Brother and SisterSusan sits by an open window
Remembering her brother
It was during the sixties when it happened
The exact date was May 8, 1966
They called the Sixties liberating
A time when America accepted change
But it wasn’t like that for everyone
Her brother Stevie
Was two years younger than she was
The guys...

Dirty DeedsThe serpent closed in on Eve at twilight
A nebulous shape in the half light, fangs
Hidden beneath his hood and she, her vision
Blurred was completely beguiled by his lies.
He bought her white roses that she watered
With her tears and chocolate dark...

Trump Will Never MissTrump Will Never Miss
Trump will never miss;

Death do seal with kiss.
Maybe I can round up
the Everly Brothers who
are high in the sky to
start sing some of my

Or maybe say wrong ding dong
Odor sure seems strong.
Adore an odor. Wow. Things

Some Cathy's ClownSome “Cathy’s Clown”
Tell you how peace
In it’s solitude can break
Convulsing to a raucous din
Scatters the fragmentations of silence
A severance
Despite the quiet
And if to spite the stern waves rolling
In the distance

Under blue blazing skies
The rain falls on reminders
To a tilted hat and shoes splashed
Chill...
