POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Infant word Houdini.
..web of stars..
.the constellation..
many stars perfectly aligned
coming together to make you
some dead stars heavy wounded and distraught
other dead stars healed strong loving and solid
standing in perfect alignment to guide and misguide
but we pray for the hurt ones to be wrapped in cocoons
of
healing prayers
and for the strong ones to kiss and heal the wounds
dead and alive
stiff and unbending to soft and empathic
lost and confused to present and knowing
the healing web of stars was a mystery remembered once again

..awaken..
The slowest crawl turns into
An effervescent reach for life
The dependency is real
First cup of coffee

The dependency is real
First cup of coffee

..i spy..
Webs of white blue and green
With fuzz and sheen
Your days of glory are gone
Moldiest mandarin

..a tiny offering..
it was short
it was sweet
it was something to eat
mini cup of ice cream

..the nights delight..
it's the kind of wind that rattles the windows
it's the kind of evening that gets the logs lit
it's the kind of deep chill that fire people long for
it's the kind of night that asks for bone broth to be sipped from a mug
it's the kind of kind that has you stay inside to relax your mind
with a good book
with a good film
with a slow cooked meal
with a fur ball at your feet
with a good pen and thick paper
with a soft blanket over your lap writing poems
yeah, it's that kind of evening
come over

Witches in threes?
Stunned eyes on a glowing tree?
A beacon of light on the darkest night?
What do your eyes see?

..itchy on the inside..
.itchy on the inside..
tis the season for sneezin
pollen you are the reason
I pop a Benadryl when the itch is real
who knew it was possible to itch inside
but it's fine
as long as you knock back two diphenhydramine
before you know it
symptoms ease
no longer feeling the need to sneeze
i can go back outside and play again
armed against the mighty pollen

..a solid lineup..
.a request was made..
and the magician delivered a solid line up
three words land on the glow screen door
i really could not ask for more
is it really that easy?
rub a lamp and ask the genie?
apparently so and here we go:
Space.. what's needed to see
Fuzz.. what's in between
Murk.. the reality
and so it is

..a walk in your woods..
Before entering your shire I give pause
With my deepest respect filled with awe
I whisper for your permission
Fingers touch your soil
Is that your heartbeat pitter-patter ?
A hawks wings mirror with a flitter-flatter
You let me enter your domain
Each leaf communicates my presence down your earthy lanes
I hear your creaks and groans
My heard tilts up
your many hardened snake-arms sway in the wind
Your devastating realness humbles me
With my deepest respect filled with awe
I whisper for your permission
Fingers touch your soil
Is that your heartbeat pitter-patter ?
A hawks wings mirror with a flitter-flatter
You let me enter your domain
Each leaf communicates my presence down your earthy lanes
I hear your creaks and groans
My heard tilts up
your many hardened snake-arms sway in the wind
Your devastating realness humbles me

.drinking dew drops from wet cave walls..
