She's lived by the sea all her life, & watched the coastline little by little. An empty beach gave way to vacationers, eateries came in, a casino was built. She couldn't do much but her house does find place for seashells & starfish that can't find their way back.

To stop that, that hurt’s us
Is fundamental is it not?
Yet defy’s this
&affects each&everyone

All unique-yet similar

There is no one answer
2 ways
Oh it was that simple!
But to ask

What is the true issue?

Perhaps that may start
The road 2

Stabbing through us
Poison that still lingers
tension obscuring love
Heart break.

Behind the curtain, the stirred. Around them, the mist thickened until it was impossible to see anything. Two red glowing eyes shone like beacons and then a deep baritone voice called out their names

“Lissa, Connel, come forward.”

Couldn't keep hands to herself
Warned her, others are watching
Including an elf on the shelf
Said she'd felt my
I demanded she left them alone
Elf made innuendo
Told him to sod off home
Future prediction
Forceful elf eviction

of fate
plunged deep in my heart
all dreams
tearing my soul apart;

I bled alone
on a dark path
gathering myself
tending wounded parts;

today as I recall
these memories of past
I find my skin is healed
but how long will this pain last?

He lights my flame with
a spark of delight while
memories flicker
of no but a tender
heart outright—as love ignites
during talk, and passions
hang like vines on a stalk.✍🏽#vss365

When she fell pregnant he told her depression was Said the baby could end up just like her.

He insisted on tests for every “imperfection” under the sun.

Only if the baby returned pristine results would it be of his love.

Suddenly, it all made sense.#vss365

I cut myself a sharp slice of reality
Stare at the on my phone
A the one I've been waiting for
After hopeless months in this of despair
I pop some to take away the pain
Tomorrow I'm getting a new heart

in my heart
are her photographs
painted with my feelings
exhilarating & healing;
I unveil these sometimes
recalling times
when life was a dream
loving her, the only theme;
scripted with of longings
they’re my only belongings.

Abstract vulnerability
a childlike lens
bending images
of final Autumn days
The white winds
of Winter
breathing frozen fury
across forests
of forgetting
Icy hypnotism
in a mind
full of matters
Burnished red and gold
still searching
for answers
while breaking the mold

Gangster
Got a golem
To collect his debts
For free

He stuck
Edicts
On its head—
A

I wrote it
New instructions
And now it works
For me

Golem crammed
With scam commands,
I’ve hijacked
Skillfully

It’s chasing
That dumb gangster
From sea
To shining sea…

Dawn slips,arms of night
falls ashen & dull
mist'g my brow

her nippy palms,cup my ears
ruckus of cicadas
astir in owl-light
scatters

I walk in her dewy arms
sip calm off her hands
sing her nascent bird song

she stretches her amaranthine talma
gifts me
day
anew

Blue peacocks shine sapphire,
You knew I would come tonight,
Mine I thought!
You were created for me,
I feel no in claiming,
What has always been mine,
I don’t wish for immortal love,
I want to live that love,
Take my hands,
Let me lie in your shade,
You did…

The trend of fingertips
to reach
voices of thin veil souls
in communities
feel no love of
garage bands or
grease monkey oil changers
Cherubs sound laughter
bounces no more off shingles
& bike chains
Rabbit holes replace
tomato gardens
