#poetry And it starts colors of cattails and Old Sol. Reflecting the Colorado Aspens. The push of stillness walks with me today. I smell mother's lemon squares. and junniper. Why cant my buried Mother come and visit? Just one day Just one day. and we would dance as children do. as only Mothers and Daughters understand the birth of a live human being. and the cruelty of a grave. While we stand over it.

Too sharp, you move left smack into me right. she's sweet, strong and shovels snow. / I pace, you crank gears. I no longer listen to crickets. gone our purple pillows infested with chintzy cholora. / We used to evict spiders. / / / Copyright 2018 Kustem Creations LLC Barbara Mertus / #worldswithinpoetry #poetry #ZbohomAPis #amwriting www.bmertus.com #goldenhandcuffs #slovakia #memoir #shortstories #worldswithinwisdom #author #authorsofinstagram #poetsofinstagram #poetry #memoir https://www.instagram.com/p/BoO6BxJlBhb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fvk0mpk2vmdl

Poem- If Life Was This Easy I would eat red salmon tacos every moment. I would kiss my husband fervently and no complaints about cooking when I want to be creative and burning mustard and losing my cell phone and outlaw dust and dirty sinks and I would find a way to capture eternity and still breathe, feel my heartbeat inside a glass of white Bordeaux and never suffer another migraine. I would wipe out Death, That Criminal, with a thick childish pencil cancel all mortgage debt slip on ruby red slippers smell the courage of my Slovak elders inside boiling cabbage and dance forever with Katrina.

A View from Empty Eyes -A Poem \ \ She has empty eyes. A junk mail mask covers her face, leaving paper trails of no color. The pink ribbons of guilt she wrapped me in, are grave reminders of her audicity and penchant for bias. If she ever tried to 'Micky Finn' me again, Would I run? \ \ \ Copyright 2017 Kustem Creations Barbara Mertus Munyon \ #worldswithinpoetry #wordswithinwords #poetry #poetsofinstagram #memoir #highcountryvending #slovakia #immigrant #zbohomapis #amwriting #shortstories #nanowrimo2017

Cold Shock - #Poetry Frozen in July I'm a neck away from fear of passion, patience, procrastination, promise, and purgatory. Don't quit your day job to write jungle words. Quagmires, filled with Angels, arrive under the guise of long term lonliness. Just me and my pen and pencil and spiral notenook. We cook clouds of nonsense wrapping letters into sentences. The ultimate sacrifice? My taste for sex blew into that last chapter while I capitulated to the 'Muse'. \ \ Copyright 2017 Kustem Creations LLC Barbara Mertus Munyon. \ \ \ #poetry #memoir #ShortStories #ZbohomAPis #amwriting #Author #CosmicConsciousness #ampublishing #HighCountryVending #GoldenHandcuffs #skier #KeystoneColorado
