Tango with paint

day paints over night with the most colorful swirls

sherbet-on-the-go

don't trifle with this thought

to do so can affect your dreams

Something inexplicable

about red & purple
grapes & apples
day turns into evening
your hand holds
nothing
a pen
can't bear

Something hopeful is rising up


angle the mirror
no, a little more to the left
more to the left
yes, just there
the skies are turning
blue

Spun


centrifugal 
force
& the will
to fly
is this 
akin
to the desire
words have
for the page
the desire 
carrots
feel 
to be 
slimmed
to slivers 
or simply
the desire
for something
bracingly 
cool 

Faces of the season


Keep the window ajar

Invite the ripe inside 

Invite words to ripple & flow

I love jazz in the afternoon


late afternoon with coffee. Perhaps, a Walker shortbread. The air inhabited by color. Green & blue. Always red. Some hues linger. When the line works, the heart holds on. A word or two, remembered.
