I can describe to you what the sky looked like It was blue without a cloud to speak of I can describe to you what the water was like It was brown and full of fish I can describe to you what he looks like His hair is black, his eyes are blue I can describe to you what the weather was like It was brisk with almost no wind I can’t describe how I lost that time I can’t describe how I lose the days Time is a figment of imagination Time is simply put there for a measure It’s a measure of how long you hurt It’s a measure of how long you love It’s a measure of how long your love has been lost

Time
Coffee cakes filled with maliciousness and cinnamon You laugh with a squished up face And say “…and cinnamon” In a teasing tone A muse to me Perhaps a muse To thee Partner’s in crime Non. Non. Partner’s in art

Cold and broken In silence you can hear the cry Hearts that bruised Broke Crumpled HARDENED The slutty little do - gooder, the narcissistic manipulator that’s who we are Feeling the way EXTREME Maybe What happened to art? What happened to love? What happened to *** What happened to the art in love? Repeat repeat repeat… How far will you let me go? This is a test! Instructions WILL NOT follow! I hope you make it Just breathe Just breathe Just breathe Sway and bend Waiting for you to turn me on Janis you had it right “I’d be so good to you baby” What do you want from me? I can feel you from here Say yes, yes, yes, YES Open to a new page, I’ll take the chance It’s worth the consequence It’s all gonna be all right We’ll get some glue Unfold a little slowly Take the bandages off Silence becomes music

Annoyed
Everyday there are moles Lifeless rodents Strewn about like some cat massacre Sheba! Sheba is who brings theses gifts Hunting at night Leaving presents to be admired What does she think about while in this pursuit of mole families? Does she think? Once, I saw a mouse being killed… Today there were two Yesterday one Last week there were five on the patio I wonder if there are warnings out in the mole community? “Serial mole killings” they might say Do they fear the dark now? Dead moles, dead mice Just death

Dead Moles
Flowers carelessly tossed to the ground Broken heart, anger, say you’re sorry Discarded and left to die There they lay in perfect form, Free from trampling Silently suffering the woes of another Ripped from life, ripped from love Returning to the ground from which they came

Death of a Flower
Sometimes it makes me feel like Dr. Seuss What’s that word…oh ya moose It’s a good way to teach the little one And it is a whole lot of …uh….fun I think that it makes it easier to read It adds rhythm and speed I sing it like a song Ya maybe that’s wrong Who would have thought who knew? I would rhyme poetry for YOU I can’t think of topic so I’ll stop Or else I’ll recite “Hop on Pop” So I’ll leave with this treat About flowers so sweet Bright yellow and orange… Huh, oh ya nothing rhymes with orange

Rhyming
I close my eyes And I see his I take a deep breath And I breathe his air I stretch my tongue passed my lips And I can taste his Primitive dance of the hunters Drums start beating He leaps, I lunge. Drumbeat quickens I snarl, he growls. Pounding rapid strikes of the drums Lust explodes The flesh and the fur torn from our bodies We wrestle on the ground in hunger Can’t fight the rising fire within Sweat and blood dripping Writhing and howling The beast will not be put down

Night Creature
Lost, contemplating Searching for answers he can not see Answers that are buried deep Who will take a peek? Afraid to fly, afraid to fall Possibilities for all Listen close you will hear the whisper Will he kiss her?

Stacey is drunk, not quite, but very mellow The night is lame We missed the show How could we know? Steph is forever in the bathroom Is she sleeping? Does the toilet offer her comfort? Quiet in a room full of noise Just a spectator
