in fevered dreams i spoke
the daughter I never had
but named before she took
stood in the door, twilight lit,
hand on the jam
as if pausing
the daughter I never had
looked at me intent
expectant, anticipatory;
over my shoulder
toward the girl, hair long,
loose, tied back in bow,
the daughter I never had,
"go to sleep honey,
maybe we can try again
soon…" soon.
in fevered dreams I spoke to
the daughter I prayed for
once but never had.

La belle dame
sans merci,
Je vous vois
choisir
dans la danse d'air
compagnons
attente ailleurs
morphed du
cocon
dans la beauté
combien de temps
vous seul durerez?

but sweet that hot day
Curious, toe to water
cold, cold
but sweet that hot day
September
when we sought the river
I recall
the ease
with which we relate
always
thinking the best of another.
Day of little words
today
I am happy
in a soft glow
of truth to self
and joy
for friends
who take me as I am.
September 28, 2008 - Sunday
and into the sun
In a search for self
I broke
me
and broke away
from prevalent social ideologies,
detaching from the world
and yet more aware of it;
in breaking
and breaking
I stepped outside
id and ego
and into the sun.
lyric unnumbered
thinking about
yesterdays
I have had these thoughts before
don't say
goodbye
don't say
goodbye
just fade away
don't say
goodbye
just fade away
leave me
in the dark
where the nights were too sweet

I, Honoria
You,
women,
slivers of my heart
strong
I so admire
and honor
meekly
you are a mirror
reminding me
I am you,
we are,
we are.
I, Gloriana
The killing spree
is not over;
the second in line,
mother, on the morrow beacons
any day
any day, now
and I will do it
not for you, for me
because I have the strength
and a world
of love, now
to see me through it.
I will survive you,
have survived you.
