the dead
don't walk around
seeking life to devour
in some macabre thriller dance
they sleep

to dream
and not to give
not to give out too much
too much information of yourself
your self

Get it,
push to the front,
the Friday of black souls.
The last shall be first, like in the
Bible.

Story is a countable noun, so I used stories. If this is cheating, shoot me.



Stories,
as yet untold,
lie quietly and wait.
Dormant like seeds not quite ready
for spring.

lifts me
beyond the shame
for a fragile moment
the waves crashing against the rocks
of time

Of time,
I’ve heard it said,
it’s fickle and impatient;
a petulant child waiting for
no man.

I wait
for your footsteps,
listen for the floor creak,
wonder at the quiet of night,
always.

My friend --
under my skin
inside my brittle bones
well beneath every half-curved-smile,
you are.

You are
my turtle dream
plodding wearily back
to the merging of pathways
more green.

More green
she said in haste,
fertilizer in hand,
help me spread the seeds of our love.
Dig deep.
