Dragon

The animal creaks and groans loudly,
it clangs and rattles incessantly.
The metal scales beat and pound
on each other.

It clanks back and forth, back and forth,
swaying through the night as it
roars mercilessly across the
countryside, its tail whipping to
and fro.

I sit safe and snug inside the belly
of the beast, watching as the
lights flick by at alarming speed.
I’m not afraid,
the beast will protect me.

As we scream into the station
it vomits out its passengers and is
still for the moment, panting.

Then like a shriek,
the little man in the
tight black suit and black hat
blows his whistle and waves.

Reluctantly, the beast moves again,
building up speed, lurching,
howls back into the night.


                                          

Acid Rain

Your love is like acid rain,
and me with no umbrella.
It pours down and rips the
flesh from my bones.
It seeps inside my marrow
and destroys me.
I am on my knees
before it.
Did I say?
I love the rain.

Spider Webs

Spider Webs


I walked up the stairs
and felt the clingy fingers grab my arm.
I suppressed a shudder and
pulled off the thin invisible fingers
of webs on my arm.
Like faded dreams of mother gone again,
brother come back.
Things from the past that won’t go away.
They tug at my mind and whisper in
my ear.
They refuse to be put away – forever.
I dust and dust to keep it all clean, and yet,
at night, those spiders,
they come back again.
