Stuart's Voice
Stuart's voice sounds like a garbage disposal;
like metal grinding metal.
Razor blades perhaps.
Decades ago,
when we were a couple,
Stuart's voice was carbonated lemon juice
a trace of sweetness,
sour in a fun way.
Now his strained vocalizations cut my ears.
I'm glad.
I'm glad because I wouldn't want to hear that voice every day.
I'm glad because now I don't want to be with him.
It would have been complicated,
his beautiful wife not going anywhere.
Stuart takes more and more vacations alone.
The more I...

Morning Thoughts
Sunday morning, heavy mist clings to the building
the bay of Cascais is shrouded as a grief-striking widow
inaudibly her sigh, but her eyes are still sea green
Ten days ago, I made a prediction that 19000 will die before Israel was sated of spilled blood,
her primitive revenge speaks of Byzantine times
Truly, Israel is a religious state
The local news tells me in the last two years
three hundred thousand Brazilians have immigrated
to Portugal this without fanfare or disapproving remark
from conservative...

Tierra Extranjera (I)
En un correo sincero, sin disfraz,
Confesiones de un sentimiento guardado,
Amistad y secretos compartidos sin cesar,
Dos almas unidas en un lazo entrelazado.
El inicio, en Madrid, una cena en noche tailandesa,
Dos mundos que colisionan, surgen risas,
Desconfianza inicial, pero luego sorpresa,
Amistad nacida en medio de las brasas.
El tiempo pasó, se alejaron por momentos,
Misterio y confusión, sentimientos ocultos,
Celos y críticas, desafíos y argumentos,
Pero la amistad persistió, fuerte en tumultos.
Un viaje...

Lion Heart
touching Angelic fate
with a Lion heart
touches the vision of fade
seeking solace I cry out
only you answered silently in the darkness
not offering what I wanted
but what I needed...honesty
truth's hope was bitter
but you understood better than I
I needed to awaken
the rushing of deep waters
your voice crash upon my conscious
speaking parables
a linguist of soul
reaching my hurt places
giving succor to my pain
edifying the woman
chastising the girl
true to form I withdrew ...

on love
love
the most complex of all
love
the most soul crushing of them all
high value, pure and golden
the biggest of them all
but what about everyday love?
what about friends?
when i talk about love
i picture them -
friends, my dear friends -
the ones i owe my sanity to
the ones sacrificing their time to check in on me
and the ones who deserve not only that
but the world in every screaming color
happiness displayed on their faces
as they achieve everything they're destined to
you know what follows: ...

I See That Someone's Finally Up
Linda
woke up in
someone
else's bedroom but not
in her underwear
before Billy walked
in with
coffee for
his guest.

Blue
Almost home now
it don't let up
stomping mudpuddles downtown
with my favorite
Jean jacket on
Whats the point if I'm not
gonna end up with an arms length of
hope?
Right or wrong
lost in a fog and I'm choking back smoke
and all my best friends are gone
I'm speaking gibberish
Inside jokes just rotting
away in a mucky bog
I'm still swimming along and
I'm falling in
Almost home now
we ain't chill though
I'm choking back a croak
in the loneliest swamp
and it's so...

Wel? Do i Look Sexy In This Bikini?
In the light of day,
Rachel stepped out of her pad
and modeled her new swimsuit.

Flowers Episode 1: Soul Soldier
I was humbled
When she first uttered those words
Out loud..in a crowd full of poets
Soul Soldier
Indeed I felt those weighted words
Egotistical yet introverted
I wasn't sure how to show my appreciation
Thus the apprehension
But as Time humbles
I see what she always saw
True and full of Blues
She understood my Soldier
The one that carries on in spite of myself
That lone Underdog
On a hill littered with convictions
Fighting for Love...for art
For my own humanity
Dodging...

I'll Do More Than Tell You. I'll Show You.
Tricia was
found on the bed with some
money covering her nude body
by Stephen who wanted to know how she got the
cash which made Tricia move some of the
bills out of the way to
show him how.

As We Gather
To read each other and maybe say hello
I’d like ya’ll to know
I couldn’t have survived without you
Many times when I didn’t know what to do
I’d log on just to see a friendly face
In what I consider my safest space
You allow me to vent, laugh, scream and cry
And even though this may be a simple rhyme
There’s nothing simple about what ya’ll do
So very thankful for you
