I once looked at the moon and thought it was made of cheese.
My friends laughed at me. I never mentioned it again
I wanted to close my eyes and see only darkness there. rather than the swirling . . . more

Auschwitz
Ghostly tears of lost spirits,
The wounding of whip,
Their memories remain,
Upon the clench of my fist,
As I see the photographs,
Of dead body masses,
Old tattered clothes,
Gold teeth and glasses, . . . more

The Little Face of Truth
I see a smile gracing the face of truth,
As my nephew runs free,
In a way I once ran,
And I reach out to the days long gone,
Just holding his hand,
Makes me more of a man,

In the sixties she drank southern comfort on the rocks
just like Janis
In the seventies she slept in a car by the orange grove
for her freedom
The eighties found her love in her daughters . . . more

She nonchalantly walks through the door.
To her it was just another store.
She looks the part—together, well dressed.
Not at all like a disheveled mess.
She's no different than the other . . . more

The magical moon
rises above barren trees,
giving us new dreams.
The sun's out brightly
gleaming off frozen landscapes,
shows us ghosts of warmth.
Depression in grey
clouds that seem to last so . . . more

With our feet we walk around
And see so many things,
It all depends what shape we're in,
Or if our feet have wings.
If I just had a speed bike
I could peddle everywhere
I could even . . . more

Large ebony spots hanging heavy in the sky
like teardrops filling with
saline solution
just before plunging to the ground.
But these ink blots of jet will stay
for a while
until

The Forgotten Children
Children bereft of love,
Forlornness haunts there eyes,
A stare beyond steel bars,
All they have known within there lives,
A rope restrains their hands,
The same questions . . . more

It seems every time I say I love you it turns out bad. Either the person moves away or I move away.

Vivid Waters
Vivid dreams carried upon the water,
Drift by as the river gently flows,
Thoughts of her infused in morning sunlight,
Hypnotize upon a dancing golden glow,
Her face upon the surface softly . . . more

flowers that
we both picked;
sent to me
warped and stained,
stay unwrapped,
precisely like letters-
as from me to you

The sky made me feel small
that day we walked through history
and I felt disconnected from myself.
The trees were shedding bark
because all the wind had gone
and the leaves tumbled away
yet they still . . . more
