Tabitha standing naked.

Three & Nine
In a box on a book shelf
there’s a picture of me
on my eighteenth birthday,
a champagne bottle pressed
against my lips like a gun
an arm full of bracelets
which looked pretty,
but I knew what they hid
just in the same way
I noted my eyes
as glassed as that weapon
in desperate hands.
I’d like to pretend
I gave a fuck about today
as my calendar celebrated
another safe trip around the sun,
but I didn’t. Not especially so.
I just laughed at the fruit smoothie
I made with...

A note for rainbow fins
She is more
heart over matter
reflecting rainbow
fins in lakes, rivers,
seafronts, carving
waves in her own
wilderness.
Sunshine pierces
through thick clouds
but she is already
awake; rising up
in her pisces sigh
spending all day
falling deep into
every lake, river
and seafront,
her beloved wild
singing stories
leaving marks
on her scales
as she dreams
in whirlpools.

Would You Like To Open Your Present?
David came home from work.
He found Selma naked on the bed.
Smiling, she said "Happy Birthday".

A midnight lamp.
She was laying
Her paper sheets
As soon as he
Came back
From work.
She and he both looked tired
To turn a page of Wolfe diaries
Of grammar grades.
The Dracula drak
Of green blue looked tired and the
Swansco Bridges of harbor freight train
Stations turned violets.
The vast tree looked empty
Upon a email
Until the Dracula drak returned to tree
Of castles.
Her paper sheets
As soon as he
Came back
From work.
She and he both looked tired
To turn a page of Wolfe diaries
Of grammar grades.
The Dracula drak
Of green blue looked tired and the
Swansco Bridges of harbor freight train
Stations turned violets.
The vast tree looked empty
Upon a email
Until the Dracula drak returned to tree

Sweet Sixteen
In the dance of youth, I turned sweet sixteen,
Already I’d been tempted by love's subtle gleam.
Did I feel regret or a sad haunting tune
Because I had shared my young body too soon?
Intimacies scattered like petals in the dirt.
My life was so littered by a past filled with hurt.
Each kiss that I gave seemed to cover my sadness.
And the loves that I made became my own madness.
Already I’d been tempted by love's subtle gleam.
Did I feel regret or a sad haunting tune
Because I had shared my young body too soon?
Intimacies scattered like petals in the dirt.
My life was so littered by a past filled with hurt.
Each kiss that I gave seemed to cover my sadness.
And the loves that I made became my own madness.

Dad Went To Cleveland To Surprise Wendy
Dad went
to Cleveland to
surprise Wendy on her

taking her clothes off on a strip club stage.

Cendra's Birthday Parties
Cendra had an unusual last name
Skin shades darker than mine
Parents years older than most.
No siblings.
She was confident and self-assured.
Additional qualities I found exotic.
I liked being around her.
Her 11th (12th?) birthday was at Gooney Golf
There was a giant dinosaur at the entrance.
The last hole was an igloo.
Even if you missed, it captured your ball at the end.
Gone.
After miniature golf, we went back to Cendra's house for cake.
At her decree, we smeared frosting on our faces.
When her...
