For once, I wish.
My life was clear.
My heart is frozen and my mind is gone.
The beat fighting to come out.
My mind is wanting to explain.
life is at a stand still.
With no where to go.
Open a door . . .

I am reposting this from last year for a good reason that is not related to gather.
You slither slowly
through the garden grass
trying not to make a sound.
Slowly spinning tales made . . .

Four thousand died
more than a hundred years ago.
Forced to leave their homes
and their land.

Rich soil, fertile land
It was home to the . . .

If I scream,......
will it calm me.
If I cry,.....
will it help me.
If I close up,.....

would I be missed.
If i need you,.....
would you be . . .

Now I lay down to sleep
But, I can't...so
With me, a book I read
I try to take away the pain
to forget about you
and when you ripped my life away
I am having trouble breathing . . .

You said you weren't my father
my mom lied on her back
you said you weren't my father
and was never coming back
I was happy
maybe mom had
at least ONE good time
If what you said . . .

She sits and waits
dreaming of
a far off place
a place where she can escape
she sits and waits
never giving up
hoping her dreams
will be answered one day
she sits and waits

Yesterday I thought of you
Yesterday is when I knew
Yesterday it all was clear
how much I hate you dear
Yesterday you went on and on
you told me you loved me
but I still knew
how much I . . .

Lovely maiden
Long red hair cascades down bare shoulders and
blows in the salty sea breeze.
She sings a song never before
heard by human ears.
Enchanting and hypnotic
The maiden . . .

My eyes are forever undisturbed
Objects self-form on the ceiling where I stare
The buzzing of a fly drowns out my heart beat
My eyes are burning, so I blink, but only once
The fly is replaced by the . . .

For those wondering where I've been and why I'm not posting new poems, I have been taking a break. Remember that stress and depression thing I have talked about before? Well, that's why, but . . .

Suicide is the occupational hazard of female poets, like falls from buildings for window washers. The western suburbs of Boston form a sort of Bermuda Triangle of this phenomenon: Sylvia Plath, . . .

She wondered
If other mothers
Felt the same
When their baby died:
Dull, dark and empty,
As if part of them
Had been torn away,
Buried in another place,
Far off in some foreign ground; . . .

I wrote this originally in 2007. Also, I painted the moon painting in 2008. I thought it would be fun to add some of my different photos in between each stanza that go with it.

Clearing yet another snowfall
With a faint hint of spring in the air
Dreaming of grilling and baseball
Tossing another shovel-full onto the mounting pile

heads up mouths open . . .

She was big and came out backwards.
She was the middle child.
Between a handsome dark hair, pretty blue eye boy and a small delicate, blond hair girl.
This child was big and bulky.
Had a big forehead, . . .
