balance

so I seek the balance point
/ to speak my truth – and listen

catching up

This is how It Is.

slow dance

she tends with love. dirt-covered hands
- still painful – cleansing the insides, to her soul’s very depths, as only fertile soil can.

solutionizing

white wine and a friend
/ solve world problems together

Wayfarer

Wayfaring sounds romantic, but wander too long, you may get lost.

Tattoo

a change on the inside
/ made outside
/ more tellable

Epicenter-2007

It didn’t start there, and it would not end there, but I now recognize the events of that day as my life’s epicenter.

the key

sometimes what lies behind
portals with padlocks will scare
you so much that you think you will die…

joysong interrupted

wrens laid eggs
/ in the coop.
/ sang
/ almost
/ constantly.

don’t even try (the cult)

Don’t ever think / unless MY think you think.

I kept (it) to myself

I kept (it) to myself /
oh, so long – for far too long…

elusive

oh, I know they are out there somewhere…
