POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have never seen myself as a poet, but the words are scattered across my mind like Autumn leaves soaked and decaying on a late winter morn. I need to clear the corners of my skull, the piles have become too deep to keep inside.
Life is too heavy for me
I never do anything right. I don’t know how to I guess. Something in me must not be built right. I step forward with the best of intentions and fail so miserably. My face in the mud and damaged and broken people in my wake. I should know better than to try and live amongst the world. I was broken too badly so long ago to know how to treat anyone correctly. I think this life may be too heavy for me. No matter where I think I have risen to, it brings me back down. Time to leave.

Days of Love
Coffee aroma
Morning cuddles start the day
Breakfast on the couch
Sun brightens the day
Lovely smiles lighten my soul
Picnics meant for two
Romantic dinner
Candles twinkle before us
My heart joined with you
Lying in your arms
Breaths synced while we are sleeping
Spooning with my love
This age is for us
A life spent in devotion
Hearts tied together
Morning cuddles start the day
Breakfast on the couch
Sun brightens the day
Lovely smiles lighten my soul
Picnics meant for two
Romantic dinner
Candles twinkle before us
My heart joined with you
Lying in your arms
Breaths synced while we are sleeping
Spooning with my love
This age is for us
A life spent in devotion
Hearts tied together

Disconnected
No one sees me,
I move through this world
a ghost.
My invisibility
of my own making,
humble,
introverted,
unassuming.
Steps
leaving no markings
of my passage.
My meals taken
in solitary confinement.
My fellow employees
less than acquaintances,
me a paper cut out
on the wall.
Even in the bright lights
of day
I am the shadow
on the ground.
Totally disconnected
from the house
I live in.
At night
I...

Unpoetry
Colloquies skittering
across the frying pan
of my mind.
Ideas bouncing
in my consciousness
like toes bared to the sand
in the Mojave sun.
The speech of my tongue
uselessly searching for thoughts
hiding in the confines of my head
My little words
trying to communicate
large ideas
beyond my understanding.
All my trying
to piece together
the ins and outs of a conversation
fall short of my intentions.
I try and try
but all my efforts
fall short of true...

I am Hers
My mind is hers,
I grant it to her
so we can learn
the special dreams we share.
My body is hers,
I give it to her
and protect her
from the predators of the night.
My heart is hers,
she carries it close
and cherishes it
every moment of the day.
My soul is hers,
she wears it
as a cloak to shelter her
from the wind and the rain.
My life is hers,
I lay it at her feet,
promising it to her
in this life and the next.

Help
Trying to help my love
She struggles with the unknown
Not sure what she needs
Threats of driving there
Pushing for the right results
Things like they should be
Time stands still for us
Waiting to see what happens
When will answers come

Electric Kisses
They tour her
secret garden,
the places she shares
with no one else.
Then
after the meeting
of their dreams,
comes the consummation.
Tender touches
send electric kisses
through her nerves.
His hands exploring
the ins and outs
of all her curves.
He plays her
like
a fine tuned piano,
knowing just the melody
that makes her body
hum and thrum.
Sensuous movements,
like Rumba dancers,
their steps of love
binding them as one. ...

An angel’s voice
Her voice
slid right through me,
laying me bared
to my core.
Silken softness
whispering in my ears,
reverberating
down my spine.
I shivered
uncontrollably,
her wrapping my soul
in her melodies.
How could I
have spent my life
never knowing
this sweet siren’s song?
She continued
to ravish me
with the honeyed lines
that so easily tripped
off her tongue.
Our chemistry
made it feel easy and effortless,
as my heart fell swoon
to her...

Wings
To be able to fly high above the clouds on gossamer wings. To marvel at everything below. The beauty of a mirrored lake, to follow a meandering stream. The regimented path of an interstate highway marching out is site. Swinging up, the golden rays of the sun warming your face. The gentle breezes pushing you along. Mesmerized by the trees growing in tight clumps. Like if you traced them carefully, from dot to dot God’s great image would emerge.
But to fly so high is not meant to be. We search for things beyond our limits. The air grows thin and the mind plays tricks....

Fiery Pyre
Razor sharp,
cold as ice.
Surgical steel,
ends my plight.
Ruby red droplets,
flowing free.
Demons cackling,
won’t let me be.
Heated water,
drowses my soul.
Pills and alcohol,
do their role.
Life just fades,
too heavy for me.
My fiery pyre,
floats out to sea
cold as ice.
Surgical steel,
ends my plight.
Ruby red droplets,
flowing free.
Demons cackling,
won’t let me be.
Heated water,
drowses my soul.
Pills and alcohol,
do their role.
Life just fades,
too heavy for me.
My fiery pyre,
floats out to sea
