Growing Up In A Christian Household 

My dad was such a FRAMER then that I oft just felt like a FARMER,  
No alternative routes accepted, no reasons other, 
Only their special Christian gospel that did mother, 
Slippy slimy slowness, a slave’s sleeve slipped in...

Easy to do it,
while you do other things here,
a washing machine.

It’s so convenient;
that nothing left is undone
new technology.

How life gets easier,
with aids from other scopes
that science provides.

It seems cooking
at this time is an attraction
especially for someone who
starves and needs something to eat.

Alone in the kitchen

Mother carved a pumpkin head

Boy, how it filled me with dread.

Laughing, "it looks so real I said,

It could be taken from the dead."

I thought she'd smile, but instead

I saw her flush, her face went red.

I asked "where is father, still in bed ?"

It was then...

I want to rearrange rooms with you,
Sipping steeped teas and coffee beans. 
Pondering an existential anamnesis;
"The aloe should go here."

I want to want little victories,
Shape sovereign lands from the exigent patriarchy of our uncordial entente.
Reap what worlds within worlds are ours from the wars of...

Over there in the rural countryside where I'm  at currently....
Gravel road, water and electrical woes are challenges daily....

Hardly any economic activities that bring in cash money..
Barring the staff in the usual government machinery...
And those in some private enterprises and companies...

The village folks are really...

Our own hagrid (in the corporeal essence of marital relatives) heaves livid rage
like real life harry potter dementors dead set on wreaking havoc
   mainly from the zison matriarch in a mental and physical decrepit stage
attributable in part to her four score plus years...

As i watch the gentle winds blow, back and forth to and for.
Give me compassion as i watch them grow.
When all else has failed and all things have passed away.
Mix compassion with understanding as I may watch these winds play.
Even if they blow strong or...

Since I've turned 3 quarters of a century old
And have a hole in my heart I'm told
Sitting on top of that a small tumor
This definitely isn't a run away rumor  

I am old and slightly fat(well some say obese)
Controlled diabetes on top of that...

These i spy with my little eye
tossed aside, two black-and-white die
silver glinting of a spoon
little green soldiers in a platoon
things you forget around the house
things i pick up, quiet as a mouse
a pencil here, a postcard there
pins and buttons to fill my lair
and ever so...

I. 
they say 
there exist languages without words
without syllables yet pronounced,
like the sharp clatter of fork and spoon and knife against each other
at dinners in our family.
a vase shattered to the floor last night
at an hour way past our bedtime.
sister and i know that only...

THE HIPPOPOTOMOUSE

A rare and dangerous species
is the hippopotomouse
If you get one in your attic
Then you’d better leave your house....

There is a hut,
I'm riding on a rut,
I hope it does not rust,
I don't need to be hasty,
Where things can in a hurry,
I am a bit blurry,
I made it on the top of a cherry,
You don't need to feel sorry,
I saw something shiny,
Soon, it will...

In my mind
There lives a child
Scared, trembling
Wounds still bleeding
Young one, I did not wish this fate on you

But the world is cruel
There is no safe place to hide
They will always find you

Young one, do not blame yourself
You did not cause this
Do not blame the world
For...
