Every discovery started with absolutely 
     no idea of where to start...
     
     There is not enough time in a lifetime
     to measure success...

Blood Red Moon

Deep devouring passions bleed now from this solar eclipse 
As black blood flows from an evil army of “undead” beings 
Whose fangs hideously and cruelly pierce the veins of their 
Mesmerized and unsuspecting victims who are held at bay.

In such silence burdens prowl...

Fear of Numbers

Fear of numbers is real
They carry adding machines on their backs
And loaded numbered guns
Divide and subtract from families and everyone
With two times the pleasure two times the fun
Double their trouble on the run
You cannot escape the digits on your hands and toes
They are...

Unseen but ubiquitous,
Savage and surreal,
If not curated but contagious,
Annihilative and aerial,

Then lurking, now loose,
You are the silent stone sepulchre,
Tangling, tormenting; transient truce,
An asphyxiating, aggravating and apocalyptic aperture,

You might among countless thriving throng induce fear,
Cause bountiful bouts of darkness and despair,
You might perhaps possess lives of...

On Seeing a Painting by Picasso

By Elton Camp

The museum has a portrait by Picasso on display
When I heard that, I knew had to go by that way
I must admit that, a country hick like me
Has few chances a real work of art to see

The first...

Oh my ignoble mind
why must you be so
rueful-this sorrowful pity
abject-I am not contemptible
brooding-unkind contemplations.

Oh my heinous conscience
dare not
mock me-oh the cruelty
taunt me-cuts so deep
bleed me-I flow dying.

Oh my callous intellect
why must you yet
scorn me-is praise so ugly
castigate me-the pain beguiling
disparage me-oh your brutality!

Oh my derisive...

"Our Sacred Lady of the Divine Perfect Imperfections" - Part 1

Our Sacred Lady of the Divine Perfect Imperfections
is worthy of our fervent introspection
constantly, equatiously
for SHE is “You”
and “You” is SHE
this is no mischievous 
chicanery, 
this is no forced
emergency to gather 
facts that berate, negate
her ardent...

Sitting next to a person whose breath stinks,
is it alcohol or lack of oral hygiene...
never mind what that person thinks:
excessive drinking is not a medicine!


Waiting for the bus that
runs on a Sunday schedule is tormenting misery,
and worse, standing next
to a smoker who has little consideration...

"Gold Bitten"

delinquent minds 
call the creative in
gold bitten terror bites

he thinks he’s a poet
she thinks of other things
not so equivalent

she thinks she’s a brevity
he believes he’s a harlequin
the point mute and hammered in

golden words delivered
shining against the banished burnished
flowing in the unleashed freedom

up from the...

what do i say to No?
when i know what not to do
but i know not what to do.

when Winter dies into Spring
and i must share my space with Strangers
but i don’t know what to say.

has there ever been a place
where all were welcome
and no one...

An apple a day keeps the doctor away;
But hugs are the best for your heart.
They say all is fair in love and in war,
But fair can keep lovers apart.

Normal’s a setting on washing machines,
But love is extraordinaire.
So don’t let the sun set on anger or...

Soft and gentle.
Tenderly kissing
Cheeks and hair.
Vieing with the ardour
Of the noon day sun
To cool the sweated brow.
Playful,teasing,
Impudently tugging.
Breezing along rooftops,
Rattling doors and windows.
Prying into every nook and cranny.
Inquisitive,mischievous 
Restless and free.
Darting through trees
With animated chatter.
Swaggering through cornfields
With cocky gait,
Or just drifting with clouds
Along a lazy...
