Journey to the Center of the Earth
I take my descent into a crater, to find the belly of the earth where legends are nourished and movies are born. Buried in darkness, I cut through gravity yet it continues to pull me in deeper towards the citadel of the Mother womb. You are Earth energy, an inner fortress of birth, the matrix of all...

On a Lake of Weeds
Vines hang like fingers from the sky. Bobby lies flat as a lily pad on a lake of weeds. He sucks on a hickory stick like a cigarette, and scolds the oak trees and the lilac bushes and beheads the dandelions. Sometimes he cries cause no one plays with him. The squirrels stay hidden till he goes home....

Beautiful Bondage
You stroke my body with words, your leather, I am your silent satin, soft under your touch and tongue. Beautiful bondage, physical freedom, even my heart set loose by this perfect security. Poetry, the cord from moon to silver drops of light dappling through cloudless nights. Unlaced, set free by...

New Horizons
From across the miles through prairies, mountains, rivers, lakes and oceans I see your shadow on a hill, overlooking eternity... contemplating what is and what once was, to what will one day be. I watch your mind in action as your words surge across the screen. I get a glimpse inside your head and...

Has something been severed or has mind just lost its peace? Repunzel wonders aimlessly in the dark forest. Will she return to what she knows best, her tower in the sky, to be prisoner to brick and mortar and a broken heart? She falls asleep near the river, where her tears bathe her as she waits...

Before Love
Alone with black walls, dragon claws closing in, strangled by emptiness colored in a thousand eyes looking on, wondering with blank looks, clueless. Entertain them with skin, smile, anything vile, just keep the underbelly covered, safe, protected, tin hat, armor suit, cement shoes. Velvet tongue...

Quiet Prayer
Sweet breath of Heaven, warming me to my core; angel wings folding into hands of prayer; silent sadness dissolving with streams of calming waters. Bright golden beams rising towards an open stairway ascending. Find me in a white robe with kindness and compassion like stones and precious jewels. I'll...

Summer's Bloom
I follow the thread of lovers towards a floating sphere where moon rhythms rock the stars in silent, glowing flame. I take in the Hollyhock of summer's bloom close to my heart. A romantic fever awakens thrice empowered by the words "I love you." Dancing, swirling, moving to Celtic beat in gossamer...

Song
From somewhere within this song, a melody rises with notes unknown to anyone else but you. You hold the harmony and rhythm in the pulsing lyre strings of ballad movement, me the ballerina in dance before you, the swan on the river flowing from your sonnet heart. You, the master poet, teacher of...

Ode to Echo and Narcissus
With such tenderness and desire she longed for you...Echo, breathless and desirable, a nymph of beauty and wisdom... All she ever wanted was to love and be loved... but you would not have her... She escaped into the dark recesses of the woods, but never stopped loving you... You fell in love with...
