the memory hisses and pops
with the cloudy connection
of analog synapses
confused with plaque
where the data just
stirs in place
hoping to be read
while the mind’s screen
conspires to elude
the sharp focus
of some just yesterday
when the the memory
was last played

tiny prisoners
learning how to #elude
the dragons
like genies
they magically disappeared
flames beneath the fire
neighbors would say,
what good little soldiers
you've trained them well
he smirked, knowing
one flew to heaven
the others
stayed in #hell

#Elm at my old home -
one of my favorites
each autumn.
It was cut down
just before I left for good,
its stump jagged
and wearing many rings.

In the middle of the #elm forest there is a clearing, with a banner on a pole, a scarlet red dragon with golden trim. And a yin/yang symbol on a small flag below. Oh my, that wasn’t an #ogre back there, it was a trollock! This isn’t another reality, it’s the third age!

…and the adventure begun, as soon as the #street was out of view… the world changed as a cloud of dust surrounded him, and he was transported to the other realm. There was #ice on the lake, and #ogre tracks on the path. Another swig of #elixir — for good measure.

The stereotyped #sapphire
Known for its deep blue color
But it comes in many colors
Its depth rarely appreciated
Once our minds are fixed
Our glasses don’t
See in multi colors
The color has only one truth
Our perceptions
Our prejudices
Rarely changed
Stuck in our reality

I think of my old
wedding album,
a photo of #2,
black and white
thumbs in his
#cummerbund,
his freckled young
face so naive-
I burned
the wedding
album
well before our
marriage ended,
you were mad,
I laughed,
and said affairs
don’t make great
Memories.

My life wrapped in a #cummerbund
On the outside
Neat and tidy
On the inside
A storm brewing
With rain predictions
It’s part of survival
Don’t let anyone see
What lurks below
The naked truth
Being okay is
A constant battle

The evening went well
Smoked grape and kingfish crude with spice
beluga caviar
a dessert of rich Frrrozen Haute Chocolate Ice
cigars and brandy
my #cummerbund began to tell, wait no, it began to swell
i should have stayed in for a binge of the walking dead and snacks instead
