The Festival of African Rain

They dance the rites,
squelching proudly in mud and green pools
of wate...

Poets, bards, sing. Taciturn, red, rotten.
Silver at twilight, seeing stones kept clear.
Seer, grind gear in the severe atmosphere.
Barren lands are kept on ...

Emus

...Emus

giraffes threaten them 
to do so.

The Bull and the Matador

...The Bull and the Matador

I Couldn't Talk About It, So I Wrote a Poem

Ready to be Swallowed

...
A giant road is emerging. My sandy path 
is ready to be swallowed. Gambol, amble, 

ramble, saunter, stride… My way knows
a variety of my gaits. This is a stamped

The Marathon takes place,
For people from all walks of life
Come out to see the race.

Headgear

...Hat
                   Big, small
                  Fit to wear.
            Equestrian helmet
                 Ride to wear
                  'orse gaits
                    Capped...

I’ve written in many months,
Since fall slid into winter snows

With blooming flowers, BBQs
And ladies i...

A Fine Day In Cascais

which I found a little disturbing.
We moved slowly on old legs like weather bitten barges
in a sea of jubilant...

Paws On the Avenue

...Paws on the Avenue

Every afternoon ‘bout half past four
Paddy and I go out the door
No straying from our daily ritual.

Paws on Fido Avenue
Happy tails of sloppy kisses unmuzzled
Parade of c...

Idanceforme

and soul is disgraced
where dogs snooped
