I am the rot beguiling the saccharine summer hue
I am the self in selfish sorrow, sullying the morning dew
Sickened with the mortal blips of emotion
To fall with the fragility of flesh hipped erosion
Hipped bone beneath browned bandage
Honed the hand hither, 'ncase fickle flesh cannot manage
T'stand aground the mortal vantage
Health t'sickness, worn to wear, not to manage, thy
Breath be dragged'n rancid acid, lipped from the dazed haze of exhaustion
She who had not a gun to brandish, but the naval blade o'self-famish
She who chose to awake, who awoke'n self-loathing
Whose body is irate with the dawned dam break of bile
T'overflow mine own organs, and hinder the words of hungered mind
Breaking the tide of the thrum drum pendulum heart
Shalt th'tounge twist rue th'bile duct of recovery
Drool the drivel of a mere reason 'why?'
And retract the bile of thy sickened mind.
I am to drool the drivel, of love from human kind
Im so tired'f this mortal mortuary
In place of mortal mind.
I am the mind that threatens to die.
And i am the mind, prepared to fight.

A Horse and ale
The brewery had many horses to carry crates of beer
around to small shops, each horse and its driver was assigned a route
The horse I liked was shiny black and had been used for
funerals before
over the years, they got a bit broad hipped and stomach-heavy.
The horse knew the route and stopped outside the grocer`s and waited while
the driver unloaded crates of beer.
The horse sometimes had an ******** thinking of a favorite mare bit
strange animals only know one way and askew foreplay
The driver usually had a bottle of beer at each shop, and when
the round was done, he was in a merry mood and sometimes fell asleep. But the horse knew the way.
After unharnessing the beast, he brushed its coat, checked the hooves
for the horse, the highlight of the day, and gave it a big slice of bread.
So long ago, there had been a devastating war
Jews immigrated to Palestine
and got a piece of land they called Israel; we believed what the papers said
the persecuted people deserved a homeland, but we did not realize that it was.
A historic injustice had befallen the Palestine people and echo that will not
stop before the real Semites get their land back.

A mild spell in winter.
Groundhogs have escaped from their slow dreams.
The hedgerow confirms,
their wide-hipped shuffling as they grub for vittles.
Evening brings one whistle pig to February lawns.
Yet the snow will return, the whimper in the breeze,
will resurrect itself as a howl.
Hey, back to sleep mother groundhog!
Keep the den warm,
small blind eyes are already sensing,
a home in your womb.
Go back and dream of juicy garden carrots -
munchable mouthfuls of daffodils.

Picture of you
in my heart
Face of you
I don't part
In my heart
I write your name
In your heart
I call your name
Picture of you
I have so strong
Smile of you
I miss so long
In my heart
I sing and dance
All my heart
I skip no chance
Every time you come down
My heart beats up and down
Everytime you say "hello" or "hi"
My blood drifts so high
On a grassland we tripped
and hipped,
Rolling over like candlesticks
Down the mangrove we dropped
and dipped
Laughing over our broken lips
We see each other bleeding
Yet weary and giggling
Leaning on each other's back
Clinging to each other without a tack
Picture of you
I laminate
In my heart
I don't hesitate
Then you took my picture too
In your heart
You engrave so true

With eyes a little foggy,
floating hands,
I look to You just to see
You enveloping
everything and me.
When I can, I fix on You,
adoring You
and hoping in what I know of You.
It is enough—
the love I feel and the good I know—
to widely smile to You now Lord.
You’re more than worthy
This is the only
natural thing for me to do
Deep breath in
and rest.
Boldly I look to You with
furrowed brow again
grasping hands
again for….all that resides within…
But You look at me—
smile hidden by chinned hand—
with no words, but a twinkle.
My smile comes unbidden
hipped hands.
and I see…it will be
Your way, Your time wrinkle.
