Mined
I ask for salvation
From your voice
That becomes me not
But has become my own
God must extend mercy
To me
For how the wrong hand
I mistook
She Knows
As sure as she stands
Having stopped running
And with a shortness of breath
Her wallowing ends here
A lesser woman
Would be smiling by now
At the thug long gone
In the rear view mirror
He’ll not admit
She is as good as gold
Like the flecks in her true green eyes
He tastes her pureness still
Mindful Mess
The mystery, made clear
To me
Alone
The mind, mesmerized
A mess
Forgone
The malady, mindful
And yet
Reckless
The medium, mistaken
A wrong
Address
Instead Of Dying
Walk this heat-weary mile
Throat parched
Painful shoes
Nearly no breath left
Don’t blame the mistake
The map you made
When your eyes were younger
Tip your hat to the hurt
Toss your map to the sky
And take aim
Let those smithereens shade you
Praise the what-lies-ahead
Without thinking twice
Walk forth
Miss, not by mistake
