The surgery
 
I’m waiting for a friend of mine
He is having heart surgery tomorrow
And it is lonely not having friends around
The day before a serious surgery
We’ll not talk about illnesses’ and other
Subject related to hospitals.
Not talking in hushed voices but...Read More

Subliminal messages
Contested contests
Running from the lessons
Refusing the blessing
I am censored

Greater distances
Unleavened Witnesses
Running from the lessons
Renewed false confession
Who am I. . I am censored

The pace
  I walked for 50 minutes
 Inhaling fumes of cars, it is like
 Living in a roundabout
The see air on the seventh floor
At my flat, the air is healthier
But I walk every day because
It is suitable for my...Read More

I'm fuming mad Bobby,
where's my Halloween candy?
 
I'll make you a zombie
so don't try to lie to me. 
I know you took it.

You've got chocolate 
smeared all over your face
and you're the only one here.

Dog–gonnet!

Dog–gonnet!

Where is it, Bobby?

Strikingly crafty logomaniac presents...
what else... his trademark blatherskite!

While sprawled comfortably
numb upon davenport
Iowa daily dose of poetic mishmash,
thus yours truly couches, kneads, sports...
his imponderable matted
swiftly styled balderdash
noah intent to kindle
potential ark enemy, nor abash

please pardon your
garden variety philologos,
preparing himself for backlash

‘When did you last see me’?

It was a Tuesday
I changed your diaper.....I can still smell your poop.

‘And then’?

You at four, your little hand tugging me into love.
At six, finger-painting;
my garish face splashed onto blank paper,
eye’s googly-bright like crazy suns.

‘I don't...Read More

The exile
    No matter how far
    To the other side of the moon
     if you like
    Sadness follows an exile.
    Never at ease

The idea is to figure out a problem 
And if I do it with grace, I can honestly say I got em.

Saints, gargoyles, Kings and imps,
mix, match and mingle.
The beatific and the ogres
hang over slate roofs 
like drunks at closing-time.

The stone-masons were subversives,
they must have drunk on the job,
yet Remigius de Fécamp, Bishop Alexander,
and St Hugh of Lincoln
all signed off on...Read More

The outdoors
 
Once, I walked on newly fallen snow
It was sobering,
but then it got cold, and feet froze
enough of sobering.
Thick, woollen socks and boots
I’m not an outdoor man
Traversing the North Pole is not
For me, I’m not a penguin.
 I like...Read More

There they go down the street 
Even before they had anything to eat
During this tradition that has no admission 
People have a wide-eyed appeal
 Since this party is truly the real deal 
When marchers march, dancers dance, and balloons fly...Read More

A Game of Life

Life, for anyone, is very complex game
The way you play it, give it the name

While running a marathon
Don’t take others head on 
If it’s race of dash, however
It’s over in a flash from nowhere

It it’s a boxing...Read More

Show Riders Have A Horse,
And They Love to Do A Course.

They Wait Around to See If They Have Won.

Show Riders Are So Mellow.

Show Riders...Read More

If I were not afraid, I'd challenge my life long
enemy to a royal rumble.

It would be like the Muhammad Ali and 
' Smokin' Joe Frazier match.
Or like the 'Sugar' Ray Leonard and  Thomas 
' the hitman' Hearns fight.
I've been...Read More

They say that gold don’t tarnish. It ain’t so.
They say it has a wild, unearthly glow.
A man can be more beautiful, more wild.

Before we get down to your last sites,
I think I should, really, try to relate.
That theyre, now,
only one, very hateful look,

That it appears,
they're real sick of your face to, too!

You should have never...Read More

He will never save the world from alien invasion
Win a medal for outstanding bravery

Save a child from a burning building.
But what he really wants to be his child’s super hero.
