Why?
...All the sounds ever uttered,
arise from that one first,
petulant cradle song
of
'why'?
A 'why'
reprised and voiced,
with infinite variations.
‘Mysterious ways’ test us constantly.

drowning seas
...Drowning seas in eyes
with rising moon
in lipped up skies.
The night is waking up
in shadows of moonlight
in arms of seas embraced.
Eyes don't dream at all
only the seas
rise to dreamy ey...

Undocumented Notes On the Aftermath of a Suicide
...Backward word exceptions for me
from mothers cold lipless tongue drips lies,
White and stagnation
void of a life.-
Is nothing sacred mother?
My mother?
Is nothing pure?
Even babies defec...

Reflections of a Wandering Mind
...Wain moon waits
Silver cloud
Pillowed head,
Dreams, dreamed,
The sun awakes
Silent mind listens
Lipless whistles,
Dance leaves dance,
Crayon rainbow
Melting pot spilt,
Burnt sugar in Maple ...

Thalassophobia, I Love You

right beneath this lake of sawdust
where underwater towns
have gone astray
and I can hear the harpies
the bagpipes

To My Mourner
...Turn not deaf to the stern clamor,
Frozen upon my mourner’s lip;
Whose cry has weakened the desire in me,
Desire to rest in the arms of slumber;
Greeting my open eyes, tired,
For an infinite slu...

its voice deep and mellow like smooth satiny chocolate,
"There is more, much more than good and evil,"

Time's a Wasting
...Science improves things, so they say,
can't prove it by me, take the clock
once it swung, and cockco's played
now it's silent, no tick or tock.

The Still Standing Stone

As its waters dropped
Descending delicately
As a fountain's flood
If parched from thirst
Would have timelessly
Tasted the dr...

Heartbreak On a Boulder of Pain

RELAPSE
Waiting for she who will bring me my heart
I lay on my sofa
Arms outstretched
Reaching for my heart far astride.
I try hard sweeping a cursory look round my enclave
My neck stiff; life is ...

Random Sin
...In pinnate physicals, the thing,
moves like a stark terror
savagely. A primal fear

See white of bone through pale thin skin
Aware men cold below sod wear
A skinless face with lipless grin.
Dark sockets deep instead of eyes
Where daisy bulb...
