Be My Trailblazer

Trilobite by trilobite, we scale the ocean floor
soon to find we hate to rhyme and we
go score the shore.
Mathematical mermaids merge mushrooms with kelp
which they have created "mushelp".
Indigenous caterpillars produce sweet song
calculating cacti blossoms premature.

Pajama Limbs

I trust that this is the new order

or suit cases and love

that when a case is packed

there is no room for me.

I wrestle with myself at night

trying to dislodge the illusions

of fairy tales and the grandiose lifestyle

of the rich and famous.

All I want is you to be unpacked

placed right by my side.

It feels like I am breathing through iguana lungs... 

the more I run, I can't catch the falling leaves.

And I feel a poetic whim 

breeching on the horizon

far above the cameras

and clouds

that no other starfish

could ever dream

of reaching. 

Bad Roads

I go down a few bad roads
that lead to dead ends
and that leads to depression.
WHere is my cul-de-sac?

Mercury Seesaw

A dragging swoosh
sung a symphony in the wind
that tickled the tree branches bare.

Silver collected confidence
in the burgundy drinking room,
the table swallowed my sheer stocking legs
and your bow tie is marvelous tonight.
