The Name

sabotage barefoot in the muddled grass

the list thanks the masters of the law

which sword denies this name

stretching thru the spirit of the trees

counting drops of rain passing the spectrum

blanched diamonds drifting 

where is the name I am

this list is consumed droplets of names

The Lioness

calmly starved the lioness comforts lost calves scenery neglected gnats covering longing eyes confusion of the misfits of this reality nudging them along with no safety or fight the calves become the ghost prodding introducing the lioness to her cub

Divination

divination sparkles with a side of boredom

caught up in a wild horse storm bareback 

the wild hogs have been showered

meeting up with the old coyote 

living on rainbows and white kernals

poking rhythms in the little black pot

The Fox

So the fox hid the secret 

took the fox oath

never to tell a soul 

of this sacred duty given

leaving clues 

clearing the path

they tried to coax 

begging for just a clue

the fox tried to gesture 

look closer come inside

they raised their hands

you sly fox we give up

while the secret slept cozy 

warm and safe in the fox hole

The Frogs

decay in the space between air and earth
the chimes blowing lit by the lightning sky
come in and have some tea
we are all alone inside
thats the tumble weed scratching
what can you tell me about the frogs
come here isn't this special
go ahead look under the blanket
at night they come out
the whole house resonates

Wheezing

fragile laughter wheezing 

smiling red painful bleeding

chance of death knocking

all paid to look away 

the time for them to soon

laughter healing wounds

The Queen of Hearts

The Queen of Hearts spoke softly rolling her cannolis
the sous chef to Minnie Mouse and her holy pearls
Mickey was kind of a player Mouse well connected
when she returned to her kingdom in Wonderland she was furious
the king of hearts tried to please her but always fell off his pedestal
the White Rabbit announces all hail the Queen
but Alice failed talking back and questioning this tyranny
so the cards they played and fell in line
the Queen of hearts was beloved and they all weeped at her passing
Minnie's Cannolis just don't taste the same

The Bunny Hop

lemon meringue pie dripping from a cigarette

dancing the side to side bunny sway

hop up to the kitchen hop back to the table

the Queen of hearts bellows 

what are you a stunad it's right in front of you

under that quirky laugh hides a quale

Sleepless In Seattle

the line cracked you found me sliding on a pole

boots so high kicking the empty black spaces

small intimate room no where else to go

sweet innocent kisses no lines, curfew to sweet to leave 

as I smile taking off the boots letting my hair down

Towelettes

grasping folds with soft paper cuts

masking old wounds with moist towelettes

mashing silicone into empty pockets

listen up to the bum on duty 

wink and smile for candy

tomorrows pigtails are to tight
