Best Staticky Poems
The staticky-stars climax under intense blanket of Winter glow.
Your spouse can’t see your spirited green eyes that burn slow.
The friction of campfire sticks, the satiny slipperiness of moon.
Flames of blue, orange and red won’t be overcome too soon.
Pert rose petals, that once were goosebumpy and ice cold,
scintillate like fireworks until the grand finale’s loosed, uncontrolled.
Warm breath in a cold Winter’s steamy and a restless beast.
Lips lavish over late night feast, matches singe, sate increased.
Squirming under the leisurely complement of coals, coalescing,
Coolness of a blue lake vaingloriously countering, distressing.
A long midnight’s thrashing, sans pillory; the high beams foray.
Pillow talk, a sensuous squeeze, a high-diving elixir bouquet.
Ah those stars brilliantly glowing on a long Winter’s night!
Those limbs blush, rose petals crush, with unfettered light.
Green like trees following a river
what choice do they have really
green returning to the ocean after a storm
green emotions
queasiness
waves of sickness
jealousy
grass chewed to puke out poison
even as night falls
a darkly ominous forest tinted sky
greenhouses reflecting early stars shimmering leaf-like auras
green autos spread like dominos at a drive-in movie
a tricked out goblin’s pickup with dark windows and green headlights
and a staticky green light coming from where sun doesn't shine
green voids filling green spaces
Green Peace, with dancers in green tutus and pointe shoes
that skip like moss covered stones
across an ocean deep pond or verdant field
green jeans, green skirts on girls that look like they want to go somewhere
they’re ready to go, now!
TAKE ME!
bottles of green beer empty!
what happened to our leprechaun?
Fireworks like galaxies laced with green
jeans, skirts, bras that explode at your touch
smears of green across an impressionistic sky
leaving only softness behind
naked thighs that pillow your head, as you breath deeply
the smoky green residue that burned into her flesh too
Green musk hangs from twilight’s enveloping arms
and covers the saturated moors of imagination
like a morning fog that rises to greet
a vibrant dawn pressing her down
deep into the green
Those days are gone, set
afloat upon waves of air-
that in which we dreamed, for we
were dreamers...adrift in the water
that took us to wherever
the currents flowed-
into weedy patches-
weedy and twining like our minds,
like ivy vines on cobblestone walls,
always reaching and climbing
further into the clouds, swirling like
the streams we floated down.
But our youth is lost, as are the
summer days which grew cool,
stolen by the autumn breeze.
Oh,we still have those scenes,
leave-takings into yesteryear,
drifting along on those lazy, black tubes-
sunning upon the dam 'til
our skin baked a golden brown.
Those staticky transistors were never
fine-tuned, but the songs we knew
word for word, and the notes flew
high, swallowed by the blackbirds
gliding in the warm summer sky.
We walked a sash of dusty road,
with Duke dashing ahead, sniffing
grass and daffodils, on point for squirrels
and such, as he was the littoral keeper.
Now the pup has aged, and he hurts
as he circles his spot to lie, but nothing
has changed, really- except our bodies...
for our eyes still see ourselves as youth
reaching toward that summer sky.
My life in here.
It’s all like- commercials.
Which have invaded me.
And I stare at them.
Random, numbing, and dull.
Projected on the walls.
Projected in my eyes that are closed, which is worse.
Images are still there, just deeper.
And they’re looking at me!
Lying to me about something they’re selling.
And the TV is off.
But they are here.
They are talking to me.
Flickering and staticky.
But still…
I am watching.
I can see halos sometimes.
I like to look in the mirror.
And see the staticky snow that outlines me.
My appearance is a secret,
All I see is the light that surrounds.
Surrounds me and serenades me.
Like an omen,
Or premonition.
Of badness?
Or of something else.
I can see halos sometimes.
I can’t see my face sometimes.
I like to look in the mirror anyway.
