Post-Its

...Post-its, coat the
Brain I keep controlling 
sticking to my skull 
Without holding their notice 
Maybe I have spiraled out of focus
Leaving all my thoughts to obliterate my homage 
It's really ...

Premium MemberState of Insanity

...I’ve doodled and dawdled in Delaware,
Piddled in Pennsylvania without care,
I’ve been to New York and Alabama,
Michigan, Missouri and Montana. 
I’ve travelled in every state, my friend,
And I ca...

The Last Page

...You were like the last page of an old notebook
Which I doodled on and scribbled on
Torn off 
So that others couldn’t see it 
Couldn’t peep in
To the place I displayed my soul on
A chapter bette...

My Everyday Companion

...

In the hallowed halls of college,
Where dreams bloomed like wildflowers,
I walked with a pencil in my pocket,
And a book cradled close to my heart.

My friends, oh dear companions,
We laugh...

A Walk In the Forest

...I punched you out for what it was
That small space we call real estate
Beyond the Island of doom the cock doodled at noon
Then I saw that time for you 
Became more urgent 
More urgent than purch...

...**  Mother Nature Draws the Dawn  **


Already, 
Dawn sets off 
This longitude’s waking,
Displaying nearby trees
Into their scribbled silhouettes
In shades
Of gray with blasts of black masse...

Scrawl

...Slush coated figures
have been drawn on the sidewalk,
dribble people, their disjoined limbs
twisted into guesses to be pecked over
by hammer driven beaks.

After the hard-packed snow
acrobats ...

Higgins

...Higgins was the worst Math teacher,
and that year I was his worse student.

Higgins had loose blubbery lips.
When he taught long division or algebra
his words were full of spit
and phlegm.

Behold the Workings

...A spider thin calligraphy, a varicose script
upon the shallow sheen of mortality.

Are these the genetics of a divine act
arriving as green stems,
weeds and blooms all in a tangle?
A scratchy n...

Doodles

...My notebooks were once filled with doodles
Adorning the margins; in class
I doodled when bored at a lecture,
When minutes took hours to pass.

My squiggles and boxes repeated;
They weren’t wort...

Collection

...She collected her names, family’s names,
friends’ names, strangers’ names,
and everything which had a name.
Her mind was like a basket,
able to compress all the names to threads;

'til a fat man stepped into the fray
He said the river meets the shore
like it has always done before
So Polly doesn't do that

...Wending her way westward, wafted on whispering wings
   Sailing serenely southward, slithering past secluded scenes
Nudging northward, noticing narrow, noctilucent moonbeams
   Edging effortlessly...

...A flood of grackles,
black-leafing the tree
who seem to’ve forgot
that its not
Winter;
it’s Spring and everything
is about to flower.

Eva says they are starling
and they may be.
She says t...

Existentialism Crisis: Venus and Mars

...For a long time I've questioned the phrase
"Women are from Venus, while Men are from Mars".
As my science classes memory stands, Venus

while Mars is a planet dest...
