Spring has sprung now
Spring melts the snow
Spring weather better than
winter cold
Spring  is here birds are back
Spring brings life to bushes
and trees
Spring flowers begins to bloom
Spring sunshine lifts our spirits
Spring is here winter is gone
Yet today a tease of snow on 
the ground coated with...

I do not know
Know not do I

Cry my in snow
Snow in my cry

Try hard to grow
Grow hard to try

Fly wings broken
Broken wings fly

Lies just are lies
Lies are just lies

Cries fall grey skies
Skies grey fall cries

Spy's in disguise
Disguise in spy's

Prize the on eyes
Eyes on the prize...

THE DANCE POETIC (just a play with words, acrostic variation)

    T     tantalizing, titillating theater, transpires

Repeated Rebellion



Shielded ventilation silently choke within
Vision fading blackouts around and around again

Captivity corrupted as greed fills the plate
The burning acidic desire for everything to hate

Vivid recollections splash across the head
Proud of the torture in a painful death bed

Fearlessly without remorse emotions are so weak
Truth is...

Seeing yesterday's mistakes repeat themselves

Looking for hope like looking for elves

Lessons learned reversing like a mirror

Judging without considering the interior

Basic teachings lost like a dream that was nothing but a blur

Greed and false promises continuing to lure

Almost like the world has dyslexia

Arguing over who is...

I never fought in Vietnam…my parents never had to worry…to fear…to morn…for the simple reason my draft number was connected to the day that I was born.

I sat watching draft numbers being picked…wondering what I was going to do until my birthday draft number was...

In these repeated words and limited vocabulary
I buried my sorrows and pain
with no solutions to be found in prayers
with no replies from my gods or my guardian angels
my tears are these occasional poetic explosions
Thrown away or cast away along the time
I lost the meaning of...

Have mercy oh! priest 
To God through Mary let my plea 
Seven times more my sins 
I fear I must do it again. 

I sinned again o priest,
And must to this alter pray 
in your ears all my vile secrets  
Forgive me and through...

You only get
one shot
in this game,
one chance
to make
your mark.
There are
no repeats
This is it
It's all
you've got
So make
the most
of this opportunity
Give your
best efforts
100%
Don't regret
Just move forward
with your eyes
to the heavens...

Some things go without saying 
So it never needs repeating 
When your heart is overstating
Every word that it's preceding...
In  promise's you may make to one
That filters through to many 
As honest as your stake in some
With meaning if worth any....
When you know the one...

Standing there thinking, wondering if there is a difference from the time before. Or just crawling through the same open door. Time and space always seem to repeat. A history to soon meet. Slowly sliding into the same tattered path. Starting to feel that overwhelming...

HISTORY GROOK #1

History is an open book
We could easily turn the pages.
Perhaps our fear prevents a read
Of life throughout the ages?



HISTORY GROOK #2

History in flux;
The ebb and flow of life;
Lessons learned by none.


[For C.L. Thornton, the master of the grook.]...
