Ready To Burn

On January 20, 2023 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

Streets Of Tribeca

On February 9, 2021 By Trilby YatesIn Romantic

I walk the streets where you used to live; the city you thrived in The city you fell in love with; the city that set you free while at the same time crippling you - taking away any sense of coherency But, you, you were alright, you were a shining star; you were on fire …

On October 14, 2020October 14, 2020 By Trilby YatesIn Beat Generation / Wise Ass, Romantic

Maybe it was the glimmer of something gentle Coming into view that pushed me to my knees Imagining the touch of a kitten's paw on my cheek No rosary falling to the floor Dust collecting beads hanging from my bedpost ...shifting gears from sensation to visual Or maybe the sighting of a shooting star that …
