19 I'm living among the stars, thriving in foreign soil.
Spun a thread of dust, Caught a whiff of the sea. Shadows of a canyon at dusk, Bleeds into day-old tea. A tapestry of bereavements, Beached ashore a gulf, Its waves, tepid and rough, Rippled the sun, it reflects. Aged wood, floating, covered in cloth, Pushed to touch horizons, wet and vast. Aimed to dissolve with the setting sun, Steered by the stars he used to follow.

A Seafarer's Wake
The clock’s hands arrested At the time our lips came. The blood rushing in our temples Overcame the ticking. The air hurried into silence As our hearts synced, beating. The rift coming between us Traced back and forth, rekindling. Bother flees our skin And doubt sinks in quicksand. For sure, for certain, As your fingers navigate Every wrinkle in my hand, And I catch your shoulder, Yet to be chiseled, for wars, From the weight of a gun, Full of light, you let pass, Piercing through, Peering for my soul, Searching for each crevice To comfort and assure. Your other hand, Driven unto madness Of an unrelenting encore, Scouring for the ungrasped And the worded whispers To beg earnestly for. … And time up on his chamber Painted pictures just to remember That moment he arrested his hands To give two lovers an unafflicted chance…

An Unafflicted Chance
a space, sacred, free from unwell; breaking bread with time's whim, and explore the unsaid, of what can possible bring, or the imagined regret of an unarrived spring.

i lend myself
I've always feared That all this love I give is for nothing Then, I faced death, her warmest embrace she w h i s p e r s to me "That love isn't for nothing, of all the life I can take out, of this universe and beyond," "there is only one thing I cannot **** "love"

At Death's Door: The Nth Time
Paint the skies blue, And touch the heavens. See the truth in hue; Skin, delicate feathers. Smooth as a storm, Tough as marbled form. Smile wide like Great-whites, Dimples rind from walnut barks. Glasses firm, sitting on a bridge, Above the rims are bowed ridges. Dark and thick Fine and slick.

Never Knew Love Like This Before...
tear me apart, like roughened stained glass, ‘cause I’m not of paper, instead, I’m of sand from the shores of your heart, embered from the fluid of your ******* blood.

handle with care
Cherry Cola sizzling, At 90, we were driving. The winds roared in a whisper As our lips smiled crisper. I have never thought of loving, To the point of no returning. I loved Cherry-Flavored Cola, Used to, Love Cherry-Flavored Cola.

"I love Cherry-Flavored Cola"
Like a song, I waited to be heard, Till' they lent their ears and offered The gift to listen to a voice That gave clear insight from all the noise. Throughout the epochs of hearsay, Eons of complete mental disarray, Ages of false images, And unclear periods of distress. At last, my voice was hearkened. The truth has soared and shined, To illuminate the path for the blind To enlighten the false that had me bound.
