Handle and Key
You are your own handle to doors that you pass through in and out of life. You also put a lock on to keep you safe. You are the only set of keys to you and all your furnishings from the rug to the wonky chair. You keep it as a reminder that being ins’t about perfection a nip and tuck doesn’t make up for how you feel and what’s wrong with being unique at least you are being real. You are selective not selfish to who you open doors too. You could count those chosen few on one hand. They are the most precious possessions you have like artwork hanging on your walls each a bit of Picasso from the...

DARE TO FIGHT FEAR
THERE
is no way of knowing
how much wonder, pleasure,
and amazing discoveries will
come to a person who dares to
step out of their closet
of fear, cast of the shackles ,
and saying yes to a gift that
is freely waiting to be consumed.
THE
dare to touch, to taste, to enter,
to explore, and more secret desires
will burst forth like a new rose
in the Spring.
Meet me at the Kissing
Place and we'll escape
the prison of fear together.
YES,
even that prison.

THE BEAUTY TRAP
I'VE HEARD
all the glib and
serious remarks
about beauty as related
to women:
"Beauty is only skin deep."
"Beauty is in the eyes
of the beholder."
"Beauty may be in the eyes
but ugly is bone deep."
YEARS
ago I dated a woman
who won a national
beauty queen contest.
My chest was swollen
and I was the envy of others
BUT
in time I discovered she was
really "ugly" because of what
was in her heart manifested
in her racial remarks, putdowns

INSIDE ROARE
(from the river to the springs part four last)

Like a miracle of solid stone,
where do you get the strength to find your way out.
I'll come again where the sun rises
to your spring where I welcome the new day.
Different every time even though it seems the same to me
it's your music and i'm listening to it
As a tree its roots,
so I have my sources.
Where you say "I don't believe"
that's exactly where I come from and will continue.
I want to keep on giving the life
for...

The true beauty of Woman
Maybe men mistake the power of femininity,
For they harbor judgments that fail to see,
Some hate older women, blind to their wisdom,
Viewing them as young, in their own delusion.
Skin colors, some despise, preferring between,
Missing the beauty in each vibrant sheen.
They label him skinny or fat, blind to his essence,
Reducing worth to mere physical presence.
Prostitutes they call liberated women,
Unaware of the freedom they have striven.
Complex, they label independent souls,
Ignoring the strength that within them unfolds. ...

a glass of water
A glass of water
He got up late and thought of coffee,
he had to drink it in black
Forgot to buy milk yesterday because it was raining
which is good news, hotels in the Algarve, tourists can shower every
Water, water everywhere, most of it in undrinkable
he spent years at sea on ships of ennui and boredom
except when his ship birthed and a life of adventures
that lasted all too short.
with a glass of water in his hand, looks out of
of the bedroom window, and there, a bite further along
is the glittering sea, as he knows how...

You have to make you feel better.
I know it's not brilliant.
I know it's not correct.
But it is what it is.
I've never claimed to be sugar plum treats,
encased in salty caramel,vanilla,cinnamon,hot pepper sauce,biting taste.Someone,
Never taking responsibility, accountability,
in my days of weakness,
Which really is life experience, showing me.
Telling me.
Look within,to begin with. You dont owe nobody. Send heartfelt apology,to anyone you've hurt. And forgive yourself unapologetically. Cos you've made transformations in your life.
I am not responsible for people...

Love is Insane.
To feel arms that want to hold you.
To be kissed and feel it.
To be missed and appreciated.
To be smiled at in that secret way
It’s you and me against the world.
To adore a face and a voice as they say your name and you can uncannily hear it miles away.
To think about them and wonder if, they are thinking about you at the same time and be consumed.
To watch the clock tick tock until the end of the day no more work with them it’s just play.
These little things all encompass the characteristics of love.
How euphoric it is to find...
To be kissed and feel it.
To be missed and appreciated.
To be smiled at in that secret way
It’s you and me against the world.
To adore a face and a voice as they say your name and you can uncannily hear it miles away.
To think about them and wonder if, they are thinking about you at the same time and be consumed.
To watch the clock tick tock until the end of the day no more work with them it’s just play.
These little things all encompass the characteristics of love.
How euphoric it is to find...

Silk fuchsia ponytail.
I would cut myself into silk fuchsia ribbons to gift you colour when you only see darkness. In those moments I know you think too much about the past and how you live with regret. How your feelings are muffled into shapes and shadows that looks like you and follow you but doesn’t allow the sun sets. You are not your mistakes or your fears you are just stuck in illusions. The darkness isn’t your friend it just wants to keep you in the shade. How can you grow without the sun and the rain and hazy days. Take the ribbons tie them in your high ponytail as a reminder. Kindness and self compassion...

Slow Burn .
Slow hands slow walks slow smiles and slow considered words spoken with thoughtfulness. How slow time works. How you see everything it's not just a flash in the pan. How you can see the stars hung as a serenade of heaven's backdrop to be a supporting act to a chorus of stars and the black hole of mediocrity just the same and take it not being swept away to much by either. How you don't get too carried away in your own dreams and all your sacrifices and not face the reality of a world which is made of more than you and I want . It’s you and I a two who learns the formula of one plus one...

if i could see you again *
if i
could see
you again
for the
first time,
two people
broken
somewhere
then proceed,
starving,
in her
white
cotton dress,
feeling it
against
her ankles,
when i
come home.

honest desires
ask me again
what is it I desire from you
it's as simple {& complicated} as love
I desire your touch
in places much in need of cleansing
on flesh hungry for passion as deep as your imagination
caress the dark corners
until they glow with the burn of it
sink your teeth into my aching need
& leave your mark in its place
whisper into the gale of my tempest
& watch all movement still at the sound
I will hear you...above all else
I long to see you soar
wild upon the updrafts & currents of your dreams ...
what is it I desire from you
