No! you can’t live
being beaten

chained to a ...

The Manual Clunk

...My typewriter
was not a good typewriter,
its keys were weighty,
you had to use brain muscle to work it,
nobody wanted it.

My son unpacked a home computer.

pane pain pane
sipping on leaves
fall falling
failing to see

leaves livestock
lumbering, conceited
between the pages
their veins throbbing

Stalingrad I

‘tis ego that consumes the despot mind.
While domination seeks its epic spire,
the raging wars from east to west align.
‘Tis mere despite that veils a wai...

Always and forever waiting for you

I have disgraced you and your legacy,
You say my actions were well expected as if  you had made a prophecy.

An ironworker’s tale, in stories retold. 
From Local 46, his strength did shine, 
In New York’s skyline, his work divine.
A skydiver brave, he soared the...

Misguided Power

control, a cloak woven with the thread of fe...

I wish I had

as fine vermilion lines, 
between bleeding moonlight,

sakura springs sang 
 dulcet melodies of 
  a deathless d...

The branch lays across the brook
blocking the water's flow
Some things in life happen this way
A conflict, a blockage, things to say
So much verbalized, but nothing heard

THE AGE OF HUMANS
