One day my song will touch your forehead
Kissing your soul
Today is not that day.
One day my words will whisper in your ears
Touching your spirit
Today is not that day. . . . more

aged abandoned, stripped to black hovel

Tea on the tombstone
Crumbs in your hair
The blanket crushes chopped down grass
Scones are piled with care
You don’t drink
You don’t eat
You just watch and smile
Until I put you

I didn't think I wanted you
Didn't think I needed to
What makes me hold back,
What makes me afraid--

And then what would I do,

A muse
Eyes a light
Laugh and I will laugh too
Cry and I will pour my secrets
Like I pour wine into your empty glass
While you make lies a wish I write
Lines a memory scratched . . . more

too hard at the paper garbage bag
blowing across the street

now their stuff is squirreled away
and they . . . more

I grew up on a farm that was rather exhausting and dull.

it is all scheduled to end
tunics, chain mail, big horses

THE TALE OF THE VINE
The vine climbed the drain
It wanted to hear the man play Bach
The man finally died of old age
The vine, it stayed, and the stone silence
Turned it yellow and cold

This bed of mine
Half empty without you
Warm side, my side, cold side, your side
Can I forgive you leaving me alone?
Strong one, mine was, weak one, yours . . . more
