There’s nothing quite so poetic As your smile in my memory It was heaven and it was hell But more than anything else it was real In a way that meant something because Very few things in your story actually were // We sit here at the cusp of autumn And the cycle has broken…

Poetry: Underneath The Greenwood Trees
For Victory, may he e’er hear a certain bird sing a midnight song. // Can you hear the rushing hush-hush-hush When the trees are talking rush-rush-rush And the stars burn brightly touch-touch-touch The birds cuckoo shush-shush-shush When I make love to you brush-brush-brush // All my love, Marie Athena
Poetry: Rose Red
vampires don’t always come by secret in the night sometimes they come in the brightest day with lights a’shining little laughs and very scary senses of humour to steal the Rose Red from my arteries lucky for me blood is a renewable resources and like the trees I plant in all the fertile hearts I…
Poetry: Wrote The Stars Into Life

Underneath the stress of a new day a new life Free and floating higher on inner strife My chest hurts a bit and my breath catches And under all the stress the pattern matches I can’t come last running my own race Peace of mind and guarding my embrace Even though I can feel when…
Poetry: Cliff
I’ve been here before I once stood on the edge of a cliff And I jumped off without a parachute Because someone told me he’d catch me When I fell and I believed him // He didn’t lie that time He caught me alright In a steel trap with jaws and teeth That tore at…
Poetry: Muddy
Sometimes in my heart the cracks show And no amount of tears can cry the pieces back together A younger me, less confident and more afraid Would have said that this is weakness But I am not weak nor am I unduly strong I am built of the same Earth that I lie on I…
