Disquiet in my breast release,
your touch me don't deny.
Love me, touch me, tender please,
hold this rainy night.

THISTLES - and the like
Poking through my socks,
they gang up on my ankles,
like mobsters with ice picks,
lusting for cotton and flesh
Thumbs and fingers
bleeding,
Picking angry . . .

Mind journey to the edge,
a precipice of dialogue,
where cosmics' pallet goes un-pressed,
symbols dissolve,
in the shadows of stars uncast.
Illusions release from boned compress,
dream . . .

Megan named her Maggie
and calls her Maggie May.
Mommy calls her Dog Pog
and tells her sit and stay.
Daddy calls her Maggie No!
and Maggie runs away.

Swishing nearing
Leaning to me
Nearing
Di-elating pupil-sating
Pher-harmonicating
Penetration sense-iating
Sleeves brushing
touching
instigating
Echo's down
my spine
sublime
She passes . . .

GRIT AND BARE, I'LL MEET YOU THERE
Hair thick to thin,
hips thin to thick,
add double chin.
Thoughts bright to dim,
aches dim to bright,
add barely sin.
In this we share, . . .

Fifteen minutes is the time it takes to change a tire, unless you can't find the jack handle, then it takes a short skirt and pouty lips, unless you have a five o'clock shadow, then you better . . .

I found myself. I have come to a place of rest,
like a verb become a noun,
"to be," opposed to "do," I do suggest.
If I were but the words, "I am," . . .

There is a piece of plywood
in my bedroom on the floor
I woke to find my head
fastened to it with a wood screw
my shoulders, arms, and pelvis too
but there was no blood
to believe and ogle . . .

Thoughts striving, finding, clenching.
A haunting beastly presence,
that which imagined, or
garden dresses wedd.
A childs' mind,
at start,
at end.
So,
what so,
of the heart?

My vision burning bright tonight,
No bitterness see I insight.
I fear the feeling will not last.
My cares and burdens not far past,
but past not fears' designs, they last.
When will . . .

There is that moment,
when crossing over,
when not knowing,
they work to swallow
a dry lump of nothingness
that - won't - go - down...
What of that fear . . .

Turning the handle
Anticipation
Threshold underfoot
Years in a slide show
Over the threshold
Frustrations end,
defeated
Inside
Matted carpet underfoot
Scanning upward
Seated
on the threaded . . .

Saturday
by Uncle Robert (39)
Love has a mimic,
it moves toward me,
invading,
pretending to complete
what is already finished,
as if grace were
not enough.
Love's Breath

Over the hills and through the
woo, woo,

to Grandma's house I go.
"How is your dog?" She asked.
"Sick, she had another seizure - . . .
