~Abstract Thoughts~, and, *Unused Titles*

~At times
I can’t go on,
So
But-where
Happens.~

~Repeat
Is time.~

~Maybe, I’d be worth
Sleeping with
It someone dreamt
With me.~

~To Too,
I every you.
Too To,
I every you.~

~Did I forget to mention
The dead moth, and the anger
I felt at myself for leaving the pot
Of corn-on-cob water on the stove
Overnight under the light?~

*The Ladybug and The Snail*
*Renditions*
*The Normal Human Being*
*Excuse Me?*
*Jerked Prunes*

~I don’t understand
The Moon’s affect.
I understand
The Moon’s effect.~

~As I butterfly around
In my mind, I glimpse
The pinnacle of promise,
Paper shredded.~

~As if a ghost
Had touched my cheek,
I jerked away.
Who wouldn’t?~

~No limits within me,
Except self.~

~The sound of a voice
Can echo through life.
Which one wins?~

*Dinosaur’s Embrace*
*Don’t ‘Read’ Me!*
*Life and Head*
*That Isn’t Real*
*I Miss You, Doc*

~Why can’t scent be duplicated
By medium?~

~My mother was an artist,
Is an artist,
Within me.~

~I believe words have become
Constrictive. I believe political
Correctness exemplifies
This problem of labeling
As intolerance.~

~Why is this angel’s kiss
Still waiting to be lipped?~

*Another Other Mother?*
*A Molecular Impossibility*
*Strike!*
*You Are Not A God!*
*The Biggest-Calmest - Moo*

~Crows don’t cry in the dark,
Nighthawks do.~

~Pure poetry
Doesn’t exist.~

~Ha! Hearts!
A Suit of Love!~

~Dry-drinking. Mind, beer and
Reality pursuing naught.~

~Tarantulas crossed the road
As the journey began.~

*My Baby Sister is Dead*
*Bum’s Rush*
*Grandpa Rosemary Plant*
*Same Backyard, but Older*
*Passion, as a Problem*

~Soon, tomorrow,
Time will pass.~

~There is not another
Dancer, you see?~

~Past is never,
Perfected.~

~This is the house
That smoke comes from.~

~Do you think I think the worst of everything
Because the worst is yet to come?~
