The Walker
Sometimes, there is a sense that the road doesn't
roll out further, there is no vista of a highland or a slow-running river of sweet water to lazily swim
while remembering Marilyn in Lazaro's jewelry shop, a dream so vivid, not dim, as the years roll by.
It is time to take the boots out of the cupboard try them on, and feel how they make your feet walk
Travel light, a rucksack will do, and a solid walking stick to fend off dogs.
The upland has no rain, although it might shower
on the way there; at night, you can seek shelter

Reaching out…
I don’t want to hurt you
I just want to hear you
Teach me how
to really listen
to really know your heart
I care
Teach me how
to repair
I would bind the wounds I gouged
If but I might earn again your trust,
Most precious gift

Failed poet
It is worrying when your mind is electrocuted by overthinking when you know for sure the system
is out to get you
The man sat naked on his roof as was his want none can deny this common right.
They tried to get him down from there, but he insisted they must hear his earth-shattering poems
of the sort that make grown men weep, go home
make love to their wives, and start a sheep farm in the utter Hebrides.
They got him down from the roof by telling him a hall was ready for him to speak, his dog didn't believe this and bit a nurse's ankle. ...

the ember of love
The Ember of Love
As he was walking along the busy shopping street an old woman, came toward him
He knew her but hadn't seen her for many years
once upon a time, he had loved her very much
they both stopped; she remembered him and forthright, as she always was, told him he looked old
She was old also but refrained from telling her
Their hair was white and brittle, and her prominent nose had dropped, giving her a look like a witch.
They hugged, and he told her she looked great!
Behind the thick-rimmed glasses she wore, he saw
a glimmer of...

How Do I love Again
Love is a drug and I just need my fix
Tired of pouring all this love into the wrong bitch
Tired of the different mood swings
I hit the wrong switch
Love ain’t did nothing
Not even made me rich
Who knew Love would feel like this?
Love chose a man over her kids
Love had me locked up facing a bid
Love had me wishing I didn’t exist
Love had me taking risks
Now I know what love feels like at the end
I might have said some things I never meant
You really going to throw away all the time that we spent?
I can’t even sleep...
Tired of pouring all this love into the wrong bitch

Tempest
Please
Lay it all on me
The hurt, the anger,
Frustration, sorrow, fear,
The scars, betrayals,
Those injuries that cut by cut,
Trauma on trauma
Built deep, tough, thick barriers
Marks to remind
Scars to warn
Your hopeful mind
To not rewind
Please
Bare the truths
Of my careless shots
How, when, where each Struck
Rage it all on me
Please
Bring the tempest
If then your soul might rest
Lay it all on me
The hurt, the anger,
Frustration, sorrow, fear,
The scars, betrayals,
Those injuries that cut by cut,
Trauma on trauma
Built deep, tough, thick barriers
Marks to remind
Scars to warn
Your hopeful mind
To not rewind
Please
Bare the truths
Of my careless shots
How, when, where each Struck
Rage it all on me
Please
Bring the tempest
If then your soul might rest

Forgive Me for Living
I sometimes forget to swallow my words,
to stomp on my foot,
and to croak like a bird.
Apologies tumble off my tongue,
begging for forgiveness,
though I deserve none.
My silly mind had forgotten its tune,
the melodic melancholy,
a violent croon.
Stagnant steps falter and break,
as my tongue becomes tied,
my throat beginning to ache.
Over eager tears race,
My face overshadowed,
With a horrid disgrace.
Ringing resonates in my head,
The air light,
My eyes puffy and red. ...

Stagnant steps falter and break,

my throat beginning to ache.

With a horrid disgrace.

just like that
over and over
i pled
i clawed and clawed
and i bled
until bloodied fingertips
were dripping with shame
i screamed and screamed
until choking on blame
i screamed
until screams
no longer came—
the phone rang,
from

a voice
tried to explain
and just like that

New Me Everyday
I wish they all could know
I don’t like that version of me
The me who said those things
Thought those ways
I never reach full final achievement
This effort in rebuilding, remaking,
Designing & displaying
A better version of myself
And that’s okay!
What’s not okay…
What I don’t like…
Times like these when I
Direct that disgust I feel
For past errors I have made
Onto this me who keeps on living
In the now
As I ask forgiveness
For the faulty words I spoke
I also hope
To forgive...

Wholeness parts from real
Eyes in pairs;
Ends heard all

A Poet Without Words
It's been months since I last saw you,
I've stopped counting, it's true,
My life I did skew,
This is my cue
To tell all,
How hard I did fall,
And then fell again,
Leaving many a bleeding ink stain,
Fit for the entrainment of vaudevilles,
I was so head over heels,
That I tripped,
My pen blood dipped,
Trying to with words, prop myself up,
And when I stood up,
My head did spin,
I was holding my spilled guts in,
Though you never did see,
For I wouldn't dare let you see,
My heart hanging by just a thread, ...

So long dear freind
Though you still breathe air into your lungs , you no longer live . bleak , void of life pools of obsidian , now rest upon your sunken face,where your once ocean blue eyes lived summers past .Gone is the girl who used to answer to your name . goodbye dear friend for this is where we part ways . i will not watch as you slip from my grip . my love i lended to you alas you didn't want help you wanted suffering something of which i cannot offer farewell dear love may me meet again , i pray it to be in this realm yet sorrowfully I know it to be but a cruel dream . may you find peace one day that...
