Trimmed Poems

The blank black page

...I'm a blank page,
that's been bleached,
and seen in ages
and here or feared.
I'm not anyone
a something,
just I  hope to begin,
I hate society's fun,
Its not entertaining.....

Its not anyt...

Autumn's Russet Leaves

...Autumn's breeze teases the last russet leaves
clinging to branches with their golden fingers.
Seasonal change awakens Mother Nature's thieves,
a wildly wafting zephyr that doggedly lin...

Ashes To Resilience

...
I was born in the smoke of silence,  
where names were weapons,  
and love came laced with barbed wire.  

They said I was too much,  
too loud, too raw,  
a wildfire in a world of trimmed he...

Mother Bird Star Warmth

...Seems so surreal...billions of beings
held in place by invisible forces 
atop a giant spinning orb
dependent on the charity of
mother bird's star warmth.

It's a golden time for earth and manki...

Midsummer Night

...
Standing watch on this warm summer night  

Listening to sounds in the soft spectral light 

Calling to my soul a song never-ending 

That the spirits of the dead forever are sending

Flower Chide VII, Pokenose

...Caelith pulsed in the starless seam,
No warmth, just orbit, cold with gleam.
“Equality is just a myth,” it sighed,
“And safety, merely a dreamleaf dried.
A lull to cradle wilt and thrall,
For le...

Without Mirrors

...He forgot
how his jaw
used to stretch
in loud laughter.

No mirrors
to watch his days—
just windows,
and distant eyes.

His beard trimmed
by finger’s feel,
a chunk missed
Here and there....

The Color Brave

...In a sea full of green, so wide and still,
Where every leaf leans to the wind’s will,
They whisper the rules in rustling tones,
“Grow alike, sway alike, don’t stand alone.”

But somewhere beneat...

Bright Chapeau

...Life is a heavy hat,
we wear it, and we learn to bear it,
as we age the debris grows,
bright chapeau that once was trimmed with flowers
attains a brim of dirty crows, that peck and eat our dreams...

Sparingly Topped

...To start with I part it and sweep each side back
Tucked over each ear is this guy’s hairstyle hack
Brynner and Willis and Johnson are cool
But I keep my hair on… I’m nobody’s fool

Bald suits so...

Dark Female High School Secrets

...
In hallways hushed with painted lies,
They glide like ghosts in silken skin—
Their secrets shimmer in their eyes,
Too delicate to hold within.

Barby Doll smiles with perfect grace,
Behind it...

It’s Coming

...Computers computing have pinpointed here
This planet, it seems, has something to fear
I look to the skies and they’re beautiful…… now
The stars are quite static, yet I mop my brow

A spacecraft ...

Field of Thorns

...While walking with intrusion upon the light of morn
I stumbled across a field of thorns
The ghastly things were everywhere
Standing erect and poised without a care

The field was devoid of other...

The Gas Station Paradox

...
A woman at the gas station
is unremarkable besides
her name tag reading Clarity 
and her teeth, saying never mind. 

She asks if I need a receipt. 
I say no, like I'm not collecting
evidence...

...They long to be catered, treated, and trimmed.
They are like mortals hungry for manicures;
Like house pets pleading to be petted.
