The Shape of Mourning
by Michael R. Burch

on a locker
shielding memory,
the monthly penance
of flowers,
the annual wake,
the face in the...

Rejection Slip
by Michael R. Burch
Whenever my writing gets rejected,
I always wonder how the rejecter got elected.

With you, the twilight changes, wandering through the silent dreamsWith you, the twilight changes, wandering through the silent dreams,
With you, destiny wanders, hopes and promised goals.

Hostages to the droplets of waves and kings over...

Musings At Giza, EgyptMusings at Giza, Egypt
by Michael R. Burch
In deepening pools of shadows lies
the Sphinx, and men still fear his eyes.
Though centuries have passed, he waits.
Egyptians gather at the gates.
Great pyramids, the looted tombs
—how still and desolate...

O witless quill

galloping black stallions, see them fall
shiny armour felled knights
and petulant proud Queens now all shiny amour, in their saddles riding

Lost Love Deliria - Part 3 Part 3
9th Delerium: Emptyness
Water wheels in wastelands... turning,
drowning relics in the slum
Rumpled rags of fashioned burlap... burning,
lit by bandits blind and dumb
Pastured prisons, ponies bridled ... yearning,
forest fairies under thumb
Sounds inside of cauldrons coughing......

Christian dualistic church
dividing sinful nature

about this mix
of sacred and profane
if he were to...

the unlit shadows
love wanting always stays
driving all
the dark stallions
towards heaven

Those Lowly EntelechiesImpeccant,

one’s covered flesh,
and hidden embrasure’
as diffusate primer
slips life’s veil, and
in agitated pontlevis,
cleaves the universe’ reason…
