Awakening
I love the ritual –
lift the cover,
reach for the light.
A snap, crackle and pop
loosens the bindings.
Smell of fresh ink
upon the sheets,
as I sip fresh-brewed coffee.

My Spirit is an Enigma
Of Light and Dark
Seeing beams and shadows
Of experiences
In simultaneous dreams.

I've been palying around with sonnets the last few months. Here is an early one.
One thing I fear in all the earth.
It is not death, I dread not grave or ground,
My trust . . . more

Desert Mind Movies
Chartreuse mountains erupt
from deep within the terrain,
red mist rises from
cold black sargasso sea.
Gibbous moon slips through
gnarled fingers of ancient elm,
home of the buzzard . . . more

Winter Rain
An icy rain of
frozen crow spit
dances on my umbrella
as I splash
down the street
on my way home.

Friday Night on River Street
Beth and I stroll
River Street
embedding the roaches
into cobblestone caskets.
Bahama Mamas and

clutched in our hands,
we lounge on benches . . . more

January War
I survive on rations
of orange juice
and peanut butter saltines
as I lie in the trenches
between the covers
of my bed
fighting for sleep.
Medicated hallucinations,
an army of germ . . . more

A Love Poem... Sort Of
I love your brain
the winding corridors
and dust-coated thoughts
yielding treasures at every turn
Unlock the secret door
I want to come in
and be
the only picture in your mind... . . . more

Untitled Love Poem
I reach out
across the night
between the stars
searching for you...
My heart is empty
growing cold with your absence
crying out into the darkness
and receiving no response
I need . . . more

Jam at the Spectrum
I dance among cigarette smoke
and beer puddles
as hot bodies writhe and wriggle
around me,
rivulets of sweat stream
down foreheads to mat hair
to sweltering skin.
Red and green . . . more

Gertrude and William
Two Canadian geese
with downy grey bodies
and black feathered eyes
huddle the curve
of a tractor tire,
out of the snow.
We prepare a straw bed for them
and scatter yellow seed . . . more

Madame Zolaria
In a candlelit room,
an older woman sits
dressed in fringed red scarves
and quartz crystals.
Jasmine incense
ribbons into smoke
that dances among
the frayed lace curtains.

December
An Ohio wind
gashes my skin
with icicle teeth,
freezes my grey heart
in still beats
while treeless leaves
peek through
new fallen drifts
and I shiver
into the warmth
of teddy bear slippers . . . more

Acids rain down in my eyes
Blinding my defenses
I find it hard to see the sky
With the street the shade of gray it is
From angry voices from the heads of
Such a disillusioned crowd
Shouting in darkness . . . more
