Hopelessly Overdue Train

Gliding soundlessly through the bleak nightThe haunted souls were weary of the lightsTheir days were wakeful with the plightsTheir nights sleepless with these barefoot strides A beautiful oak with crumbling leavesHad just begun shedding it's mightReminiscing passions that were bound to grieveIt rooted strongly for those benign delights In this lane abundant with streetlightIt gave …

With a rapture akin to fear, a day becomes longer than a year.

31 Days of October

While I may have been on an hiatus in October, there's someone who certainly hasn't been on one. Producing 31 paintings for the 31 days of October, she made the month eventful, enchanting and meaningful.

Peanut Butter Diamond

A sale in souls went badCompensated by the breaths they had They saw that cold fire glowBut they didn't feel the warmth just the snowToo close would be to burnToo distant would be to yearn A border is where that comfort is bornNeither indifference; nor understandingFloating gently and not harsh landing I shut my eyes …

Bereaved Butterfly

Turn back to and don't look for it aheadThat wretched destiny sheltered in fate's run-down shedYou like your truth processed and not served rawTo be gulped down like juice or comfortably with a straw There's velvet in your stepsWhere it all converges at a point You gently nudged herBut that broke her wingsAnd now there's …
