Night wanders in
And coils around my leg-
Meowing up at me, to
Scratch it's back-
...
The wind blows cold outside
Yet it is warm inside
Inside me as well
I cannot let the wind creep
...
There are no secrets here,
That’s what was said to me
In the darkness, in the pathway
In the hidden places along the way.
...
Trouble lies yonder
I dare not go and see
To whom the blow is struck
For it could turn out to be me.
...
Nobody had to tell me
Never to invite my friends home
Never raise my voice
Don’t turn on the lights
...
Poetry is nonsense.
Yet I pass it around
As if it was the
Finest caviar
...
Top Thought says
To take the Money and run–
Like the rich folks say
Before they twitch their
...
Almost heaven, almost hell–
Peace pushed back against the pell.
Summer makes for covered bars
Tender bellies, and crushed root tars.
...
Rumm of the lawnmower
As Daddy combs the grass
Up straight. Lemonade
In tall cold glasses
...
I was a forgotten child
With nothing much -
In me.
To give.
