Cut It Poems

What would we do without our morning brew
It's our salvation when waking between me and you
Tea doesn't cut it
Orange juice unsuited
Only that good old fashioned brew will surely do

My daughter's ideas strange as could be
A moonscape wedding demanded from me
Would Lunar sites open June twenty-three
I checked with NASA; it wasn't to be

What now? said my daughter, awash in tears
Reliving some of her very worst fears
Earthbound doesn't cut it,...Read More

Where were you when i needed you the most?
Where were you when I needed comfort from home?
Clearly it is not anymore
Clearly it is desolate in it's bitter groans

Both mother's have abandoned me I see
Never shall I return to them,
As they...Read More

I treated this strange creature  with great care
I  knew she was not human, so unfair
She looked like my old cat before it died
Someone give her food,  make sure it’s fried

She could not mew nor bark nor did...Read More

Solemn

As I walk alone, 
the path before me, 
long and full of pain, 
my thoughts are only on you. 
You went forward, 
when others ran or fell beside. 
You went into the fray, 
not afraid to pray, 
for your fellow...Read More

I open a window and look out at the night.
I wonder when it was that we gave up the fight?
To ensure that the freedoms exist for every man.
No matter where his father came from.

I feel the cold night air on...Read More

In a town in West Virginia,
The annual parade,
A holiday tradition,
Was to be differently portrayed.

For the brand-new mayor, wanting
To make all feel they belonged,
Changed the Christmas parade to Winter,
But most residents felt they’d be wronged.

It’s a sticky tricky topic
Coming up this...Read More

I'm looking for another heart, a new one, por favor,

       See, mine is cold and broken - I don't want it anymore ...

In one's life, there's a possible runner
in fact a certain runner full of bolt
that if not controlled will outrun you
so keep your guard on make it jolt

Knowledge, the giant tree
The shapeless mighty
None can see,
None can cut
Only can learn, acquire
by following previous wise someone
or contemplation on every part of nature

I born to come
To this giant amorphous tree
Powerful its roots, trunks, crowns
(branches, twigs, leaves, flowers, fruits, flowers, winds,...Read More

The Boy is  three,  his sister, two

I can’t hear your water
Make it bigger 
The windows are colorful
Rainbow indigo
Like a pillow 
Because it’s colorful 
Why you say that  to me?
Why why why?
I’m gonna go in this cave
This cave...Read More

Silliness is what silliness does, an old proverb
I'm a professional, so don't challenge what I offer
That's really “prunkin”
You country bumpkin
Just don't cut it, my mind's quite awkward

the haughty poet murmured to me.
Alas, dear poet, that I cannot do.

The grief in this...Read More

One day heartless stood before love 
with cold blood inside the veins ugly intentions 
sadness thirsting warmth it began to lie continue'sly 
about the deep rooted character within itself caged

The snake began to form venom in such sweet words

a blind man once said
"see...my saw doesn't cut it
eyes don't hammer on"

so he analogued 
and built a winding staircase...
that did continue

back to origins
as language...the idea
being of constructs

invisible shapes...
continued abstract sculpting
purely of the mind

My pain level is an eight on a scale of one to ten.
Poor you, someone says. Someone who has no idea
That I have been running on pain levels of ten for three weeks.
An eight is terrific; great, something to strive...Read More

All is still 

Daybreak slithers over yesterday’s face 
Takes its place 

The trees look on       silent        speechless 
Moved ,  but barely moving 

All is still

Look that cute face
One I could kiss without haste
I wonder what the head is filled with
Probably a little of chaste and a lot of mischief


Look at the at cute nose
So tiny but always runny like a hose
Very fragile i think...Read More

The Poet in His Casket

Well, look at you lying there!
In your brown suit and gold tie.
How I want to hug you now!
You can't be dead, you're only forty
years old!

We lived together till you took a new
wife!
Her name was alcohol and...Read More

Is magic science? Is magic science?
I want to know how its science,
It’s sometimes a head pain,
It’s always a brain span!

I see many fairy flying,
I see witch future changing,
Is magic science? 
Is it science?

Is magic science, I always thought,
Nobody helped me...Read More

Take away everything love has tought
Take me into your arms sweet dark...Read More

I’m Sorry


I am sorry to those who felt 
That I was the one to help
The person who had lost their way
I tried my best to give them hope
And to the one who needed it most
But I am sad to say...Read More

A Shadorma


Oh spectre
of the blackest ink,
satin shroud
feathering;
ignorance begets terror
though you are a bird.

Poe’s penning
only adds darkness
to legends
greatest plight;
feared by those who believe myth,
unfounded tall tales.

Cailleach did
feast on men’s bodies
in disguise,
a raven,
her dark disguise projecting
into human eyes.

Totem for
the great Bran; guarded
by...Read More

I saw unpaid policies
A busted borehole
I saw my Mama die
And our broken cars
I saw them grabbing the land
And defrauding the will
I saw no money coming in
And the torture of our rabid dog
Saw him biting another getting rabies too
Saw him biting...Read More
