Miscellanea: Poem: Psych Ward
http://pcfergmiscellanea.blogspot.com/2007/10/psych-ward.html
For the other stuff. Sunday, October 7, 2007. Digital Painting by Jeff Spencer. In childbirth 20 years ago. My husband sat beside me. Tried to help me slow my breathing. Swim to the top". Now my baby's in the water. Deep beneath the murky surface. With his pink flesh flashing fish-like. As we rim the bank. To the fish boy who is man now. Holding out ridiculous nets. Posted by P.C. Fergusson at 2:01 PM. This poem made me cry. Subscribe to Post Comments [ Atom. Links to this post:. Author Page on Amazon.

Miscellanea: Poem: Sestina
http://pcfergmiscellanea.blogspot.com/2007/10/sestina.html
For the other stuff. Sunday, October 21, 2007. Digital Painting by Jeff Spencer. Woman washing her hair. Stands alone in the bathroom. Head inclined over sink. Legs gush up from the floor. Glass reflects the fine lines. Around her pulpy mouth. Woman presses her mouth. Against ends of her hair. Eyes engraved with deep lines. See her shape in the bathroom. Bare feet touch cold tile floor. Toes by porcelain sink. Her thoughts spiral then sink. Back into her closed mouth. She melts into the floor. I am a wri...

Thirsty Work: Chapter 1 ~ Six Men
http://pcfergthirstywork.blogspot.com/2011/06/chapter-1six-men.html
Two sisters look for redemption in alcohol. Thursday, June 16, 2011. Chapter 1 Six Men. My sisters gave me Cathy at our mother's funeral, handed her over like a blouse they were returning because the material was scratchy and the sleeves didn't fit. Their suggestion that I take her out of Stockton, introduce her to the world, somehow soften her texture and lengthen her reach, was followed by the first moment in the day when I wasn't tasting ashes and rust. Branch Manager of Haywood Bank and Trust? Johnny...

Miscellanea: Poem: Prayer Song
http://pcfergmiscellanea.blogspot.com/2007/10/prayer-song.html
For the other stuff. Sunday, October 28, 2007. Digital Painting by Jeff Spencer. To the perfect answer. I feel it float. Just beyond my reach. I long to know. What it has to teach. Whispering, to me. In a secret language. Words, that I, can't hear. Beckoning, to me. With a velvet finger. I long to believe. That deliverance is near. I want to know. Why I feel like weeping. Why my death calls. And draws me to bed. I want to feel. Like the green grass reaching. Just seeking to live. All right, reality check!

Miscellanea: Poem: Credo
http://pcfergmiscellanea.blogspot.com/2007/10/credo.html
For the other stuff. Sunday, October 14, 2007. Digital Painting by Jeff Spencer. I believe I am on a spiritual path. It winds like a golden ribbon over rich, brown hills. I believe help is available to me, if I seek it. My teacher stands near the path, robes fluttering in the wind. I believe that simply by finding this path,. I have made considerable progress. I believe that I will reach the end before I die. I believe that we are all connected. That we each have a spark of God within us. Themes that int...
