Unsure of Cell or Shore

...We made our padded rooms,
Trampoline parks for a time,
For bouncing off the walls,
With a crash into the side,
Those clouds our leather breakers,
Of eroding rolling rows,
Salty tongues of the s...

To Fly

...
If I was meant to fly 
I'd have feathers and wings.
For being naked, no lift-off brings.
Instead I try to use sticks, feathers, paper and strings,
like Icarus, and the Wright Brothers, Wilbur a...

Humanity

Humanity 

The pagan pilgrimage, sun-worshippers frequently make
Latter-day phenomenon, take off on a Bronze Age break
Constellations change position, solstices realign
Tropic of Capricorn p...

What does that bird think of me?

...I wonder what that sparrow thinks of me,
As it flits so easily from branch to branch on tree,
While I’m stuck here earthbound, decried to strut all day.
A silly flightless biped with arms that onl...

The Imbalancing Ruse

...Fresh and serene droplets rest in galore
As the dawn smiles on them to adore 
The tiny prettiness in spectral mode
Downs from out of the heavenly abode ;
In dainty drips and drizzles   the elixir...

Your Brothers Keeper

... Between mankind and other animals,
The Creator sees no difference.
They breathe the same air,
they all need the waters,
they all must feed,
they all require shelter and love;
they a...

It Came As Lightning

...It came as lightning
It came as lightning
thunder and fire it had not
but the terrible made surveillance

cows it saw grazing, 
touched them and rejected

birds sat on trees singing, 
looked...

Babel Bagels

...One day Gaia was doodling
with sharp twig, on scribbly gum.
"Note to Self"
These big-brained bipeds
are getting far too cocky for their britches.
All the dumb-arses 
are becoming smarty-pants.

Ballad For Precious Planet

...Now hear this tale of Planet Earth
And how it was robbed of its worth.

From a species of quadruped
There evolved a novel biped,
A new species with arms and hands
And versatile for new demands....

The Reluctant Prey

...Black grass dances in the warm winter air
And furry quadrupeds run wild with the
Shackles of instinct.

The metallic creature gives spontaneous birth
To bipeds who desire to kill for sport;
Two...

A Twilight Lens

...A fish crow has tan-
blue sparkles; pearls coat the sky.
A resting brook 

is melting chocolate, 
it flows through lime-green sprouts. 
A burning orange 

is the sun;

yet a rock can wears ...

The Foxy Neutrino

...The psychology of the sun is strange...

The violinist's taupe 
strapped sandals, color of beach 
sand, burning, slap tiles

with embedded grime, like
the charred plaster walls of a Syrerian

To Sir With Gratitude

...fair glinting gold

                   light shining bold

                        this I saw

                     for my 'flaw' is to be

                     not of your world

The Endge

...The E(n)dge


I leave damp mudprints 
there where I met the shore.

The dragonflies' dances,
the goslings scrammed,
and I for now (or 'lo, for once)
exhaled.  Edges do that.

Smiling Kingfish

...Kingfish sat tall in the boat.
His baited hook trolled behind,
To entice lurking humanoids,
He would fillet before he dined.

The ocean had schools of bait,
Swimming humanoids could not resist—...
