Short Unexposed Poems

Her naked face
Aroused me.
I was helpless 
Looking
To find a

In the unplumbed depths
of whales’ deep-held breaths
a singular shaft
fired with force from the aft
twists to it end.

Deep in the dark
where reality lies stark

A window opened/
a door closed.
A truth hiding,
cowering,
unexposed.

Occasionally

When most talk
 no sooth is said,
but they don't know
the power

because they

I bet you do not know how many hearts you stole
Hoping one day to turn them into gold…...

I did not struggle,
could not escape nor abandon place --
became, instead, a creature
habit-ridden:  a cousin
to the circus seal
that honks a horn
for fish....
