Uncompromising
(Fearless and Ferocious)
stanzas pierce
static thinking
brutality of honesty
a poetic knife
carves with the truth
cuts through lip service
opens chronic wounds
that they may bask
bathe freely amid sunlight
beams that shine
radiate with resplendent lines
born in darkness and despair
from a deep need to share
empower with poetry
an authentic voice
fearless and . . .
ferocious
uncompromising
unwilling to remain
quieted in the shadows
demanding to be heard

Amid the Madness
can we, can we
get back to happy
our natural status
before life writes
lines that steal smiles
upset what stirs inside;
passionate fire
exuberance of desire
knowing poetry and
streaming real-time dreams
stirs innate creativity
expressiveness of artistry
our spiritual sanctuary
salvation amid the madness
peacefunessl and bliss
this, yes more
of this . . . .
a reconnectedness
to inner happiness

Spiritual Incantations
my midnight invitations
orchestration of constellations
has everything, everything to do
to do with you, and you, and you
my first star come evening twilight
rising in an entrancing dance
wish, my wish, my only wish
dreamy starkissed moonbeams
alchemy of metaphysical streams
spiritual incantations
eternity's transformations

Imminently Intimately
closer than close
nonexistent distance
zero separation between
when two become one
sun on moon on sun
circling, orbiting
in crystalline serpentines
figure eights pirouette
love spins love wins love spins
feelings abound, surround
profound emotions astound
write poetry betwixt souls
express passion wholly
imminently intimately
speak without speaking
spark fiery inspiration

All the Other Flowers
welcome positive energy
say yes, to awesome vibes
watch for authentic smiles
every once in a while . . . .
open yourself to the universe
feel the vibrations flowing
know your gold
ought to be glowing
so bold the seeds of love
you're sowing
sunflowers worth showing
come into the garden
join all the other flowers
blooming where
you've been planted
and roots run deep

Born
feel emotions flow
remembered embers
fiery golden afterglow
love rises, love surprises
obliterates disguises
even for the one who
denies it
love is intimacy is private
spiritually surreal
uplifting as spring is eternal
heavenly fantastical
mysterious and magical
resplendent as a river
carves a mighty path
onto the sea
your heartbeat is part of me
internal and completely
we are what
we're born to be

Vindication
if you expect me
to be done
well, this is
intended for you
a sucker punch
to the mother-fucking gut
like a middle finger
given in the middle of dinner
to a loser
from a winner
hey, fuck you
for the inspiration
I wouldn't have
done this without
you, thank you
for the implication
is my vindication
ultimate satisfaction

An Albatross
it's a, a sordid story
ever more to it,
ever forever, more
perverse words traverse
mark and scar,
an open but broken heart
takes and takes
before it ultimately breaks
more and more
falls to the floor
shatters into tatters
glass shards of the front door
to the house and all that matters
former glory of our story
enough love for both of us
who cared and shared
scared or not
we dazzled with
gave it our best shot
gave it all we've got
all green lights, no hard stop
love on top of love on top
famously dangerous,
an albatross,
paying a price,
despite the cost

In a Healthy Garden
love needs no covers
no disguises, no surprises
love thrives, survives
hurricanes and hard times
despite rough weather daze
love remains, continues to amaze
delights and demands
commands our attention
clarifies any apprehension
love supports, purports
declares without fear
open as oceans
love never ebbs, love flows
year after year after year
despite natural highs and lows
love glows, it grows
in a healthy garden

Birthday Memories
going to take you
on a train to new york city
today's your birthday
and I want to make you
feel spectacular and pretty
we can walk the city's streets
stroll along the high-line
circle manhattan island
sailing upon the circle line
hop onto a helicopter ride
see skyscrapers passing by
or simply sip on zippy drinks
way up in the sky on a rooftop
witness a city that never stops
fly it until our energy drops
and your special day is done
after ridiculous sums of fun
this gift I wish to give you;
heartwarming memories
brighter than the sun

Reason Enough
grab a pencil
find yourself drawing
a smiley face
create a happy space
a simple circle
with a nose and two eyes
zero rules
no compromise
without need to mind time
and you might just find
that's reason enough
to smile
to hang around
here awhile

Able to Say
we both cry
because these stories
are our shared stories
twin, fast-food platters
of the same crap
bullshit and more shit
how much can people handle
we wonder, we ask
sadness hidden
behind sublime smiles
tears in the eyes
leave a crystalline sheen
because inside
we're broken, we are,
we are choking
on strife, on life
both get back up
but we've had enough
probably both too tough
yet we are surviving
working our way,
and one day, we'll say
we will be able to say,
honestly, we're thriving

Deception
reflections mirror
twenty / twenty
perfection of introspection
rear / view / clarity
can see where once
I was blinded by nighttime
inimitable darkness
unable to shine in the light
my inability / to shine
became clearer . . .
one truthful look in the mirror
resplendence of a spirit sublime
on this / many / might opine
is it the heart . . .
that reveals / without disguise
or is whatever may dismay . . .
deception of the eyes
mirrored misconceptions
misinterpreted reflections
foolishness and lies
we believe / we see

We Raise our Glasses
strolling beneath
marvelous moonbeams
wishing upon sparkling stars
streaming in my dreams
glittering bubbles rising
golden, champagne skies
this effervescent world is ours
spinning and spiraling
we raise our glasses
on high
salutations shared
infinite celebrations
eye to eye to eye
vivid as imaginations
far and wise
a toast - to precious time

Tango (Are We an Us)
wind me up
left right, left slide
right pivot then rotate
you lead, I follow
smoothly flowing
musically moving
letting go as to legato
tangled within a tango
staccato soul to soul
are we an us . . . (dancing)
I don't know
the ending to our story
the finale of the show

Rhythm of Life
inside a heartbeat
pulse of universal light
dynamic energy thriving
fiery is a desirous sky
climbing high climbing
spirits flying spirits
rising high rising
transference of alchemy
emotional interconnectivity
intimacy of bodily poetry
extraterrestrial chemistry
attraction's invincibility
love's eternal honesty
beats to the rhythm of life
the resounding pounding
of heartbeats
