Amidst great spaces, I’m
behind, watching,
catching glimpses of what you will become. With

guarded boundaries.
How much
I love . . .

Another thought conveys this time
It may be simple or complex
A hint of logic or nonsense
From crosses burned to carefree ways
From those of earth to neon play . . .

THE AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMAN
I am a woman, not just any woman but an African American Woman.

I've been toying with an idea, but not as yet followed through. So I've decided to conduct my own personal poll. Since I'm asking for the readers' opinion, keep in mind that there are no wrong answers. . . .

Fair enough you left
Yes forever! but you did
You placed your self made
Self to my face
Thinking it's fun.
Bad enough we dined,
You suited yourself to taste
I did hold for a stretched . . .

The boy looks out on sun splashed fields
Across from which rise blue mountains,
Above which circle lazy buzzards and raptors
Amid cottony clouds painted on blue eternity.
The heat of the day . . .

She loved him so much
She shot him twice
Left him once
For dead
In love’s name

With joy we celebrate him

Who invited this clown?
I don't recall sending an invitation
Yet here he is
Pain in the rearend
Someone escort him out
And tell him to take his vile friends with him
To include chemo, . . .

It rained today in buckets
The sky so gloomy and gray
Was that a flower laughing
I sang melodies alone
To the rhythm of the rain
The flowers might have heard me
For when the rain stopped falling . . .

The bright sun greeted my morning
With a wink and warming smile
I could smell the roasting coffee
As songbirds . . .

Yet here they sat finely tuned
No presents graced holidays
The smile gave and . . .

A closed book can never answer
The inner feelings of the soul
Where right and wrong seek approval
As answers can't be found in stone
Reason lurks in every corner
As belief just . . .

You say you can deal with my disease, my eventual confinement
You say you will always love me more than the grains of sand
Yet the band is playing . . .
