Short Unmanageable Poems

You leave my heart 
haunted 
dismantled like a train wreck
 broke and unmanageable
 left to decay
 As time passes I have no feeling
 everything remains numb 
void
 lost 
your heartless in your love
jumping from one to another 
leaving a trail of dismay 
and many more haunted hearts
 In trainwrecks...

                   Soft
              and gentle
      the feel to mine digits
                    as
         the soft of powder

              With desire
    her flesh she did expose
                 and I
             the wanted
                wanted

                  Yes
             I did touch
            The tight wet
And the purr she did surrender

              rendering 
       the unmanageable
                scream...

Ah, to write
to gather random thoughts
corral them
Giddy-up….whoa….style.
Chase down those tumble weeds,
itinerant thoughts
blown by the whimsical winds
of imagination
into ever unmanageable
clusters of confusion
straining at the painful restraints
of barbed wire freedom.
A delusional state of self imposed
unconscious conformity
ever alert for the “rustlers”
who would cut the wire
breech the delusion
change brands
claim victory.
