“Past moments segmented euphoric,
notebook in the back of my jeans”
It used to be a pocketed feeling,
today it’s the air that I breathe
They used to visit when I would invite them,
now they’re my shadow unseen
Blanketing my world with their lettered embrace,
to inspire, enthrall—and redeem
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2020)
Every Moment
What every man would like to say,
and every woman like to hear
What every moment would then embrace
—released to so endear
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2020)
If, As Emily Said...
“Dying is a wild night
and a new road”
Then
Darkness is passion untamed
—on a highway to hell
