Complications of Love
Leave me to my own advances, The disenchantment of failed romances. I felt her thoughts, I felt the passion. But friends and lovers are out of fashion. Feelings are a thing for masking. You hold those questions you feel like asking. You wish there was an easier way, To say the things you want to…

Daughter Of The Fallen
Fathers drinking in the Kitchen, And mothers crying in the living room. I am constantly praying, Hoping death comes and takes them soon. Life holds nothing new for them, They fight the same bout everyday. Mother acts oblivious. And father drinks the pain away. I find myself feeling betrayed. Is this the way a child’s…

In the Garden of Dreams
I do not know how to argue in this language with traction that grasps at straws as the clouds race by. The summer peppers are late for lack of heat. The closing shadows slow all growth. We plant a thought to bring forth a story nurtured by the spring of ongoing lust. How to take…

He Went To Jared
I was in a hurry the moment I met her in more ways then one. I even filled my car up with a full tank of kerosene at the gas station by mistake rushing to spend another day with who I thought was to be the love of my life. Violet Starr was the most…
