Midnight Guitar
 
This midnight guitar
holds me up a little,
 
With her clear skin,
her varnish of beauty,
 
Her waist so thin,
her hips full of music.
 
Slowly I do begin
to feel less heavy.
 
Alone I commune
with ironic chords.
 
But still I’d prefer
to hold you, lointaine.
 
 
 
Felines 

The cat who tickles
the evening star
with her tail
as she travels
a twilight wall 
in cold blue air, 
four legged ballerina
dancing on broken 
glass in space,
electric princess 
who finds me amusing,
exemplifies something 
in her character,
not only enigmatic 
grace, clairvoyance,
warm milky fur 
on nocturnal patrol,
the female of duality 
become compliant,
the tiger reduced to 
manageable dimensions.
