On learning self-love

This is my body, this is my soul — 
I am not the man I wanted to be.

What do you think…

A certain part of ‘me’ lives with you now
In your head. Or heart? Maybe.
It’s missing 
from me.
N I know you mostly don’t…

Metanoia (176)

Love. Angels fall. Locks break.

Blue and blueberries,

A Poet’s Death

A hated ovaries,

A hated testicles,

And she is safe.

He calls her luminescent
Incandescent, extraordinary.
She asks if he has swallowed a thesaurus,
after all, He isn’t usually this verbose.
He laughingly nudges her chin, “fireworks”, he whispers,
“Embodiment of youth”, fingers tracing lightning across her thighs
She shudders.

Locomotive Shuffle

A poem

chuffing and chugging, steel on steel

Winning the Earth

The most authentic of human endeavors is not victory

Leucothoe

“Leucothoe” was

the most beautiful word

I’d ever heard

until my eyes found

you,

and conceived of

The Heart Song

Shaping my life and of it making you a part, 
I thought I'd change everything around and felt very smart. 
But no life doesn't always work…

Power!

Power over people, Power;
Power over ourselves, self power.
Power over our thoughts,
behavior, choices, destinations in life.

Already Dead Haiku

Becoming conscious

I am not conscious bestows

greater clarity.

Nostalgia Ball

This day is cold, digital, black-on-white

Line / Human

A line starts
unknowing, directionless
yet going

Flawed !!!

The comforting smiles. 
The apparent concerns.
The perfection inducing ambiences. 
The awe-inspiring destruction. 
The reeking isolation…
