Premium Member Headed For the Gristmill
Yesterday’s sweet corn
     now rests among the shucked,
          where norms’ victims lay.

Side-by-side in rusty silos,
     awaiting the gristmill;
          dull...

Premium Member Where Are We Headed
restless sleep, struggle out of bed
walking like a zombie, newspaper read
thought patterns familiar rise, am in their grip
over cravings nurtured thus far, we once again trip

recognising piquant dilemma, distanced from joyfulness
we reverse attention polarity, choosing playfulness
as an experiment to begin with, soon addictive
before we know...

Where are we headed? I know not where
Where are we headed? I know not why
Where are we headed? I know not how
Where are we headed? I know not to whom

Is it better to know or not to know?
Is it better on my own or with...

Headed In a Back-Words Direction (Eternal-Reverb)
(how well I could play)
in a straight forward way;
simplifying it, making it more pure
in a clear sound, turning it up
and bearing down...

there'd be distortion, red-anger, punk-blue,
get it up tough, keep it going,
'cause I didn't know what else to do.

at fifteen I was unreasonably accomplished
with those...

Premium Member Brown Headed Cowbird
brown headed cowbird
female busy laying eggs...
bluebirds reject nest  

Fact:
Brown Headed Cowbird
lays her eggs in other 
birds' nest and lets
the other birds feed her
young...Some birds know
that it is not their egg
and they will abandon
the nest or roll the egg
out..Some birds don't
figure it out and raise

Clear Headed
I didn't realize 
how lazy I had become!
The marijuana smoke
blowing my mind, 
like a loaded gun!!
Slept most the day,
mood swings for a hit, 
kept close friends away.
Today I am clean
nothing stands in my way!!!

Ready to take the world by storm
I am normal now,
clear headed and...

Santa and the Red-Headed Stepchild
Hey fat man
 in the little red suit
All those little girls 
think your so cute
But ive known the truth now
 since i was over three
And caught you kissing Mommy 
under our  christmas tree
I heard whispers and moans 
and little passionate sighs
Ya i saw that...

Autumn Chase - Three-Headed Haiku Contest
Tumble leaves; fall,
golden red and yellow streaks:
a leaf's farthest reach...

Calico clouds, glow:
beauty's limit impeached,
shift and shade as seas...

Sun seasons life's taste,
autumn, encirc'ling in space:
winter's promise; chased......

Hard Headed
A once healthy old man 
all alone in the sand. 
I reflect upon my past
The good and the bad. 
All that I've had.
Why time went by so fast.

With a cough and a weeze
I rise up to my knees.
Then I roll a cigarette.
A hand through my...

Premium Member New Cracks in Old Stone
New cracks in old stone
Just beginning to show,
Reveals things never shown
Things only one could know 

Just beginning to show
A solid surface scrambles,
Things only one could know
Shedding into shambles

A solid surface scrambles
Every chisel brings a change,
Shedding into shambles
In time, it must arrange

Every chisel brings a change
Upon...
