The Welcome Oomph

Step naturally now
listen to your footfall
there among broken steps
and frail dis-hope
how lightly
you traipse
the rise
you
get
above it.

Incompatibility

Such sorrow to discover
she really believed
in emojis.

Fair Dreamin’

Bi-planes above us under
low-blue ceiling, I wonder
if they’re from our time.

I’m not saying step away,
I’m saying step back a bit
and give us both room to breathe.

Long Weekend

Make it so hot
that it’s not
just ahh
but Oh!

L-ego!

Endless possibility filled the moment
(which happened to be morning) sun
baked me dry and timeless so I became
one with the sky so far
above the ground I hover, delight
in my self now not at all
sad to lose it.

Fine Line

I’m not certain
that my unhappiness
over your sadness
and my desire for you
to be nothing but happy
is really the same
as loving you

The Retort

I only live to love you,
certainly not to be served
and so it hurts to go on like this.

I only live to love you
and to heal.

Starkly

Not a parent nor a prince,
neither president or king,
ones lover not-self
but God.

Rite Of Way

The stones I leave at the gate
can be used to trace new paths
or bar access to the existing.
Place them accordingly – you decide.
