ghazal
with unrehearsed steps, I pace the aisle in darkness
each bitter breath condemning the child to darkness
the song she sings so innocently during play
reminds me of another beguiled by darkness
we meant to chase the sunset hand in hand once more
our words like hard to swallow vile whispered darkness
sweet grass gently sways, an invitation to dance
although unaccompanied, I smile through darkness
a bridge to memories begins to slowly fade
I peer for awhile into the foggy darkness
free and unbroken, I ran simply for the joy
long before I knew fears waited in wild darkness
But who is like God, declaring let there be light,
in the end will I be put on trial for darkness?

Ghazalled (nefariously homophonic)
Weaving, believing – be living
and breathing; heir in, air out
A tree um, grows – knows, architectural
design, roam an entrancing space …
the final front ear … location, location
a key, pad locket too Brutus? Cutest!
Tee sing, total leisure, pun sir fun duh meant all
Thee sore us, beef ore us, a drag in.
Drag on! (or off) in pink, instinct
smell evade or, feather/father/weather.
butte reign insane falls Maine lee on deplane
witch flies in sea, sons of four, get full nest.
