Three Published Poems

1.
Untitled
If Death is a woman,
my greatest feat would be
to sleep with her until dawn,
walk out alive
and never breathe a word
to another soul
of my adventure.

(1991, pub. 1997)



2.
Womb
Child,
what do you think about
swimming in that sweet soup?
Your protein dreams,
DNA reams,
the bio-electric pulse of sense complete?
...when you are Born,
try to remember what it is like.

(1998, pub. 1998)



3.
M-
Healing balms and gentle release
complete us when abstracted
teach fears to cease
There is a strength in You
that stirs my soul
There is a love in You
that makes me whole.

(1997, pub. 1998)
