change is coming
wafting on the wind

creeping closer

restlessness rules

recoiling to hide
yet straining forward

fearing change
seeking change

change is coming

Driving Force

Listen to the colors
Coursing thru your veins
Seeping from your skin
like psychedelic rain

Feel the volcanic lava
boiling from within
Multicolored kodachrome
Bursting neath your skin

Dripping from your fingers
Strewn across a page
Lifeblood sacrificed
The inner demon to assuage

Dues are paid and
Life again feels sane
Sanity returns…..
Until the bubbling starts again

Rearview mirror


sea blue
sparkling eyes
cherry stained
cherub lips
gold spun hair
glinting in the sun


bubbling laughter
billowing on air
tiny fingers
tangling tousled hair
bouncing body
barely contained

love
sweetness
grace
charm
all caught in my
rearview mirror
