Charges as a bull with pointy horns . . . more

You please me while you leave
And you’ve whined your last goodbye
Your staring and your wanting

When I wake I think of you, It is not really you,
more the idea of you,
the feel of your idea in my consciouness

but it was always too high,
just outside of her reach.

And in a wild splendor
I saw the mountain at sunset,
Horizons painted led blue,
A huge helm made of sun,

WATCHING RHINE
It just lies here in its big
curve through Basel
on an early autumn
evening, possibly wanting
to have changed its course
a few times over the years

I wake up next to you
your dark eyes full of love and play
Torn between rising
And wanting to stay
As you reach out in play
You added some kisses . . . more

When Steffie died,
She lived on
as tears on Mama's cheeks.
The bright colored dresses
with delicate lace
and the dolls with button eyes
were put away
But, still Mama cried.

Use and abuse me, but oops! What if I retaliate?
Can you draw your weapon before I shoot you down?
Can you stare back if I growl and frown? . . . more

Carefree thoughts dwindle through the vats I call my brain, eyes heavy, . . . more

slowly down they fall.
