I keep trying to remember
in the face of impending doom
that it's spring and greening
as if that is enough
to ward off the world's gloom.

This morning moon
as pale as blue milk
creamless and weak
overcome with worry
neither of us can sleep.

so artemis flies
while conspirators
still caught within their nets
lie searching for dark wires
between the stars

__isolation ward__
with artemis, around the moon
they cannot feel the pain
but still can see the rain
where mother's clouds fight back
against the virus

man unkind
dressed or redressed
figmented pink or blue
must still with lesser beings breed
deny the bleeding truth

Bolts of thunder
birch branches crucified
bone-thin arms
stretched across
an electric blue sky.

I think warm thoughts
padded in cotton wool
nothing sharp can penetrate
layer upon layer
such softness, felt.

Years later, and only then
does the realization hit
that he never cared
and I have been mooning
for something that never was.

No more than a dot
intense blue barely there
fleet against the grass
then gray bark of tree
radiant hue of sky, bird.

she pressed her hands on the window ~

Such comfort
in this meager existence
all needs met
still longings endure
and for that I am sorry.

How many times have I
scribbled night into being
when I write
of pale stars speeding
alone in the dark.

The cat and I

Often I go nowhere
except to travel
a thousand miles
into my imagination
I find beauty there.

lust to dust
and love to ashes
nothing left
but laughter's echoes
turned at last to salt

It's just the tiniest bit
but my eyes are drawn
to the swaying branches
edged in spring green
it's about to begin.

Today smiled at me
a little bit of sun
some wispy clouds
and the grass
turning greener.

Poets exaggerate moments
hearts broken, we've known it
ours or someone elses
it hardly matters
we steep it in grandeur.

Today
I had to scream
at the top of my lungs
just so I could hear myself in
the noise.

The sky grays
then blackens with menace
I should quaver in fear
instead I draw
and exhilarated breath.

Hard to believe
the invisible ugly crust
half-covering this beautiful
blue-green world formed
fron hate and hazy dust.

I sweep it up

The wind picked up
gusting really
but it blew away the clouds
and suddenly the sun
flew in.

that strike on schools
unmatched
outside of zion
while our lions lie
down on broadway

Only a full day of magic
can aid my escape
fire breathing dragons
and crystal fitted shoes
still, reality crushes in.
