Stuff that gets you through the night...

Sometimes a kind word or fitting wavelength is all you need to get up and go on. Herein lie sketches on worthy things that may reach you in some random way. I'll never know their effect on you. I only know, it is for you, that I write them.

A poem: Dog

February 14, 2018 in Poetry, Creative Writing, Creative Workshops

You saw it coming, made a painting, serotonin, before moody April. Inspiration sucked like a waterfall returning to its spring.

It saw me clinging, took a beating, left me feeling a wall behind skin.

The windy soul, highborn ghoul, has no hands to make me return. He howled at my back, I was nearly in the sack, a hooded soul drinking from a bowl of black nectar.

She painted the possibility of a lion in a dog, made a mark with her sword, and behold, the doggone days in the mane of the elemental beast.
