Sometimes I sleep
sixteen hours at a time.

My body catching up
with my

dreams

This is the TRUTH.
I slept the day away yesterday!
I work days at a time
then
CRASH!!!

Don't look back, love -
the past only brings bad luck.
Summer on the lips of spring
Sweet scents wafting, blossoms bring
Underground into the sun
Voices, refreshed, nature sing

I opened the blinds.
I took a deep breath.
I reminded myself that I exist.
I let you go.

It was a routine morning.
I arose to the
subtle scent of a skein
of moist desert
her
weathered brown cheeks
slightly dewed with
tears

The company of
mute
charcoal
clouds cluster

conspiring

but never consumating
the JOY of
happily wedded bliss

the fruitful mating
of
earth and heaven

RAIN.

The earth recieved
only a wet kiss
and the sky

wept

softly

We are having a
terrible drought in the
desert southwest
You drew a heart
with your pen...

... on paper skin.

Regarding the poem "Liberated"
By Post Scriptum
Brightest light of pupil
Lens of isinglass
Lashes fringe your shutters
Vision becomes flask.

Sparse your recollections
Copious your thought
You give away your images
Your mind completely fraught.

In small glassine packets
They are completely free
But though you've eyes to view them

Still you do not see.

I was going through
a period of denial.
