The Garden of His Soul

Roses on the balcony - Friday, 31 May 2013 - Reno, Nevada

Roses on the balcony – Friday, 31 May 2013 – Reno, Nevada

White roses, wine glass

Only reflect his dearness.

Dinner with my love.

Orwell Knew It

Sanctifying greed,

Demonizing poverty –

How did we get here?

Blueberry Sunday

Soothes memories long ago

When pain took control.

Gift

Love is waking up

To the smell of hot coffee

Knowing he brewed it.

Worry

Middle of the night

Always interrupts her sleep,

Already fearful.

Vengeance

I imagine you

Old and puffed up from botox

And filled up empty.

Disguised as caring –

“Marry a cash register” –

You give your advice.

Full moon’s got my back:

Farewell

Last day of six years:

Knowing that makes steps heavy

Going in to work.

Sofa Alone

Phone call interrupts

His tears and separation

From the one he loves.
