From the death throes of empty gas pumps...
I wander amidst a massive wasteland
where barren grocery shelves
lay exposed, open and void
sustenance morphs to what is easiest
something canned - this or that
snacks you never normally buy
but have become standard 'hurricane food'
rapidly checking off my precarious prep list
the humdrum of reality topples
into a surrealistic excursion
in search of the last package of D batteries
it makes for some stark discoveries
clearing this fog of dreadful anticipation
small...

just like that
over and over
i pled
i clawed and clawed
and i bled
until bloodied fingertips
were dripping with shame
i screamed and screamed
until choking on blame
i screamed
until screams
no longer came—
the phone rang,
from
s o m e w h e re
a voice
tried to explain
and just like that
my life

Dancing upon the brim of betterment (an ode)
sleep quietly circles
clingy essences
penetrate
through 4am silence
I feel it
how it pulls
tugging me back
quietly calling
through a shiver'd
caliginous recess
intimate moments
trudge along
slinking their way
down a periphery
where night and day
delicately dance
of tango-transcendent
dreamt dreams
into a solidity of
steamy want
slowly
senses lazy-stir
synapses begin to fire
arousing wits
yet...

course correcting a soul
vibrant colors
swirl into breathless whimsy
lush verdurous greens
moist from a kiss of rain,
grow ground up in a surround
aim willful penetration
into muggy tear kissed skies
jasmine vines
bend, sway and curl climb up
massive tree trunks
gnarling themselves
through fenced shrubbery
to peek fanciful fare
o' harvest my haggard heart!
lie it sweetly pon grassy hope
humming enticements
opening ethereal realms
listening
growing
awakening steadfast, strong...

The Perils Of Chopping Wood
Seeing your shoulders
flex beautiful
with each
crushing blow
activates something primal
I muffle a whine
[really, a growl]
draw a little blood
biting my
bottom lip
tastes like
desperation/anticipation
as I try
like hell
to
keep
my
clothes
on
slowly
senses
percolate
a return
I
look
down
at myself
notice
there's
nothing
but sunshine
sand
and
a telltale
smile

Nothing Did Compare
"It's been several hours now,
since you went away" ...
From the very first moment
my teenage self laid eyes upon
her fierce unapologetic beauty
I was immediately
mesmerized.
Forever changed.
It dawned on me, that if this
perfectly imperfect
romantic waif of an Irish lass
could challenge and rile up
long standing institutions
with her staunch convictions,
speaking out/up for what she believed in
unwittingly becoming
this hauntingly gorgeous voice—
A voice she didn't...
since you went away" ...

ANGER POEM

25th Jul 2023 11:32pm
A false pretense of sisterhood
With age comes wisdom,
maybe small relief
in unmooring harbored secrets
that help to ease into
a new plane
of existence
of being mindful
Personally, I try(hope) for
selflessness,
but am ok with
practicing generousity
of the smallest kind.
Striving for self improvement
while healing my own heart's wounded scars
Becoming lighter,
so grace is what flourishes,
while still giving my darkness
its own due time
I understand...

Hallucinogenic discoveries of perception and crescent moon desire
Torrid outlines
travel
medium to mountain high
intertwining shapes,
curvature of edges
pigments pop
where lustre births into awe
streaming asymmetrical allure
heavenly swaths
crease and fold
delineate every line
and smallest mark
patterns outlining perfection
Dreams temper themselves upon
participle and adjective;
kaleidoscopic kinesis-
from the ashes, rise and roar
masters, makers, lovers, thieves
culminating breaths,
frequencies incense intimacy
paint swaths of...

Righting The Rules
There's softness to the edges
where my desire for righteous pain
plays at the cusp of your patience
willingness, incarnate
Exploring boundaries is my pure release
a wormhole to wonderland
tumbling topsy turvy by design
realities of normal, being in the eye of the beholder
You, understand perfectly
Why I sometimes act like I do... with you
Why I crave your divine discipline
in our very particular way
reveling excitedly how it's only your
specific administering of,
which affects the deepest parts of me ...
where my desire for righteous pain
