Up And At ’Em
Up and at ‘em…When I just wanna sleep
As luck would have it, I can only fathom having this peace…
Some imagined reprieve, that I could handle with ease, to turn the war and win the battle in me…
Dear Lord,
I plead for more…From the ground floor to soar
High from a balcony, where ancient alchemy’s released
Confounding winds with a baffling breeze
I dabble in these
Within my rabble-rousing skin
My spirit calls for action and the grappling begins…
Through the lens of these esoteric factions
Lives the fractious…Not enamored...

Untitled for some reason
sometimes I would walk to the kitchen, coffee mug in hand
forget why it was I had found myself in the kitchen
perhaps it was the howling winds loud knocking on the door?
regarding clothes, treat yourself never comes to mind
the rags I wear, stay on me for days
or... till they fall apart in the end
sometimes I might run a scalding bath, fall asleep till the water is icey
often times I will fill the water back up, nice and hot
drifting off just above the water line flirting with buoyancy

Again we pick scabs
pooled wax sits the faint last few flickers of the candle
scented ? or perhaps unscented sorrow
however do you like coffee
steaming hot espresso or iced cold latte?
a train passes by on a frost bitten winters day
the station briefly frozen in time
prompt though the next train
only the passengers know their true destination
years pass by
or was it the changing of winter to spring
back again to pitfalls wandering through glaciers
laying dormant await the...

Better Days
Golden willow weeping lowly
in the wind and swaying slowly
the sun shall paint your leaves ablaze
a guiding light to better days
Brightly shining magical star
meeting us always where we are
on the surface a passion's fire
in flames of hope that we desire
I am the willow weeping now
please rest your light on troubled brow
so longing to feel warmth again
that turns the lip to subtle grin
Until I smile now facing east
and from this pain I am released
to bask within her warming rays

OVERCOME
Within sleep, unspoken scars
All that's left are bleak memoirs
Plugged the wounds with every smile
And words kept brief
Laid to rest beneath the dirt
In a land I'll not return
Lies a corpse of hope resiled
That haunts my dreams
Ripping through the calmest scene
There's a storm that beckons me
This malice from darkness birthed
'Round every turn
In these halls that ebb and flow
Every person seems to know
The same emptiness that burns
Each gaze averts
All reasons aside
Something in me...
All that's left are bleak memoirs
Plugged the wounds with every smile
And words kept brief
Laid to rest beneath the dirt
In a land I'll not return
Lies a corpse of hope resiled
That haunts my dreams
Ripping through the calmest scene
There's a storm that beckons me
This malice from darkness birthed
'Round every turn
In these halls that ebb and flow
Every person seems to know
The same emptiness that burns
Each gaze averts
All reasons aside
Something in me...

Tears in my eyes
The elders say that we have the ability to manifest, that which you can see and feel, if you can only believe in your faith. 🙏 THAT we all are connected in one way or another.. 🤨 For sure it's strange how we are connected by a force feeding us emotions, from far away in a destination that we've never been before in our lives. For I woke up this morning 😔 with tears in my own eyes not really knowing WHY... Yet I felt it necessary to write these unspoken words, ✍️ down to someone some where some place needs to hear, these words of encouragement and support...

Child
I was a child
the brunt of jokes
too young to understand the laughter
torn between humiliation and need for attention
I was a child
defenseless, confused
too young to understand my body’s reactions
torn between shame and need for affection
I was a child
hiding, unprotected
too young to understand the rage was not my fault
torn between fear and need for acceptance
I was a child
hurt, neglected
too young
torn
I was a child.

Harmony mix with Peace
It's another day here on earth 🌎 that I am here by myself in this atmosphere of no time only space. as I let the entire world slowly slip away from my mind and heart and soul. For AS I am looking around this very transition, is a welcome site to find out here in natures beauty, as it is surroundings me yet
I can relate to this day as I continue to pray. 🙏 Thanks again for another day in my life and world, 🌎 that I've been blessed to see another day on this earth. For sure I am grateful and thankful and blessed, to have this opportunity for a righteous blessing....

keeping Self in check
one of the most difficult...
...& most valuable...
lessons I've had to learn in healing
is not letting my own wounds
become someone else's damage
turning the sharp edge of my pain
...away
because emotional injury...
...is something we cannot undo
& apologies don't mend the ache
the scar will always remain
just as mine exist
so too will theirs
& what if...
mine was one strike too many...

Meaningful title inserted
it's two am
slept
maybe an hour
two uninterrupted dreamers
laying undisturbed
enter the muse
tangoing into the mind's eye
quickening the pace
flowing coffee
freshly brewed as scant offering
she summons me
wounds still fresh in the blistering sun
yet to scar over
still puss and scab
sorrows embrace of sadness grips me
still the door creaks, opened by her
drawing from the joint
gently she guides me
my smoke shadow, mere illusion
...

Primum Non Nocere (First, Do No Harm)
Fresh thoughts don't love a haughty place
much as plants prefer fertile dirt
for growth expansion into space
and not a venue of more hurt
like what austerity provides
in old tough love die hard disguise
stabbing like knives at marching ides
or boasting brazen at demise
when austerity strips away
all pretense of love in its hate
with..."go ahead and make my day"...
proving itself as not so great
since greatness must encourage growth,
as known by Hippocratic oath!

On Frozen Pond
On frozen pond a stone skips readily
a slippery slope to fall down steadily
the hand ever sleight holds the balance too tight
and we dance to the same sad medley
A metronome sanity salted with doom
memories of stories that ended too soon
collected at night to hide from the light
fear of the breaking forever to loom
The empirical evidence lied
and the hard truth will always collide
a mind slowly bends a means to an end
rest assured there is nowhere to hide
An explosion of pent up emotion
