A letter from anyone
A letter has been thrown from the window
of a white girls’ school-bus to no one

birds and cats of this world

Chris has sent me a thousand birds’ calls.
They are muffled by my neighbor’s cat
hungry, forlorn after giving birth. . . .

Okay girls and boys, I have been a member of Gather for a little while now and it has changed somewhat from when I joined to what it is now.
I remember this as a place more for writers than for games . . .

(A poem, kinda - more like lyrics. It would be a song if I could write music)

to thrift store jeans
and manufactured angst
she drowned her happiness in bottles
then peeled the labels back

Elegy
Evening comes with homing birds.
The flying wings are slowing down.
Memories want to fill the gaps
at this moment; hunt for pieces
scattered in a room we visit . . .

Never project emotion.
They will only mistake
anger for arrogance
tears for weakness
If you show fear
they will strike.
Smile. Smile. Smile.
Shake hands.
Make eye contact. . . .

Ant goes in circles.
Over and over again.
What is it thinking?

People are here and
then they leave. I wonder

Hues of yellow, pink and red
Made up the little bed
Come back to me little one
Your life had only just begun
Now floating high amongst the atmosphere . . .

From the shadows
upon high
wathcing you with
a black crow eye
death lurks on
the edge of night
when the living

for it stalks . . .
