Best Unrepeatable Poems

Staff Meeting
	
	At my desk each morning, 
	over my first cup off coffee, 
	I call the staff meeting to order, 
	a gathering together 
	of my various bits and parts 
	that scattered in the night, 
	each to its own devices, 
	be they terror, 
	notes on that yellow...

The world is a place of illusion,
An illusion which mortals would never comprehend
This is a place of vision, of submission
Of something they would never understand 

……………………………….

Life is drama, 
Without any rehearsals
Without any comma
Or any refusals 

………………………..

Love is another thing 
Incomprehensible 
Irreversible 
Unrepeatable
Unthinkable 
Another common fling

A Sister’s Letter

In a letter I found written to your sister,
you wrote no problem existed too large or small
she could not bring it to you for counsel and support.

Best sister in the world, I read on, whereupon these
moist old eyes gave way to sobbing at...

So you, say you so individual
truth to be comforted by original

And there on the pavement
as the collection of sidewalk shoes pass
the crowd stitched together by fashionable thread
in this beating brain box irrelevant
so constrained to the uniformity farce
you bend to the will, but not the life...

Butterflies
Rays of sunlight on a crochet of colors, contrast and shapes.
Feet slowly walking; heart beating fast with excitement
Where will he be?
Eyes searching, ears listening, hands reaching, fingers clenching.

There he is.
Beautiful. Gracious. Delicate. Soft, unimaginable patterns and divine colors.
So unique, no two ever the same.
Some are...

She's enigmatic jazz
Duke's "Sophisticated Lady"
An original, unrepeatable moment
Ella's scat
spontaneous, extemporaneous
Melodic variation
Rhythm like a pulse
Miles' s dissonant resolution
Ornette's free-form come to life
A nuanced persona
informed by her own harmonic base
Billie's smoky ode to Miss Otis sans regrets
Like Bird when he drenched his sax with sweat
as he set...

In the avenues of thought you stirred up ripples 
And waves, and raised all the dust that had settled 
On everything that sat within the circumference
Of a space between two meanings
A tale of two cities

And stared down the twin barrel of ill fate
While the large...

Today is a time in your life;
a precious time of your life
for today is a precious gift
that would be gone, as it’s an unrepeatable gift.

It cannot be taken back.
No matter how much you want it back.
So live today up!, enjoy this precious gift.
So one day,...

I made an unrepeatable memory with you
I purchased an expensive love with you being here
I purchased  chased sea of ers with your leaving 
You are missed in this strom
To see
That how my vessel of love is drowning
I am reaching moning clmly
But without you
This is...

November falls, leaf blown and drab with early twilight; 
did I in some haste to feel the Summer balm 
speed acceleration of the old main drag, 
burn youthful currency as a hated flag? 
I stand in the ruins of age untreatable, 
staring forward at the...
