Poet Introduction
Subtle use of language and metaphors exemplify the range of human emotions. Displaying in "word" that which cannot be seen by the eye is true poetry.
More Meltingly Composed Than Liquid Fire
Her passion's voice more meltingly composed
than liquid fire, soft words boiling over
too hot for flesh to bear; mesmerizing,
coming near, dancing slowly on her smile
waltzing flames touching lips, sweat, desire;
in this age, in this time, I am to live
through the blaze, heart in hand, her love to give.

Blue Sea Whales
Deep shadow forcing rippled surface wake;
defying gravity great blow ships sail,
leaping open water turn sideways break,
splash monolithic lunging blue sea whales.
Whales song ping chords oceanic serenade,
mates hear shrill bare raspy choral rounds,
notes long loud song orchestral thoughts pervade,
clasp hearts fins dart strumming tonal sounds
receding home exposing lone willfulness;
behemoth strength, unnerving length, fanning tail
inspiring dreams, mammoth scenes peacefulness,
retiring sun, peripheral moonlit ...

Freakish Moon
Unleashing my soul, victim, I am doom!
Unease persists; raw nerves duel deep inside,
coward sun fails, breeds blood lust freakish moon
glowering bares upheaval in my eyes.
Complete infusion splits apart my being,
cellular sieges, changeling's pain inbred
bows curving spine, intent on savage mien
redressing process, wolflike drooling head.
Incessant chain convulsions molt in rage,
ancestral blueprints, hellish DNA,
salacious bites old evils gouge the grave
hateful moon, your destructive lunar rays.

Stealth Of Your Kiss
It is in what is small,
what is least about you,
what is recessed,
what is channeled
that harbors your greatest strengths.
You animate me
when each small part of you comes alive.
You are everything I have known
and desired a woman to be.
The compactness of your beauty;
the grace and economy of your movements;
the latitude of your smile;
the utility of your soul.
Hands of warm clay
molded to mine.
The scented breeze of your hair
purifying me.
The solitary sadness in...

To Love And Be Loved By You
How long shall I wallow in lesser truths
to mend this trembling heart, too frail to touch,
my words are weak and lack a steely proof
that must risk all when all is not enough.
What great lessons in and of yourself teach
embroidered by passion and all that is good,
I drop this letter at your virtuous feet
for you have graced the path of womanhood.
Commence then in my mind a strong belief
tempered by the trials of fortitude,
each moment atones, surmounts my grief,
while I strive to love and be loved by you.

Poetry, The Flowing Outreach Of Her Rhyme
Her strong voice unbridled, now quietness
express, silence more bountiful than time;
upon her lips my hopes will surely rest
to taste the flowing outreach of her rhyme.
Words and visions in my deep dreams remake
were these worlds not created by us both,
enormity of beauty our minds did shape
a beacon for the lonely and the lost.

Spectral Verses, IX, Conceptual realm of beginning
In the conceptual realm of beginning
where my spirit is dispelled by the light
forced through the canal of awakening
I will breathe my next breath of life.
By the pangs of my birth’s separation
where my being is renewed in the flesh
worldly base to divine aspiration
I wander unable to rest.
Empirical voids comprise the heavens;
multitudinous suns burn out and restart,
I will share their fate for millennium
through the finite beats of my heart.
On the cleft of divine intervention
between marrow and...

Pageantry Of Being
When in summer the gilded days did frame
the seeds of life, the handsome blooms that dwell
in flowering youth, beauty loathe to tame
that which strives to their highest form excel;
so sweet, let not the slightest chill deface
the fragile blush that scents the breeze serene
nor hoary frost abounding in its haste
dare to still the pageantry of being.
Life coerced by time's complacency
thirsting each second and grander hour
and all that lived must then forever be
remade in ways beauty once empowered.

Venus In Scorpio Rising
Mars the warrior denied by Venus
in the first house of Scorpio rising
allies convivial Mercury thus
savaging plotting her total demise
in the third house cowering from the Sun.
Saturn touched by the aura of her glow
patiently waits near the cusp of her light
preparing his heart for the javelins throw
using his rings to assuage her fright
knowing strength could never win Mars her love.

Regal Tigress Delighted Purr
Mounting waves in delicious enticement
do you await your mariner's return
saturated with salt spray, ocean breath,
will the Regal Tigress delighted purr
beneath the scorched lines of my craving pores;
yet, your hungry touch all my mind resists
where you lie open devouring my flesh
through the passing of lust's ferocious door
unmerciless is her first savage kiss
enjoining separate oceans, drowning gasping lips.

Wind Of The North
Wind of the North! That shuddering blast has hung
on your crusty brow cursing as you scream;
bemoaning the fall of winter with your lungs,
blow your dogged breaths while they still sting,
your bite is less forbidding in the spring.
From in the April clouds the raindrops peek
no longer fearing your wild meanderings,
a gentler breeze has roused them to their feet
that bathes the open flowers and dries them while they sleep.

Sin Has No Place In Pastoral Settings
Containing you in words was that my goal?
Sizing you to fit what space I had to give?
Writing each small part of you
did I lose the whole?
Describing your structural elements,
the body of my text
neatly ordered and composed
effected with a loose style,
stoic; yet, rigidly controlled.
You were to be the idyllic poem
supple and flexible as speech
with a rising and falling rhythm all your own.
What is significant is that to each
expanding layer of thought
I press inward for the answers
