"fenceless" poems
Here we go, the phone rings
Won't you let me be?
You never get my rhetorical questions
Anyway...
Away from you, my heart sings
Can't I be free?
I'll be on a fenceless pasture, a horse eating
Hey,
My soul yearns for only her
Will not your own eyes see?
Our love lacked traction and spontaneity,
a Seattle rainy day.

I don't know
How to say
That I'm okay with tearing down these fences
And letting you
Stroll on through
Because bit by bit,
As you kiss my neck,
In my half-asleep stupor
I hear you whisper
"My sleeping beauty"
And I start to forget the mirror's lies.
As you gaze into my wide eyes,
Turn the radio down
And say it clear as the starry night,
"I love you."
I think there's something
In me you might see.
Though we're polar opposites,
(You speak your mind
While I think 2 or 3 times.
You devour steak
While I glower with hate),
Our witty arguments
Can't wipe my cheesy grin.
So clear my head
Because I can't forget
How your warm arms feel
Wrapped around my waist
And just how great
Your sweet kisses taste.
Sit here in my place
When the top's down on a cloudless day
You're singing above the bass,
The brightness showers your face
Lie here in my place,
While your deep stare
Steals my breath away.
With you,
Is a good way to begin again:
Fenceless.

I love her wild abandon
So many untamed horses
Fenceless and uncorralled
For a while I ran with her
Looking to catch her eye
She just ran away
Trailing laughter
I heard her distant drumbeats
With their sacred rhythms
Deep into the earth
And deep into my soul
I clutch and grasp
Trying to capture
Midnight thistle down
That dances
On the warm, invisible, breeze
And where shall it land
When it's slipped from my hand
Taking with it
All my secret dreams
.....And I laugh
They always dance away
But I am content....
For the briefest moment
I lived among the footfalls
Wondering where the thistle down had gone
Silently.....silently
Almost unnoticed
It came to rest
Amidst the drumbeats.....
Inside my heart

Don’t want this life
Don’t need this life
Never asked for it
Can’t escape
Fenceless prisoner
Life sentence
Gone baby
Gone

Sometimes,
I wish to see myself
in somebody else's shoes
I wish to not be myself
I wish to disappear
To a place
where my face and thoughts
Can't be seen or heard
Sometimes,
I long to know
What it feels like
To be in my own shoes
To be safe,
To feel safe, in my space
My fenceless shelter
A home without a roof

launched Meghan Markle into royalty
American divorcee
catapulted from “AA” to “Zed”
at break neck speed, and with cachet wed
Prince Harry, and soon
twill begetting, bestowing,
and bewitching her
chromo somal thread
(complementing, furthering, and
weaving together "Quod Erat
Demonstrandum", or QED
for short) within United Kingdom
coat of arms, perhaps
naming the first heir Ned,
and according one online
dictionary definition and ken
translates as French
(Old English) name Eadmund,
meaning rich or happy,
and protective akin
to a mother hen,
not just mollycoddling
hatchlings, but even
shelling out care
on a wing and a prayer
long after offspring
fly the coop and been
fending for themselves,
perhaps merely earning
chicken scratch wage,
assigning doomed fate,
sans cooked usage
if perchance "chick(s)"
go thru a foul stage
within their duff
fenceless hierarchy,
where pecking order doth rage
worse case scenario, would presage
finding errant peep(s)
sent to gaol,
not much bigger than a bird cage,
unless they comprise
noble henny age,
ideally taken in as a pet
by newly bridled
Duchess of Sussex
treated like totally
tubularly true blue blood
with opulent accommodations
(cheaply) tricked out
with life size Tyrannosaurus Rex
(spoiler alert: actually done
with special effe Hex
with latest computer graphics
showing rippling reptiles flex
sing and holo
graphic smoky mirrors)
intending "FAKE"
balances and checks
to boondoggle aggressive paparazzi,
one of whom includes
Meghan Markle's ex.
