Some Things Are Better Unplanned

all in the astrological
a probable obstacle
opposing a closing
on misquoting 
avoiding acknowledging
a declaration
of ever changing information
staging the hesitation
as engaging the conversation

    shorted 
    and circular
                              retort like
                               interpreter
port side 
                                                   murderers
singing
                 like mother natures nurturer

a cursive cure
portrayed other than
self serve
okay the pelt fur
was filayed from a cave dweller 
shadows on the wall
ancient paintings
saints restrained as decaying
a sacred hazing
surface alterations
a presence of learning
and the egos altercation
the peasants are burning


blue sky on the eve

a single tree a hair in the expanse

red cliffs and black sands

lightning struck three times

roosters and left hands

bones and amethyst

holes to hide a fist

i told the psychiatrist

im older than osiris is


navigate in a dreamstate
ive been told im a cheap skate
thank goodness for cheesecake
i used to eat cheese steak

satisfaction in all forms
something they forewarn
feeding the forlorn
or heating a cold dorm

romance by the crab shack
the silence of abstract
wander and backtrack
snake in a knapsack
