Sunday Swan Song
It was the piano that finally made me cry.
I’ve been dispassionate
(to say the least)
about this closure,
knowing that eras end and life goes on –
impatient to rip off the bandage.
Perhaps even a little bitter
about all the years I tried to help
people
think
bigger
even though my faith never completely fit
inside their box.
I think I gave it my best.
I guess they did too –
nurturing me and my kids
through all kinds of storms,
(even when I wasn’t easy to love) ...

Emergency poem for a busy day
Won't be home 'til past midnight
So here's a bunch of words
I'll squish 'em all together
Crap a poem of verbal turds
Twinkle twinkle little star
I am riding in my car
On my way to another gig
Sing some songs, dance a jig
Fishnets and a little skirt
Cherry Docs for kickin' dirt
Wrist bandana like Joan Jett
It's good for wiping off the sweat
The setlist looks good to my eyes
I printed copies for the guys
Devices charged, lots of water I'm bringing
Only thing I forgot - to practice singing!

Midnight Blues in New Orleans
Midnight Blues in New Orleans
Degas in his studio
Paints the NOLA cotton exchange
While sad clouds drift
Like floating islands of Bible belt dreams
High on the calluses of blues guitarists
Wailing like the ghosts of Hades
That haunt Claiborne Avenue
Like a hobo with his stove pipe hat
With a bottle of Port to welcome his ship
When he rises from his entombed dreams
Where Jelly Roll Morton was heard
Playing on the victrola
When the scent of whisky poured
From windows to the midnight voodoo
Of a...

Final minutes of gig day
This here is a makeshift poem –
I’ll grab me some words and I’ll throw ‘em
on a page just to say that I did it.
Before midnight I have to submit it.
I’m exhausted, this day was so busy;
spent hours of it in a tizzy
preparing my rock ‘n roll show
and getting myself in the flow.
What a joy! My kids came along,
and they danced to so many songs.
Now I feel that my life is complete:
I’m a mom AND a rock star – how sweet!
.

Library of Hatred
Library of hatred disenfranchised by the womb of the populous
Oh, how I breath the words of true grit
Here they are expelled from the curtain of my tongue
Will you dance with my ideas behind the parallel circumstances?
Will you remember everything that has been taught to you?
Will you grab the goat by his ice-cold horns and take the ride into the stars?
The body crumbles but the will is magnificent
It is magnificent!

Reverie in Warner Theatre
Listening in the dark
just Jason and his guitar
reminding me of all the times
I've been betrayed
by my own rhymes
and constructed phrases
I'm okay with it
in a crooked smile, shiny eyes
kind of way
All the love songs (and poetry)
do mean different things today
and while that may hurt
in the moments you realize they do
there's some comfort in that truth
Every note, clear as a bell
fills the hushed theatre
and finds me in my seat
turning pages of memories
while I etch this one

fermata
my heart not flesh but keys and wire
pins. hammers. strings gone still
reachin out for melody’s ghost
that hovers just beyond my grasp
I am a vessel overfilled
music trapped beneath my skin
desperate to escape thru fingertips
that tremble behind their prison walls
silence grows heavy with the mornin sun
unplayed notes collect under dust
I count days like measures in a score
where this fermata stretches past what I can bear

that tremble behind their prison walls
silence grows heavy with the mornin sun
unplayed notes collect under dust
I count days like measures in a score

red, red wine...
I've got an 80s beat riding my mind
so come on, baby...stroke me...
give me some bump & grind
...rub me...burn me...
baby, turn me...inside out & upside down
you're gonna need both hands now
grip me...flip me...hit me with your best shot
any way you want it...take on me...
I got an itch...& it's urgent
but I know you can reach it
spread me like your centerfold
trace fingers along my glistening crease
watch me freeze frame as you tease
I'll be lovin' every minute of it
all fired up...delirious

seeking Polaris
geek out on me, baby
you don't know what your...enthusiasm...does to me
it's a true Dazzler
makes this girl wanna go Rogue
& Storm your Nightcrawler Beast
stalk your Mirage & its Mystique
don't Blink, baby
I might wreak Havok on your ass
I'm gonna throw out the opening Gambit
then step back
licking my lips over your wild Wolverine
talk Sunfire sexy to me
I mean...here I am
eying you sideways behind my Domino mask
with my Sunspot eyes
make me Mimic a Banshee
& howl at your Collosus
come on, baby...

You Know What You Done
Verse 1)
The doctor gave me bad news, Lord, my time ain’t long.
But I stood tall in the shadow, tried to stay strong.
When I needed you the most, girl, you turned and ran.
Left me fightin' this demon with my bare hands.
(Chorus)
You know what you done, and it won’t wash clean.
A soul like yours, girl, it’s downright mean.
Left a dying man to battle alone,
May the devil take you down to his throne.
(Verse 2)
We had love like fire, so I thought it seemed.
But fire burns cold when the truth intervenes.
You packed your...

I don't share my music playlist
with many people
I don't even share it
with my partner
He likes more upbeat music
and our definitions
of what is upbeat
are very different
(and according to him
I'm doing it wrong)
so I save my dreamy
melancholy tunes
and angsty metal ballads
for people who get my vibe
Because music is my love language
and the more something makes me feel
the harder it is to share with anyone
outside my chosen few
who gets just as high as I do
