Frenzy Redressed (poem)

Frenzy Redressed

Daring

To wear red

Your explosion

Hidden within

That dark aura

No one else knows

Knowing Without (poem)

Knowing Without

She has no cause

For differing flowers and tunes

Content to stay

In her own little heaven

Daisies and violins

Her summery season

Of bewilderment

Shredded (poem)

Shredded

You inhaled my words

And spat them back out

With your paper shredder tongue

Until I held a handful of my nothingness

Tintype (poem)

Tintype

Soon

Going the way of nostalgia

Relying on used to be’s

Photos without a soul

Recalling a life

That really wasn’t

So apparent

At the Pond (poem)

At the Pond

Temporary rain

Quiet the muses

Rake them into circles

Because one day

Leaves will be trapped

Beneath the ice

Sea Glass (poem)

Sea Glass

Tumbled and natural

My blues and greens

Genuine

Sky and earth

Buoyant and grounded

It’s the Bohemia,

An open-hearted myriad of presence,

That scares you

Birthmark Earth (poem)

Birthmark Earth

Brown spatter

An identifiable view

Hill upon hill

A burnt toasted spot

Yet

Owning the crowning waves
