I was crushed into
The dust; I gazed heavenward
For my chariot
Defeat

April
Once we walked among
The blossoming trees; fragrance
Enveloped us whole.
Tsunami
The sand dried beneath
My feet; I craned my neck to
See the crest, breathless.
Lady of the Water
She walks on winding
Waves; she cannot forget the
Sea; she knows chaos.
Wasting
Nevertheless, there
Is less and less of me each
Day, I dwindle down.
Lie Fallow
hide your secrets, shame
in me like the winter ground
I die so you live .
Amok
Scratch the surface of
Civilization, and our
Savagery shows through.
Desultory
Listless and lost at
The end of the day, hoping
That something happens.
Releasing
There was a time, you
Would have, should have been mine, but
That will never be.
