POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I've written for many years now. On and off. To the level of one who does write on and off. I always come back to this wonderful art form. Here, to grow, share and enjoy the artistry of others.
Burned
Reaching up, getting burned.
Blisters boaster, letdown;
Though really, more is earned.
No greater a gain,
The employs of pain,
When one's love is spurned.
Armed then, with sage advice.
And a stronger constitution.
He carries with him, a new device;
All at once, to where he'd been,
Climbing up, where the air is thin.
His sole intent, that he, not be burned twice.
Blisters boaster, letdown;
Though really, more is earned.
No greater a gain,
The employs of pain,
When one's love is spurned.
Armed then, with sage advice.
And a stronger constitution.
He carries with him, a new device;
All at once, to where he'd been,
Climbing up, where the air is thin.
His sole intent, that he, not be burned twice.

Envy The Sun (To Of Envied The Sun)
The only thing foreign to me, is the language.
But we do well with a few phrases, & a smile.
I think you're beautiful.
The sun has done more than kiss you.
You've been held close, in it's embrace...........
Is it a sin, to of envied the sun?
But we do well with a few phrases, & a smile.

You've been held close, in it's embrace...........
Is it a sin, to of envied the sun?

An Ache
An ache that agonizes.
An ache that keeps me awake.
She fills me, with vibrant colors.
She draws me in.
She loved me first.
I didn't know.
She came to meet me.
I didn't show.
Uncertainty defines, she, & I. Or her & me.
I think too much about her.
What is there, outside of her?
So many things!
She's exciting
My world is black with her.
Black scribbles found all around me.
An ache that keeps me awake.
She fills me, with vibrant colors.
She draws me in.
She loved me first.

My world is black with her.
Black scribbles found all around me.

Cascading Cream
Cascading cream sits at the center of your vanilla spine.
My view, reminiscent of those, atop snow capped alpines.
Sweat falls, like raindrops, at the small of your back;
Riding, & sliding, gliding into black.
Our swaying shifts to a much slower cadence.
Leaving me to bask, in all your subdued radiance.
Now, slowly comes, the squeezing & easing out of.
So pleasing though the teasing, & being immersed, so deep inside your love.
The leftovers melt, onto us, like drift, after the snow.
So hard holding on, but even...

Night In El Salvador
I asked her to speak to me, in Spanish,
She said, "te deseo".
I said, "it's getting late",
"So don't translate"
Just kiss me, but in Spanish.
Take me to El Salvador, with your lips.
Tonight, let's visit your Divine Savior of The World, & make love, while the lights spin around us.
Take me to your Cathedral, and let's look at The Cupola together, while I stare at you in awe.
Let's stroll your Plazas, hand & hand, beneath the statues, that turn the night to gold.
Let's go to La...

Brevity
Don't view my brevity,
As simply curt.
Our love's longevity,
has been cut,
& I'm fleeing hurt.
But this path freeing,
Is being shut.

Passiflora Edulis (At Your Waist)
Of cocktails sweet,
Which of these, have I imbibed?
That when poured out, leave my tongue inscribed.
Passion fruits, by their taste,
Flowing plentiful, at your waist.
Passiflora edulis, I nurse upon your seed;
A healing balm, to enjoy, atop your own Gilead.
Purple passions pass through you, & also your rind.
I peel away at those layers, to free the nectar confined.
Do I sense, Granadilla, of a much sweeter flavor.
Your deeper cloying, is among those, my memory will long savor.
I've think I've eaten Maracuja, from your Brazil; ...

Gothic Eyes
Something hypnotic behind your cat eyes.
Intoxication comes with the drinking in of your dark stare.
A brown rum, your eyelids.
Pupils as deep as the apparent.
Somehow though, each blink, a penned note.
Acheronian lipstick, sitting mostly still.
Dual rings, adorn either side of your paint.
The only glimmer, the occasional, bouncing off of the tongue;
And still, hardly a sound passes.
Your face is largely against the sun;
With skin as pallid as dusk.
And somehow twice as stunning.
Her entire presence is night;

Nature Moving
One only waxes poetic,
Recounting nature's perfect kinetics.
Uses only immaculate phrasing,
To emphasise how amazing,
The stems, heavy hips.
The dropping of honey drips,
From the honeycomb,
That it's swaying whips.
The bee, hovers over, with power.
But gentle, goes into her flower.
The plosion of pollen.
What remains, the wind devours.
The cyrsos that conceals
A mirage that is real.
In flutters, her wings are spread,
A sensuous reveal
The Monarch, making love with The...
