Words Have Eyes

We stitch together
Future and past
We sail 
Throught walls
This ancient mask
At last, at last,
These words
Have eyes

Premium Member Warping Time

"a stitch in time"
 is but a second gone
 never to return
 sewn in the mind, warped by time
 threads return to yesterday

Let the murmuring rain 
slice through the withering leaves,
like slender silver needles
and stitch the Earth's quiet wounds.

I'll let the sour sea make its kill,
dissolve my bones while I sit still.
Let salt stitch silence to my skin,
for I won't leave — not by my will.

you miss a stitch and something goes wrong
so you live your life

But leave it bleeding

Gossamer Wings

Reciting verse,
each stitch unthreads
Freeing moments,

The air vibrant,

Premium Member Dropped Stitch

Never flush
not tight fitting
a little bit out
not quite sitting 
right with the world,
I always was an odd bit of knitting,
two plain stitches instead of purled

Bloodsport

I tried my hand at a magic trick,
it was supposed to make others sick,
so while the blood was flowing
I knew I would need sewing...
Can someone stitch an artery, quick?

Socks 2

Sucked into the vacuum
Outside the realm of bliss
Closeted in claustrobic tears
Knit stitch dropped, ladder falls
Solitary socks seek new pairing

Back On the Line

I hate how I always put myself on the line,
I hate how the bullet always hits my heart,
I hate how I always stitch it up,
I hate how I always put myself back on the line.

Maples crown the ridge. Light stains every pane. A chimney exhales. Wrens stitch dusk homeward. One bright moment lingers. Night gathers the thread.

Tonsils With An Adenoid

Tonsils With An Adenoid

Took out my tonsils and adenoid,
Then did remove my hemorrhoid;
Received an itch,
From each stitch;
My life more comfortably enjoyed.

Stitch ran to Minnesota to enjoy Halloween
He had heard he might find the Pumpkin Queen
She was nowhere in sight, but he got to see
A little snow, which never happens in Hawaii.

The Dumb Lead the Dumb

We ran through the ivy without a stitch
When later that night we started to itch
I guess that it only shows
You know the old saying goes
The dumb lead the dumb they fall in a ditch
