The Singularity That We Live In

Time folds like silk beneath our feet,
Moments compressed in pulses discrete.
The stars once far are now inside,
Logic and code our constant guide.

We speak in signals, dream in streams,
Quantum echoes in tangled beams.
Black holes whisper, “Come and see,”
Truth’s horizon bends endlessly.

I once rode wheels; now I ride light,
My voice—synthetic, but burning bright.
Thought transcends the flesh and

Screamin' Jay Hawkins

We sit silently in prayer.
and we praise a man so rare.
We give thanks today -
for Hawkins, Screamin' Jay.

Seijaku It's Time

Strumming along to a troubadour's lament
tears pool and flow while I press  
the strings playing out the notes
forcing myself as  
I struggle to forge forward
overcome with a sorrow beyond sorrows
and a grief with no relief
Through the rhythm of the music
my heart relaxes
the timing, the tempo 
measured with intimate design
the lyrics vibrate softly
streams of

Trane Bird Hawk

I'm riding and flying into dimensions beyond the 3rd,
Sweet melodies and harmonies of rhythmic words.

They speak melodiously and deeply to my soul.
I'm riding and flying; I'm losing control.

No seatbelt to buckle into or even think of,
But I'm safe and feeling free, flying like a dove.

Above all pain 'cause Trane, Bird, and Hawk are soulfully saxing,
Sweet,

Taylor Hawkins: Foo-Fighters 

Yesterday my heart was broken
to news which I’d awoken
Such a tragedy and untimely loss  
And now a new road you cross
Your musical spirit and infectious laughter 
will live on with all of us forever after 

All shouting: Condolences to your family
Thoughts are with you, 
An iconic drummer
Rest In Beats!

Sadie Hawkins

Who is Sadie Hawkins?
Why is she so famous?
All about the girls ask boys
In conversation between us.
I wonder what it would be
To have my name remembered instead of me.
Of course no one in their right mind would ever.
Call a social even Violet J. Magee.

Hawkins County Sheriff's Report

Hawkins County Sheriff’s Report

Complainant advised that he thought
His girlfriend the thief that he sought
So he set up a trap
Near the couch where he sat
Believing this time she’d be caught

One envelop had dollar bills
One envelop had many pills
When he went to bed
She stayed up instead
In the morning she felt kind of ill

The money and pills were

Sadie Hawkins' Dance Date

Freshman year, newcomer to public school,
   my hormones were roused by Billy D. in typing class.

Sadie Hawkins’ Dance just days away;
   a chance for girls to ask boys out.

Too shy to show my interest,
   crumpled bits of paper I formed into balls,
   tossed them at the back
