Tinctured Poems

Night Sweats

...Lay there sinking, thinking
under the surface of sodden anxieties.

Recall you darkly
the flickering hours, the tinctured years,
as sweat-stained sheets leech.

This room may be your last gasp...

Tint Of Orange

...Ecstatic eye of night
thoughts tangled tangent
tint of orange moon
slivers were just hazy
incipient learned launch
as the querulous quirk
indented ingress idly
still desperate to capture

Craving otherworldly Respite

...Crystal eyes gleam
at the prospect of
scintillating sapphire blush
gliding films of
wonder dilate bliss
driven lilac haze
spasmodic orbital earth
spinning obtuse lumen
tangents of night mist
...

Expresso Shot

...
“Expresso Shot”

He drank tibetan milk tea 
from his saucer
like a cloistered munk 

his conversation 
was hushed and tinctured 
with fountains of try-too-hard satire 
...

How Do I Feel

...Feelings are those seismic ocean waves,
they capture evanescent moments,
a Jack-o-lantern thought which might vanish,
deep breath of ink blue laden vortex,

elat...

The Sleeper and the Supernaturalist

"The Sleeper and The Supernaturalist"

shone as she walked 
through the Woods

shining alive 
like nothing
natural could

caught 
in the moonlight

Amor Litteras In Antiquis - the Old Love Letter

...Velvet paper tinctured pink,
A red rose at its crest;
The whittled feather, bathed in ink,
Set to bare its best.
A lambent candle close at hand
With dancing, flitting flare;
Where evening trans...

Holy Glorious To the Highest Praise Hail Hallelujah

...HOLY GLORIOUS TO THE HIGHEST PRAISE HAIL HALLELUJAH

Much I marveled
The spiritual doxology
The sacred sobbing
Holy! Glorious I rejoiced I, Yes We Holy-Holy

HOLY GLORIOUS TO THE H...

The River

...A canal, far away,
was built many years ago 
for the ships' passage

between two oceans. 
A river, near me, slowly 
flows, floats the barges.

And, years ago, 
this dove- colored river 
was...

Colors of a Wintered Life

...Imbued rose colors
of birth. Sky tinted billowed
petals, junked. Florid

gardens, immaculate.
Scents of citrus heavens. Bloodshot
tinctured cotton

colors. Rubicund 
chalk crumbles, powders ...

War In the Distance Is Better

...This chair has chipped paint.     
Its shadow gangly 
in the light spilling through 
the window. A deep 
buttercup bisque steeps.

Through this stream, ember
motility of curdled 
cream seeps ...

Lovers Drink

...Tempting balm tonics reposed fantasist,
Panacea liquifies mirage views,
Crafts allusive lofts energies persist,
Twain heart's favor lips a desire to schmooze.

Elixir defines the gist of lov...

Wazobia Land

...WAZOBIA LAND
Choicelessly I appear
On a tinctured lopsided land
A land with the best brains
But with the least development
A land flowing with milk and honey
But her sons and daughters are kwas...
