As I lay curled in grandmother’s arms;
dreaming intently of butterflies fluttering.
Scented fields bestowing pungent charms; 
where I envision honey bee wings a puttering.

Dreaming intently of butterflies fluttering;
weaving amid long blades of green grass.
Where I envision honey bee wings a puttering;
in the soft breeze that blows...

I was curled up 
with Shakespeare 
on frayed pages 
with dog ears

marveling
at the depth of words 
nuances read 
between lines 

knowing that 
many hands 
had turned 
the same pages 


reaching 
different conclusions 
and evoking 
myriads of emotion 

my fingers 
touched the spine 
shivering 
with history...

Today's a good one as I chuckle to myself
What could go wrong, am loved and in good health
On top of the world
My toes are curled
They point to the skies and my happiness swells

Her skin white, drained
Her expression dark, pained
Eyes staring out, completely blank
Hair lifeless, dank
Her fingers curled, still
In her mouth, a cyanide pill...

Curling keys . A fork of bees. Pan out to the thoughts of temperature. Radius unforeseen. Ten laughing giggling elves on a trout trampoline. Policing the avenues of river and stream. While external energies arrive on a moon beam.
 
Twenty-six copper kettles sit on a...

in the sweet echo of love,
       these moments in between, 
feel the melody of me  . . 
    let me slowly cradle around your song

We race through the night
Our minds intertwined
Brazen abandon
Our only design

We swoop through the air
Her fine feelers quiver
A shooting star flares
We gracefully whirl

My hands on her back
I feel her deep purr
Tingling my skin
And stirring her fur

I feel her thoughts
As she feels mine too
Full of mischief and...

I gaze into familar eyes
Washed they were in living lies

A lover's touch to blind the mind
Naive to one so inclined

Keys to heart all bent and broke
Weighted words that choke the throat

Flippant in fidelity
Bourban drink and stranger's fees

A love I thought we kept well fed
Lies at...

peaceful dreams in its warm lair
hibernating unaware
scent of hunter in the air…. 
fuzzy little bear

Masculine female
with little splats of femme 
I like the boy in you 
It's what got my attention
but your heart beats 
purely feminine 
your so unique
I I think I need a vitamin
to handle a dose of you and me
such intensity rarely exists 
in the heterosexual world
I'll...

The Cat

??Licking, Licking?
Grooming himself
?Licking licking
?Scratching himself
?Licking licking?
Pampering himself
?Licking, Licking
?Biting Himself?
Yeah, How Gorgeous!?
All curled Up?
On the purple velvety mink blanket...
