But must live with

Fears; and feelings of dying.
Or question
When will . . .

Out of the blue
my lover came to me
Then out of the blue
he was gone.
My love for him
never ended...
Thirty years that
Took us through:
A husband or two,
children,...

With toes curling
in and out on the
the thick pile rug,
I begin to
imagine in my head
The words to pen
that set us apart
and unequal

Fingers play
the keys
I hear
in my head
Now . . .

spitting
Tingles the flesh
as I walk
through clouds
and a blank horizon.
The rain tingles
stirring awareness,
How alive I feel.

He waits in despair
Hoping his one true
love would appear.
She's aloof and
refuses to talk
The blowouts and
the misdemeanors
in the mind is all
contained for now.
What has become
of him?
She's . . .

<h2>The smell of autumn
leaves permeates my
senses. Someone's burning:
The Raking Time is here.

In between summer and winter
there is an elusive
season called Spring.
So inadequate I don't

had I taken the time to know him.

Anger tenses every muscle
frustrated for so long
over what?
Apathy perplexes me.
Is there an answer I
should find?
How long will this
awful state of mind last?
I can not breath.
I see

Upon the weathered
window pane,
Birds argue
Feathers fly!
A squaking frenzy!
Birds are all in it
for the bird
they are.

Over the house where I lay my head.

Every autumn since the beginning

The steady forces of nature
are constant . . .
