Intensity consuming the air around you
The electrical energy surging through the walls
The rustic, sweet smell of your breath lingering
Among these sensations the sensitive touch that continues down . . .

You may feel distant
Your thoughts don't seem to matter
Compared to the trash thrown around you
You constantly fight through
Your anxious shakes
To write a straight line
But the jagged . . .

About 5 out of the 7 nights a week, during some part of my dream, I dream of having to use the restroom. I have never actually wet the bed though and even after waking I don't always really have . . .

if I have posted this unfinished poem before...
Once again
You have caused the words
from my lips to cease
Leaving my mind
an echoing chamber
With the only thought
A memory of your kiss . . .

Rustling, rustling leaves
The swishing, swishing, swishing
of squirrels skimpering around trees
The rush of wind that pushes me along
the revving of engines
and squealing of brakes at stop lights . . .

Paint by number town
Cookie cutter houses
With swings and rocking chairs
On their front porches
Crickets sing their evening songs
As children march on home
The sheriff makes his way
Around . . .

Man sits alone
Stares at the wall
He wants to call her
But it won't
Satisfy
His lonely heart
Her words or voice
Can barely touch close enough
To the deepened hole
That encases
Him . . .

Mind control
that directs the pen
along the dotted lines
of a piece of cut
paper
slowly over a folded
napkin
easily across
the side of a table
wherever . . .

Do you think men or women are better poets? Why? I almost think men are...
Bob Dylan made me think it.

My pen stretches across the lines
To extend to you
A favor
A favor to release me from this pain
Miles and miles of
heather covered hills
Roll in front of my eyes
As I write my soul upon these . . .

Use your sharp words to cut off my tongue
For they do nothing but curse
Your name
In vain my attempts are faithless
A heartless worm
That seethes beneath the soil
Nothing more than the . . .

Blissfully have you awaken my soul
with a breeze never felt
topples queens tower
and every knight knelt
like baby's breath
you have softened the blow
gently down I go
to where I don't . . .

There was a time when rhyming within poetry was standard, and then it died. It is still not looked upon, but I think that if you can make it work, and it isn't children's story book, then it works. . . .

if the leaves are falling
and everything is supposed to be dying
then why do I fell alive
the breeze is strong
and the scent of burning logs
brings a past memory
of simplicity and ease

Shadows fall
and bugs crawl
Among your walls
Of sanctity
Your precious deity
Left, torn to pieces
Now alone
With Satan's born
For your company
Light is deceased
Sorrow is the least . . .
