from a quaky perch

nestled in a shaky tree–

caught on a high!

picking up bits

and pieces of bliss–

Lone Star

caught between

light and dark

a lone star

Tipsy

an urn full of wine

overturns–

a tipsy morning

Touch Me Not

shade or shine

let me be with my lot

touch me not

a doorway guards

a distant past

A Sip of Dawn

tipped and dropped

into the railing pot

a sip of aurora

The Finale

The heart stops midbeat
The rhythm pulsates, lingers
The music plays on.

Deeps

Still runs deep.

Still waters
Turbulent fathoms
Deeps beckon.

Fences

While in the nightly hours...

Sparkles
of the vinous,
musky moonlight
spill o’er
the urns
of the skies,
speckle
the nooks
and crannies
of the night,
cling
to the fences
of my senses,
and my sleepy eyes.

Survivor

And to no applause.

The lone survivor.

Though lone, survivor.

Though survivor, lone.

If You Must

Caught on the run.

Call it not dusk

nor call it dawn,

call it if you must

a twilight daylong

slipped and fallen

off the horizon.
