Feet up where fat toes recline
defying gravity,
it's not 'happy hour' nor sad time,
it's just time.
The world has been over-thinking
again,
forgetting its fictional place
in the self-replicating
mind-maze.
There is no escape,
I'm just relaxing between
the tracks.
This laced numbness will quickly pass,
yet ice cubes do break through
all the dream chasing
for a while.
I'm not checked out,
not checked in,
just drinking.

Cuddle with me, darling.
We are like two ice cubes.
Still, we are like twins
in a fetal position.
And warm, we shall be
soon, but cocooned
in sleep, not knowing
at what hour we warmed
each other, but we do
remember how we laughed,
light flickering in our eyes,
as our lips touched in the morning.
The ice cube joke between us,
intimately humorous.

I don’t get it
The now of then
The how of why
The who of whom
Six kids one toilet
Last one in line
Squeeze tight the cheeks
Such drama, nobody speaks
Hands that tell lies
Search for brittle memories
Clutch at the past
As it fades away
Don’t like the cold
It pinches my cheeks
to make breath clouds
The bus is late

CUBES HAVE EIGHT CORNERS
Dice have three dimensions
Opposite faces total seven
Luck represents a fourth
Winning is finding Heaven

Cubism - words in cubes
Put words in cubes.
Ideas aligned at once,
inside the box, attuned.
Intensive interplay, makes sense.

we're looking at this huge deposit
where the cubes are millimetrically placed
juxtaposing one by one with no space left
so the columns are rising uniformly
until they almost reached the ceiling
soon a new column is raised in the same way
completing rows and lines and series
advancing the amounts from the back
until gradually occupying all the spaces
finally reaching the top
when all columns are filled
the door closes automatically
then we will look at a huge empty deposit
where the cubes will be millimetrically placed
juxtaposing one by one with no space left
and so it goes on forever and ever

Confused Dachshund
There's a dachshund from Key Biscay
saving ice cubes for a sweltery day
He buries them deep
hoping they'll keep
and wonders how they get away

Ice cubes
crunch beneath teeth
clear cold melting delight
chilly glaze coating my numb tongue
frost bite

Happy step mother's day
Sorry your card is soggy.
I tucked a few ice cubes inside it.
The same ones you spit onto my soul
so many years ago.
{They all see the gentle-gray-haired grandma
and wonder why I keep my distance}.
but I grew up under the ass of that crow {you didn't}
Crapping out ice cubes on my young soul-
I wear the rouge on my psyche as proof.

Yesterday , I woke up frozen
In sorrow cubes
Scattered on the ground
To trample underfoot
The certainty of sprouts
Rooted in the fear of crowd
That is sorry , tired
Of the designs of a dream
Of peace and freedom
Embedded in the pulley
Of brotherhood acts
Today , I woke up frozen
In cubes of certainty
Which the sun no longer melts
Even if elevated
At higher temperature
The reality of the scourge
In cubes of certainty
I will face the sober of the whip

Placed two ice cubes on a hill...
Watched them glide as they will...
The blissful ride took many turns...
Dripping through a path of many yearns...
Destination is a warm sweet place...
Where raining flames kiss my face...
Each cube melts in the oven of enticement...
Where it can be tasted on lips with pure excitement...

Cubes boil in suffocation.
As cubes inject with insemination.
Cubes fall over with abandonment.
How the cubes sing out lament.
Cubes of purple red and black.
Help the cubes find out what they lack.
Cubes become a mental state.
When eighteen cubes begin debate.
Cubes cannot tell help depression.
Because they are not in session.
Cubes dissolve and become nought.
Helpless cubes cannot be bought.
