Best Installations Poems
Break the MirrorSometimes in our lives
We are compelled to say
'I know you'
A man playing a piano
In a train station
Inspired me to listen and write a poem
The next day I met him
It transpires he's an artist
With installations all over the region
Not that he told me this
I looked it...

The House Wide WebSome spider webs in our house
Are permanent installations
That have been up there so long
I’ve named them constellations
The largest is Webus Major
Made by a little nipper
That crawls around all day long
On what I call the silk dipper
One of my faves has got to be
The Arachnadromeda shape
And...

The All-Time Greatest Great BritainThis small island civilization,
its empire was the largest creation,
with the widest trade connection,
there are mixed views of our colonization.
Many modern countries exist because of the British,
many justifiably say our actions were most brutish.
Some have hate for us and at the same time cherish,
a widespread view...

Here Once Is a TimeThere once was a species
with one sacred EarthTribe Vocation
provoking polyphonic yearnings,
polypathic necessities

There once was a NewTribe health plan

to sing GoodNews wondrous anthems
of global theological geography
to worship politically empowered

Potlatch Cafes and GardensDear Covenant to Empower Children, Inc.
I was in a Potlatch CoHousing Cafe
just the other repair-invested day
for both ego and eco therapy.
Our host introduced
this Potlatch SkillShare event
speaking to himself:
The less I share skills and resources
on cooperative terms
of common educational PositivEnergy endeavor,
The more plutocratically powerful
anti-social logic

Assemblage and mixed-media arts,
imagine a world without a waste,
Salvation mountains, acrylic colourful carts,
Sculptures and installations put with taste,
Self assessment of the deep inside,
Freedom of expressions for all sarcasm,
Thoughts brighten up to everyone's pride,
Epitomising the world, creating a microcosm,
Vibrations of secret knots that bind...

Syria ReconstructedIt is in our fragile, nearly broken, exposure
that we are most available for love
and remedial gratitude,
rather than the louder applause
of our full-blown ballistic glory.
While exercising restrained patience breeds tolerance,
giving pregnant reign to co-empathy compels timeless flow
of organic eternity.
Empathy grows fragile compassionate pause,
easily broken by impatient...

Boundary Issues As OpportunitiesI wonder if everyone
has a most dreaded dreamed
nightmare worst way
to conscientiously drop wrong dead.
Mine is claustrophobi-recallish buried
half alive at best is worse
in a wooden rough pine crate.
I'm feeling angry with those who raped,
then buried me black in here,
because I no longer have commercial value

Inviting JourneysIt seems more obvious
good humor and aggressive violence
do not require linguistic nuances

Messages of eco-centric privilege and underprivilege

And yet it could be true
that guile, spelled unspilled bile,
