The doctor told me it was boredom
she refuses to replenish her mind.
When one uses up what's there
they put themselves in a bind.
Emptiness causes craves
for anything to make them feel. . . . more

Ok, what shall I talk about today
so many topics I can easily cover.
Some seem like a passing video
others linger on as if they hover.
I could speak about politics
but it upsets so many readers . . . more

Your words gripped the soul
forced me to think some more
said my shadow would be shed
my heart dropped to the floor.
Seems that chasm got wider
as broad as the deep blue sea.
Oh, but I'll . . . more

A recollection from before
Oh, I saw the ecliptic sky
reflected thru your eye
and every delectable sight
was like love taking a bite.
O Beloved, your existance
more brilliant than . . . more

What! What happened to you?
Somebody beat you up with a rifle?
Oh, my goodness, lady
that's a lot more than trifle.
It's hard to think about
you should feel blessed.
They could have . . . more

At times I get besides myself
can't get a hold of the power.
It rakes me like long finger nails
building by the moment and hour.
It excites my every body cell
feet and arms in uncontrolled . . . more

You degraded me
with homogeneous mixtures—
too much androgen cheese
was added to testosterone burgers
and I was ostracized,
cut from society’s happy meals
and thrown into waste bins.
Value . . . more

I try you on in the store
the way I would try on
an expensive leather coat or
a pair of high heeled boots,
mulling over the decision
in front of a mirror
and the sales lady,
wondering . . . more

If you were here right now,
standing right in front of me,
I would kiss you.
I would plant one on you
that would steal your breath
as it burned into your memory.
Lip to lip, and hip to hip,
my arms would . . . more

Grapefruit sliced in two
takes sweet revenge against me;
squirts juice in my eye.

You say my eyes are pools that you can get lost in,
deep as an ocean with windows directly to my soul.
You could stare into them forever, or so you claim,
with your clichéd advances that seem to . . . more

We've come to the end
of a beautiful relationship;
right now, I just want you to know
the fact that it is ending
takes nothing away from its beauty
and its very special meaning to me.
I've loved . . . more

Heaven rests in your eyes,
while grace is in your touch.
You love every inch of them,
and covet just as much.
To be loyal and submissive
is to love you,
every kiss laced with a promise,
every gesture . . . more

dead center summer,
she walked through fields
with eyes cast down
trying not to step
on last minute crickets
or fluttery moths.
it was mid-July,
with dry heat sun-baking
mud on . . . more

Skeletons and lost love,
it's all just a part of the day.
The tears won't dry up,
they never choose to fade.
I freeze in front of the mirror.
My face looks older day by day.
My reflection . . . more

Grab angst by its crinkled throat and take it in,
dissolve it, chew on its bones
and maybe it will disappear
for reader and writer.
Take sinewy, sultry lines,
and dance with them
until your midnight . . . more

There was something that I wanted to say,
Not today, but yesturday.
I did not act fast enough where now its lost amongst the rough.
Gone from me, lost in the sea, twisted and no longer what it . . . more

I crushed two stars in my hand
and laughed at the massacre of wishes;
I wanted to be high on dreams,
snorting stardust like cocaine and
making a wish every time I hit a line.
They didn’t come . . . more

If we passed each other on the street,
I probably wouldn’t look twice
at you, or give you a second thought.
You’re just another name flashing
across my computer screen.
But you . . . more

Tears falling
in an ocean of blue ink.
I'm drowning in my head.
Arms flailing,
splashing words on these pages,
but nothing I have said.
Pulled under,
submerged in my confusion.
I'm breathing . . . more
