POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction I am on a journey… with my work, my explorations, and a few sad stories. I travel with a suitcase full of outrageous blessings. I am on a quest for truth, beauty and quiet joy. I am an artist, a writer, an explorer. ~unknown~

Rage against the machine
darkness crushed down
pressure phosphenes danced
behind lids
false stars
rubbed out
gravity erupted
straining lines
off there axis
tumbling through space
forms grappled
in disbelief
yin and yang
tumultuous war
split cells
lines were drawn
in the sand
swords wielded
against paper
injustices rampant
trying to make sense
of the nonsensical
another life taken
snuffed beneath badges of honor
forced to cross the bridge
over something...

after rain
watching rain drip from the trees
skies remain overcast
clouds have stopped spilling tears
road beneath her feet
black river
slick with wet
air is chill
not enough to show
exhaled breath
her thought patterns
scatter like the drops of rain
left on fallen leaves
hours pass unhinged
without duty
to fill them
nothing has to happen
only this moment
staring into wet beads
caught on green veins
beauty
in the stillness ...

saucy tannins red
perfuming all the senses
taste buds frolicking

days and days and days
blue and greens merging
drudgery of hours passing?
dipped in tranquil light
drudgery of hours passing?
dipped in tranquil light

we are one
the world is in need
reverberations of love
cream swirls in coffee

muted
pages creased
rustle in the wind
white feathers
yearning to fly
with imagination
left empty
drifting on the wind
to nowhere

storms make me restless
wanting to move beyond them
ahead of the wind
wanting to move beyond them

d i s t a n c e
he sits
basking in his own wilderness
of thoughts she cannot hear
muted by distance
she waits
ever patient
for them to arrive
flutterings
that can pierce
or fall gently
only time will tell
basking in his own wilderness
of thoughts she cannot hear
muted by distance
she waits
ever patient
for them to arrive
flutterings
