The pipe’s needing more than a tweak.

Who knows how
Net turns ten

As long as bride's gown
Unlike a fairy tale bird

...The argument of silence, absonant,
hammers into the pliant mind it’s hard
nails of craving.—a spirit thusly marred

Echo's Spiral Inward

...An echo is felt, touched, recalled,
it drums against our hearts,
strikes softly upon the ringing

An echo hammers upon an open door,
it is unconcerned with any closeted desires,...

Today, We Remember

...
Today, we remember
the long, scorching march into the tombstone—
eyes like oceans, salt pouring from flesh.

Today, we remember
the cross, 300 pounds heavy,
bent and dipped into  his head.

...My jeans I’d wear, twirling in the air
the cousins, loved those kids; I’d
see them hardly ever, flying, laughing,
rising. Mother couldn’t understand
the wriggling out of the purple dress;

...BLUE CHEESE AND OLD PICKLES

Looking back at the decades gone by
Over the wall at hammers and sickles
Berlin with a certain oldworld appeal
Just the setting for spy novels, I feel
For me, blue ...

June 26

...Violently thrashing and jerking and pulling
It implores me to act
Desperate to stay alive in it's final hour
Reminding me of our pact

...Yellow above the dredged-up earth.
hard hats, husky men
bent on constructive destruction,
Brush burning,
