there is to laying
down
so low
is there’s not

a big drop
to the bottom. There’s
no place
to crop

in Autumn. It’s the
men on top
that have to stop. Those guys
have the longest

fall
when they’ve reached
the pinnacle
of it all.

It happens when life gets in my way,
that words in my head won't reach my hand,
they linger and fly away again,
on the soft breezes of hope and make-believe.

I never stopped making poems.
I only stopped writing them down
in the moments of silence, which have
become so scarce these days.

Tonight I've locked all windows.
I like to say that I put a pen in my hand,
but would you have believed that,
in these times of keyboards and touch screens?

So I sit here, staring at my screen and
slowly, very slowly my brain-hand coördiation
is gearing up, but it's like opening a rusty tap,
all that comes out is a bit of brownish water.

I've never had a
new years kiss, or an under
the mistletoe kiss.

But I have had
Hersey's kisses - which I think
are spectacular!
There are so many holiday treats - has anyone enjoyed them ALL?

hiding scars of past,
like seabed’s buried shipwrecks
skeletons from battles savage,
he stays on course, and
everyone’s convinced
it’s smooth sailing,
like tranquil sea.

Visions of belonging held fast inside my heart
I want to be accepted for who I am my Lord
but all they see is a he she, and a shifty ****  
even in the days of old, only men wore swords
time has changed but not re-arranged their ways
yesterday appearing same, a cornucopia of straight
today we have the trans, lesbians, gays
and those serving up, fear and utter hate
I love the feel of lingerie God, so why can't I ?
my heart is red like theirs, it pumps, it hurts
I shed so many tears I've forgotten how to cry  
can you love me just like this, without revert?
Sitting on this pew I've come to realize all I do is flee
and although your son was crucified at thirty three  
I'm still here Father, .. you made me like I am  
my heart is red like theirs, I suffer when I can't be me.

This morning,
I am a mourning sunflower

Willing to burn than
lose my deity’s warmth

All on my own
Sipping on fine warm wine
Sitting, thinking
I’m all written out
The world is all mine
Staring at my last tiny line
