Best Fictions Poems

Headline news proclaims disasters
Man made climate change the fear
But fewer die now, caused by weather
Death rates falling year by year
There are data that are false
There are data that are true
There are data that have little 
Effect on me and you

All white people deeply racist
Causing darker...

The preposterous fictions many
           profess to be unvarnished truth

cause those long dead to walk among us
  through the spectral midnights in our...

The lives of others I can not but steal.
Their thoughts, their dreams, their loves, are all in books inscribed,
Ripe for the taking.  Their minds fit mine like new skins.
It does not hurt them:  book folk are not real,
And I need their worlds, for...

Sashayed dauntlessly in a setting of acquaintance
Laugh, drink, and dance… Forget the stance

I use make-believe
overwriting memory
to bring me some peace

The fiction I’ve weaved
you’re at the store - you wouldn’t leave
is a fool’s relief

my strange trick or treat
