Somewhere in the distance
Thoughts hide from today
Warmed by a far off Sun
Chilled by mountain breeze
They tantalize with shadows
Torment with faint smells
Messages in braille to the sighted
Enigma are their names
Like a memory they fade


Like fingers they stretch
Reaching within for a hold
How many dreams they hold
Their mysical chains bind
Locked into obsession
Without knowing why
Disparate to hold them
Wanting to find their touch

“None of them match?!” Joseph whispers to Joan.
She scans the rainbow display unfettered.
“The sizes aren’t even together.” Joseph continues.
She homes in a few different ones.
“I mean… This bizarre has all kinds stores.” His voice wavers. “I don’t get why we are here.”
She grabs two golden sandals from from different display boards.
“Are you even listening!” He looks at the side of her smiling face.
“The guy behind the counter is blind but not deaf.” She smiles the married woman smile that translates he is not with me.

The sliver of chain shines. Her face wears disdain by design, while the rest of her dresses to the nines. Secretly, some feign shock but jealousy trains some for the crime afoot.
“My god.. ..she’s not breathing!” Someone tells. The reception grinds to a halt.
I drift back
Thoughts tumble away
Leaves run chasing Sun
Chills dance in shadows
The change comes quickly
I drift away
Anticipation for color builds
Loothing the warmth leaving
Deep sapphire skies await
Leaves pale ready to change
I drift along
Embracing the crisp
Final flowers bloom brightly
The gentle breezes talk
I roll with them



Golden strands locked in place
They lift my spirit up higher
Upon their web answers lie
Fixed like stars they guide me
Runaway train forcing the story
Puzzles together as never separated
Clarity strikes when most vulnerable
If we think about it, it’s coincidence
If we look back it’s just inspiration

A dose of fetish. Good friends. An incomparable muse.
I want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think.
