In a gilded cage
The moment hidden

Watching
cityscapes
Fade back into stardust
Tell me why

Don’t be afraid
To be a stiletto
In a room of flats

Coffee gone cold
Where did all the hope
Run off to?

Brushing Aside the Curtain
Let's look at this another way, he said,
It's not which side of the mirror is real,
but which you'd prefer to inhabit,
and who you have to kill to stay there.
That's when I knew:
I'd go out with him again,
I'd trust him with my dog,
I'd let him drink my blood,
but I could see by the third drink,
I'd never be good enough for him.

a butterfly’s journey
crushes in seconds

seven blackbirds on a wire
melt into black puddles

desperate fly
lands on my burger
it is november
and i can understand
the desire to just hang on
but, fly,
you made a bad decision
so did i
now i have a crushed fly

coffee shop drive thru
three ravens wait beside the window
for their treats

silent meditation
the dog looks at me
and whimpers
