Odetta

sing it up da hurt
sing it up da savin' grace
sing till it be SUNG !

fianally arrived

depleted, shrunken
ghosted, void, and evicted
finally... just here.

melting

Everything I am

All of me there is to give

flows without reserve

Traces

weeping into sleep
she slips gently to her left
to a space he kept

slaked

explosive loving

flowing streams crash and tumble

then rest in ripples

'Lil' Easy' - Charleston, WV

almost forgotten
overlooked and underloved
secret Charleston

the price

life at dead center...

you can reach anybody,

and can't touch a soul.

"Pets" One Single Impression

I sit like this now...
i sit like this when you're not home
so what's with the look?!?

...and when you visit
recalling....
just remember,
I've never been here....

Reflecting

beauty comes in twos

still water, ponds and puddles

prove we take up space

Desert or Deserted

standing weeping bones

ancient ruins marking time

remembering love

"city of light", watercolor, Jeanne K Cochran

in a brilliant light
a city steeped in spirit
and timeless virtue

damned romance so thick!
my eyes bleed the memories,
we should be making...

pearldrops on petals

dew dance in the early light

a bee lights with love

beneath everything
the sweet murmur of music
woven through my life
