Warmed us.
With yellow rays.
Beneath the gilded sky.
Silent, unyielding, powerful.
The sun.

Last gasp—
a warm fall day,
scent of a full woodshed,
and knowing tonight I will need
a fire.

A fire
burns from one red
bulbous tip to the next
and turns my souvenir matchbook
to ash.

Scattered.
To the four winds.
Never to be rejoined.
For as long as I ever live.
My heart.

Escape
is so easy
at this stage of life, just
memories piled up, with no place
to go.

To go.
What's for dinner?
Too much take out- that's what.
I know home cooking isn't dead.
Cook some!

13th of never
Desire
piles high on top
of loneliness's spire --
what is it that your face, so wan
retires?

Alone.
In the dark night.
Spinning forever round.
Without life, purpose or meaning.
Astroids.

Astroids,
born of circles
drawn to four perfect points,
intersect and fill the sky plane--
star struck.

Star struck.
In hollywood.
Big stars and fancy cars.
Stores catering to the elite.
Envy.

Success!
The woodshed’s full,
daring winter to come.
Time to take stock of a summer
well spent.

Well spent
After a day
Listening to her talk
Incessantly- unyielding chatter!
Ear plugs?

ear plugs
won't drown the sound
of life's eternal scream
or death's steady marching beat to
conquer

My death,
as you well know,
will come as no surprise.
It’s just the time and place that are
[FONT=&quot]in doubt [/FONT]

I’m yours.
For the taking.
You need only ask me.
And I'll give you all that I am.
My love.
