feeling alive feels like
yellow flowers growing in my bones
and blooming on my skin
it feels like the sun rises
not in the east
but from within me

the word
that everyone
needs to know

no matter what,where
it fills the air

in the night
when the lights are off
the shadows are creeping
and find everything out

so beautiful it might be fiction
the nerve-wracking tension

between us
me and you
there is nothing
I wouldn't do

that is how strong
my love is
for you
in the middle of the night it came in my mind
hope you like it

as rain brusquely clears a
window's record, and a screen
grays the glinting heads of
drops.
as the bacon-brittle bars of a
fire escape press against the
dully scratched green of
distant trees.
melancholy skims the ears,
sews shut their fetal-shaped
holes.

You're right. It wasn't yours.
They're just words
written on an idle Tuesday
and I need you
to leave me
alone.
We can never speak.
My heart belongs
entirely
to someone else.
I'm completely serious.
Desert clean
Purified by the sun's gleam

Sand . . .
in my eyes , nose and mouth

Temperature rising
as I head South

The unbearable burdens
thrown aside

I stumble on
trying to survive

No compass to bear
the sun will show

The choices I made
the resounding No's

Will be purified
Buried in sands of gold

Life is too short,
even when the days






are long.

Stretching far
For temptations clearly seen
Mindless as can be
Like a flower barely touching water
