will a car come from around the corner and hit me
will a robber stick me up at gun point......will he...

Two Murders - Part I1.
In the slow, dead hours that hang attendant
Upon the birth of the dawn,
When all things pure lie safe abed,
Nested in sleep's safe oblivion,
The rituals take place, unseen, unfelt
In woods or alleys
In the dry, dusty corners of the old parts of town
In any of the legion...

The BallerinaLong ago there lived a girl with long livid locks of sable,
Whose vivid avid amber eyes derived, it seems, from fable.
Her tiny tendons tied to nimble bones to each limber muscle enhanced,
By the hours and hours of practice made perfect with her sport of dance.
Her...

The preacher man ask me never to curse a thing

The day gun was made
Worth a curse
A fast way to end a...

SynthHow could he be so cold with the raging lightning striking through his aluminum lines?
His synthetic skin made of wax, glass, and fibrous mass has more than an eternity brushed abrasively against my own. His serpentine belt has been felt and wetted with the...

Butterfly KissAll across an area
Of poising purple peonies
She's silently secretly stalking
beautiful butterflies betrothed bright blue
Wishing with wonder what wagers would want
From ferociously fluttering fabulous faces
Casting closely to colored camouflaging kaleidoscopes
Until the usually utterly untrustworthy upon the unfortunate
Lands lightly on lips, laminating labyrinths
extreme exultations explode....

Covered BridgeOnce The Covered bridge
Till last fine month
I was poising firm,
Aloft those giggling waters
that often went wild.
Taking pride of
my sinewy timbers,
As brimming loads of
endless desires passed by.
In my days of youth
Condoned the avid,
Drudgery and ambitious,
Smirked evermore.
For years having allured
many adorable twosomes,
Charming familiar faces
grew up...

12th Street12th Street
The curtain rises, the stage light
beams on the darkest street in town.
On a hot night, 12th street lives.
The old abandon buildings jump
with jazz, hot rock, and laughter.
Transient stars appear in glittering gowns,
poising for sightseers and seekers,
modeling down the rubble grey stage
with eyes that call,...

Gulf SpillThe gods of oil have reigned downed their wrath,
For which we have not begun to see the aftermath.
For thousands of miles balls of tar will wash upon a virgin beach.
It will be felt around the world, every place that water will reach.
And every land and...

Divide and ConquerWe have the purveyors
That hide the truth
Causing division
Poising the minds of youths
With hateful ideologies
And entangled roots
In a confused state
They spread the lies
In a toll of consequences
And on the streets
Innocents die
Their aim is but one
To keep us in a cage
Whilst they bask in glory
Of ill-begotten gains
Equality...

On BedlamHe sat on the bed of roses
They were spread in a confused manner
Certainly intrepid in their graciousness
Their petals waning at their edges
And there alone, he sank into another
She was distant in his dream
He was imagining all the need, the drunkness
Like he had had a dose...

Flowing fragrance they are
Glowing glee they are
Lively lightning they are
Tender thunder they are

Moving Moon they are
Majestic Mountain they are
My Sky they are
My Stars they are
My boon they are
Blooming buds they are
Timely talented they are
Right Role...
