The widening under my eyelids And slowing of my breath The stretch in my jawline And soft fall of my hair The tip-tap of my keyboard And the glow of fluorescent lights The anticipation of waiting And nervous pacing of my heart Night shift is about to start

Poetry: Half A Jar Of Jam
For a friend of the fishes, Volley. I didn’t really think we’d be friends for a good while after I first met you, but hey – I’m super glad we are and that’s life! I’ll never forget the …err Heated discussion We had in the GAF that first day For what it’s worth I’m sorry…
Poetry: Rubies On Fire
Sweetly sighing sounds of sin On a Sunday afternoon It’s a fleeting lapse, le petit mort Such a fine and fearless feeling Dropping my beautiful dewy days in Dedication to my own delight Rowing a righting ship of richly Star-redded rubies on fire Merry laughter ringing out Meddles and masquerades In truth, I am my…
Poetry: You Are A Queen
