Home

like a wheeze announcing the passage of air in and out of the lungs
1000 plaintive requests
inadvertent verdant
once doubled as the sea floor
sometimes silent sentinels
what hides behind
a face that launched a thousand ships
a reliquary of sorts
one letter short of an alphabet
crutch
function follows form
through the rabbit hole
escape route
light penetrates a space wherein pleasures are contained
architectural anomaly
no commentary could possibly surpass the incessant hum of the motor
gauntlet
it's not the drop that kills you
tear jerker
the natural order of things
Houdini had brothers
naming it only gives it more power
on a sun drenched slab
the sound of a million pins dropping simultaneously
acclimation point
a fond embrace
precipitous
apropos of everything
threshold
hair shirt
on-and-off romance
what depths the human heart
cutting edge
populuxe
so little from so much so much from so little
initiates welcome
medieval
one for every voice
anchor
first out the door
double barrelled
water burden
a well coordinated effort
pillars of progress
not even close
false starts and half-hearted attempts
digged about
two ways to Sunday
upended
off track
overreaching
House of Mystery
on track
divining rod
holding pattern
safe harbor
recipe for disaster
without trepidation
beyond reproach
paths diverge
humblest servant
dark shadows green acres
Christmas in July
farthest shore
final resting place
and then there were four
room at the top
survived by sunshine and a sense of longing
room with a view
cocksure and timorous
rapt in your geometry
dust borne heights
dialed in
a difference made countless times over
an era of design preoccupied with the moon
infinite array
often passed seldom opened
murmured voices heard in shadow
strange fraternity
hung out to dry
suspended animation
liminally yours
golden years
in memoriam
open borders
sight unseen
brinkmanship
clean lines dirty angles
lowest common denominator
fuzzy details
traversing paradise
manufactured dissent
value in the land
from soil to sill
circumstantial ignominy
stems the tide
reclamation act
details dreaming
indiscrimate coverage
the possibility of an accord met with muted silence
sweet spot
a new day begins behind closed doors
curtain
this side of Lilliput
push button Pleiades
the stage set for well-wishing
owned by our architecture
portal
dreams laid to rest
straddles the line
mooring
Sunday is aware of itself
the mechanics of a sigh
revolutionary
forged solid
everyone remembers their first
hollow
sneaks up on you
dogged determination
hung up
as if the day itself issued forth
couched in relative terms
hi and lo
cove fort
aerial
bowed down
unto the breach
suburban bucolic
push and pull
division of labor
terminal island
before the fall
decked out
genius move
strange conflation
sunrise over empty metal echoes
hardly knew ye
fit to be tied
menagerie
paler shade of yesterday
crowning glory
parry at your folly
postwar pastel
foreign corners
gilded with a gray patina
laid at the root
celestial ceiling
smell of cedar
vanity's altar
flared
never took
window on introspection
pressure point
command center
the silent world
beneath a glass ceiling
a nod at Knossos
eclipsed by anonymity
drop off
broken off at the hilt
a room beside itself
disabled satellite
measure of fulfillment
bathed in shadow pervaded by light
within reach beyond grasp
a gulf between us
Alphaville
the last reprieve of a storied room
shining intuition
some scars we're fond of
nourished in the crook
container fetish
set aside
branded
cage
wrought on the cusp
absent recess
centrifuge
man and beast
fit for a plinth
steeped in voids
grip
bright back
gallows
incomparable comforts
way station
vanilla candle
alone left to stoke the fire
with yesterday's garbage
white on white
sets off the room
where grows naught but shards and slivers
summer striving at the edge
placeholders
larder
cruel irony
space enfolded
uncompromising
to lengths by blows
mouths that feed
purpose filled
as thin a grip is tin/a grip is tin as thin/is tin as thin a grip
quenched on an ocean
vulnerable
slip sheet
hang tail
occluded front
landmarks
pluck and twang
air ablaze
holds its own
cast
augmentation
sure-footed
rich inheritance
ne'er an angel tread
pail and shovel
disengaged
hemmed in
once a fixture
none the worse for wear
constant rotation
bottomless
ignition
gains purchase
transplant
a light on upstairs
robes of distinction
approach and descent
millers we all
hitch
hermetic
slats stacked back
a scale sufficient
the light thrown back on itself
carousel
orb of the universe
festooned betimes
sugar coated
outside in
completes the set
test of intellect
north quarter
opposite shore
scintillant
stolid said
an accumulation of better days past
combinations
conductible
cyclical
catch all
standing room only
bidden by the unknown
here there and back again
heartstring
the elegant lady
smitten by the sound of your retreat
gentle persuasion
never opened again
catacombs
hatch sprung
moat
pulled into existence
marriage of convenience
twisted sunshine
another veneer
besmirched
bed of soil
well of inspiration
the heart ajar
graven reminder
empties
the company we keep
payment in kind
saddle
wounded
on any Sunday
plumage
a wide berth and a deep breath
gouge
against the day
mother of invention
torpedo flats
that sinking feeling
derelict
line of defense
oasis
just below the surface
equivalency
built to suit
jettisoned
contingency
kept at bay
when waves lapped at feet
flipside
trimming
disembodied
strange revelation
trigger
backdrop
partitions
at the edge of an expanse
mainsheet
with foils thus inclined
homecoming
occasional remembrance
landslide
loom
bred on blissful glimpses
boneyard
many have wept for more but few for less
board and pour
cast with doubt and vacillation
backlit
non-exclusive
thrush
a toehold yields a foot
Germanus Japonica
twin falls
beneath a coat a constellation
one by land
pushed along lines
airstrip
clean wake
a show of strength betrayed by frailty
guided by lasers
bulrush
fixed orbit
retread
news from the front
incubator
superfluous
wrong key
high-piled and wood-paneled
turnstyle
rehabilitated
logic lost
pyre
residual memory
by rule of thumb
shorn
larger than life
top heavy
aural eclipse
degrees of tolerance
conglomerate
light astride
collar turned out
pitch and wedge
storybook ending
die hard
overshadowed
creosote on basalt field
incorporeal
brooking the familiar
at the edge of expectation
dispelling
rich interior life
façade lifted
unfettered
gauze on the morning
heat sink
cast in the glow
number of the beast
burdens the lesser for bearing
space contained still
