Tears for Roses
Ghost of a Rose
I reminded you of
today ghosts and roses
reminds me of us
our dreams and wishes
ending on a day
dated today when blossoms
bled into the ground
you left alone
embracing the skies
so blue
where I was
you're gone to where red roses smile
I'm a ghost wandering like gossamer
following you trying to see
over the veils of a perfect landscape
This date of any months
of any years
the number eighteen
spells Pain.

More Tears
tears of sadness
tears of grief
for one who left
and didn't return
shed from eyes
turned inwards
looking at heart walls
of old photographs
I need no chants of loss to hear
or mono dirges from old scars
no more soggy handkerchiefs
to wipe the wetness spilled
yet I stand here still
weaving the tapestry
of us, started years ago
loose strands yet to knot.

the ease of casting stones
how do you shine?
Is if from
trial and error
repeating days
gone by and bye
stitched of a patchwork hope
impressed
embossed
and engraved
glittering
of righteous starlight
(the kind, only [day]dreamt)
found betwixt
hymns and chants
from light to dark
tenderly reflecting
bouncing back
sparkling
ardent truth
from a born essence
of where real beauty
raises it's lovely eyes
and validation
finally finds
it's place....
to forever
openly dazzle

-o-2-o-
I don’t know where last week went
or several before it,
or where my insides are gone
or how long it takes to smother
something
make it a fleeting thought
-o-1-o-
If they come
I’ll leave through the window
I know exactly where to go from there
it’ll be barefoot and hairy legged
but I’ll take the adrenaline
any day of a long week

Ghost
she is a ghost
haunting an empty house
she is a spectre
standing by closed curtains
she counts minutes
by the ticking clock
breathing slowly
listening for sounds
in the quiet silence
watching
floating dusts....

(NoPoo 282) Bruised State
in these hands
is a heart
tied up with bruises
i offer it
willingly
knowing it’s pain
night reverberate
it’s ripple of love
is so much stronger
for you
in the scheme
of gods and men
it may seem
such a solitary drip
in an ocean of hearts
but it’s mine
if you saw
it’s potential to love
you Might accept
it’s bruised state

The beauty of boldness
First—
distinct sounds
arouse
curiosity peeks
from under
hooded eyes
Senses flicker
signaling a body's
autonomic response
of
dire potent need
Warming anticipation
leads to lack
of impulse control
and a willingness
to completely succumb
Feelings multiply
O' the sweet intensity
divine depths
of boldness
how it makes me feel
exceptional
unsurpassed
, as dark colors swirl
past my lips
over my tongue
and I consume
all of you.

It's about freedom...
Warm sheets out of the dryer
That first cool breeze,
after months of sticky heat
Driving along, in a groove
to the perfect driving song
When salty mixes just right with sweet
Laying upon fresh cut grass
Puppy breath
People watching in the airport
The plane landing
in a place I've never been before
Roses that are self grown
Writing a poem that I'm extremely proud of
Good stretching of tired muscles
Happy memories of my father
Doing somersaults in the pool
Striving for social justice
and caring enough to be civically engaged
Waterfalls
Rainbows
The smell of ozone
That hint of new love blossoming
Really really good sushi
My favorite jeans
Breathing in salty beach air
with my feet dipped into the ocean
Being brave and knowing what courage is
Walking in the rain
Finding words, when before there were none
Movie theater butter popcorn
Rootbeer floats
The perfect kiss in the perfect place
Singing in tune
The colors blue, purple, red and black
Fresh cut pine
Binging an entire Netflix series
Birds that nest in my backyard
and their squirrel counterparts
Soft but firm pillows
Masculinity when it's sexy, not chauvinistic
Cosplay
Halloween
Horror movies
Anything zombie
Hiking in nature
Picturesque old weeping willow trees
Visiting museums and being lost in gorgeous art
Surrealism
Cats that play in boxes or ride the Roomba
Facials and manicures
The perfect haircut
That first spray of Ralph Lauren's Romance,
in Eau des toilette
The scale reflecting lbs lost
Chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven
A long hot shower
Deep tissue massages
The phone ringing and it's you calling
Knowing that real goodness is innate
and it's true humility that begets true grace
and sometimes,
What is loved the most and hoped for,
can pale in comparison....
To all that IS stark freedom
