six weeks history
no more blood or progeny
beginning? or end?

January 18, 2012

clearance delivered
post weeks of inhibition
free movement beckons

January 19, 2012

delivers daily
vital, trivial, wanted
departs, cloud in wake

January 20, 2012

loving though distant
challenges traditions, roles
builds strengths, foreign, new

January 21, 2012

water, over time
gentle, cool, power sublime
to softly smooth flaws

January 22, 2012

ordinary acts
bedrock, infrastructure, frame
love’s longevity

January 23, 2012

creeping up through soles
winter ices sinews, bones
shoulder turns, rejects

January 24, 2012

boy who’s lived three years
locks in with eyes, limpid, dark
ventana to God

January 25, 2012

hour with mat, OM, breath
balance, resilience, strength
return with passion

 

Sorrow by Dechobek at deviantART

Her head
bowed
told more than words
could tell.
Her mother’s heart,
dragged down
the road
to hell.
More than once.
In reality
she feels relief.
Thus her shame
holds hands
o’er face of grief.
And she weeps.

Small Stone, January 5, 2012

Pondering the aftermath
Securely
Wrapped in
Familiar blanket, warm and red
The comfy~cozy nature of the thing
Textured, worn and soft
Soothes the soul of apprehension
Balms incision, post release

 

Not one for resolutions

She committed to no change

She lived her life, post January one

As previously arranged

~

Demolish habits long ingrained?

Shun drink? Self prohibition?

Transform image ~ rebellious, bold

Complacency? Contrition?

~

What thrill or fun would that produce?

Experiences deny?

I’m traveling fast and light, she mused

Livin’ hard ’til the day I die

what won't be
no text
no call
discarded, me
Mama was right
