Abeyance
Raging
against the machine
Dying
in the light
Counting
the hours till darkness
Waiting
— for delight
(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
Storm Clouds
I wanted to speak my mind
until I changed it
I wanted to write a book
without the critic
I wanted to fall in love
until I lost her
I wanted wealth and fame
— without the thunder

Cosmic Shelf
A Shooting Star
In A Mason Jar
Preserved And Waiting
So Near — So Far
(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
The Weight
Some carry the burden
early
Some carry the burden
late
Some carry the burden
deep inside
Some carry the burden
— of fate
(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
Circuit Bard
Neurons
are mindful
And fire
as healers
Defying
the symptoms
Igniting
— the cure
(Dreamsleep: July, 2024)
