Poet Introduction
A poetess? I shall leave that determination to others.
One Big Bowl Of Stew
Oh!.........What a delight that would be.
A multitude of vibrate colors, immersed
in a broth enriched by the flavorful tastes from which each grew.
Ingredients, not assimilated, each loosing it's own
unique contribution, only integrated, lending it's attributes
so as to benefit the blend.
Seasoned with the best qualities of each.
If only we would create such a feast, no one would go hungry again.

In The Not-So-Still Of The Night

Through my window, Sneaky, Creepy Lee
Mesmerized by Peaky, Leaky me.

Death, Our Only Destiny?
Kill the guardians
fuck nature out of kilter
up to our ass in
our own humanity?
Perhaps from the darkness
an earth shattering event
savior from ourselves
Maybe the dinosaurs got off easy.

The Ring
The wedding ring,
symbol of love given,
whether a plain band
or encrusted with the
finest diamonds.
To be worn on the 3rd finger
of the left hand.
Not
between the nostrils.

Vindictiveness Within Vandettas
Hateful reaction
to another's deeds.
reveal more about oneself
than the recipient.

Normally when an inspiration for a poem hits me, I write it down. However, this time I couldn't decide on which direction to go, so, I went with a few different ones.

Really? Sadly, Yes.

TV tuned to BBC America, "Blue Plant II", as I read poems here on DU.
A fish that picks up and spits a shell into a harden coral repeatedly, until the shell shatters and the creature within is exposed and eaten.
It is then I remember a wild crow, being shown making a hook at the end of a stick, and then using the stick to retrieve grubs from a hole in a tree.
Sea Otters, pounding clams against a rock on their stomach while floating on their back, in order to open the shell. Not just any old rock, but one especially chosen for the task.

Open Letter To My Children
I nurtured you from infancy
sang you lullabies
showed you the path
harmony with all things
tried reaching you
with abundant beauty
to calm and sooth
your tortured soul
yet in return you
shred the heart of me
fouling life giving blood
and ravage my gifts
I weep acid tears
they fall toxic
eating away at my being
a shadow of the before
you tell me how much you care
while tearing into my flesh
choking me in polluted air
taking pleasure...

Desert of Despair
When heads are swallowed by the sands of apathy,
the oasis of human kindness becomes but a mirage,
and all are destined to drift upon arid land, void of
brotherly love, and thirsting for the taste of sweet water,
a memory of what once was.
**Note...My appreciation to Taryn for bringing a spelling error to my attention.
Thank You dear poetess. AT

Sorry For The Interruption, butt
From time to time, shit just happens,
and my Smart Phone?, deserves a slappin'
for after all, if I had my druthers
it'd not let my ass..... call another.
