Best Dismembering Poems
Soozie the FloozieSoozie was angry with her boyfriend, Bob
Tried dismembering him but botched the job
Disgruntled with all men
She vowed to try again
When she found him in bed with her friend, Rob
Soozie was livid! You should've seen her
She couldn't hide her savage demeaner
This time her plan would work
She...

A Dark TaleI laugh as I think of it now, the dire warnings of hell
Nothing could scare me it didn’t matter, on this teaching I never did dwell.
I wondered why one dark night, again begging for sleep.
No fear of death of dying no foolish promises to keep.
It...

Live Onstage--AmphetamineA relay of moods dribbles on and on
when euphoric tunes kick in:
Jazz, R& B, slow funk, wild pop
igniting primal ecstasy, in the flesh...raw!
Live music leaves me breathless
as thuds of a drum, the intricate fondling
from saxophones blast these veins...
until intoxicated head convulses,
Pulse beat raised at 110,...

Masochist HexI see her in her pure white dress
She is attractive but far from virgin allure
She’s like a paper doll delicate and quick to burn
Quick to drown under the dark cloud’s waters
A witch child among all her sins
She hexes me until I feel disturbed and dismantled
Haunting...

Grand PrioritiesWhat fills your goals, son?
I told you!
Need to get my car rolling [life rolling, love rolling]
yesterday,
if not today...
If I may interrupt
to process mindful resilience
for a bit...
Let me ask again:
Noticing you are concerned about long-winded
and -winding
and -whining
and -worrying despair
regarding personal and commercial transportation issues,
[but not...

Sacred EnergyFascism lives in tension with holy optimism,
as hatred fades in presence of mutual love,
as WinLose evolutionary models
give way to WinWin sacred Energy
stories and songs and dances,
as patriarchal colonization
gives way to matriarchal creolization.
Fascism,
synonymous with Totalitarianism,
as written by Hannah Arendt,
is a growing monocultural tendency toward,
and actual exercise...

My Brother--Nelson Mandela, Umtata, South Africa--Tribute PoemNelson Mandela, crossed my spirited mind today, a visionary legend of peace, love, equality, and unity of all people.
As a prevailer of great affliction, he was like a Greek God fighting for the—"Common man!”
I had to sit and diligently read with excitement, how he unlocked...

My Inner ChildMy heart utters gently: you are seven;
I am too. Yet, the bloom of womanhood
carries us now unto fields where
spiced pleasure and abandonment mingle…
I reminisce our childhood years, when as a girl,
we would look out the bay window
till late evening, awaiting Dad’s arrival.
How cold...

Gypsy HomeboundHeart is where my home finds graceful relationship,
where my soul simply breathes
beneath my memories of becoming,
of being at my best,
sometimes my worst,
but always my most full, complete,
most abundantly contentious
and both loudly out
and quietly in
content.
Home unveils life's liturgy.
This home wherein I was conceived
and...

Asylum StoryOn a rural Pequot River,
with steady New England flow
toward Long Island's warming Sound
Then on and out,
whispering drowned memories
of Atlantis
Slumbering on eastern bank,
surrounded by Native Elder spirit grounds,
ruined medicine's monolithic altars
worship insanely leviathan
brooding bruised monoliths
Stately asylums
crumbling carcasses
sagging with trembling memories
of disability
to remember sacred...

I, Zombie, Part Xii: the RememberingIt’s ten years later
I’ve finally hit paydirt
It’s the motherload
I didn’t strike gold
I struck a deal with myself
To help me grow old
Not act like a child
But first I had to grow up
And not act so wild
I’m stone cold sober
Bipolar under control
Mind, body and soul
Now I enjoy...

How Love of Jesus Cures RacismI
Fix your eyes upon Jesus - for joy
His Love can cure everything doctors can't
evils done to you, loves taken from you-
No medication, pill, sexual addiction/experimentation
will ever cure: Jesus treats the disease, not symptoms
that White Supremacy, mad Muslim Supremacy, evil Eastern Supremacy
we see quickly, as we...

Living Law and Dead BeaconThe idea of a living constitution
has the same forensic indeterminacy
as a committed dream.
I am content to trust this dream to the end
to have it fill my cup of hope all day and night.
I am content to receive its order
to hasten to obey without a pause.
But,...

The Poetic Warlocks HalloweenI've come to take a life,
and I'm searching for a certain Poetic Parasite.
Blood drips from my poetic knife,
and I'm placing him in the soup spotlight!
You know how I slice and dice,
So you can call me Michael Meyers!
Lay on my pentagram and be my sacrifice,
and feel...
