A spiritual entrainment levees,
spawning entropic cascades in its wake,
a logarithmic landscape ossifies,
effulgent among its tutelary scarps.

The Mirror

I smiled in the mirror this morning,
She gestured back with grace,
...
Song of Silence
- - - - - - - - - - -
Today I felt alone,
With so many friends to sing along.
...
I just drank some amber spirits,
that burn with fossil nostalgia,
encumber with humdrum to long a child,
purged from a fertile womb.
...
What started with a smile ended with a shovel,
so I thought.
Fifty years later behind the church,
Where the hurly-burly began.
...
The echos of the heartland call me back,
to those fields of wild rice lining the horizon.
For they sway in the distance awaiting the harvest,
still in the silence of night.

Standing before your deliberating presence,
...
Rose of incessant color,
Where have your petals gone?
Withered with floral acumen,
doused in florid wine.
