whistles slightly in the window screen
and I can no longer . . . more

Without a name you are
nor are you with a purpose

How do I slip out of my
ordinary existence into the
electric
sensual-ness
of your hand
it's so warm and
mine fits so snuggly against
it
I close my eyes
to imagine
my heart feels swollen . . . more

But the booze went to my head.

And I wound up in your bed.

And lit my body's fire
Pressed your lips . . . more

a chubby pink child
rests on a bench
in her mother's arms,
eating long strands of blond hair
in affectionate clumps,
and staring at embracing lovers
who smile back.

I stand at my window
and gaze down on my deserted block,
barely lit by a single street lamp.
Suddenly, I see him,
The old man sitting lonely
On the September cold, . . . more

It is a hot Sunday morning.
My restless eyes move around the chapel
And focus on the old man
Who sits across the aisle
In a homemade wheelchair.
I wonder what he thinks and feels
As he blinks . . . more

Leaning on the cracked, discolored concrete wall,
I stare down into the sluggish green creek.
My eyes focus on faded beer cans,broken bottles,
And semi-shredded pampers.
My thoughts slide inevitably . . . more

Looking in each possible direction,
Hoping to receive,
Eager to believe
that there is love
Praying that time's on my side
As I swallow my foolish pride . . . more

And realized that it was truly over.
I lay on my back
with tears dripping into my ears
while in utter despair . . . more
