Play
Closets bare
the summer
rolls near
on countless waves
of ocean breaks
and melodies set
with glass hands

Winter
When speed
runs in
catch it fast
hold the pressure
down
close to
the lungs
and wait
to dive.

Delicate
easily
spoiled
the fine china
upon the
careful shelf

bottle
do we
remember bitter?
The images
that it creates
solid and fresh
as if
rolled in the dusty
memories
of small things

Kind
Be sweet
No more pressure
allow for pauses
and the collected thoughts
to ramble
and roll
be sweet.

Molly
curly
the red runs
brave and small
through the
open field

Suicidal
I never
thanked you
for sitting
with me
as the fire
rose
before I
discovered
that I
was fire proof.

Plain

Precious 8
Fall
from the fact
treat yourself
kindly
and settle in
with a warm blanket
a good book
and the possibility
of sleep
Tea at a stand
still
waiting for
the next dreams
to roll their way
to you.

Squander
never fall
keep strong
even after
all of the
money
is gone
and those
that said
they would
stay forever
departed
after the
final call

The first jar
is pennies.
don't believe them
they lie all of the time
Quarters
are at least
a little bit better
they give you
some kind if warning
(to be continued)...

Dwell
Far free
the covers clutch
that grace
which walks
seldom through
those pious
lands

DNA
We sit
in a burden
of copies
before
wondering why
seldom how
we exist
but for a mire
string of cells

Legend
Secretly
a mystery
unfolds
between the
tales told
and the truth

lock
pausing
he secured
the door
there was
no time
to stop
for what
remained.
