Best Prominently Poems
If I Write Down WordsIf I write down words
that pour from me like
water rushing from a rusty gutter
carrying my cries in the flood
with decaying leaves and
the smattering off the roof
of droppings from so many
prominently perched pigeons,
is that a poetry of sorts?
If the aged shingled roof leaks
at its eaves (like...

Where Is the AngerWhere is the anger! The rage! And the courage, I expected to see?
Why is everyone so complacent?
Evangelical Christians have endorsed a cheat, a liar, a bigot, and a misogynist
because he's pro-life, God will forgive the rest; hallelujah!
Democracy used to cannibalize democracy; please pass the...

The Beheading of St John the BaptistI stood hidden in the shadows, watching
as Salome, clad in flowing veils, gyrated
to the music, exuding sensual richness.
Herod leered drunkenly at her vibrant body.
Overcome by uncontrolled lusty desire
he promised her anything that she wished for
and, prompted by her evil mother, she asked
for the head of...

(Phu Pha Phet Cave)
The largest cave here in Thailand
Has an eighteen acres in total size
It is not that easy for us to find
But if we’ll get in there, it’s a big surprise!
We need to explore first the side of the mountain
Be patient and...

Thy Sword: the Masculine PrincipleWhat is this period, which illustrates the weak motions
of dull blades, and misguided swings?
I am an unfortunate imitator, as the fearless edge I once
owned, has faded prominently among the flock as well.
It is not the passion which is forever stuck in the...

Two Flaws Make Us BrightA Fundamentalist Flaw assumes too great a divide
between HumanLiberating Left
and DivineConserving Right
hemispheric cultures.
Left's deduction gestalt is all about separating human nature
(Ego's experiential nature)
from Earth's sacred nature of transcendent
truth-passion/beauty-pleasure,
which is much more of a Right Brain experience
of Holistic Spirit/Nature,
including economic ecological habitat
within personal...

A Case For Greatness Mother's Day DedicationI must apologize to all those who claim
that they have "The Greatest Mom in the World!"
For I know that they are all misinformed
Please jury, don't think me cruel
but my mom always taught me to tell the truth
So today under oath I will present...

Systemic ChangeIt is known throughout Earth's anonymous
unanimous Commons,
Systems are hard to change.
The more macro-competitive,
Yang-strong,
The more difficult of all conversion stories
Over pernicious decades,
We tend to add "isms"
to pathological ends
of these global systemic issues.
This polyculturalistic/multiculturalism suffix,
negative appendage,
suggests a pejorative problem
of systemistic stuckness,
where once may have lived
a progressive potential...

The Cafe Paris ChinaI love all things Paris related since I visited France.
I would go back in a heartbeat, if given the chance.
The Eiffel Tower stands tall and majestic as it guards the city.
The women in Paris are sophisticated and chic, and oh so pretty.
Two years ago I...

On the CatwalkIn numerous locales countrywide, they hold sway
Pirouetting at intervals like ballerinas from Bolshoi
Beauteous, feline and very feminine
Slender to the point of emaciation, not quite
Cultivating the undernourished look on a frugal diet
Decidedly austere for a longer tenure in the limelight
Basking in the fleeting warmth of an...

Antique StoreI took my periodic stroll through the local antique store today.
I stumbled over things and stepped 'round clutter to make my way!
I looked for clocks - found none, but saw many things I could do without,
And those are the things that I propose to tell...

A Cosmic JourneyTaken a light cosmic journey in a
hyper-luminous light vehicle.
I view space grandioso of "light bulb,"
blue big blazing bedazzling beacon;
a brilliant bright behemoth blistering.
Warp to a Pulsar star:
I view its pulsing light;
projecting prominently, its
pinpoint precision is like an atomic clock timing
Light-speed to:
Magnetars: mighty magnetic magnets.
Neutron...
