I'VE BEEN AWAY
She applied her makeup much like a
spackler would make full the cracks in a
wall.
An attempt to hide the scars left
visible from a painful existence.
Agonizing, empty-eyed
grimaces
arrive on an east wind.
An outstretched arm, like a breaking
branch, an… Read full post »

Married to the Sea Salt and the Sand

The captain's wife
awaits
Still no sighting of the
bow
A widow's watch she
stakes?
As the harbor's waters
howl
Too long has she stood
fast,
Three winters come and
gone.
Her faith has long gone
past… Read full post »

I Wonder How Honest A Blog Rating Is...
I recently read a comment about blogs,
questioning how true the ratings and comments are. It brought to
mind the thoughts I had when I first started posting on OS. I
believed that the comments were exaggerated and ratings were
handed out like candy on Halloween.

MY AMPUTATION
AMPUTATION
My anger is gangrenous
black,
glinting fevered
pain
from a happiness
that had come and is now gone
again.

If my will could bring my
star,
her smile could save my
world.
So bright… Read full post »

"THAT CRACKS MY ASS"
We have an expression here at the
Kiernan household when something is particularly troubling or
inappropriate. Say the waitress serving up our food order has big
ole juicy coughing fit, spraying me and my fellow diners with germs
you can actually see. When relating the… Read full post »

A LEADEN LEGACY
I'm writing here now, because it is
the thing that I do. It has been since I
could hold a crayon in my fat fist, and find that lines and circles
could evoke from others, smiles and laughter and
more.

My Baby's Gone
My daughter has left me.
Gone, like an evolving star
in the night sky. Her absence leaves
a black hole, a void where there once were
warm embraces and knowing
smiles.
She has found another family, been born
of a different mother,… Read full post »

OC-MY IDENTITY AWAY FROM OS; AT OS??
Hiding behind avatar #1, 2, or

I divulge something

I look much the same as the man down

And this teacher of Arts will be

Where is the G-D Remote?
My husband was storming around the
living room, tossing pillows from couch to chair, swearing at the
cats for their absolute lack of interest in his apparent life
altering dilemma. Finally they were dispersed, tails fat with
indignation and tufts of fur flying in the trail of their
retr… Read full post »

LITTLE KATE's OPEN CALL -VISITED OF AN ANGEL

My angel is with me
Just silence, and 4 a.m., he sits
comforting me.
I miss him at the oddest
times;
When a wet snow falls and snowballs are
for the tossing,
And I can see him all red cheeked
and

IRON MAN POETRY-belated open call-1st kiss
There's been other kisses, for
sure,
His was not the first.
But what was the
difference?
The others had left me empty, feeling
more like a chew toy, with no comparison to his.
Ohh, the first time my love kissed me,
just touching my lips, I felt gentle… Read full post »

THE JUNKIE'S PRAYER
The dope embalmed me,
building
All those years between my self and my
sanity.
Much like the mortar sealed the beating
heart away in the wall.
There is no escape and reprieve is
carried in by lepers who offer up forgiveness with crackers and
cheese,… Read full post »

WHEN SANITY LETS GO
On Tuesday, October 19th,
the first waves of uncertainty had begun to splash aboard the
synapses that drifted aimlessly in the gray matter of my brain. I
was shaky as banshees screamed from the unknown, and I could smell
the sulphur of the electrical burn.

WHO SAID IT WAS A HALLUCINATION?
I know what I saw, and it was as real
as the pain that consumed me!
I asked for it,
really.
Calling out in the
night,
'' don't forsake me!"
And so you stayed, bringing comfort,
singing amens, alleluiahs, and Sweet Jesus, my
Lord,… Read full post »
