In Blue Ink

in blue ink 
my anguished heart spills 
my words smell 
of flowers and pain 
they settle in the blood
that pumps my heart 
taking me inside the stars 
an eternity shining 
and as I breathe, I write 
a lone heartbeat under 
the February sky 

Blogging

time travelling 
on the reader;
qwerty fingers
talking into the light
of the computer 
melting timelines 
in the cadence of
diacritics.

Untangling

untangling 
the heart strings 
Cupid’s arrow 
strikes a chord 

Earth Song

At the aether’s edge 
song of the earth 
in a bird’s heartbeat 

If I Had Some Money

If I had some money 
I’d buy me a donkey
I would laugh my ass off 
Watching him do my laundry.

If I had some money 
I would buy myself a plane 
I would fly it into the eye of a storm 
I would fly it right into a hurricane.

If I had some money 
I would buy myself a Porsche cayenne 
Driving this babe would be so much fun 
I would fly the wind like a bullet from a gun.

But the fact of the matter is
I ain’t got no single dime 
The ‘ifs’ give me a reason to dream 
They also give me a reason to smile. 

Immortalising

Poetry engulfs me
I embrace the words 
Becoming one with my muse..

What Ifs

The riddle of ‘what ifs’
I choose to keep my spirits up ..

Dear Earth

A collaboration with Witty words. 


Dear Earth, 
do not shake 
dear earth 
do not quake 


Dear Earth, 
do not shake us to the core;
we don’t our coil wounded 
like an open sore…

Lit

all verses lead back to me 
inside me
moving through 
my body 
writing into my soul 
letting my heart bloom 
taking me
making me
igniting me
into another verse ..

Alive And Thirsty

in a place 
without water -
I am the thirst 
that can be quenched
