Full Moon nights bring calm
Cool thoughts about the future,
Selene carries on.

The Star that fell down
Upon this hearts softer ground
Only the Moon knows.

Poets, they may come and go

While others are here to stay

And though some you’ll never know

The ones you meet…change your fate

Such were my travels when I was Deep Underground

The harder side of poetry was never the same

When I met a man from Portugal, Mr. Bond

With poetic skill and craft…

There is a nostalgia in her eyes

Like the memory of a million heartbeats echoing through time

A story untold through a near glassy glacial glance

Cold and warm all at once

Reaching out in the night

In the vast expanse there is a sigh

It’s as if there is a secret from the universe waiting to escape

You can almost imagine it as it…

sending messages to other trees through there roots

talking quietly, lest the mortals listening will know their story

my soul whispers my dreams to their leaves

ever stoic, they never tell anyone

one might think they are lone soldiers

but this isn’t true; they are connected through their umbilicus to the Earth

they have…

I’ve always said she’s been a voice of reason

When times got so befuddled and rough

She’s been an artistic inspiration

A lyrical sister who knows her stuff

She’s got a passion for…ars poetica

She has been supportive and perceptive

Even when others have tried her patience

She’s been up-front, honest and…

Across Multiverses

Somewhere out in the world right now

A woman is opening the door

Getting bad news as she holds her children

While somewhere in a different universe

She is welcoming her husband home

And maybe somewhere in the multiverse

He is still searching for her…

Somewhere in the world right now

A child is…

Seven. I cant remember when the last time I had sex.

Six. How in the world will we thrive?

Five. Survive the foul odor?

Four. The smell hung in the air unrelenting-ly.

Three. I can see from here the road youll travel.

Two. The last gravel drive.

One… then there was none

Blueberry crush dripping purple juice across the white linen cloth.

Chocolate covered cherries with stems scattered across the lace layered fabric.

Peach gush fountain with splattered droplets sticky sweet.

Orange tango dancing sour circles around the tongue.

Rewriting Memory

if time listened to me

I’d ask it to give me more time

so that all the happy memories feel strong longer

and last longer

to the point my soul would feel sublime

if time heard my reasons

then all the melancholic days would be a blast

everything sad would then be on the upside

with great…

This isn’t a competition.

There is room for more than one.

Actually, there’s room for everyone.

You are creating the lack

in your imagination.

Remember the loaves and fishes?

If we share,

there is always enough.

Rewriting Memory

There comes a time when we cross a certain threshold

Like reaching higher ground and seeing the road behind

It’s as if the map we held had several detours

Some were needless while trying to find peace of mind

And maybe those diversions were necessary

Sometimes guidance and advice will fall on deaf ears

But we…

Spend time with nothing.

Spend time doing nothing.

Our fear of laziness

prevents us from accomplishing

something out of nothing.

There is more potential in doing nothing

than in doing something.

Something comes from nothing.

Without nothing,

there would be nothing.

Because of nothing—

we have something.

We shouldn’t be so quick to…

Rewriting Memory

I’ve said it many times, over, and over again

Guilt is a needless load to carry forever

The solution comes in asking for forgiveness

Or you else can’t go on happily with new endeavors

And though it’s all in the past you never forget

Understanding that there are life lesson which never end…

Rewriting Memory

Blink…I blinked slowly and the years went by

faster than anything I could have imagined

Reminiscing about those old wistful days

envisioning the now and how it happened

In dash a lot of memories come back

like a bright flash of lightning lighting the road

Every synapse and neuron…

Look towards the sky.

The heavens declare the wonders of the universe.

If you gaze long enough,

you will find yourself in the stars.

If you listen long enough,

you will understand the ways of the moon.

If you reflect long enough,

you will see your light in the radiance of the sun.

From a certain perspective,

this world can make you…

Limited.

Hard.

Travel the path.

Walked.

Step.

Education sets stones.

Unmoved.

Read.

Are you

a friend

or foe?

I still don’t know.

°

Should I trust you

or not?

What if

you’re all I’ve got?

°

I’m not sure

what to think anymore.

Should I still

be keeping score?

°

If I learn

to release?

Will I find

some peace?

°

If I let go?

Will it help me

to grow?

Rewriting Memory

The mutual understanding between kindred spirits

It’s like a language spoken at a higher plane

Even in silence there’s respect and admiration

When in retrospect we know we all felt the same

Amidst reverence and passionate veneration

There’s also a devotion that consumes the soul

As if…
