    scared, scarred, learning to grow

    I talked to you

    You're going to be okay, hon. Love you, Chirpy.

    but I'm just a silly goose.
    and
    geese don't chirp.

    Let us be refined in fire
    Bound with rings
    of platinum wire

    Ne'er golden sting twixt
    thee and me
    Sealed for all eternity

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami

    a cafe night
    alone
    no phone
    unknown
    gathering thoughts
    in a coffee cup
    til grounded

    The Poet Sauron

    He meddles in the morning
    and he meddles through the night,
    when he sees a poem posted
    he meddles with delight.
    The urge is irresistible,
    he cannot hold it in,
    he has to just rewrite it
    though he knows it is a sin.
    But what is he to do
    when he reads a verse by you,
    aching to be meddled with
    to make it something new:
    “You didn’t understand it,”
    the plaintive cries ignored,
    of course he understood it
    but it needs to be reforged.
    So by the fires of Mordor
    the poet Sauron scribbles,
    his ring of power glowing bright
    beside a plate of nibbles:
    fuelled by I/V coffee
    and lots of cigarettes,
    he’s meddling with purpose now,
    unburdened with regrets.

    red red prun

    pretty lady
    they say pink
    is frilly
    encourages witty
    to turn silly
    for the sake of
    kitty
    but red is
    parody
    to a sky that
    swim to
    eclipse of sun
    to look its fervent
    fun
    painter have it
    run
    to encourage
    and stun
    it is lovely how it won

    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly
