Rainbow words.
Sunset brings her clients.
Blue bed, cover the Virgin,
Light a candle, false moaning and
Rainbow words to meaning less questions.
Tonight . . .

I miss what i had before. I miss when I saw you even more. Where you we here and i was near. When it was just an everyday thing, when we would go to chorus and do more than sing. I miss those very akward . . .

Found a shriveled black thing
under the bed
while vacuuming today.
Gingerly picked it up.
Humph, I puffed. An apple
and all the time I thought
that sickly, sweet smell
was love.

present me with a new hand
before I can act on the old.
It's conch to jellyfish low
when my ante
disappears with a bubble
down the gullet of a clam.
Damn ocean . . .

wind lifts, skies darken , leaves to yellow,
white sand memories of kicking foam,
and the tides rush in, crashing sandcastles
we built when you were small;
we made mountains, . . .

I didn't think I wanted you
Didn't think I needed to
What makes me hold back,
What makes me afraid--
I might fall for you--
And then what would I do,
If one day . . .

Two wide
This bed of mine
Half empty without you
Warm side, my side, cold side, your side
Can I forgive you leaving me alone?
Strong one, mine was, weak one, yours . . .

She steps into the window.
caught on the edge of what is, is not,
she pauses: police cars speed to stop: blood on the sidewalk,
framed by lifeless . . .

If inside me were a city
With buildings made of words
Then love would be the lava
That buries them unheard
I know you want an answer
When you ask me how I feel

Woke up
Distant, dreamy
Dark blended illusion
Creamy low fat café latte

Restless
Fingers fidget
Up and down, walk around
Sit and stare while click-clack keys write
Rubbish

Walking
One foot forward
Eye to toe, toe to ground
Wind caresses sun touches cheek
Step stepping into the moment; breathe, breathe
Deer lifts its head, looks, rabbit runs
Crow flies . . .

Mind the other
Wise words will win at last
Time comes too late to hinder death
Bed soft and welcome warm against the cold
Blooded killer wind weathered . . .

Looking up at you
Looking down
Looking through
All I'm trying to do
Is talk to you
Some call me
An old soul
It's just that I can't say
What's . . .

The sea, . . .

Icy
Glacier calving
Blue birds white wings melting
As they dive down into the sea
Clouds part winds drop howling currents calling
Follow me to warmer waters
Blind to fate . . .
