I Think Too MuchI never wake up to silence,
It is as if my brain wakes up before I do–

I automatically think of the ways in which I could have...

Dangerous WordsMy bones can be broken by stones and sticks,
But cruel words can also get in their licks.
At times, it's more than bones that take a hit -
Other parts are vulnerable, I admit.
Sadly, words...

there are always a fewThere are always a few
Troublesome “tickl-ings “
Daringly darting
In somnambulant slumber
Shape shifting shadows
Mocking the moonlight
Creeping through the crevasses
Of literary limitation
Weeping with the whispering words
Subtlety suppressed by silence
Like mice they meander the mind
Seeking sustenance and satiation
Borrowed brown...

Who needs a PasswordThere seems
Much use
Of "This" as a catchall
For the appearances
Of nothing..or
Not This
Appearing as This...
So This seems to
Have a story behind
It..which may be
A password to the
Hidden catchall..
Yet..who needs a
Password..?...

Whispered Words
Whispered Words
Whispered words waft through the shadows,
spoken low by luscious lips;
tempting teases to the senses
spurred by Steele’s most steamy scripts.
Whispered words ‘neath weeping willows,
meekly veiled by midnight’s mist;
mentions of those magic moments,
luscious lips so lightly...

It's A Crafty Work!
Poetry is so very special
it has such an illuminating effect
grabbing one's heart so clear

Is There ---Memory
without language
Joy
without pain
Sight
without prescience
Deed
without claim
Truth
without compromise

Consuming FireLicking my wounds.
Recovering from the pain.
Is it supposed to
feel this way?
Empty, cold, and dejected.
Ashamed of not enjoying it.
Radiating heat filling me up
from my pelvic floor.
Somehow, I am wanting more.
More of the pain
without it there’s
no...

Moments Which Inspire Silence
Thick clouds of unanswered questions
eclipse the clear light thought to be seen.
Bewildered by election commentary again,
our ears quit as media opine.
Hearers' lack of response yields understanding,
'twas a vacant struggle just to be heard.
Hardened clay...

Dazzling Sunrise, Come QuicklyIf this increasing darkness conveys a fear not chided,
as ghostly shadows conspicuously confer mystery:
do I hide or firmly resist being threatened
by their miserable aspect of susceptibility?
Anxiety builds fret inside first slowly, then rapidly?
I squeeze and...
