The Architect of Morning

...What if dawn delays at my pane,
Fearing dreams too long displaced?
I send my shadow down the lane—
It knows the streets I’ve never faced.

My homeland breathes in mother’s tea,
Its edges traced...

Muse

...
In the mirror I see, framed like a painting
a woman caught between 
the plain in yesterday
and the pointy yellow leaves
leaving for tomorrow—
She chases the leaves, not realizing
she never le...

Mindscapes

...
A deep pit with a crumbling edge.
Far below,
is a muddy pool swarming with crocodilians.
There is someone with me, a boy.
I shouldn't have taken the child here.

I am slipping, taking...

Yesterday’s Wishes

...Back when girlish daydreams 
rode the ether like coal-glowy-clouds
my featly feet kept a beat in spring grass 
as I flounced with Romany winds—
breezy-gypsy-lips brushed my cheek 
as I whirled i...

Writing Journeys

...In the quiet hum of the screen’s glow,
fingers dance, tapping keys,
each touch a spark, a ripple in time.

I am filled and emptied,
a vessel for voices long silent,
echoes of dreams, shadows of...

Edges of a Dream

...The quiet peace where webs of sleep enrapture,
in twilight thought - the precipice of dreaming.
It's there, the unmapped thresholds of conception
begin to splay within a sultry slumber
the embryo...

The Musty Halls of Our Endeavors

...Open the clasped and ancient doors!
There are mountains of footage
to peruse.
Thousands of long years to sift through.
Who did what or who did nothing
are of great import - apparently.

Who wa...

Terra Incognita

...Terra Incognita 

Hidden!
Uncharted eternity birthing
Roiling! 
In a slow dance
The pregnant pause of terra’s faults
 Breaks o p e n 
   In slip strikes
Earth’s fiery magma
Spit back into t...

Terra Incognita

...
"Life is either daring adventure or nothing at all." 

                                                 Quote by _Helen Keller 

I would like to be an adventurer,
     and...

For Oscar On His 10th Birthday

...Child of sun and sky, child of isle and sea,
  the moon and stars to light my earthly trail -
his the taken road, the unmapped journey,
  his the unwritten Oscarian tale!
When beyond mortal y...

My Witness

...Got into that a mirage
Unmapped in all its grounds
Where no lifeline could exist
Cautious distrust kicking in
An area where sorrows spread
That the beings had spoonfed
A stipulation of a well-c...

The Pearl In My Hand

...Sailing in a ship,
To the round trip, 
With a pearl in my hand, 
Leaving behind the sand,
Looking at the prussian blues, 
Lead taken by the airs,
Watching the salty drift,
Needle-less compass ...

Sharpest Peaks, Body But Half Decayed

...Coldest mountains, sharpest peaks
Lonely, quiet there does lie
A better end it still seeks
Body under light blue sky

Its corpse has flown far and wide
Glassy eyes and foggy skin
Tumbling thro...

Fire and Wind

...A land of destruction 
With unmapped sense of direction 
Fire set with singular flames 
Powerful wind gone untamed 
Mother nature's worst possession...

The Hinterland

...Democracy devolves into tyranny, Plato cautioned.

Blinded by the prevarication of public discourse.
Numbed by the ...
