Best Priors Poems
Merry Christmas, You Have CancerI'd been throwing up a lot.
My food stuck in my throat,
So every time I had a meal,
I'd cough and gag and choke.
I went to see my doctor,
Time and time again.
They gave me Barium swallows,
But found nothing in the scan.
For seven years they fooled around.
One doctor...

Caregiving Stories ContinuedWounded Sacred Dementia
My last foster care-provider
and -receiver story
is also a sad story
of my last special needs adoption
of bipolar born,
and oppositionally reared,
alcoholism.
My BiPolar Wounded Child
turned an auspicious five
on the day I first saw her,
and promptly rejected her,
not in dipolar person,
but in a picture of Little Brown...

Claudia Elezibeth BenzioWe never met little Claudia face to face,
But she gave hope to our lives for a time.
A monthly letter or picture she might trace,
Was enough to make our lives quite sublime.
The Orphanage tutored her in English preparing,
For the day we both felt sure would...

A Dog's Itch*Image of Queen's Corgi Whisper by MetroN.
A Dog's Itch
Sepulchral presence seeps a dream,
Nightmarish thoughts spirit the theme,
Fortunate beseech blest pleasance,
Seeps a dream sepulchral presence.
Endless priors fruitless outcome,
Undying fail roughly succumb,
Deathly hallows a field day fires,
Fruitless outcome endless priors.
Zenith star wilts forsook expressed,
Powers that be affect...

Tatiana Needed Support To Come Out
Lil' Tatiana her stomach like butterflies,
Could not speak in public, had doctor analyze,
Prescribed taking lessons and try to improvise,
Instead, the butterflies started to colonize.
Insecticides were used by helping euthanize,
It did the task but still, she...

Another One GoneA young boy walks down a dark city street
His headphones on as he walks with a beat
For some reason he keeps on looking back
Because in his jacket there is a bag of crack
He keeps on looking for a buyer
In his very short life the boy...

Light Verse
Lapse of ExistenceAs nightfalls come to fruition
Leaving room of conditions
For dreams to strive
And before dawn breaks
Memory ceases to create
So to mediate
Our corporal world
Into transient capacities
Of unborn fallacies
To mitigate now’s journey
Into sanctuaries bearing
All fruits of now’s nativity
In proximity to the ability
Of mystical remnants
Encompassing clear disordinance
When no clue of...

Rectification of the Death of SocietyPetals of a dying rose,
answers I should not suppose.
To those still with life I propose
that the propensities
and proprieties
of dull and dying societies
be cast
out of our anxieties.
For those who commit such travesties
to those who create perfect families....

Are We Man Or MachineAre we man or machine
Who knows what I mean?
You show on the scene
As if it’s routine
We raise our ire
Don’t learn from our priors
So you leave me in dire
When you see me on fire
On this looming tight wire
I hang from the spire
Deflecting piles and piles...

He Will Not ComeHe will not come a second time
for cryers, sates and grum
And will not rest
until he's led

When we all know the time will come
for fires, straits and glum
that we all go the way of sin
for higher traits of dumb...
