A boomerang of lust and gold, I threw with good intent to love, Returns to me as I grow old. My flaws that you will fondly scold

The House That Remembered Everything It stood beyond the reach of roads, Where no one passed without regret, A house that watched with blinded eyes,
Smelling good you know attracts Confidence goes up a notch…. Can’t be false I say straight facts Time did tell for real you watch….

70s Were the Best The needle drops with a heavy click, Vinyl spins a velvet groove, Lava lamps glow orange and thick, While bell-bottoms start to move.
The Parish Where No Morning Comes The bell had long since lost its tongue, Yet still the tower leaned to speak, A hollow throat of broken stone,
The One Perfect Kiss It was not loud, nor wild with careless hunger, It came like a secret, slow and certain, Your breath close enough to change the air I lived in,
Summer fades like a lover’s dream Summer fades like a lover’s dream, Not all at once, but slow and low, A quiet loss beneath the gleam,
You see me here, my dear friend, day by day, slipping away. I can’t walk without help. I can’t breathe without a tank.

Black Water Prayer Knees press into ground that cannot be seen, weight carried without knowing where it rests, eyes lifted toward a sky that holds its silence,
Too Much Sadness Makes the Heart Bitter There comes a point where sadness changes shape, Where it is no longer soft, or tearful, or kind,
When Best Friends Die There is a silence that comes without warning, Not the gentle kind that soothes the mind, But the kind that steals the sound from breathing,
