If you want the sun,
Grab it and hold it with your hand.
Otherwise, your spark will fizzle
Beneath the desert's red-hot sand.
If you want the ocean
Sprinkle it on your wrists like perfume.
If you want the stars why settle
When one can land upon the moon?
When icy rain falls
Huddle close to stay warm.
If you want a rainbow
You must first weather the storm.

Pumpkins on the trellis
Fall makes winter jealous
Rainbows adorn maple trees
Leaves cascade zealous
Wrapping my scarf tighter
Massive lawn spiders
Ghosts wear bed sheets
Is it a trick
Or treat

Float like a butterfly
sting like a bee,
swim upon waves
like the fish in the sea.
Tree fingers sway;
wake to see another day;
I don't think I'll ever recover,
He was a phenomenal lover.

spine shivers
as I wade deeper

FINALLY got struck by some inspiration today at the park. Loose watercolor and a reference photo

The back of your heels,
bloody, cut, and blistered. What,

View over a wooden fence towards pastures and hedgerows under a clear, sunny blue sky. Additionally a haiku in white letters. Text:

Summer lays in vain
idle hours dazzle by
before Autumn's shroud

Why did you drink from the cup labeled forbidden.
What mysteries are uncovered which have long been hidden. Unearthed in Mr. Poe's catacombs long ago written.

The #enigma keeps me
Curious,
Keeps me awake
To wonder,
Keeps me humble
Before the vastness
Of what I donโ€™t know
About this brief,
Brilliant mystery
We call
Being alive.

Photo of text:

sheโ€™s yours, but not really
yours, like the rain 
collecting into puddles 
only to evaporate again 
or the earth below your feet
the vines that grow and spread 
wild, never anyoneโ€™s to claim
sheโ€™s the breeze 
that ruffles through your hair, unseen 
sending shivers down your spine 
you can harness the wind
but youโ€™ll never own it
never hold it in your hands 
sheโ€™s the night sky, enigmatic
wide open, yet closed off 
sheโ€™s yours, like the stars
forever out of reach

You carved the loneliness out of me and filled it with warmth, with light. You have a name, a pretty one I say all the time, but from now on I think Iโ€™ll call you sunshine.

New York didn't change
but maybe I did.
Building after run-down building,
crib after crib.
Forgotten factories with
missing windows and broken glass,
enveloped in musty airโ€”
skeletons of the past.
A juvenile soul
with goals to lasso the moon;
just me as your sketch
under the scorching
heat of June.

i sit outside
myself, as if
someone else
unsure of who i've
become
without hope to thrive
what's the point of
being alive
to fight
to just survive
i just wanna give
way, to something else

For the random persistence
