Is it Raining Where You Are?
Wings of fireflies raindown
then turn , into spinning arrows
of glass that stick to my lashes
as I look up to catch the flavors
of their colors.
See them pretend to be beautiful ?
I am beautiful
when left alone to be myself Everything about this world changes, all of the tarnished memories sit, magnified
under a clear dome.
Confused about their role
iin my life, they dsappear
Disappear like landlocked boats perched high on the desert floor waiting on the ocean to carry them to freedom
just as daydreams assist...

Dark Nature Bawls
Sounds of anguish and drowning sorrow dissolve his life’s worth.
Behind it drips regret, confusion and shame
Fueled by fear, his spirit stands alone
Stifled by his lack of wisdom
and ignorance of pride every unclean thought rides its wave
of power.
Surrounded, lost to the constant moan of deaths calling ,
Nerves shred as this redundant dark nature bawls over all that is good and lovely
His life continues within the pit
of mental illness

His life continues within the pit

Chameleon-Not a Poem
I have been away from my writing since Aprl of 2021
I found myself drowning in a cycle of insanity
I could not find words to express life beyond the mental illness that surrounded me (spouse)
I am a fixer always looking to make someone else's existence richer more meaningful
Not my own that was too painful looking at, tearing apart the pieces before mending was not my idea of a good day
I am a runner, turning my back away from harsh reality always putting on a smile a trudging through the shit
Today I had a harsh awakening in regards...

Edges Fit Tight
Edges fit, designed by
your covetous needs
This fortress reinforced
by the paucity,
of my boundaries
Self-imposed blindness colors
my perception in sultry hues
of my choosing.
I am not the victim , but the legacy of a torn marriage, memories
turns their head in defeat
Numb comfort has forced
these days into years, years into decades as I watched time dance with the threat of a lifetime
looming
Lack of hope was galvanized conceived and birthed
through excessive...

IT Once Was Mine
Bury me
or this ego of mine
apart, from who I am
This unconscious self
that exercises free will
separate from my own.
Demons move about
a relative alive within me
caters to this fully centered
self.
Bury me
or this ego that reigns
over my wake, and sleep
This driven force, from somewhere inside
attempting to please Itself
as if, I don't mind
I have no say, over
this, that calls me its own
Bury me
or this ego that angers
me, fulfilling my needs ...

Hurry
1/30
Hurry
the scourge that besets us
frazzles and tangles our lives.
Baton passed to the children
of the corporate elite
as they race for the ladder
its rungs missing,
then replaced
opportunities lessened
for some
provision for others
Fabricated food, lives
xeroxed from images
of success
Replicated DNA
sets the premise
for the next generation.

Without Knowing
Awakened
upon a comforting breast
Familiar, predetermined
imbedded knowledge where
reality manifests
who we are
The passage of time
its structured pace allows
for the joining of spirits
Heart to heart intimate
details come to life
Take my hand, little one
Know me, through the ages
Love me, as I love you
Trust me, for eternity
My love for you
empowers my vibration
To have you in my life
fills me
with a deep gratitude
Words could never express ...

I Feel As If I Were
I feel as if I were a valuable canine neglected by its owner, food
and water he provides, love he does not
and water he provides, love he does not
