I am a pencil,
in this day and age,
computer rage,
I am a pencil,
unused,
but you chew on me for inspiration,
I am a pencil.
Form:
while harsh fingers of rain stencil the dusk
oak leaves chill in tight pose
yearning to climb heaven

One Tree Standing Contest
the third of january saw this;
the moon is a stone in the sky
and the night a stencil of light;
the rain an error of clouds
and the stars a coda of cats;
this day told me...
you are hidden behind your face,
all your words are coded like scripts,
your body is full of lines:
you are paged inside yourself.
Such waste of pen,
if your only subject
self-centered men;
Such waste of pencil,
if vain women the
stencil, patterns and
frames of your poetry –
her many loves
and woe-it-try!
And if Nature
and her creatures
are your features...
Why God only first
and last? – a few words
before rest, and a brief
recital upon rising....
Despite June’s tempest, I relish life’s grace
My eyes marking the stencil of ripped trees
A yesterday which draws me to embrace ;
The comfort of kin amidst storm’s reprise.

Excerpt from the poem Woodland of My Youth
Dated 4/04,2018
Resubmitted 9/5/2020
My life is like that of an Escher
Shades of life change with the pressure
His lines all straight of lead and chalk
But he dare not walk where I have walked
My lord my God what should I do
My life has not been straight and true
If I could draw my life in pencil
It would be free hand I would use no stencil
I just wish life came with an eraser
Remain silent until it's time
to love again
Finger touches and tongue tips
dance again
Rain drops coursing leaf veins
I want to stencil my name
all over your anatomy
as if I never had before
Magnified insight
finding new ways to envelop
your light
Soul shavings on bad days
don't need it all
the tiniest portion of you
will do
Sometimes my poetry needs
time for you to seep into
my vocabulary
to understand that perfect ground
you fall upon.
