INVENTORY

Are you

growing old with grace?
this would seem to be ideal
among the ancient –
living style with wide appeal,
mental powers all in place

Well

take inventory.
how about deformity,
forgetfulness,
pain, its enormity?
broken down, is that the story?

Is there

a need for escape –
glory in the childhood years,
the times of fun and games
to...

Adam was an 
acceptable accountant
And Eve a bubblingly 
bright bookkeeper;
Adam loved the 
First-In, First-Out
Accounting (FIFO) system, 
While Eve preferred 
The Last-In, First-Out
Inventory (LIFO) system;  
Together they testified that
Inventoried sweet fruit 
should neither 
Sits and spoil 
nor go to the 
Garden wastebasket 
Wrongfully....

Cherished ...
Is the word I use to describe
The works of poetry that I add to my preferred list

That list is quite limited ...
I suppose you could say I'm picky
But those poems are the whole package
NOT with respect to having all the elements
That I look for...

What have you stolen?
What tic, what response from me
did you palm and put in your pocket?

What have you stolen?
Did you collect the bits of paper you tore off
and paste them back together
on a blank page of your notebook?

Did you use the shreds as easter grass,
or...

She died of an overdose
Heroin, like spiderwebs
Separating millions of core-nerves

From reality-living neutral
Until coals revive blanc

Sorrows, child left behind
Awaiting distress

I found her flower etched
Jeans, in my office

I threw them into the trash
Her beauty crushed

What could have become?
 
What could have

Long day did finally pass;
toiled along vexing its morass.
Arrived back home to rest and retire;
energy and inspirations soon to expire.
Debrief my conceptions and thoughts;
queery my moves and those aught nots.
Lay at ease to stargazes and dreams;
job well done for me it seems.

Do you have what it takes
Do you have stage legs
That won’t break?

Can you make eye contact
Do you know the difference
Between compare and contrast?

Can you weather the storm
In spite of illusionary harm?

If you meet all the criteria than you’re the one 
Who’s conquered inferior and your
Confidence...

Inventory, Inventory, 
everything is for the glory
Innocence, my innocence
e'er bequeathing recompense!

Where but deny ~ my own expense
the cost of trial in motion's hence?
Oh innocence ~ my heart's own fence
was crumpled ~ from without's consent!

Ne'er more, ne'er more ~ the hoaxed pretense,
reveal the scourge
the scourger's meant!
Oh...

Date:  August  2050
10:45 blissful Monday morning
Damian was in his DHRR office 
Peering through the panoramic 
Window. As he  met on Skype 
With investors and his brothers in
The office. The Hakim family was
Willing to invest in the new Japanese high
Technological Hoover craft owned
By...

Keg full of monkey j*zz
	Jar packed with grime
Little tank of tiny turtles
	Pot of slug slime.

Shaker full of flea larvae
	Small box of moss
Squeeze-tube of mushy meat
	Flask of dog sauce.

Leeches in a cookie tin
	Ice tray of blow
Now can you play to win
	This cooking show....

Never eager for glory

Maybe this is it
Our time to do an inventory check
Of what is important
Of what messes with our soul
What's irrelevant 
We might also neglect things
We thought were important
Cause honesty they never were

So maybe all those lightweight relationships 
We thought were integral
Just lost all their shine
Because we...

I do not have
apparent estates,
fungible assets,
Farm, cattle
boats ...
I don't live in
sumptuous mansion,
luxury flat,
I live in socks
waters, four
distressed walls ...
I shelter daughters and grandchildren
on the living room table
tight ... alive
tight and not
I have a bungalow ...
But if we discuss of
invisible holdings, I have
a lot: thousands
of songs...

I destroyed a lot of me
(I think you must have destroyed it too),
not being exactly who I'm supposed to be
simulating strength and walking barefoot
over coals for so long.
Guess the stores never sold
what i really needed.
I keep thinking about these confusing years
and when I touched the...
