White Winter Coat
white winter coat
first of frosty ground
sneaks in quietly with fear
does it's sagging bit
first snow gently falls
warning of growing power
to bury what's green
snow in strength of time
potentially deepens for
smothering landslide

Smother Me Or Just Like You
You speak without words,
talk slowly, with fingertips
gorging on my soul;
As you strum I start to hum
sighing ever so sweetly;
Diabolical,
your anger excited me;
A moth to a flame,
ecstasy a brief smother
with that dark velour blanket;
Empty, crying out
my sound quiets the silence;
Subdues the restlessness
over and over again;
Now you know I’m a psycho.
Just like you .

You Can'T Smother a Person With a Pillow
We begin the zoom call
I only look at myself
Most of me is taken up
With the bedroom window
I imagine a large
Serpentine creature
Of folklore at the window
That only I can see
I imagine a cassowary
At the window next
Then some boiled nudes
A Texas blind salamander
Without the moon
There would be no nighttime
There are some the size
Of washing

Smother
Hate's got its benefits
Each party going their seperate way
Where partly knowing their's is best
means others can't consway
When all is lost to each and all
for coming back together
for what was lost to righteousness
when each was sure to plether
As all who know to not come back
leaves lives meant for each other
When all Dear Johns have hope to

My Pack Rat Eye Tis
accumulation
choking the room bitterly
an embarrassment
carefully tromping through it
side-stepping junk gingerly
My pack rack eye-tis
surrounds me untidily
disturbing eyesore
jumping over largest pile
not inviting company

Winters Smother
The sun fades away behind this icy veil,
Making the hearts of the hopeful grow stale.
A cold chill pierces this land of flesh,
While long and lonely nights mock any chance to refresh.
The season of death is very near,
A time filled with sorrow and fear.
No holiday can replace the beating sun,
Long days outside of laughter and fun.
So

Did My Love Smother You
often i wonder in my vivid dreams
when your fragrance sooth
my soul
and my whole existence depends
on your
breath
did i love you enough
enough
to smother you
when i look into your eyes the depth infinite
i fear that i drown in the sea
of love
your face the radiance you spread
fills me
then i get lost in the mist of love
the kindness the smile

Smother
Slip the glove onto my skin,
Touch my skin please,
For your warmth I yearn,
This glove that has barricaded my soul,
Has left me unattached,
Leaving me and you strangers,
You stand next to me,
But the essence of you I do not sense,
Rain falls on my face but my skin stays dry like the Nile,
This votive glove you have given

Hams of August Smother
Hams of August Smother
The folks are angry, really.
They can’t explain the diaper,
yet they would explain poor Jack.
It’s a plot, you see, to show
poor Jack’s been had.
Folks can’t see why
no matter what Jack does,
even if he scrubs
in water warm enough
to soften turnips,
sheathes himself
in eaus, colognes,
dons, perhaps, a silk of talc,
folks can’t see

Smother
I grab the holder of my secrets, and dip him into black then red.
I do not mix them, so when I stroke my reveal; they accompany one another.
I wish it was easier to speak as others would, but instead I let myself shed.
without words and a knife, I bleed myself on this canvas, and let

Smother
I don't need all this attention
Caused by some miscomprehension;
I can feel the anvil pressing down
To smother me like this is.
Such contact lingers cloying,
Out of order, so annoying;
I am being buried underground,
Don't smother me with kisses.
I desire greater space,
Cannot stand it in my face;
Claustrophobia billows in
