Reading
Poetry befriends me
Writing through clenched teeth
Poetry and I part.
Wondrous words
Countless choices
Composing imagery
Onerous task.
Words align
Crisis averted.

No escape
Bars surrounded her,
No exit, no escape.
His words continued to slur,
Until caught by the end of her cape.
~2/8/11
Sick
Stuffed up noses.
Red with constant blowin’.
Chills pulsating from head down to toeses.
No skin showin’.
Freezing and crying.
Headaches.
Oh man, am I dying?
Dear God, please hit the brakes.
