Poet Introduction
Concision and Paradox are my weapons of choice. I'm a haiku fiend and an imagist.

POMO DANCER
Her soul is in the way
She dances
Slow above the fray
And chants
Inside the faintest
Smile
Moving hands with cloth
And guile
There is clapper
There is dirt
Her bare feet
Move in concert
Raising dust
What came before
Feel the drum
Inside the floor
She dances
Slow above the fray
And chants
Inside the faintest
Smile
Moving hands with cloth
And guile
There is clapper
There is dirt
Her bare feet
Move in concert
Raising dust
What came before
Feel the drum
Inside the floor

ONE YEAR IN
We are both begging
And commanding at the same time
And position
Acting not with fear
But wonder in the face
Of demolition
We had champagne
On our first date because our love
Is celebration
And still I find
You are a constantly occurring
Revelation
And commanding at the same time
And position
Acting not with fear
But wonder in the face
Of demolition
We had champagne
On our first date because our love
Is celebration
And still I find
You are a constantly occurring
Revelation

My pen is ready
To lay poetry on the
Walls of your downtown

You find a mango
And have only your fingers
There is no way
To enjoy her but messy
And have only your fingers
There is no way
To enjoy her but messy

Your love is like
Plant medicine
Unbound roots conspire
Let us in
Leaves blush with desire
Do take heed
Plant medicine
Is what I need
Plant medicine

Let us in
Leaves blush with desire
Do take heed

WE ARE OLD HABANA AND NEW DRESDEN
You stroll along my Malecón
Bass thumping from an alley
Muffled by decaying buildings
And the sea
My wandering eyes
Meander the clean avenues
Of your glittering German
Bloom of renewal
We exist this way
Hand in hand
Together and across the world
From each other
Bass thumping from an alley
Muffled by decaying buildings
And the sea
My wandering eyes
Meander the clean avenues
Of your glittering German
Bloom of renewal
We exist this way
Hand in hand
Together and across the world
From each other

I miss the firm
Pillow I have
At your house
And the way
Your skin feels
Under your blouse
Pillow I have
At your house
And the way
Your skin feels
Under your blouse

KITE STRING
On cotton kite string you and I
Dance with each other toward the sky
A bolt of lightning and a key
The power of your love shocks me
Dance with each other toward the sky
A bolt of lightning and a key
The power of your love shocks me

A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE
I don't understand how you take away my fears of being human and stuck on a one-way time trajectory
I can't fathom why things that bother me when I'm not with you cease to exist when I am floating in your wake
I'm lost to the notion that you fix anything that's broken- no, I am still my dented, cracked and repaired self
But to hold your delicate, determined fingers, to gently yet slightly desperately push our mouths together
To see you, to hear you, to feel you is to be alive in a different place a different time a different universe altogether
I can't fathom why things that bother me when I'm not with you cease to exist when I am floating in your wake
I'm lost to the notion that you fix anything that's broken- no, I am still my dented, cracked and repaired self
But to hold your delicate, determined fingers, to gently yet slightly desperately push our mouths together
To see you, to hear you, to feel you is to be alive in a different place a different time a different universe altogether

THE WOUNDED WEST
The sound of the wounded west
is a sad harmonica
and a singing guitar
with gravel in its throat

SOFT AND SWEET
Now I love my skin"
she says,
having turned it in-
to caramel sauce
I am a spoon
so I dig in
from lips to toes
soft and sweet gloss
