Mal a Dent

Une avertissement
ignoré hier; aujourd'hui

une monde de douleur.

It's been awhile

Words squeezed painfully
from my mind clank like water
in dry, unused pipes.

Experiment

Alien eyes watch
our petri dish world as we
slowly self destruct.

New Theme

New theme for the week: Outer space

(she said be random, so random it is)

Cocoon

Imagine what might
be birthed from rocky womb. Have
read too much sci-fi.


Concretions at Moeraki, New Zealand.

After Shock

While you drown in fear
I worry Ruamoko
will shake us apart.



* Ruamoko - Maori God of earthquakes.

State of Emergency

My feminist self
hates me for wishing you were
the strong and brave one.

Ready to Explode

I dreamt I made a
big pile of atomic bombs
tied in red ribbon.

Sorry

What is sorry worth?
The wound barely heals before
he scrapes it again.

Last Night

I feel sucked dry and
spat out - resentment a cold
stone in my stomach.

New theme for the week

Affairs of the Heart or Les Amours
