Charles Lara Poems

13’’ - Black and White TV
in the 70’s
when everybody else had color
and the brady’s were on channel 7
...

Old Days

In your mouth
I melt
...

THE WALLS
NEVER FALL
AND SLEEP
NEVER COMES
...

Happy summer days
lazy afternoons
playful rapture
with the little one
...

Wet
dark
deep
unrelenting
...

Record the night
as it passes on to
a new day
of never ending
...

Our youth aged like
summer flies tasting autumn
before the first frost
sitting under radiators
...

I stood in the living room
near the decorated tree
as a steady snow danced
outside the windows.
...

Home is where
I can’t be found
where madness
frolics during
...

Wonderful
full lost wonder
of what we use to be
before the cotton mended
...
