A warm baking sunset spreads me across the dirt

As sundown plows vacancies of worthless earth

Before sunrise explodes the midnight crows

Warning of another victim under

If I were a man of wild horses

 

I would be able to run free

of indignation and angst

to move and flow with the wind

 

I would be able to run free

of injustice and servitude

The miracle of man in God we trust or not are inconsequential

Opening the shades of my lids and the vinyl front room window

I see the moon and stars just before the burning

Relax in dissipation

anticipation morning call

anxiety never stalls

with a quick fix

mix of alcohol;

no alarms-no fear

to lighten the load.

Watch how the ice cubes fight

to float in tequila and orange

Feeding Sharks
I know that if I jump into you I won’t hit the bottom
That’s not what I am afraid of                 
Some people give the appearance of being deep
Then you find out that hard way
That jagged rocks hide in shallow murky waters

matching the stained faces of your sleepy toddlers
you drag to wal-mart at 11 pm
to buy wonder bread and mayo
and check the ATM
to find
the man of the house
drained your account
on beer again
you at least

This knife is sharp enough to make a rainbow bleed

A thousand pieces of ribbon in the sky

Get caught in treetops and buildings

I wonder how she got to this spot so far from where she was

I wonder where these thoughts go when fear shreds them apart

Little girl why are you so
