Widow's Walk
The daily diminishing of me went on
and after I was emptied fate gave up
and left me standing there, abandoned’
-R. M. Rilke
Clacking the stair to the top,
her sermons walked
to relay such a terminal tale
in sync with the ticking clock.
And high atop that steep ladder stair,
a rooftop promontory in brisk air
where sailing ships were once observed
as once again was hope preserved
On a horizon indecent with loss
empty but for crying gulls;
a small...

My Imperfections
Sometimes I feel like i'm drowning in my own tears
just those hurtful things you say and it hurts me.
I love you! I know we are having hard times right now
things will get better just wait and see…
I wish i could make things better but
I don't know what to do or say to make it better
When we get frustrated at each other and you make threats to leave it makes me sad because i know how hard things are right now
Im sorry if i did something to make you more irritated at me
When we get into our loud talks it scares me because
i remember all the...

Love story
I always thought of romance as chemistry.
I get you and you get me.
I never really pictured the
finer things,
not fancy dinners, or expensive rings.
Love has always held a higher standard.
Not just a word to throw out or be philandered.
Love is a treasure, a rare emotion.
A delicate feeling that comes from God, not a potion.
That moment I first looked in your eyes,
I knew right away by the goose bumps and butterflies,
and now here we are all these years later.
Those butterflies still fluttering and we're...

The Tongue is Mightier Than the Pen
The Tongue is Mightier Than the Pen
We are at “Where Ya At Pizzeria” where New Orleans sophistication turns countrified. Jane says, “Folks, I’m exhausted and need my rest. John, I have something to talk to you about. Let’s go home.”
Brandy says, “Is everything ok between you two? I hope my gabbing didn’t wear you out.”
Jane kisses Brandy on her cheek. “No worries my friend. Someday I’ll tell you about the squirrel in our attic. It took weeks for him to leave, drove me crazy. But we’ll save that for another time.”
Brandy tells Jane, “Don’t work him too...

Bachelorette Party for a Married Woman
Bachelorette Party for a Married Woman
My fidelity to my wife is impeccable. Were Bathsheba herself to offer herself naked to me for just one night of debauchery even a single evening would be too much. Then one fateful day I am called off by my boss for a business trip across the Atlantic. Though I trust my wife my night dreams are of her in the arms of a prince. So I phone her girlfriend and request that she stay with Miriam just for a week to ensure her safety and bring her comfort while I am away.

"Scribes Of Love" Series Part Two
Scribes Of Love"
Part Two
Oh dearest love of mine,
It has been three moons since I wrote you last. Your linger still hangs in the balance of my dwindling mind. To touch my flesh with your trace would shake my bones. The ache has set in and I can't hinder a thought without your presence. Your arms would create a hearth to warm my soul. This crush I feel is so debilitating. It's as if I'm walking around dead inside with no emotions. The sweetness of your whisper would surely echo in my ears. The sweetness would be overwhelming like a delicious kiss...

Maybe I knew
We have talked a lot, you and I, about love
about our belief that it was not the only key to a successful marriage
saying that if it happened, wonderful, but that it was not a necessary prerequisite
for achieving what we wanted most in this world.
And yet it happened. We are lucky.
This is our love song that is not a love song.
I sing not of your face
or your eyes (though oh, how I love the sight of your uncivilized blue eyes)
or the feel of your hair in my fingers.
This is the chorus,
my recounting of the times

Jicama
My wife Jicama,
Has gone sexually frigid
Valid reasons
Absolutely no time,
Since she started taking
"Online Classes."
I go out to to Garage
working on a
lifelike, interactive robotic doll
I know something is amiss,
When I can see my wife
thru the bedroom Window
watching Korean dramas.
Maybe I am no longer seductive.
"How about a quicky"
my best pickup line.
Can't compete with her
online support group meetings,
conquering the arduous class assignments. ...

The star, Riga, was a brilliant glowing orb filling the monitor at the moon base. Phillip had news that would soon cast darkness over the future. He approached Gudonov. “I’ve got the results of the solar probe, Helios. We have 100 years at the most. Then life-giving Riga will become like the Hindu god Shiva, death, the destroyer of worlds.”
“You mean nova?”
“It’s a certainty.”
