The Gallery
I find refuge
among those who dare
to sculpt a blank landscape
into mounds and crevices;
inclinations formed
in conjured fantasies
beckoning us
to travel this geography,
to part the curtain
and absorb these divulgences;
a curiosity drenched.

Barbara Bush
I admired her spirit and moxie
Though not a fan of Republican issues
Tough as nails she was
A loss, plain and simple

the coffee houses of old london ..
addison and steele were
debaters, conversationalists,
great writers, undoubtedly wits
to the day they died.
and die they did, although it's
coffee houses their secrets ..

Dreams as darkened circles around the eyes
I will gladly be the inept rider
building on mistakes.
you be the stalled hoof,
throwing innocents to their deaths
just before the finish line.

Synchronized Hope
I remember,
A precious hours, minutes and seconds
I remember,
A tender talk
Since the day
I first saw you
I feel reflection of my mom
Silent, kind and sensible
The same day,
I wished for togetherness.

Risen
Awash in chaos
Swallowed
By primordial waves
Hallowed
In her I wallow
With an inky mass
That now follows
In abyssal depths
That swallowed
And swallowed
And swallowed
And swallowed
Swallowed
By primordial waves
Hallowed
In her I wallow
With an inky mass
That now follows
In abyssal depths
That swallowed
And swallowed
And swallowed
And swallowed

nothing like Mona Lisa
she smiled wryly into her fingers
&mouthed the words
she would never say aloud

Talking about the Weather
It's a safe topic
Benign mostly
It's cold today
Don't forget your scarf
Hat too
"Okay"
