My reading glasses are needing repair.
one of the arms are bent and a screw is loose.
Easy to fix...

A Taste for Violence
Sometimes, I’m still
nine years old and stood
in the hallway with
my eldest brother,
as our other brother’s
knocked about upstairs.
My eyes are wet.
My eldest brother smirks
in that manner of his,
an attitude he’ll always take to life.
You could make it stop, he says.
Dad likes you best.
I’m thirty now. And living on my own,
for once, I’ve slowly reached
a place of understanding that
I don’t like fights, or even raised voices.
When I was five or so years old
I got lost at a holiday camp.
I’d...

CenterFold Fantasy
Dear SKC5
May I fold you
And kiss your center?
Stir up your cream
And softly enter
With my tongue lick your Tootsie Pop
May I
Lavish your clit
with Worship non-stop?
Twist your legs
And clasp your knees
May I savor the nectar
Untasted by bees?
Pin your feet
Beside my face
Drink your full flow
No drops will waste
May I fold you
And kiss your center?
Stir up your cream
And softly enter
With my tongue lick your Tootsie Pop
May I
Lavish your clit
with Worship non-stop?
Twist your legs
And clasp your knees
May I savor the nectar
Untasted by bees?
Pin your feet
Beside my face
Drink your full flow
No drops will waste

My favorite book store
Walking in the door
to the tinkling of a bell
and the smell [heaven sent]
of paper, ink, and dust
books everywhere
organized in piles of chaos
new, recycled, and rare
sci-fi, westerns, and more
hallowed ground
the birth place of dreams
and ideas of the mind
old friends living in the pages
illuminating my life
offering an escape
to new universes
as seen through alien eyes
I am pulled out of my shell
into worlds of dreams
sitting for hours
in a musty old chair
shoved between...

We
You get wet off the poetry
I get high off the response
Herein lies the problem
How am I to stop writing for your approval
When making you feel
Deep things
And emotions,
Sexual thoughts
And devotions
My drug…
Is your growing desire for me
Your wanting
To have me
To be wanted
To be had,
the way the poetry
Explained in vivid detail
And before you know it
We find ourselves
In a predicament
That can only go 1 of 2...

Poet after poet
Poet after poet
written July 10th, 2021
Day by day, and poem by poem
my home and my life
fill with friends and lovers
who took the time to write to me
through the years and distances.
Jane Kenyon sits
on the corner of
my dining room table
a pool of calm
for me to dip into
anytime I need.
113 poets (I counted)
from Copper Canyon Press
are in residence between the covers
of The Gift of Tongues.
They enliven the desk where I write
always falling into respectable order
when I peak in...

a right old mouthful
I like to sit in the park
reading a book and possibly eating a sandwich,
and if you stop awhile
just to talk, I shan't apologise for any bad language ..

My First Poem
I used to write stories about real events
A girl called Michelle inspired me to write poems
She was writing in a notebook on the counter
Out of curiosity I asked her what she was writing
And she said that she was writing a poem
I told Michelle that I wanted to read it,
But at first she was reluctant to show it to me
She said that her poem was personal
I kept urging her to show me the poem
She handed me the notebook and I read it
Michelle's emotional writing impressed me
Her feelings of love were similar to mine
And I was...
