FROZEN (Sonnet IV)
I am not hiding for fear of what’s come. Rather, in stone I stand frozen and cold, Accepting all I see and hear and some Memory of a time grown far too old. Regret clings harsh, breaking nails on this rock; For so many seasons that come to pass, Bloody stub fingers carve ridges that dock, Fractured, chip’d chards of regret, like fine glass. Thus, I am stone and in fear to change...

UNTITLED
she is in the shadows that nobody sees beneath the eyesight in a corner in a home long forgotten i would not say that she wanders she stays where it is warmer whether it be her mind or the draft in the corner and she will forgive, since forgiveness lives infinitely inside her no regret as the shadows cross her familiar face and how we forget in shadow frame the time away and try to...

Angels: Forgotten How To Fly
I think we might be angels fallen from the sky I think we might be angels who’ve forgotten how to fly I hate that there’s no answer when we ask ourselves why We all seem to remember a joy we’re now denied…. We want to trust in something A soul, a God and an Art We need the love of something Or else inside we fall apart And every day we hope and try To spread our wings and touch the sky But every...

Freight Train Crossing A Road
How is’t I know the sight, fair skies at dawn, The smell of clipp’d sweetgrass out on the lawn; Warmth from the kitchen and warm firelight, blankets and pillows and kisses goodnight. One time believing my world would not change; No thoughts deceiving, lying, hurting—-strange. Remember days building fortresses, yes, Such memories playing now less and less. Why tonight do these...

She's All The Rage: Alice and Wonderland
Pop culture would not be the same without references to the little Victorian character, with her adventures through the Looking Glass and down the Rabbit Hole. Soon we will be saturated with the revival of Alice, a little creation of Lewis Carroll, or more precisely Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, whose gave Alice life. In the beginning, Dodgson intended to entertain a little girl named Alice...

ODE DE TWITTER
When all else fails or my friends desert me Falling oh so lovingly into thee Where else would I deign to be, Oh Twitter! Where else but thee, come hell and high water! Softly I muse an ephemeral tweet In hopes that someday my friends may return But until that day, Oh Twitter, my sweet @ wastingpaper satiates that burn Again, bemusing ephemeral tweets I post in hopes some other friends...

TURDUCKEN DISCUSSION
thebaffled: Turducken: discuss. Never had a deboned turkey stuffed with a deboned duck stuffed with a deboned chicken. This whole Turducken Discussion sounds like a Weird Al song: Twisted Holiday Fare.
