Veins protrude from my temples
Sacred vermilion rivulets
Stream within papery skin
Sinuous lines, fragile mind

Rodin carved your pensive reverie
A reflective moment etched in imagination
Eternally trapped in brooding repose
Questioning the Gods of reason
Your demise is nearing
Soon the figure head . . .

Cursed cursor
Winking, taunting
A strobe light for the mind
Send me into synaptic seizures
Cursed cursor
Pulsing, probing
An ugly ill tempered muse
Waits impatiently to scurry along . . .

My purse hollow
My arms scrawny
My taste buds sour
My mouth deflated
My hunger gnawing
My sight poor with desperation
His wallet thick with judgment
His biceps bulge with burdens
His tongue . . .

Listen to the breath of ageless wisdom,
coming from your elder's creased lips.
Feel the whispered strokes of love
from passion's partner in crime
Taste the nectar of the Gods
on your thirsty . . .

She glows
Anticipating glory
Swaying off kilter
Aching to whet an insatiable appetitite
She grows
Greedily devouring the atmosphere
Frenzied, she dips and revels
Carelessly emits seductive . . .

Dawn bares her rich palette-
Seductive awakening
Tar stained gulls hover-
Scolding thieves
Sea reflects sun's rays-
Blinding illusion
Waves pound the virgin sand-
Tidal release

She wrapped her lips around the can
Inhaling the chemical stench
Winding her internal clock
A porcelain figure stealing the night
A wide eyed jaded innocent
She mechanically traces . . .

Wrap me in the familiar
Speak to me in the past tense
Don’t stoke the dying embers
Let me shiver in the bitter chill
No need to cushion the walls
Lock me in dogmatic confinement . . .

Preceding the onslaught of the storm
we're wrapped in fleece blankets from head to soul
brisk weather can't touch our warmth
the chill smothered by smoldering passion
Shocked by the downpour of . . .

Floating amongst the dead
In a cesspool of mind numbing screams
Holding my breath in these fetid waters
Lest I choke on my last hope
P.S. Thank you for the . . .

Decrepit , aged body painted yellow
Static, colorless TV her only company
Tar stained curtains drawn a putrid brown
A bouquet of reticent buds and festering bugs
Blossom and stir faint memories
Of . . .

Static autumnal winds sway my focus
Electric breezes flow through me,
Shocking my foundation.
I wrestle with the blows of change.
We tested the bounds of reality's force
Stretching our . . .

Sheer costumes, painted faces
Sequined purses, silver vials
Strobe lights; pulsing heartbeats
Sex contrived in a flimsy scene
Whirling prism mirabella
Prancing pixel colors
Arouse . . .

Glaring lights, stipped desert
Towering sirens cluster city streets
Blaring machines resound with promise
Tourists spread in buffets of hope
Sipping freedom on the rocks
Ogling a wheel . . .

Today’s the anniversary
Of my true love’s death
A broken angel, gone from the cold
To an infinite space free of chaos
An ethereal place of contentment
Today’s the anniversary . . .

Books stuffed in cardboard boxes
Packed in mildewed neglect
Coffee stained earmarked pages
Stuck with untapped potential
From a geyser of thought
Words gushed through open pores
To . . .

Swollen glands, ghastly grey
Moaning at a fevered pitch
Forty days and forty nights
Of floating on a sodden raft
Has my ship come in?
Doc A insists I mainlined
Escaping through tracks* . . .

Where could I be?
Where should I be?
The child prodigy,
Anything she wants to be
Those taunting, tempting words,
Alter a nostalgic path
Better left untread
The virginal sand was wasted
Wasted on a life . . .

Dear Diary,
I crash into the iceberg
Oceans spill within my veins
A flood of thoughts pour forth
Salty tears; tides of insight
Snapshots of the ebb and flow
Immortalize these colored moments
Of angst, . . .
