The Emotional Disaster The sky cracks open inside me. Tears spill like rivers in the night. I try to hold them back, but they fall with weight, hitting the floor.

Clutter Inside My Head Sometimes I sit and wonder why my thoughts keep fighting for the light, a jumble of words that twist and turn,
To Kill a Mouse Three cats crouched in a line of shadow, eyes like gold coins in a gambler’s hand, the floor hummed with the sound of patience,
timeless and reaching a look in the mirror with vision for the future led to the heart of it radioactive with passion advantage of local's insight

The Seeker’s Pendulum Dowsing The pendulum sways above the map, A small bright stone upon a chain, It turns and moves with quiet will,
My Pot-Bellied Husband He stands like a proud little barrel, Hands on hips, grin wide as the moon, His shirt strains to keep the peace,
The Pen That Writes Itself by Automatic Writing The candle burns low, my hands are still, The room is quiet, the clock unmoved,
The House That Breathes There is a house that breathes at night, Its windows sigh when the moon climbs high, And the walls remember every word,
Toileting in Nature Blooming here on my new loo, the wind hums soft through the trees, a bird sings like it knows my secret,
Juggling Love You toss affection through the air, a dance of risk and flame. I catch it, drop it, catch again, each throw a different name.
I Close My Eyes My eyes are curtains. I close them to keep you out. You are in my thoughts like smoke, a slow poison, curling around my mind.
Bleeding My Heart Out for Love I gave you my heart in quiet ways, Not wrapped in ribbons, just open and warm. You took it softly, then turned away,
