Best Collect Poems

Twice a month on our tiny little Isle
A group of heroes go that extra mile
Wearing protective clothing they clean the beach
Removing vast amounts of rubbish within their reach
Plastic bottles, fast food containers and tins
Items tossed away so thoughtlessly – it’s a sin
So many marine animals...

Miles far from,
The ticketing toll,
Unmentioned to some,
Lingering soul,
Pushing on,
The roads are made,
The breaking dawn,
Streaks vaguely fade,
Posted in place,
Thriving success,
Becoming a face,
Cleaning up the mess.
People rise,
Creatures scatter,
Tongues of cries,
Memories of laughter,
Dismantled letter,
Ripple effect,
Faults setter,
The headers collect....

Seasons pass as tendencies fall
Tripping over laws that order societal resolve
A laughing matter not for the victims assailants never caught
Consuming thoughts processed opposite happy holidays

Timely reminders of days with doubt of faith
Following what remnants of personality are left
In remembrance to the passing of a seasons...

Harold and his cousin belligerent bossy big idea Bob
Formed an insect removal company, Spiders no Prob
They had no issues until a call really late this afternoon.
Harold was walking toward it when something blocked out the moon.

At first he thought it was a statue and was...

The singularity of my voice, 
Wailing out in this dark, wild, and philistine-infested wilderness
Today; Its uniqueness alone amongst several million babbling, 
Balbutient tongues, and inked pens and platitude-riddled pages on blinking 
Computer monitory screens,
The intelligible and the inane, 
The incomprehensible and the uncomprehending:
The pretenders to literature's throne and the 
Imposters...

i  collect 
scraps of memories of you
sure some of those are so vivid
i can see them when I'm walking
walking to the unknown
opening up with every daylong conversation 

whatever will we do 
when we go back to work 
condense the discovery into
tiny little bright yellow Post-Its
i'll stick all of yours...

Collective consciousness works well when you need
to get together making your fondest dreams come
true within your heart, you have stored away so many
places you have been wanting to see, the trees, flowers
birds to make you fly with excitement.

Abide in my admiration collected by the unknown
forces...

I collect 
Something when we meet,
Knowing that these memories 
Will fade
As so many already have.

Sometimes, 
Fragile
Delicate.
Others,
Stories told
And retold.

But always questions....

collections show facets to me
assorted pieces hail history
recollections kept deep inside
where irrational follies hide

motley montages, memories
my collections, things that please
miscellaneous, sorts of stuff
put on shelves to gather dust

various items mingle mixed up
me, I drink from a colorful cup
assortments, sterling junk
filling my titanic trunk

sundry items I...

the eternal board is flashing
white letters on dark screen
destinations departures arrivals
scheduled greens
expected reds
delayed blues
frisking ffor the security of the
masses
collect your valuables he said
we forget though
life is the most valuable
we forget to collect...

What is Santa doing? The new elf asked the older ones, wonderingly.
He is collecting stars for Christmas Eve of course, they said knowingly.
What will that do? The new elf asked. His elders chuckled. You’ll see.
On Christmas eve the Elves brought out the container of stars...

My mother is a hoarder, the young woman said.
The other woman and I were begging for details.
What does she hoard?
She collects all kinds of stuff – name a collection She has it.
Fingernails?
No.
Eyelashes? No
Squirrel tails?
By now she is looking at me with horror in her face.
I...

The equivalent of a cosmic flat tire, the star collector overheated again.
Should've topped off the subzero heat transmogger back at Stuckey's.
Yep we have 'em too.., who doesn't need a Pecan Log Roll, now and then.
Two Roadway startruckers snapped up the last Elmer's paste pies., the...

Rocks, sand, plants and feathers,
Around the world they come together
All in one place for me to treasure....
