clouds soft cloak nature
reign of fury dissipation
as drenched by isolation
furies last tremor she feels
he walks earthen tracks away
no more fury to caress
big bang
the sun throws shadows
with a sorrows art,
in native shade
away from that once
crawling dawn,
night some fragmented
feeling left on the floor
darkened more,
a cold patch
impossible with those
bare feet to tread upon,
sun would not fall
as fast,
in it’s streams she bathed
flaxen haired
so his red blood welled,
left behind
shadow grasped at him,
she turned
a smile
that chimed a mischievous
knell,
darkening face and chest
her peaceful calling
to which he moved
at her side,
kisses lifted lyric melodies
as hand in hand
would stay
till the glows last gleam
and the world teems
with wonder once again

Sixty Miles
drive over rutted dirt
tracks of others,
at sloped angle
park up
pull coat closed
more snow coming
binoculars out the
trunk
in the distance others
gathering their breath,
a haze
can they see it or have
i missed it
sixty miles for what
a bird the wife knows
what it is
she has gone on
anticipating a rare
event
i feign wiping windshield
shes with them
one guy in fatigues
placed a gloved palm
on her back
so intimate
sixty miles to find out
Conversion To Irony
i became the cigarette
just finished
a stub fallen
ash beneath your feet
i can curl my fingers
about yours
wishing to hold on,
yet i cannot
your scalpel tongue
has dissected each
to phalanges bone,
i am lead to a time
when i knew where
my footsteps went,
but with bourbon comfort
exact latitudes can be awry,
loosening grip
wishing yet again to feel
the cushioned curve of lips
on mine,
but that was gifted away,
i am on the obverse of the coin
the side that falls first
not to see the sun rising,
we will not be the lovers
crying to get older,
parted as strays banished
to territories fixed by hearts
and actions of the mind
