All the worlds sorrow
Today is kept
For one family
To bear…not to share
In the shaded bitterness
Of my suger-free
mourning Coffee
I numbly sip, sniff and stir

A wood like all
and I am imprisoned
between the long legs
and the fallen stems
which breaks under my feet

In a leather bound elegance
proudly they declare
“We will make you feel at home” …
And I say …
It ain’t the tiniest bit like home..
Not with these incredible pillows
Or these milky creamy soaps
Frantically leathery slippery
Like all dashing hopes ..
And the diminutively bottled
fragrant shampoos, creams, gels …
Blah.. blah.. blah…..
With the narrow necks..

“Take no risk son”
Mother said
“I fear for you
from a deceitful fate”
The heat under my feet
The heaviness of the stillness
Itching on my sole
.. go..don’t wait ..

I am sore from stretching
to be as tall
Tired of listening to your music
and dreaming ….

Ants I know are tiny and creepy
Yesterday,they invaded my life
Crawling next, over and under me
And this is a true horror story
I woke up on what felt
Iike noise .. but it was not..
I couldnt see until next to it I knelt
And here it was my poor half nut …

Two more teeth,
in my shaken hand
smeared with his blood and my tears
with a weary mind , I guess
how many he still wears ?

Its not about the noise that follows
from me or the door
When you slam shut the end
on my fingers …
Its all about fending the cocoon

There is something in flying alone…
Not a driver .. nor a road…
just… the “go”….
It’s not that I do it often…
It’s not that I love it..
To be ..I mean ..on my own…
But there is magic in piano tunes..
There is zest in flying alone…
To my comfort zone…

Surrendering my body and day
to the longing of an imperceivable lover
Passionately devouring me
When I am hopelessly feeling low ..

Battling
an inevitable fall
With a tenuous grip
Hanging to a
vanishing hope

Of all the raindrops
All the day lights
All the birthday gifts
and all the colorful boxes
Of All the smiles and
the love poems
Of all the hearty songs
and all the funny quotes
