Suffering

Mellifluous

1 min read

Decay beneath the soil

roots rotten with regret

locked up in love lost

and empty words unsaid


The preacher speaks of suffering

day after day after day

gardener calls it smothering

I water them again


Coffee grounds or nitrogen

blood meal or advice

blossom peachy last remains

and read our final rights...

Blue Black Night Of Winter

Mellifluous

1 min read

Navy blue of night,

apprehensive steps

past pages torn perpendicular.


It’s abstract intentionality,

icicles in December woods,

shadows azure with cold,

silver snow cloaked

under weight of yesteryear’s womb.


The ancestors still pushing

to come through. So many stories

still wait to be true. Depth of sadness

too heavy to tell

in real time.


_With nothing to grasp, _

_no one will connect…_


but ...
