A Lot of Luxe




He lives
amid a lot
of luxe,

devoted
to what
lasts:

illusions
of
eternity:

gilded
bits
of Past.

Anguish




Residing
in poverty,
anguish
is lack:

retracting,
subtracting:
exacting this
punishment:

love
doesn’t
want you
back.

Not All Naked Angels




Not all naked angels dart & flit.
Flight can make their calves
& thighs grow to prodigious size.
Some have to sit.

It's Often the Blue One You Notice




It’s often the blue one
you notice –

emerging like some
strange new lotus –

which blooms all alone
in the pond – resumes

the great journey
the rest of us

had to forsake
to the random Beyond.
