Song of the SojournerSong of the Sojourner
From far, far, away,
In this land so foreign,
Memories of you haunt me.
I pine away in craving,
For the feel of your breath,
Cool, soft and saline,
Fanning my face, gently.
Memories of our first embrace,
As I crawled on my belly,
Under chairs, tables and beds,
Crying at every...

Guns and Roses
First person shooter,
on a hate tour of duty,
swinging a bullet sling blade
Buying a death row ticket,
worth fifteen minutes of fame
First person murder shooter;
womb-to-the-cradle-to-the-grave robber,
using your Automatic Revolver
to solve your anti-social mental problems
Sharpen that sling blade
on a coroner grindstone wheel
Gather the scythe-shredded corpses
from the harvest...

is also a great way to make some money,
to establish a new commercial market
selling redemption from fear and ultimate failure.
I find Jesus of Nazareth's gospel message richly nutritious
compelling and resonant
when I have full co-empathic faith
that he taught a Way for all individual...

Unbelievable ...You used to scare me with your torrid schemes.
My mind was a parcel for your unravelling.
There was a time you'd play with its shadows,
and then you said you never took sides...
I believed you then.
Now, I know I was wrong.
You're not to be believed, but sung!
And...

What WasDried up grass shimmer in the sun
Like fossilized corpses with nowhere to run
The barren land stretches till my eyes can see
Eyes filled with visions of what is and what could be
I tumble down paths strewn with skeletons of yesterday
Where my life was bright like a...

Nobel Lionized MatriarchyFreely forming metrical mainstays

the fairer and gentler sex,
thus the following turns of phrase
to bestow acknowledgement
regarding wonderful wise ways
of collective she who assays
to create safe/secure home/ hearth
as bedrock and fount of ample
maternal duties tiredly sashays
with keeping house receiving praise
the second Sunday each May,...

PygmalionAs an aperitif to understand the essence of thought
Blood of a young tortoise touched my lips
Seldom as it is - pure ichor – I whisper’d in a trot
Let me get drunk on it while deifying the lunar eclipse
That is what I deserve, that is what...

Revolutionary GreenpeaceMost of life plays out somewhere
somehow
sometime
in-between resplendent deification of MotherEarth
and rabid defiance of EarthMother
wisdom
Is a peculiarly Republican challenge,
confusing unchanging

Tradition
As if such Tradition were against

unitarian economic political flow
of Earth-conserving sacred grace
slow-growing

In this confusion,

Bard Pablo Birthday's SongWhat, in your own mind, you do think you lack,
Within thy sensational loneliness--
Truly energize luck and got your back,
To promote thy risk in times, coziness.
Then each and every of your lovely fear,
Creates the globe with an enormous home.
Surely, of a...

Darkening SunDeifying themselves,
the scientists disprove
with their tools
the existence of God
To sit on a throne
artificially made
the Creator to them
falsely shod
They loudly decry
as their courtiers boast
about how powerful
their laws have...
