Specific Moment Is When He Begins To Feel
I can get big, fill up a room
till it shines and shimmers, and you
feel uncomfortable sitting there in that thickness...

I asked the old fruit tree out back
To bare something sweet for a snack
Went back the next day
His root was displayed
I chopped him down quick in one whack

The Specific Ocean
The point is dull upon the spear,
But still it pierced my greatest fear-
That this pain will always worsen
(My sinking ship so wayward steered)
Through the Ocean of my person
Toward a vortex, alas! Am veered!
I'll sail to Hell- cursed excursion!
But, lo! An island doth appear-
The sea doth...

One Special Feather- One Specific Rhyme
The large feather floated in the thermal air
twirling and swirling up and down, round and around.
Where has it come from, what’s it doing there?
In wonder I scooped it into my cupped hands
gently blowing on it to see the *filoplume quiver…..and
as I lay it on the...

Ghetto Specific

Homegrown deprivation weeds of poverty
taste like grassroot famine
Detroit dark amber alert operatic style ...
Ms. Sing Hope
is an Ursa skydive dirt bier
Purchasing uninsured ash fault grief
from an actuary worm liar
She has an octave register three days higher

Right on cue,
Misery is standing on Eight Mile;
(the black boundary...

SPECIFIC MOMENTS

visual language
  inspiration
in
retrospective

 contemporary
dreams
of an alternative
future
 a moment 
of
reckoning
 flooded
 into
the eye
once  moribund
now
 captivated
 encountering
 the beauty
of refinement

 to establish
affinities 
between
the sensitive
& the
 non-comprehensive

a turning point
a  narrative
of the a romantic
constantly
renewed
 in
the mind

a battleground
& clashing 
of styles
 a sign 
of prescience
& genius

 an indicator
of dialogue
in rethought
figuration
of
the
absurd


NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique...

Not Specific This God
Not specific this God beyond understanding
Said Elihu to Job long ago.
Outstretches all classification,
Not bound by identity one or another,
Bigger than any holy publication,
God above definition of those who made God
Pleasing to themselves, that is,
A gender-ascribed Bronze Age tribal god of war
Unable to deliver from foreign...

Gone are the days of simplicity
Open are the times of complexity
I must relate
There is no debate
I must develop a sense of ambidexterity

when some things stop

it is fractals

marking density
patterns of voids

subject to laws of nature

Prolific Poems Should Be More Specific
All of my poems may be prolific;
Subject should be more specific;
With much logic and common sense;
Understood even if you are dense.

From my finger poems always run;
From start until finally be done;
Take a break along with some rest;
Which for me always will be best.

Start Being Specific
Start Being Specific

We always thought that it would be terrific,
If some people sounded much more specific 
Do want to be heard,
Each idea and word;
Who only prefer to be profound and prolific.

People now dead who once there...
