“A happy day feels like…a good day feels like…piano keys leaping and playing, diving in and out of the chords inlaid by the grooves of the bass line, brushing aside the leaves and stem of the notes, while glitter jumps off the sticks drumming the cymbals. A good day has a rhythm of repetition like […]

A slow evening. Watching the planes overhead, Break the deep purple, Break the zen. I became enthralled, By the things she said, “Hello, How are you?” So enraptured. A soul, so beautiful, Her heart, so gifted, My heart was, unknowingly, Captured. Even if it’s only a romance, Watching her smile, That’s all in my head. […]

The Sun’s light shown through the windows and doors of the all white room. The all white curtains stood sentry at the windows, motionless while at attention. She sat at the piano between two, all white columns. Her wrists, in staccato movements, struck the keys with angled elbows, while her mahogany fingers, deliciously, devoured each […]

It was a Summer breeze,On a Saturday eve,From some time ago freed,Coursing through the humidity,Carrying on its winds,A thought conceived.

On October the fifth, I climbed into my mind […]

A beautiful, blue sky day. A few clouds smiled, Nodding as they floated away. The waves fell onto the shore. Glissing notes in harmony, Hooked on the feeling, wanting more. She looked up at me and said… Be my lazy Sunday afternoon. Cool your troubled mind, Surrender willingly. Everything’s here you’ll find, Hold me closely. […]

It was a Summer breeze, on a Saturday eve, from some time ago freed, that carried on its winds, a thought conceived. I placed my cup on the ground, leaned my head back to the sound, so profound in it’s hypnosis reclaiming a memory recently found. I reminisced, on this, on the only life I’ve […]

I, declare that all people are created equal, Don’t pass on this, just pass along this jewel, Eyes on the prize, eyes on the sparrow, American Patriot 2.0, the sequel. Glasses up and Happy Fourth, All colors pop and sparkle. The Year 2024th, so let us push forth, On the fulfillment and promise, Of what it […]

Four chairs. One plate, One fork. Two chairs. One napkin, One partially filled glass. One chair. A microwave meat pie sat, Camping out across the table from him, ignored by the noisy, white conversation, of too many red lettered bills and junk mail. The TV sat just out of view, slightly out of frame, with […]
