My stories

The world is a feather within your palm

The world is a feather within your palm The quill of invention the quote of alarm! A wild doe-eyed beauty, you hide your spell. Till written out of hand drawn from the well!

Divisions of vanity

The sun and moon were lovers once Until dancing on the sea They saw in one another A singularity, a vanity! That encumbered them so truly That neither one would meet! And dance in the mirror

Questions of adultery

Where can we break eggshells? And meet as lovers. When can two lovers kiss, and tell? Their hearts contents to one another. What they’ve shared together Under the covers!

The juryman hammers!

She breathes into her heart the moons light Breathes into her soul the weary night! The crown of thorns; its incubus stars The brigadier’s landmine legs and arms...
