Each moment of hope
a lifetime of despair
I starved on the empty plate
of my heart in disrepair
...
How should I act
you’re watching
do I need to care
you’re listening
...
Stumbling My Way
I feel a silent turbulence in a troubled head
of misting memories shedding darker mornings
...
My history a blur
an ordinary journey
on embattled terrain
my feeble heart
...
I miss a place
I’ve never been before
a place that’s
a part of me
...
What is happening here?
are you feeling
the exquisite tension of need?
unbearable tenderness –
...
Summer passions
sliding off melting sunlight
crisp browning leaves
Winter's warning
...
night sheds itself
searching for dawn
oceans roar
in a teardrop
...
As I think about retiring
my youth I think of rehiring
with its party nights and flirty days
tomorrow was a distant haze
...
had a dog
whose name was hog
had a cat
whose name was rat
...
