Welcome to my poetry page.  I hope you enjoy the featured poems.  I change the poems periodically, so please check back!

      Vacuity

Scarlet against sable

              an ebb-tide retreating

     Hollows of memory

                   Hollows of agony

            Echoing                Echoing

Spears of feeling

              Ricocheting in caverns

     Firelight dancing

                    Dragon shadows

        Fighting   Flying  Fleeing

The Dance                    The Ritual

     Embracing    Enclosing    Entombing

          Frozen monuments glowing

                 Lifeless in the sun

Encapsulated by dawn

            Reflected memory

                               of moonlight

Haunted  hills                Still sound

                     the Banshee cry

          the shimmering mirage

                             Fledgling day dies

                   Even as it

                                 Rises

​

Glowing Curtain
Firelight dancing.../Haunted hills Still sound/ the Bansih cry

Us

              I ask you

           for the time

           and you tell

             me about

​

 The Karma Lie

 

Karma

lures with her lies

Promises

You get

what you give

 

Believing they got

Because they're good

They look at

Others who suffer

And declare 

Pain as punishment

 

Karma

Calls self-serving

Charity 

And erases

Empathy
