Best Collaged Poems

He sang sweet songs, sweet needle point lullabies
His eyes were crystalized, their awestruck blackness ate me whole
I stayed mesmerized by his carelessness and smooth complexion
He spit ease and promised comfort
His perversions helped to define me
He fed off the helpless story my eyes told
Like a rat...

WHITE SHADOW
-------------------
Cornered in opalescence
No walls to be found
The abyss its residence
The address unknown

Its countenance clear
As frozen solid stone
Collaged in aqueous blue
Painted misty gray

Its irridescence seen
But presence unseen
Epitomizes the trace
Of a fallible illusion
Portray as fumes of
Charcoal colored flames

Steams of vaporous smoke
Swim the swarms of air
Bounding deep...

Please strike
the piñata
i have made for you
out of the  stripes of paper
and the glue,

In  the midnight hour
i have labored long
on this plump pig
of collaged letters.
with  corrugated metaphors
Sightless Find the weakest point.

let that guide 
your hand
the transparent rose
cellophane
wrapped candy
shall flow
in libation of sound

TEMPTATION'S TOUCH
-----------------------------
His palm soothes the ridges
Furrowed in her starlight skin
Her masseur, he replenishes
Each and every aching extremity
The chiming bells of his strokes
Ring again and again
Summoning her to his lair
Collaged in deep affinity
Her rock solid attraction
Draws her savory soul
Into a lustrous world
She's never seen nor known
A...

In the purple smoky collaged sky 

The birds swam home 

on flaky water colours,

carrying his rainy perfume.

I prayed for this one night

He would evenly spray my garden,

Without the rumbling accompaniment

Of his hurly burly friend flashing

nightmarish psychedelic lights, but let

Little Sue dream with her angels in...

Behold, across, the window scene, 
     The falling sky, a low, aging gray; 
The pregnant clouds appear to burst, 
     Heavy with the rains of May.

Looking out the window 
     At the prelude...

More precious than gold
Such beauty and grace
My sweet Desi Lou
I shall forever embrace

Her beautiful smile
Her charisma and wit
When collaged all together
Will send your heart a miss

Full of such Great Spirit and a love for life
Throughout all of her adolescent years
My Sweet Desi Lou is growing...

Down a runway skybound
to cross a continent, 
see from a window
a city fall away
with bright beads 
strung along a coast,
then turning inland, 
clumped townships 
shrinking to solitary lights
sunk far apart
into hours
of featureless dark. 

Disconnected
from the earth,
let the mind paint
the blank distances 
and wander landscapes 
of...

Like a dark water wave,
a flock of geese splashed
across the collaged, Virginia sky.

Teeming tall trees
stood rooted in juxtaposition.
Some stood poised
with outstretched naked arms;
while others stood with arms clothed
in beautiful blossoms—
Sneezing yellow mist chilling winds.

Awaiting spring’s emancipation,
confused allergies seem to hibernate....
