Best Hardcover Poems

The sky has dug a hole in the cloud
it's fuc**** triangle's fault  I can't see the pigs
stratified societies 
revitalized on schizophrenic base of
finger pointing minority
staring at fragmented people 
seeing them as dispensed particles 
that parasitize above their respiratory system and
disrupting  implemented cohesion

Was round about the 60's
And I a budding teen
Was influenced and touched
By a program I had seen

Rod Sterling was the narrator
Of a series quite well known
With weekly visits to a world
Named the "Twilight Zone"

And to this day one episode
The best without debate
Has taught me 'bout...

home again, jiggety-jog
oh, how kindly my castle welcomes me!
the pungent loves of earlier meals and my dear one's perfume
Je Reviens and Acqua Di Gioia

like manna for the sensual senses
a weary man dripping from a weary day, but no more
I leave my mundane muddle on the...

When spines of hardcover are marked with ink
upon their pages, old cedar drifts on
through brownish sheaths wrapped in pulp, distinct
with plots and main characters long forgone.
 
And my thoughts journey unto realms untold 
entering regions from another time,
along a nook, books perch on shelves grown...

There is my beloved, sitting under the Sun,
Tenderly is how the wind, embraces her waist,
Bitter because he cannot carry her away.
There is my beloved, sitting under the Sun,
The sea is calling her, swiftly striking the shore,
she will not go with him, just hearing his hearsay.
There...

Within the words laid down and spread before Us.Such passion there was found in reams. A first edition,  pressing, hardcover of what we dare not say.She came at once...

Anglo-Saxon rulers were interned in the Orford castle.
Its polygonal edges secure the town's harbor from dazzle.
Many tallies of feral men caught in fisher webs hassle.
In 1826, Joseph Turner intended a hardcover poetry book.
On his trip to England's East Coast, he was led to the fort...

the sunrise of your sacred love,
paints the hollow desert in my mind,
scattered grains of windblown thoughts,  
frozen remnants from another time,
your liquid brush scrape shards of pain,
from deep within my dark terrain,
and like a scarlet phoenix I rise again,
I climb your thighs,
and stroke your...

This is how I write,
Take pen in my hand
Black Mont Blanc
Open small hardcover
White paged 
Museum sketch book.
Don’t think much
Words come as ink flows.
Outside,
Clear night sky
Full moon light
5:30 AM 
Lunar eclipse
Will be memorable....

Some things and projects are started but never finished.
Some other things were never intended for you to finish.
I knew a lady who told my wife and me about a book she was

She passed on before finishing the...

People are like books.
Some are big, some are small.
Some come in a set, and some
Are standalone. 
Some are new.
Others: used.
Some hardcover, and some soft.
Some, we know we will never read again
Yet we keep them for the memory.
Some we are sad to let go of, 
But...

Inspiration clamors: demanding attention, in need of expression,
possessing my thoughts on this cold winter's dawn.

"Overcast morning!" Wind chimes ring out, a whimsical message,
orchestrates music, played to the rhythm of an odd melody.

Snowflake whirl; dancing about, vivacious children, blanket
with romance, noting the beauty of their frozen...
