POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Most of these things come out of nowhere. Like a word, a phrase, scent or even an old song or tv, movie... don’t forget “life events”... Some are to people no longer in my life. Muses, too.

Arctic Vortex
Gulf Stream pushed by
Polar cold down into dixieland
ice giants rome empty land and
lie in wait in urban canyons
feasting on the unprotected and
homeless alike

You,
The pacemaker that
Brought back the beat
To my heart

Gray Dream
Was it a nightmare?
A precognition?
Or just my many fears and anxieties working over time
Don’t know where we were but felt familiar
Was space between us
Filled with gray like fog but more solid surrounding us
Could feel people moving around me but not see them
You, me, together we paused
We locked eyes
Eyes filling with tears
I hoped they were ones of possibility
Not
As you turned around the Gray swallowed you whole
That was the night your messages were empty
A precognition?
Or just my many fears and anxieties working over time
Don’t know where we were but felt familiar
Was space between us
Filled with gray like fog but more solid surrounding us
Could feel people moving around me but not see them
You, me, together we paused
We locked eyes
Eyes filling with tears
I hoped they were ones of possibility
Not
As you turned around the Gray swallowed you whole
That was the night your messages were empty

Ice Giants
Artic votex
blowing poler winds
from the frozen gods
land of darkness
an ice giant lurking in
every polar blast of wind

Don’t
Don’t put me in the ground
Don’t put me on a shelf
Throw my ashes to the winds
Want to fly be free one last time
Don’t put me on a shelf
Throw my ashes to the winds
Want to fly be free one last time

Love lives on paper...
Look at all the books...
On just the subject
Love dies on paper...

words are useless
swirling in brain
teasing phrases flashing
laughing at me
as i try to catch them to paper

I hate my father for one thing
I’m an X in a Y world
Too,
I hate my mother for accepting such a seed
Together,
Both for not raising a mindless, helpless female
