Madonna and Baby Jesus
Madonna and Baby Jesus...the supreme subject... Some call her Mary, others call Madonna, or the mother of Jesus, she was frail, gentle and absolute, little Jesus was her first work of art, the toddler probably wondered why some crawled and became twisted like broken branches when in his presence, he...

Pimping out our love in poetry...
Some love affairs go on too long in our heads, The truth is we have become our own sad poems, Our mouths opening and closing, weeping and wailing, Loud fingers, disconnected, while our strangeness and clumsiness yearns for the fire of yesterday’s love, half falling over ourselves in the dark,...

Neither our vices nor our virtues further the poem. "They came up and died just like they do every year on the rocks." The poem feeds upon thought, feeling, impulse, to breed...itself, a spiritiual urgency at the dark ladders leaping. This beauty is an inner persistence toward the source striving...

I'm over the hill, on the way down...I like birthdays, don't like aging...
Birthdays Not surprisingly birthdays come on like villians knocking at our doors, tap, tap, tap, shifty-eyed fast speaking salesmen peddling love, wisdom, youth and popularity pushing substitutes in bottles, tiny millimeters of hope Shifter stones, natal lovers, dark aliens, eavesdropping our days...

Who should live and who should die?
I think a lot about our men arguing over who should die and who should live, I think about how they worry about the sky dropping fire and brimstone on them and all they love...

A puzzling picture of Jesus...
Christ Mocked by Soldiers (1932) Rouault Jesus is sitting not standing with nothing around him to gather our senses on, we can only consider closely what he will orwon't do next, as he went about his business of the universe relentlessly withholding his radiance and splendor, as the winds spindled...

I am woman...An instrument of Love...
