My stories

Desire When I was born I was so many baby boys. A foreign Prince The one no one loved A single man’s salvation On my own Desire was sunlight & laughter But storm clouds gather
Cherry

Cicada song Do not test yourself here Don’t break yourself against this shore. I have my feet firmly planted, My hands fingering the key – I have journeyed through the first flame

Bull Horned Bear of Reason

Bull Horned Bear of Reason I want answers, solutions to the old problems of thighs & ideas, this sack of issues I carry in a coat neither too big nor too warm.

Bloody Diplomacy You were whispering lines of fantasy about gifts & fate. I’d heard it before, Your praise like a smack I’ve learned to tolerate. I dream of bloody diplomacy
