A shield for the heart

 A shield for my heart

My trepidation

Amuses you

As it opens,  as  control slowly deserts

This is me scrambling for pens

To Capture  you in words

So my senses may catch a breath

But  passions are 

Notorious in their impatience

2021

surrenderer

Rendering my terrors

I am cast adrift, head afloat

It would seem   that you, murky

Hid your depths from  me

but in my being

I knew

As  long you were

I would never drown

2021

the invisible man

 Am I that sexy or

or its what I got, a common refrain
I the man, round butts I see
And I feel my bulge, smiling
looking at my pockets always  papered
these days
the invisible man caught your eye

2021

Dreaming of

 Dreaming of
Jumping jacks
I bouncing in-doors
Tell me  Mr Walrus
Why do you glare behind your tusks
over the swimming pool

as I head for the steamed  glass door

2021

Remind me

Remind me

that these breeches don’t  fit

my  dream  has cracked the border

and reminds me in present tense

of my prison

Blaspheming my history

looking at the impossible

Relive it in visions

So that it comes to be.

2021

it did conjure

And frightening luck it did conjure
Floating, tethered by star rays
As I paddle a realm of long forbiddens
to time, down the waterfall
Flowing to the sea
of my personal impossible

2021

In the Mudra

Sitting  past  the storms

I stare once more

At  twilight's shiny floor

And  I have  no rudder

So with no gills I am under

Dark is the abyssal

Waiting for the demons as I fall

But  I have no flesh to breathe

And I am safe from their maddening teeth
