sky
Showing puffy clouds
Smiling in the summer
Staircase in shaped clouds
A staircase going only upward
Path begets long paths
Next to horizon it starts
Staircase of heaven

The beauty of the sun
shining through the clouds
after the rain
leaves a breathtaking moment
like a golden staircase
to joy,
like the cloud and mist in life
there are horizons.
What waits
beyond the top~
golden and worn
from countless going up
those fair wooden stairs, but none
coming down?
The radiant girl looks down submissive
A smile that's flirtatious, not aggressive
She suddenly lurches forward
Fell onto the floor awkward
Facedown nude waking up delusive

i whisper in her inner ear
staircase to heaven
i know
lets get this cobwebs off
clean our thoughts
i know
we slip on the semanic pool
land in the burning
fire
then kiss in guilt and
despair
Form:
thirty years later---
same staircase
yet so high

Spiral,
Ascends upward
Rising above,
Enlightening the mind
Then slowly, bringing you home
Stable roots
