Divots Poems

Description Diatribe

...Description, O my diatribe?
Stand before the court!
O comedians, with thy jibe!
Paragraphs to sort!

Where is hope on gallows hill?
Couldn't be real sure.
Yellow priestess, queen until?
Revel...

The Clock on the Wall

...“The Clock on the Wall”

That clock! The clock with cruelty, unmovable.
Telling time to be forever in motion.
The ticking, a deafening sound. 
Marked by grime. 
Yellowed by generations, grown d...

Ocean's kiss

...My footprints 
are kissed by the ocean 
as I walk the beach 
looking back 
the shoreline becomes an etch a sketch 
leaving divots 
filled with water 
I dodge 
between endless sand castles 
b...

Oceans kiss

...My footprints are 
kissed by the ocean 
as I walk the beach 
looking back 
the shoreline becomes 
an etch a sketch

The Stillness of Silence

...For few days between the shaking and shattering of my consciousness, 
The soft arms of Silence 
Wrap around my aching torso 
And pretend to soothe the ever-rapid
Battering of my heart. 

In tho...

To Wait For Wow

...Sobbing
Swallowed by the darkness
Praying for a light

Waiting
Waiting
And passing
And yearning

The moisture of the ground, the divots of age
A nasty crunching sound as I walk into the bla...

Untitled

...Wake up! You awake to cliffside turn-tables--mountains crumble into the divots of the record; mountain goats float upon ethereal notes. They bleat in conjunction with dusty LPs. Soon enough, cities r...

Replacing Divots

...three ducks paddling
300 yards, dogleg left
                           ……..no short game

a feral cat
digging in the sand trap
                               ……..replacing divots

an old dog

With Careful Spoons

...With Careful Spoons

Your perfume essence speaks of lazy afternoons under sage trees.
You kissed my bent neck with a pointed snake of sweet saliva eyes.
Now we are twisting inside my slow tilted ...

Burnt Offering

...Lame lyrics of lost love penned by sweatered sirens
deep as divots, shallow as puddles
Doesn’t teenage angst get old by the time you’re thirty?
I’d think so, yet the lackeys lap it up like maple s...

London

...London
Past meets present meets future,
Smoothed pavement meets uneven cobblestone, water filtering through the divots accumulated from consistently dull weather days,
Tall buildings, cathedrals, ...

Moorland Ponies

...There are wild horses in the heather;
their neighing follows the wake
of hewing wind-wraiths.
The ponies are hardy and stout, they go
in and out of the clouds, slip through
swale and dingle.

I Come Before You

...I come before you, proclaiming you're Brother
Or Sister in Christ's death, that Eve was our Mother
Though you claim (in faith too) that my Truth’s your falsehood!
If all faith’s just faith, how ca...

Deer Rest Glasgow

...Another dreary journey down deaths highway
The daily life of cursed work
Outside Glasgows fair kiss
The free tv shows views as cars driven by the undead squeeze past
The grubby bus window that no...

Snippet

...11/21/16

Just a snippet
Made out in the land of crickets

You either did or didn't
Put forth the effort, time and commitment
Above and below the ridges
Hits and misses
Pushing it to the lim...
