A look, a touch, a movement, a greeting,
Invisible matter is now a thing in fashion.
Waves of dark energy arrange a meeting,
Similar attractors find a matching passion.

It's a cosmic, complimentary compatibility;
A reciprocated smile on an ice-blue planet.
It's a notion that aids our species' longevity;
Soulmates: two poles...

In a ravaging mind
devoid of plain vision,
all purpose of motion
gets abandoned on hold
once losing that stable
clarity of judgment,

still paying off judgments
with tortures taxing mind;
gusts fill tissues stable
regardless of vision
to load each vessel hold
using sanguine motion.

I present my motion
to lungs before judgment,
proving walls never hold
since logic...

Telegraph poles
Derelict each in their own way
Watch the Forest creep around
Mountains watch them rot
Trains skitter past
The River pays no mind
Dragging their wires on the Ground
Useless
Many miss glass eyes
Many hang their arms
Some have fallen
None talk
No more dots and dashes...

Sometimes it’s like pulling teeth in pain, even with Novocain
Or climbing a San Francisco hill in a Chevy Chevette
Or trying to fly a kite on a none windy day

Words I say, from my heart to yours, seldom come easy
I’m certain my brain is not on...

how could we be so diametric
opposed even in the littlest things
leaving us unendingly apoplectic
unconscious of what each other brings

to the field of our mutual magnetism
lines of attraction wide-out arcing
bridging polarities of our schism
creating bonds of thoughts sparking

possibility for a new way of viewing
and thinking about...

I know it’s cold up north for you
It’s flipping cold down south as well 
Though we’re poles apart in so many ways
You up north and me down south
There’s still that draw to you
Because of your magnetic attraction you see
Just wondered if you fancied a holiday...

The Eagles accomplished their goal
To play in this year’s Super Bowl.
Their fans are all thrilled
That they have fulfilled
For Philly, a huge starring role.

For if they are the Super Bowl champs,
Then revelers won’t allow cramps
To their partying ways
Though in past winning days
The authorities dealt with some...

If lines and verse are indeed
the tool's we poet's are to use
in order to dictate the thought
process of one's inner soul

Then surely love should capture
an inadvertent overture of subtleties,
tenderness and kindness

And on the other hand if one wishes
to vent one's rage the pen should 
pierce...

You say Brexit I say love.
You say independence I say love.
You say European Union I say love.
You say immigration I say love.
You see coloured people I see love.
You see disadvantage I see love.
You see gay people I see love
You see people who are different I...

crooked in between the straight lines 
in full view somehow hidden
just like old times but everything is new

you whisper so loud my heart skips a beat 
drowning out the little things that made the most sense
the contrasts so obvious and we still pretend to not...

Between Two Poles

Between two poles
The child takes flight.
Impelled by the sun
Ceased by the night. 

Caught in a web
He did not spin.
The balance of life
Hangs on with a grin.

A polar bear seeking a mate
Spruced up his fur coat for a date.
Alas, his sweetheart
Had drifted apart
For sadly, he'd left it too late!

Like telephone poles on a country road
    the years stretch endlessly before him
  One no different than the other
    an 'only family,' no sisters, no brothers

  The first stretch he calls 'office poles'
    pencil-sharpening,...

Pulled in every direction
south, north, east and west
I live for your affection
Your cherished caress
Poles may shift and change
Over many milennia
The Earth may blight
Certainty is on my side,
As I hold you tight.
