24 Poems ~ 24 Hours
The moon was out
The night, planned and set
On the table
All the trimmings
Paired, in candle light
Alone she waits
And contemplates
The evening to transpire
Shouldn’t love, fuel desire
Promises, unkempt
A fool for words
She understood
She sat him down
Adjusted her crown
Proclaiming him
A cheating liar
The chase is on
Smiles are wide
Laughter echoes
the countryside
Dancing, thrills
Here we are friends
Sharing a spirit
of joy without end
And if you are curious
come along, you’re invited
In only mere moments
you’ll be so delighted
Heaven descends onto earth
what a view to behold,
marvelous are the ways of mother nature.
So isolated from up above
a taste of heaven and
earth in the same bite
take a big bite,
savor the view
Standing atop
breathe in the air
let it fill your lungs
with the essence
of where you are standing,
Open your arms wide enough
to embrace the view
to give thanks.
Revere the dancing clouds
surrounding you
floating weightlessly.
As dark clouds loom over
your dreams suspended
in mid air and gravity can’t
do shit ’bout it…

Summer storm, rain sleeting down
thundering roars, oh thunderstorm,
have me get soaked, wipe all my thoughts
Punching the sad, delusion and mad
walk in the rain, can’t shake of the sad.
Depression that hangs with the bad.
Spotted silver snow leopard sky
Stretching far and fractured
Gathering distant stars
Kissing the wide-eyed moon
Whispering stolen secrets from the future sun
Give it to me
let me feel your awesomeness,
fill me with all its splendor, its wholeness
Give it to me
and allow me to envelop him with all my womanhood
enter unhesitantly, deeper, to the dark recesses of hidden pleasure
Give it to me
thrust into me, vigorously, unrelenting
thrust into me, to the titillating culmination
thrust into me, to the rhythm of combined heartbeats,
labor breaths, pulsating
thrust into me, to the ultimate sighs, moans,
tight embraces, uncontrollable, penetrating kisses
Give it to me
the juices that make it alive
the juices that pour out lovingly, sensuously, languorously,
and the clashes, and subsequent merging of bodies,
intertwine, as one heart, one body, one soul…
Yes, oh yes, give it to me…NOW!
I’m dreaming of you
Your smile, laugh, everything
Do you dream of me?
Table for two
how different
my voice sounded
the first time
I ordered a table
for two
not long
before we were asking
for a high chair
onto table for four
and child menus
how my voice
didn’t make a sound
the first time
our son offered
to foot the bill
now we are back
to a table for two
our voices
excited at the sound
of the phone ringing
and now
alone at the table
the quiet
broken by the scrape
of spoon on plate
At THE Circus
The orange man
Storms right out
He rants and raves
Throws his weight about
The rest of the world
Watches the show
Duh Duh Duh
duh~duh~duh
Duh Duh Duh DUH
duh duh Duh~duh~dudda
Dope!
