Rays of warmth touch
waters of northern wood
the brown ground thaws.

Stuck in the Middle
Through halls of unwritten law,
I walk
with uneven steps
behind footprints of change
listening
to her dramas of song
with no manual or
directions to guide.
I walk a slippery line
trying to keep up
guessing
on the moment to give love
and when to lay down the law.
I see
the girl no more
grown heads above mine
eyeing the tree she once climbed
the child left behind.

Eleventh Dual Poem by Charles and I – the tear
slpmartin & I have been writing Dual Poetry together for three years off and on. This is the last of a collection we are publishing online. The rest will be found in our chapbook of Dual Poetry to be released in August 2013 by Twowolvz Press.
Dual Poetry: a prearranged poetry writing challenge between two people to evolve a new poem where each writer must respond to the other writer’s lines (4 -5 ) until both parties agree that the poem is complete.

Lessons from an Online Poet In Transition
care for a reading
I am taking a break or more like changing gears in my world of poetry. I am going to start saving my poetry for books instead of on here. I will add poems here and there but not regularly. I will add them more often to my soundcloud or page on facebook. One way to keep tabs on my works is on my website.
Thank you for your support!
