-
dearest cat,
where is your hat?
-
awoke the morning unexpected
lacking snow and time enough
-
chronicle my immolation or join me in the fire
-
I knew a puzzle once;
she was difficult–
-
-
a harvest moon
still overhead
-
knees straining
livid against the world
-
At some convenient time
you might gather round
-
I hid the rhythms of my heart
measures apart,
-
in love so soft and fine as this
I still might find repose
-
-
-
remember:
kindergarten love-
-
When all that supports it
is dug out from under,
-
along the folds
desire spoke
-
epiphany had come
soft as a lover
-
lock eyes & find a bully
beating hearts
-
someday we'll find the meaning of life
-
weak unchanging steps
scuff worlds away,
-
-
-
The great I-Am held up a soul,
an angel sweetly kissed,
-
but darkness never earned its keep
and terror faced me twice as hard
-
the end of that summer
was a conquest for Love
-
nothing touches
contact is a lie
-
-
in all my time I've found it rare
to find a man without despair
-
-
be not a son of Adam
the wise man said to me
-
There once was a dragon
with forest green scales
-
in this moment I am breathless
like some shining sea has filled my chest
-
swallowing the cratered pill
and dancing in its dome
-
-
please - for the love of God -
-
condemned beneath the tree
