Fungi


I like my fungi
sauteed in butter 
in a pan with a chopped clove
of garlic, parsley and plenty
of salt and pepper.
Or sliced and simmered
in chicken stock
with arborio rice
and topped with parmesan
cheese in a creamy
mushroom risotto.

I like the musty,
earthy smell
that some fungi have,
the exquisite delicacy
of the gills, 
the soft, spongy feel,
the variety of shapes 
and colours that

Finding Moments

Moving through tightly woven groves of young, thin, oaks
the air sits heavy on the skin like stepping into a sauna
wet earth mingles with decaying leaves, this odor of familiarity.

Trails walked more than just a time or two
a few look the same while a few testify that time changes all things, eventually.

Sticky sugar sand scatters across

Filled With Fungi

So many mushrooms have sprung up
I’ve never seen before.
My yard is filled with fungi
In varieties galore.

The bright red flat ones you can’t miss,
The tall ones, creamy white;
The brownish kind with puffy tops,
The beige of little height.

Some tiny yellows try to hide
Near coppers like a penny.
In prior years with not much rain,
I don’t remember any.

I wonder

Airsped's Destiny

Once an old man described me about a lad
Who, when he ?rst saw was a six year old child 
Roaming to get some work to make his tummy fed.
Fed up not able to get work, started searching for a slice of bread 
Atleast which was not directly thrown into the dump
Removing the part which is

Fungi Fear


Prophetic year of the mushroom
Day one message: 
nuclear madness is on the bloom
Usher in the house of bedlam
into a R.S.V.P. underground shelter mansion,
settle into concrete bunker chairs 
for the half-shelf life walking dead
Winter black sky 
illuminates the windowless rooms
See the global guests all dressed
in glowing diplomatic words
of gloom and doom
Dust off the portrait of the

FUNGI
You came as a miracle from  
universe to earth from 
a universe to earth 
First:
we called you what?
Whatever until you told us better
was instilled inside our medulla obbligato – 
though you favored our brain, 
looked like a medulla obbligato.
Mushrooms only communicates with roots tentacles and spores;
Mushroom you bring good news for those whom pay

Blue Sky Fungi

One day I'll write some thing
That will make this planet sing
It may not be perfect 
For anybody, even me
We'll have to wait and see...

If the blue sky fungi 
Sail below the window
Of my jet airliner
You'll know I wrote something
That made this planet sing!

One day I'll be King
And someone else will sing
Songs I weave from words
Like

Cacti Fungi and Magpie

More than one cactus plant is called a cacti
Must follow that a bunch of fungus are called fungi
Sounds kind of Asian
If I may be so brazen
The only thing left that rhymes with cacti is magpie
