The Aftermath (Lunes)
the night drowned
blue, silver and black ashunder quartered moon
honey-sipped, the waves
quickly swelled into a tsunami
drained of salt
bittersweet like grapefruit
sucking tears, words and flesh --
i drifted, swallowed
dry by sea --
shattered shell, deranged of memories
from your leaving

My four poems are included in dVerse Anthology (2013) 1. Fear
2. Of this morning sun and peaches
3. Better than I am
4. Peace haiku
Better than I am (Ghazel Sonnet)
Red lights at the bar flickers smoky flame
I order wine & cheese, savoring flame
Slow music brings strangers to dance sweet &
tangled kisses -- but I drift, waning flame
Moonlight gleams on my ordinary face
Anxieties mothballing, snaring flame
Heat soaks my hair into knotted brown ropes,
I pen words -coarsely pale as dying flames
I might look better if you dim down lights
To candle tap, softer flowering flame
My dreams bring me wading out to the sea
Weaving a storm with fingers - snapping flames
You gaze at me with awe, breathless, inflamed -
Here I am, better than I am - beautiful flame
