The Sparrowhawk, The Keeper And I
As a boy I applauded her magnificent figure;
As a boy I watched her fly, in the sky, so high.
As a boy I admired her almighty vigour;
As a boy I watched her deftly swoop and swirl.
As a boy my intransigent senses she was able to trigger.
She was coloured golden brown as she flew;
She flashed and dazzled in the early morning sunshine.
She commanded the air as she soared straight and true;
Her eyes could see far ~ much farther than those of you or I.
Below nothing could obscure her view of the ground, bathed in dew.
She adorned the...

In Mo(u)rning
my dear
friend
this too,
shall pass
in quiet times,
like the day
I held you
in my arms
while you cried,
shaking,
and your
world
was falling
apart;
but we both
know that
sunshine
always comes
round'

Barbra Jean
Some called her dumb
she was just numb
and kinda sorta
full of opium.
An abstract mind
doing lines
this one last time,
or is it.
No one gets it.
No one knows,
she shoots up
between her toes
then it's off to
work she goes.
A productive Junky
high school flunky
the drugs stop
her from getting chunky
she works at a bar
so shes always drunky,
smoking pot,
she smells skunky.
Hope is a planet far, far away
in this stooper Barbra Jean...
she was just numb
and kinda sorta

Lionel
You could see the bottom
Of my reflection
In the meadow, I watched your shadow
Flitter from bloom to bloom,
And maybe, I could feel
The butterfly wings
But I touched them
And you died
And you never migrated back
And the spring did not spring
The sunlight feels too hot
You never were mine,
And that's fine
It's fussy of me to stay attached
I was just decor for your image
A little model train in a little model train set
Speeding through tiny tunnels
And little towns filled with clay and plastic

Canto XII: Kulpa Tends His Crop
The poet paused, collecting scattered thoughts,
and drinking deeply, then continued on:
Again, the guilt imbiber, Kulpa, came;
distilled himself to dream in slick disguise.
Fe became aware of Hul’s physique
as she awoke, or thought she was aroused,
and in her semi-conscious state forgot
by mechanism of the mind evolved,
the horrors she had recently observed.
She turns to face him, memory forgot.
She, eyes alight, draws back at the display,
so heavy had her limbs and chest become,
all flight and shriek were...

someone i use to know
i havent written about this person in awhile
I will say that you did give me the push I needed
maybe at one time for you I would of gone the long mile
they were signs I should of heeded
now I have a youtube channel and poetry books on amazon
so I thank you for that push
for some reason I feel your intentions were never pure
maybe I was in a rush
I saw the good in you
which is one of my biggest flaws
now I see someone that I don't want
ill say we did have a ball
I was just checking on you as a friend

Goodbye
it is not a pleasant feeling losing a friend.
but then again,
who was really the friend?
was it all in my imagination?
was it all just pretend?
reality hurts sometimes.
its ok to mourn.
just remember,
you cannot lose whats already gone.
you cannot lose what never belonged.
you lost nothing at all.
you only shed whats dead.

Canto XI: Retreat
I waited there until at last they fled,
and sat there in the gloom of night advanced.
The scurries of the wolves dissolved on wind
and I was left alone in all my thoughts,
or rather I should say my lack of thoughts,
for all that sight had brought about was sense:
I heard the hiss of wind in serpent tones
and felt the coarse wind’s scale upon my skin.
I smelled the iron scent of red on earth
or maybe of the blood that stained my clothes.
Which was the source was indeterminable.

A Memory of Sunlight
I can’t help but wonder
If partings begin to take
Their shape,
In our earliest moments
Together
Wind occasionally bends the
Downpour, toward
Us, lifts your
Age thinned
Hair, with phantom
Fingers
Caress
You look at everything
As if,
It may not be
Real,
Composed of some
Momentary
Whimsy,
Hanging beneath the
Hammer
Of some atmospheric
Thunder,
Moments before
A meteoric
Impact,
Lays waste to everything
Are there

The First Day of March 2019
Today I awoke to two unexpected presences:
the harsh, sheet white snow,
which appeared sometime after
the drunken hours of 3AM.
secondly,
Madi
tangled in blankets
rhythmically
and sleepily breathing on my floor
the harsh, sheet white snow,
which appeared sometime after
the drunken hours of 3AM.

HOW I FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU
Remember when we first met you were there sitting at the table and our eyes met, across the crowded and darken room and it was at that moment within time that I could picture us together as one. For even though you had your guards up, I understood that you've been hurt by someone and it takes time and effort and patience. To deal with the process of the pain that still is heavy upon your heart, making you afraid to trust to love and to be able to see the difference, between who I am and who I am not to be as I am not them. For they say the best way to heal is to be able to see not what is...

bigger than us
you were once my best friend you meant everything to me
I'm not going to lie you still do
the little girl in me ask why did you leave
we had something so strong so cool
I wanted to help you put us back together
I couldn't close my heart like you wanted me to
we once made a promise of always and forever
to be honest, how could you be so cruel
now you don't talk to me
we have a bond that holds us together
how can this be
we are parents you can't ignore me forever
despite what I found you that hurt me to my core ...
