nivek
salted aroma of seaweed road
wind strewn journey for supplies;
one shop and six miles to go;
there and back-again, home.

Mrs Timetable
I can see the
Unfinished man
In pencil
That drawing that's missing
something  
The outline of you
The curves of you forming
But still not whole
Still seeing who you might be
What moves you make
I can even see where
You have been erased
Mistakes have been drawn over
Paper is worn a little
Even torn
But
I'll be patient
I'll wait
For you to fill in
Get your lines straight
For you to be complete

And
Drawn in ink
Inspired by my nieces incomplete anatomy drawings in pencil

Pen Lux
I live in California
but I'm afraid of the ocean,
I live in the mountains,
surfing the web,
spinning my webs,
catching flies,
discover lies,
say goodbyes.

sorry that I mislead you,
misread you.

wasted
I
wasted
so much time

blades of bright green
cutting deep
softened
and
dried up
into soft browns

the sky ceased to weep
a world of sun
blossoming
flowering
drying
and
dying
it's the children who are crying

Pen Lux
loosely gripped
onto plump lips
my pen shifts
supple movement
keeps me in the flow
as I shift from green stones
to the ocean: white and blue!

breaking down isn't an option
meditation and intention
spreading my wings with direction
