BloomThe flower blooms,
Petals unfurl,
A beacon of beauty,
Sometimes in a harsh world.
The poetic muse,
Takes flight on the breeze,
Words dance and shimmer,
Like leaves in the trees.
Ideas take root,
Branching and growing,

A Priori BluesLiving alone
in quantum space
vibrations
dually churn
Hiding behind
a simple rhyme
their essence
undiscerned
Turned into words
exposed at last
where time and
memory join
Feigning the praise
for something they’re not
disparaged
— and purloined

Zuni WindsShow me a man
without contradiction
I’ll show you

(Dreamsleep: May, 2024)
Darkness Reigns
Shunning the light
power hides
in the shadows
gathering allies
— proffering fear

I Am A POEtess BecauseHumanity has become rose tinted glass framed,
Darkness exists and has many names,
Madness drinks your poultice drives reason insane,
Dolorous bangs dirge started that waltz hand in skull with death,
The creaks are getting louder the scratches are...

Raining in summerOn this majestic month of May,
The clouds have conspired with the sun in a mist of golden gray,
Like a toxic forbidden love that fights to stay,
Wishing to birth magic yet creating an agonizing flurry...

I Think Too MuchI never wake up to silence,
It is as if my brain wakes up before I do–
I am already thinking before I can even comprehend it.
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...

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...
