I Think It Is Today

Watch the edges of my memories
curl slipping out of focus
The abyss slowly erodes
staring at my ethereal hand
it goes

Staring at the dark
Enemies from the shadows
Paranoia draws;
Refuse its windmill fight and
Dream into tomorrow's light

Me Myself and I

From the shop mirror there was an elderly lady staring at me. In revenge, I bought Mickey Mouse top. With glittering jets.

Desire

It's not the fireworks
 It's not the starry sky
 It's not the staring moonlight
 It's the night I chased darkness alone

Tonight, the moon's staring at me
     Does it suspect I'm writing about it

   Really, it must ~
     Why else the fuss

Dreams bloom
   from simple wonders.
They dance,
   staring with desire.
Standing-
   at a distance-
      is reality.

I think its sleepy time
Eyes are just staring, not blinking
Its time for a drink and a rhyme
As my energy boat is sinking

Blue eyes 
That looks back at me.
Melting your heart.
You can't help 
But love those 
Blue eyes. 
Staring back at you.

The paper moon
Lurking at

Shiniest gemstones galore.

The dog stood in the bread bin
He was staring out to sea
So he baked some scones, bread and cakes
And we had them for our tea.

Hiding behind

Shouted with glee

Untitled #31 / Stop Staring

Stop staring! Holocaust survivors!
Oprah! Ann & Nancy Wilson!
Mother! Brother! Father! Friends!
Can’t you see I’m no longer a man?

Beautiful Liar

Water fell from eyes
which held a face staring; me
Hiding will not pass
the sight of your wanting need
So I'll beautifully lie...

cold and snow arrives
young praying mantes last bow
staring at the trees
content to see the egg sacs
holding their spring progeny
