her portrait (what i imagine)
she stands
there, fresh
and directly
in front
of me,
i look
straight
into her
dark crescent
eyes,
her smile
waiting,
that charcoal
sweater
strained
vigorously,
highlighting
the swell
of
her breast,
her short
skirt
placed well
on
curvy hips,
everything
combined,
emphasizing
her body
well,
i leaned
in close,
her perfume
surrounded me,
bringing
me back
to reality,
...

counting stars
it all
began
seemingly
innocent
enough,
that great
task,
to go
outside,
to count
the stars,
ones
that wait
just above
my head,
these pleasures
woke up
the moon,
it became
happy
woke up
the sun,
but he
was not
happy,
and now
waiting
on his
jealousy
to run
its course,
i will
get back
to counting
more stars
when
the sun
again
relents
his sky.

come, be with me
come, share
this time,
let that
drunk sun
fall,
let us
be together
when darkness
descends
upon us,
these hours,
let us
unfold
our hearts,
sooth
ourselves in
the night,
and come
for morning,
still lie
beside me.

lasting impressions
you can
gather me
up in
your angel
like wings,
hide me,
tuck me
safely
next to
your breast,
i am
happy,
contented
here,
no dream
could
be better.

the moth and flame
2 a.m.,
the moth
drawn
to the light,
knowing
it is
suicide
to kiss
the flame,
but,
his lover
is there,
waiting,
and
the moth
flies into
the flame,
the candle
consuming him,
the moth
lay cremated
on the
ground,
his lover
wide awake,
and still
looking
for more
kisses,
from
even more
sacrificial lovers.

a thought for snow
i casually
walked myself
to the
entrance
of my
backdoor,
i perched
myself
half in
half out,
there in
that framed
doorway,
and
i felt
a lightness
in
the air,
not
a freezing
moment,
still,
not the
warm missed
days
of what
summer
had been,
but this,
a feeling
like
the night
was telling
me of
its thoughts
for snow.

my favorite gypsy
she
stands out,
far among
the others,
with her
beautiful
furnished soul,
adapting,
her vulnerable,
delicate heart
and spirit,
her light
gently travels
like
the winds,
delightful fingers
weave
her tales,
full
of dreams,
her creation
a joy
to everyone,
she is
loved,
may she
never forget.

old wood
where does
yesterday
go
when it
is all over,
when it
prepares
to die,
to disappear
in that
last midnight
second,
one breath
away,
i cannot
walk among
the trees
while
the hours
are being
cut down,
stacked
and burned
like
old wood.

anxiety
the flames
draped
over
my folding
darkness,
the tangle
behind
blurring dreams,
pressed
in gleaming
ruins,
these
passing nights,
well worn
in layers
of frailty,
this brittle
climate,
this is
where
the candle
burns brightest
at sunrise.

returning
to
the extreme
edge,
her mouth
is like
a canyon,
ready
to swallow
up
the water,
the trees,
even
the air,
how recollections
remember,
this scent,
one falling
on another,
these memories
melting
into
each other,
and at
the evening
when
the world
all melts
the mountains,
darkness
will hold
everything
very, very,
still.

the boat
your skin
is impervious
to
the pain
from
the water,
the coldness
does not
pluck holes
in you,
the stones
do not
sink your
enthusiasm,
the currents
cannot
defy who
you are,
the waterfall
will not
keep you
from rising
to be
who you
want to
become.

cold coffee
my mind
hotly
concentrates
on writing
words,
stretching
thousands
of miles,
never
stepping away
from
my chair,
now,
my coffee
has turned
cold.
