a wave of cold in a hot summer
When I go to sleep
at night and the
window of my room
is open, a little moonlight
falls on my sheet, and
you are the coolness
that hides in the moonlight,
you are the beautiful white
dream that the black
night brings for all,
When I wake up
in the morning,
a ray of light falls
back on the sheet,
and that ray of light
is you, the ray that
brings the feeling of
your presence,
that brings a beautiful
start of the day,
I don't love high
mountains,
I love moving clouds,
in which birds fly freely
and in which human
desire is to fly forever
and you are that cloud
that flows slowly
the one that is calm
the one that supports
others,
When my eyes open
in the morning and
a sweet smile comes
on my face, you are
thet deep ocean
full of that smile,
in which there is
boundless love,
one who is full
of wisdom,
in whom there is
no deceit, in whose
life waves flow
peacefully,
when I stand at
the window and
then the gust of
wind creates ripples
in the body, you are
that wind, who has
positivity, who does
not bring storm,
who is someone's
support, who has a
wonderful tunes flow.

she is tender flow
embraced by one thousand worlds
virtuous wisdom
a teacher sharer
in concise dialog small
larger than life thoughtfulness
procurer of thoughts
soft or sharp deep with meaning
a reflective pool
syllables gathered
with so much delicateness
in curious ease
she is light and fire
offering honesty kind
friend among poets
she brightens the page
with her creativity
warm honey sunshine
blessed with her presence
when she finds the time to share
her beautiful mind
in shortened verses
her stories are unfolded
tapestries of life
heartfelt novellas
deeply rooted in spirit
laid bare in ink strokes
a gilded flower
being, grace personified
master of haiku

Untitled X
I think it’s fitting
that he gets the X spot.
A man of few but very
well chosen words, he never
fails to bring it BIG.
If he’s not throwing down
tough New Yorker attitude,
he’s entrancing us with
phenomenal works of art.
If you aren’t acquainted
with the rouge, the cowboy,
the long-standing essence
of all things good in the
Deep Underground, you should be.
A million pretenders could
attempt to imitate, but there
is only one PoetSpeak.

Birdie
my white bird has angel wings
and flies with me
always making me happy
always bringing light
to my shadows
my blue bird is powerful
as an eagle should be
my bird is careful
as any bird can be
my pink bird sings me the day
brings me the night
nesting me in the midnight sun
my light bird keeps lending
his wings to my words
sitting on the tips of my fingers
sitting on the paper sheet
drawing sounds that become
the center of my galaxy
my black bird shares infinity
with my sensorial perception...

A Pseudo-Sapphic for Lady Betty
I picture her sweating into her armor;
a stainless steel chain mail bikini
on a body that's a boner charmer...
most athletically!
Her super power is to empower cock
to have sceptered love on its fullest display
and as hard as an Olympian block...
stuck up in her way...
which she handles with a renaissance aplomb
or like an Amazon's full hilt battle sword
whose grip is ready to go off like a bomb...
as a thick reward!
Soon her superpower kicks into gear
when she fondles that cock like Aladdin's lamp
transmuting droop into a cervical spear...
looking for a clamp...
and there it sheens betwixt her vigorous thighs;
a vise to cram ludic munitions in place
keeping ejaculate from swamping her eyes...
or painting her face!
Her cavalier boots go up past her knees
so that she might fellate upon asphalt or rocks
or to facilitate an improv strip tease...
most unorthodox!
Blythe, lithe, and svelte, she high octane undulates
and all full blooded cocks helplessly obey
her hard core oral ensorcellation traits...
milking balls gourmet!
So bon vivant she is of men's emissions,
that she has seen fit to jot literary
the glory of her sexual commissions...
rather sanguinary!

To whom I’ve never met
Before my own friend
left this world, left his shirt
hanging on the dresser,
he told me I’d been nothing
but a positive in his life
I allowed it
as death ate his bones
and there lingered
a strange absence
with no earthly place to go.
I think
on those words often
how they arrived
unannounced
soothing something
in us both.
Sometimes
I think of our time
in this curious place,
realising that all of us
are but momentary
and I echo
what he said
that day, that you
have been nothing
but light through
these years
loyal where it matters,
concerned where it counts.
I could write
a thousand words of thanks,
but none would mean more
than myself showing up
as broken as I am
knowing something
in you is broken too
sending it hope
in return.
