Listen to poem:

What lies between the lines?
mines, rocks, thoughts, ideas, 
dreams, failures, memories, dimes?
A story left unread
A speech left unsaid
A fish alive not dead....

dreamers
voiceless refugees
fragile

unread...

each stitch unthreads
Freeing moments,

The air vibrant,
all seams undone
Tapestry open
—silk re-spun

so much depends
upon

a book unread
the cracks

of its binding
its word

its phrasing

so much depends
upon

theming of phrases
the meaning
of words

take care, take care...

Words, walk, wakeup
Past the mahogany dresser
And the ruffled feather bed
Behind the sunrise
Where love speaks red
Words, walk, makeup
She is a woman
Unmistaken and unwed...

pages in a letter

read or unread

are like voices in a room

too soft to be heard

or memories

too dear to be forgotten

somewhere in my heart

on a  shelf they lie

your loveletters...

I lack the discipline that keeps me inbound.
A famous author's endings should be praised, and not eschewed....

fresh flowers and stones marked visits
overgrown weeds, unread engraving
no flowers, no stones 
abandoned memory
sun warms cold headstone

The night is a den
  of mixed horrors

A trap
  where you sleep with the dead

Any light
  that’s remiss or left vacant

A pathway
  —to gravestones unread

a distant place
a different time
no intersecting
of parallel lines

too much in common
drifting hearts
analogous souls
unclear starts

love that is lost
without a look
an unread chapter
in a closed book...

Approaching the lexicon
of what’s still unsaid,
My words beg acceptance
now silent unread

Inside there’s a freedom
once crossing the line,
unspoken confessions
—unfrozen in rhyme

(Dreamsleep: March, 2021)...

Don't worry now about past tense,
It's gone, passe'~ no longer hence.
Forget all those words left unsaid,
moments still waiting, books unread.
The future will come, enticed or not
Enjoy the days time has brought....
