My Tiny Window – November 22, 2019
Laying atop, sinking in To these soft covers Velvety fur caresses my skin Watching the world Stand still. A dark thump Hits hard and falls. The nothingness That stands in its way Reflecting light Bouncing Shapes That define something That is never Really There. How many looking glasses Stand in our way Of moving forward … Continue reading My Tiny Window – November 22, 2019
Step Away – October 2, 2019
Your unconcern Wrapped me in twine. I could not move For so long I stood there Waiting Right next to you Wasting the time I’d been given Too stupefied To take that step Away. On this boat Afraid to sink Thinking... Jumping I would surely drown.
Adrift – October 12, 2019
I’ve laced my words with yearning, I feel it so clearly. You refuse to see, As we set ourselves adrift.
I Bob – November 14, 2019
You take me there Right where I want to be A safety net pulled tight Luring me in from the depths Of where I live Still sinking Or am I bobbing Days changing motion At the curve of each curl Twisting between my fingers Never Letting go But moving on to the next The release … Continue reading I Bob – November 14, 2019
I’ll Always Be Stronger – November 15, 2019
My waves crash upon your shore With a beating You will not survive. You must run from me, And never look back. Take what you have left, Or this sweet surrender Will tear you down Leaving behind shreds of your being Scattered in my sand. Unrecognizable, To my heart. It’s up to you, But I’ll … Continue reading I’ll Always Be Stronger – November 15, 2019
Mornings With You – October 9, 2019
Where does the warm water run, When I can feel the chill of your edge. The ups and downs Of where you take me Is bordering on Insanity. I feel the room, And you are here Beating a drum in my head. Over again, It’s so loud We both want to scream. And rid the … Continue reading Mornings With You – October 9, 2019
Talking to you…11/15/19
From my discovery of the song, Falling Slowly, I came across the movie “Once”. It’s a love story that is completely ordinary, but out of this world at the same time. Life can feel so mundane unless you choose to see the beauty in the little things even if they only last for a brief … Continue reading Talking to you…11/15/19
Constant Hum – November 10, 2019
Photo by Ari Words step in front of me A distraction The constant hum Silenced in the movement of life To be forgotten Slightly Just enough To know there was once something there.

What do you think about the concept … Continue reading Nothing Is, As It Seems – November 3, 2019
Nothing Part 1 – November 3, 2019
Nothing Flatlines Because it’s no more Than nothing. Life ceases to roll To wrap around anything You tinker and you toy Playing with So much more Than What it is.
Nothing Part 2 – November 3, 2019
Sketch by my mother’s mother It could mean everything, It could mean the most important thing. How Then Is it Nothing?
Nothing Part 3, 4, 5 – November 3, 2019
Your nothing Is different Than my nothing. If nothing Is just nothing Then it’s all the same, But it’s not Just listen. ~~~ It is everything Unwrapped Scattered all over Our minds Can’t make sense of Nothing So It turns us Numb. Not dealt with, Null and Void. ~~~ We fight against nothing. How can … Continue reading Nothing Part 3, 4, 5 – November 3, 2019
Nothing Part 4 & 5 – November 3, 2019
It is everything Unwrapped Scattered all over Our minds Can’t make sense of Nothing So It turns us Numb. Not dealt with, Null and Void. We fight against nothing. How can that be nothing, It has to be something, right?
Nothing Part 5 – November 3, 2019
We fight against nothing. How can that be nothing, It has to be something, right?
Tune In – November 6, 2019
She’s an illusive creature I cannot touch I see her in flashes Smiling at me Or somebody Frozen Etched into My bark forever Cut into the shape of her liking My mind Never made up Because she’s always tapping Begging the question In the background Playing On a fuzzy screen Move the antenna So I … Continue reading Tune In – November 6, 2019
Night Terror – November 5, 2019
A staunch feeling Trickles Into the open air That surrounds me The constant buzz Singing to me Late into the night The Free flow Of thought That passes Through Sits me up straight And rigid Teller of stories Until I break Sinking back in To the loneliness Of the open air That surrounds me.
Time Warp – November 4, 2019
Tired and tingly Zooming Faster and faster Caught in this shitshow Of who knows what Or where it began Flying through blinks Never stopping Or slowing Whizzing But feeling it all Every single drop Or ounce Of love And hate Awkward and chest puffing Not knowing Where it’s going to end Trying to take it … Continue reading Time Warp – November 4, 2019
Seeking and Searching – October 12, 2019
I find myself Chasing This constant high. Take me Where she took me. Let me feel Again And again. Until I can feel no longer, Or it doesn’t matter. I stir this pot we’re in Until it boils over. I see the flaw, And there Is no fixing what is broken. Just living with what … Continue reading Seeking and Searching – October 12, 2019
Seductive Circle – September 30, 2019
The day starts, as it ends Over and over again Perpetual repeat Looped Circling my head In my thoughts Running the track Dizzy, dizzy Thinking the sprockets sprung Ding, I’m done.
