Something in me tightened like a fist. Tears. walk. Desire to rebuild your soul. Ha! I am like those women who think naked shoulders & transparent negligées can fix a broken heart. Instincts of a simple worshiper of reality. Yet I love you.

Silent Secrets ©🌻

He was the eye of deceptions, the apple of my
eye this red-hot summer. And
they who reveal their lies craft
but a beautiful distraction that
front-center in memory
where dance in silent secrets.✍🏽#vss365

My poetry is the realm of the unfulfilled, the voice of the blood on the feet of the prophet, the body of a Sunday that forgot to put walnuts in its baklava, the upon which you forgot to make a wish.
It's us left to the mercy of an inexplicable love.

I'd prayed on graceful wraiths to swing my cold body to hands warm like the dandelion ropes I used to leave in the sun--but knew sacrifices spidered our town & "helpers" would sooner suck blood off entrails axed & skewered in selfishness. 3

I was born on an day that has no saint assigned. I am the quintessence of that which you will always desire. I wrap a piece of a burned candle around grapes & loves born out of pity. Lizards run at my feet.
Under my chest the bleeds an ochre laughter.

It was an ordinary day as so many,
When the decided
To cajole a mass of luxurious curls,
Revealing exquisite features.
He froze as he stared
At the stormy eyes
Behind lush lashes.
And Love hit him with the force of a hurricane
Splitting his in two halves..

ALONE
When Irish Gran died, Grandpa was lost and completely bereft. He tried to carry on with routines, like tending the garden, cleaning the car and sitting in his chair at night to read or listen to the radio.

It was unbearable to see him; a of his former self.#vss365

Timothy may have been a priest
but at night became a beast.
Predominantly
his body all green and muscular
on Yorkshire folk would feast.

using the alphabet of stars, in your calendar,
like a party drug, I am… a mysterious moon
written and portrayed in an any day's caprice
tactically as you sing in my crepuscular zone
indifferent what season could be felt in you

He said he'd "aim"
to see his daughter
but that wasn't good
enough

one sorrowful morning
her deadbeat father
taught her that life can
be tough

The entire town watched in awe, as a group of overjoyed teens climbed up an endless ladder, rising up into the soft moonlight, onto a fluffy cloud.
"What are you so happy about?" asked an elder.
"Well, we never for the stars. But we did want a piece of our own sky"

Do not fret, my love
The war is nearly over
Soon, we will be wed

Breathing her scent
Lips grazing her nape
Jotting fervent scribbles
Amongst fawny curls
Crumhorn echoes
Haunted hallelujahs
Brash pulse quickens
Sudden regret, fears
Shivering whimpers
His hand gentle touch
Coalescing lust and trust
One and the same, as we must.

I met you in a life. Perhaps, on another planet, in another galaxy. I remember, but only hazily. In that life, we were free to explore what we felt for each other in boundless ways. Now, we are by earthly boundaries. I wish it wasn't so.

Prior to the genesis of vaccines, darkness reigned as pestilence spread like wild fire & infected entire populations. Families watched helplessly as loved ones succumbed to the ravages of disease, praying for a cure.
There is one. You just need to come into the light.

Copycats—they
troll the Internet
on one front
to give bad
filled with lies & eyes
that despise—then try to
scoop the truth, but run
with
roots that form WEEDS!✍️🏽

Seeking serenity he chose to
alight from the train

leaving yesterday's ghost behind

he ascended into a forest
escaping his fiendish problems
