• The Key

    When did you get the key to my door

    It’s been locked for so long

    I remember when I put the bolt and nail it to the floor

    Fear and hurt infused the metal like a song

    You inserted a key

    Turned it to the right

    I stood before you

    I the softest moonlight

    You really looked at me

    Realizing what I was w…Read More

  • April 10th — The Night of Running Cats and Star Eyes

    April 10th begins at dusk.
    It is not a daytime day.
    It belongs to the hour
    when the sky bruises purple
    and the first streetlamp flickers
    like a nervous prophet.

    This is the night
    when all the cats in the neighbourhood
    wake up from their daylight disguises
    and remember who they t…Read More

  • Pouring Emotions

    Streaming tears
    down my face,
    ever flowing
    not from sadness
    nor grief.

    A frenzy you created
    within my body,
    immense emotions flying,
    overwhelming me
    with nowhere to go
    but to trickle down
    my cherry-red cheeks.

  • The Blue Pool
    A young man sipped limoncello, in a bar in the village square,
    He was lonely and heartbroken, you would often find him there,
    His heart was filled with sorrow, he felt twisted and torn inside,
    When a waitress in a black dress, came and whispered as he cried,
    ‘Do you know there’s a blue pool, born out of the mountain str…Read More

    • While I fancy myself a romantic, I think I will avoid this Blue Pool. I have loved a few times and may never love again, but I think I do not want to play the fool. Her pool is enticing, her lips warm with arousal, but dear lady, I will remain on this stool. Sorry HJx, I hope you don’t mind where my mind went as I read your poem. -Curt

  • Glutton…

    they used to tell me
    it looks like I’m hunting trouble
    leaving them thinking I enjoy the drama

    I get it…
    I do
    I can see how it might seem that way to you

    but that’s not it
    I’m not chasing more of the same
    same shit different day
    I actually prefer peace and quiet

    it’s just…
    I’m used to my own darkness
    …my…Read More

    • Exactly Willow. Learning from one’s experiences is not SSDD, it’s growth. And this growth is internal and personal, doesn’t matter what others may think. But if someone is paying attention, this growth becomes obvious and welcomed. -Curt

      • It takes a while to recognize the patterns, but once we do – we grow. And nobody moves at another’s pace. Thank you, Curt
