Time Stagnates

Posted on June 12, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
I did not know whether
to resent my dreams; almost
concealed behind an excess of
emotion. I continued the length
of the night: time stagnates here.

Summer Night

Posted on June 2, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
How could I sleep
on a summer night
the sky starless and heavy,
A velvet drape drawn over me.

On the Roof

On the roof
of the car with
the sky starless,
I could lie there all night.

Saturday Night

A lonely Saturday night.
No thoughts,
a tranquil house and a
simple disposition
of everything pleasant.

Spring

Posted on April 30, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
Day and night
patiently enduring
the gradual return back to
soft thaw winds,
and warm sunshine.

The snow is quite gone darling,
spring so sweet
I feel that it would cure you.

Field of Ebony

Posted on April 23, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
So far from the city
the stars brilliant on a field of ebony.
Star-specked stillness.
It was grass and
silence of night.

Gray Dream

Posted on April 21, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
The night came.
I sat alone my gray dream gathering.
I see him in the ghost of it - 
my sweet transcendent pain.

New York

Posted on April 12, 2020August 2, 2022 by Erin B.
Late night New York
this city
dotted by bright gas stations and diners,
strung with insomniacs,
waitresses,
and lunatics.

Poetry I’d Written

Posted on April 11, 2020October 24, 2022 by Erin B.
I found him as beautiful as a dream.
My head ran
from morning til night.
Ah, the poetry I'd written.
