Reflection

always startled by
my reflection, not quite sure
what I expect there

that exotic brown
eyed woman looking back
at me feels foreign

I cannot say what’s
missing, golden eyes, pointed
ears and fur seem right

Stasis

dawn, and the sun will
n’ere rise, ever just begins
with no end in sight

I’ve keys to all the
beginnings, but where are all
the happy endings

Wilderness

where night finds me, I
lay me down neath a star strewn
canopy of stars

and waken dew damp
embraced by verdant nature
tracing sun’s warm kiss

She Writes

pen in hand she writes
scenes that never were, true once
put upon the page

she writes for her life
words marching cadence across
every pale blue line

Bow (haiku)

obelus icon
obelisk, pylon reached, breached
faceless god gone, fled.

Wine

maenadic maven
guaffing vines blood – divine rite
chasing the night’s flight.

Dreams Held Close (haiku)

dreams told come not true

night’s velvet cloak holds gems, so

spew nightmares instead.

Faery Dust

those clouds that held us
aloft gave way to the ground
wings gone, we walk on.

Suspended

moon kissed sea’s ebb, flow
I trod the strand, that just firm
sand not now nor then

Rain

rain drenched sopping ground
long sated – swiftly runs your
largess to the sea.
