Life!

What a mess!
Think I'll put on a dress,
and paint my nails.

That never fails,
to lift my spirit.
Things to do?

I don't wanna hear it!

Rainbow Nation

Dream a window,

climb on through,

without a thought,

or two.


Feel the sunshine,

hear the wind,

go visit the

cat that grinned.


Walk barefoot,

dirt between the toes,

live free,

no need for clothes.


See happy faces,

folks that smile -

who love you when they meet you,

'cause that's their style.

Lord Have Mercy!

could i dig a wormhole

into the past, and stand

up? i need a sharp

spade and strong arms,

my feet are set in stone,

my heart crushed beneath.

death, a single bullet -

wrong time, wrong place

in the presence of a madman.

the mothers, the mothers,

weep. guns multiply

while the children lay, dead.

Word Hunting

words scattered about
autumn leaves, green grass
peaks through. i walk softly,
not wanting to disturb.

the wind is not so gentle.
words saturate molecules,
specificity obsesses -
sometimes I think

the Earth ready to explode
with words and fill the Moon
with flowers and oxygen,
just for me.

Peace Of Mind

Voices walk softly
amongst the mind fields
of past wars, it took
some time to bury
memories of anger,
hatred, the brain
is only so big,
the mind
fallow.

Madness On The 4th Of July

I don't know how I got there.

A series of poor choices, I'm

sure. There I was, on the back

of a thrown together dirt bike,

my arms around a crazy man,

roaring down the highway

at 90 passing a motorhome

shooting fireworks out of

the roof. I thought I was riding

my broom too close to the ground,

and being chased by the stars.

Can't remember how I got home.


~Sabrina

No Particular Direction

Once, I heard, if lost -

to stay put. I wait,

for a road

to be built.

I watch the trees

grow. To them,

I do not exist.

I lay awake,

all night, to listen

to the darkness.

Sunshine burns

my eyes open,

day after day.

The Bible Said So

Every group needs a scapegoat,

someone to blame for the troubles

among them. All energy focused

on one, banished from the

circle. The crowd waits to experience

peace, but it never comes; they

focus on another.

About Me

I am a dreamer,

I am here to tell you

how it could be,

how it should be,

if only we, could

believe. Don't

talk to me of practicality,

reality, the inherent evil

of mankind.

You have the power.

We have the power.

Let's get along.

Notes From The Cold War

Being forced to share

is not, why I fear Communism;

it is, simply, the Gulags.

Where I Went Wrong

I often wonder,

about their lack of empathy.


Then I remember,

how I allowed

their father


to treat me.

Buzzed

"Oh!" They say,
"Bad timing" -
after we

have fucked,

they find a
sweet girl
to marry.

on the horizon

sleepy eyes drift float
on distant waves unable
to gently crash for good
