May

You're supercalifuckingfragilis
ticexpialidociously incred
ible, sweet Sugarloaf, and when we kiss
My life's a bed of fragrant roses red.
You're supercalifragilisticex
pialidociously afuckingMay
zIng all the time, like when we're having ***
And when we're not.  I love you every day.
I love you more than say can ever I,—
More than an apple's not an orange, more
Than any sun has ever lit a sky,
And more than Cannot-get-enough wants smore.
     Lunatick love is all my love for you;
     Fairer than springtime's freshest flow'rs art thou.

My first, my last

I met you on the edge where light begins,
crowning gold op’ning the eyes of my soul.
In me you touched a vast, unfolding plan
to love brightly once, and once be made whole.

Loves long extinguished, ghosts of the jet sky:
waking stars distant embers of last night
will arc toward shadow and what has begun:
our joy the blaze of summer at its height,

I felt it then — the dimming of the flame,
a steel ice wind cutting flesh off the bone
a final green flash, a trick of the light
you dove through the waves and I was alone.

You were my day. In a bright arc we passed:
through hope, through joy, through grief. My first, my last.

May 2025, a sonnet

Tucker Dobson 3d

I would have washed it if not for the rain.

I was five hours through my trip of eight
When I saw through bug guts light tearing cloud
I was thinking about clips sent my way
Of her play with the offspring of her own

Laughing without regard for somber weight
Which hung on us like a funeral shroud
Her spirit was ready were it the day
She was prepared if then she would have flown

But how it closed with a coffin lid’s freight
What tears under such sorrow we allowed
In front of his daughter dying he lay
Soon enough I’d have his pictures alone

In the light I saw insects smashed to death
“Three hours left” I said under my breath

An attempt at a chiastic sonnet. My grandfather died in late 2011, and my grandmother passed a little over ten years later. I thought about these things on a drive home from college.

Butterfly Wings

Quantum physics tells us- a butterfly
flapping wings in Beijing today just might
birth a hurricane in San Juan next July.
Imagine, when I quiver at your sight,
I send lighting flashes over Oahu
and watch lithe young surfers bolt for cover.
I’ve never been to Hawaii, but I do
want to take you to Venice, discover
gilded churches and Lido sands, where ships
bearing spices from Byzantium once sailed.
At night we can stroll past gondola slips,
halos from street lamps in misted air, veiled.
We’d marvel, when I reach for your hand, at
the ripple of joy that lights up Manhattan.

The Ledger of the Heart

Within a book, she keeps each hurtful deed,
A catalog of wrongs beneath each name.
Her wounded heart, a garden choked by weeds,
And every page ignites an inner flame.

She reads their sins in ink that does not fade,
A testament to pain she cannot shake.
The trust she gave, betrayed and left unpaid,
Becomes a chain of bitterness to take.

She fears the world, where lies and shadows play,
Believing none are true, that all deceive.

Her heavy book has left her heart in gray,
A life too bound by hurt to yet believe.

If she could set the pages all afire,
Might love, not anger, rise from such a pyre?

Midget of madness Apr 27

Season of hate

Should I compare you to a spring morning
You are as harsh as the rains cold venom
Spring allows growth and warmth you cause scorning
Spring leaves when asked you outstay your welcome

Would I compare you to autumn’s sunrise
Autumn always takes its end peacefully
Somehow you take the end as a surprise
Fall lets the past fall you end forcefully

Could I compare you to summers sunset
Summer should always brings joy and freedom
But with you summer comes with us upset
So why have I caged myself to boredom

So why do I keep comparing your fate
For you are only the season of hate

An Amateur Sonnet to My Own Foolishness

Some of them say we were split at the start
Off I go stumbling, a half-cocked Cortes
After Venus who has part of my heart
"This gold is for God," my grinning mouth says

Some of these brothers were split right in two
By saw on the rawest end of the deal
Standing right next to that heavenbound crew
Of me does this old world quite worthy feel

Some of my feelings are split as of now
I want to stand, ask, and be justified
But as indignation pulses my brow
Holy teeth rake and scrape out the inside

Perhaps I'm just grinding salt into flesh
Trying by brute force to make the two mesh

Gaia's Soothing Haven Apr 23

Flesh Recasting Our Fate’s-Quadrant

No sundial’s gnomon could cut this air before—
the dial long-slept, moonlight glows, lines our palms,
its grip of frost, its calculus we tore,
until our spines aligned, unguarded—warm.

The gnomon’s scorn now bends to our skin’s dawn—
its frost-etched law undone by breath’s slow rise.
Our shadows fuse as Brahms unwinds the calm,
rewriting fate in tongues that flesh denies.

The gnomon’s edge, once steeped in solar lies,
now bends to taste the salt along our throats,
its calculus of light a husk, takes flight—
a butterfly that drinks what dawns promote.

Let ruins chant the creed of numbered skies—
our pulse, a clock that dares to harmonize.

The power of love to change fate.

Gaia's Soothing Haven Apr 19

Unstringing the Constellations’ Libretto

You unscrew the jar; Orion’s climactic sigh spills—
A cello’s low A hums—our triad, C and E—the night skies.
Your thumb caresses pulse down my throat, andante, it drills
through myth—not his hunt, but the damp heat between our thighs.

We’ve plucked Lyra’s rusted chords, restrung her spine
to thrum with your breath, not some dead muse’s cords.
Stars crack like old records; we skip, we refine—
our bed, a cradle for light, shed our sheer white peignoirs.

You fear the jars dim? Let me mouth the black core
of Cassiopeia—choke her brittle groan,
then laugh as you arch—my crescendo, your score—
each note a plum’s burst where her language had flown.

Your teeth score my shoulder. The dark soars, unconfined—
We swallow the arias. Let the void choke on mine.
