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~

please
don't worry yourself about
all the things
you think I am missing
square box
vibrates electric
white noise
brimming with falsehoods
amid the crackling
there are rumors of truths
in tones of
you must agree
with my side of the story
keyboards rumble
mighty drum accusations
everyone trying to make
their point known
chaos is our only truth
and mounting bodies

soul wild
spin, jump, dance, wiggle
throw something new on the wind
stay original
"Do you know what I do when I feel completely unoriginal? I make a noise, or I do something that no one has ever done before. And then I can feel unique again, even if it’s only for a second."

may I have this dance ...
my laughter sets him off
we start this playful dance
he lunges and circles
a low growl is our song
the only pull
our energy
freely flowing
between us

we are all made from the Earth's core
the blade rested sharp
wondered how much it could hurt
to watch the pulse bleed

O almost tamed one
who has embraced my heart
tamed me to want to
share my gardens
with your sweet singing
sitting patiently
for your presence
you hop and flex wings
quietly chirping
for attention
letting me know you are
nearer to letting me love you
in the only way
a human can
enter your
flights of fancy
sitting statue
hand held out
offering entrance

nonsensical .. just because
to be fair
the first thing
in a bit
more
is the fact
of it
and not
a lot to get to see
if I was just thinking of me
at a time
to get out
and I would be
a little more frequently
said I would be
better off
if you are having fun
and I don't think you can
get back into reality
if you're not going anywhere
in the future
but I will see it in my mind
and I will see it again
and I will see it all
the first thing
in a bit
more
is the fact
of it
and not
a lot to get to see
if I was just thinking of me
at a time
to get out
and I would be

and I will see it again

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 ...

taste buds frolicking
