Our latest collaboration is marked by
an unexpected brevity that has, I believe,
pleased us both in its pointed execution.

Another Leader Emerges
From sagging huts up in the hills, 
We watched the tourists flash their bills. 
They piled our harvest on their plates, 
While soup and scraps were all we ate. 

The flames lick up from garbage cans, 
Burnt brown like every working man, 
Who shouts or...

As the Sun Emerges
As the sun emerges
Into the sky
I watch in awe
As this world floats by
Wishing to be able
To drift past the eyes
Of the people like me
Looking into the skies...

Premium Member The Butterfly Emerges
From the dark cocoon, the butterfly emerges,
Finally realizing she cannot control her urges,
To witness the beauty of the midnight moon,
The butterfly emerges, from the dark cocoon.

She flew from the shadows, out into the daylight,
The colors on her wings had never shone so bright,
She was meant...

Struggling.....
pouring over the words,
their meanings, the nuances and innuendos...
writing and rewriting...
eraser shnibbles all over the desk
paper rolled up into balls 
strewn everywhere around the trash
the words tumble and fall
sometimes building
sometimes crashing
a medley of rhymes and meter 
cascading over the page...
when suddenly...
a theme emerges
the words fall...

A Shadow Emerges

As light was shining bright
a shadow crossed the scene
A curse in the day and night
bile spilled from the spleen;
Sickness invades an absent mind
doubts attack with no reprieve
Thoughts invade,darkest kind,
Hell acts daily we must believe

Shadow has now taken its form
light's splendor it now deforms!

Butter me up
    Polish my apple
  Reverends praise me
    from the chapel

  I like 'em flunky
    obsequious too
  Fawning all over me
    credit where due

  How long will this...

From Chaos Emerges Grace
And down came the rain
in senseless disarray
     chaotic runnels twisting
in sullen contentious gray

tides high in tempest
pounding pounding
     wrathful turbulence churning
stinging riptide biting

then came the winds
bending trees to splinter backs
      calling forth a...

Bigfoot Emerges April 2
Bigfoot Emerges After the Fall of Humanity

After the bombs stop falling
After the nuclear winter
After the collapse of civilization

All that remains
Are a few scattered bands 
Of humans
Many are reduced 
To starvation 

Bigfoot who are the descendants 
Of the Neanderthals 
Who lived on 
In the mountain wilderness

Came...

She Emerges From the Sea
Straight in pins of hair,
slick from salt and diving down,
learning to talk "Fish"....

A sea change election from 
A farm conscious; direction
Theres now a great party
Grounded in sanity looking in clarity

Great green waste bills a'stinking
Reality astounding could well 
Counter such drowning, which illegal
And immoral brings...
