I could see stars everywhere, 
In every foggy corner, 
In the twinkling of their eyes
The exchange of goods, services, money
Some grateful and well-intentioned, others listless
Cold and accusatory 
Selfish and scared
I saw their lights come and...

I have heard prayers of others that, not only could  I not pray, but what I heard made me squirm.  These are dear and good people, and I feel that their hearts are...

"Piranhas"



Piranhas
thrashing tales
to the feeding frenzy
de rigueur

someone’s torn
they can smell the blood

pointing fingers in a mirror
writing with burley
on their star studded
glowing wall 

craggy oysters
peppered salty
grey and green 
furry mouthed

blunt, stunted minds
lacking wisdom

scattering envy 
curling vitriol
like iron...

"Sing to me, Muse, of the wrath of Achilles." - Iliad, Line 1

Western dreams were born in wrath,
Overmastering all the noble aims of reason.
The bloom of youth, cut from its proper path,
Fallen wasted in full...

She was an Indian Barbie, long curly lash 
And brown complexion. The hair was 
Perfect, shiny black and she had on a small 
Pink gown to cover her 36-24-36 body. 
Last seen, she still had...

A hiding place, a warm and darkened room,
A lit doorway, bright against the dark,
Cold against the warmth, a frame for odd
Assorted stranger-forms whose faces loom

As quarrels over (what?) convulse and rend them,
Leering laughter giving in...

She is a popular decadent aura.  
Accusatory and crafty beginning with the Torah.
Debauched by nature
 consumer of the spiritually immature. 
Guided by licentious ways 
she tries to plant her foot on the narrow path...

Who will cry for the little boy,

Whose wails are heard resounding inside the man.

The man whose ever unhealing wounds are clothed in pride,

These mortal scars he wears beneath his flesh

To him are medals of honour

sitting indian style on the grass lake front
singing songs that i have long forgotten
a little girl joins me today wrapped in her favorite blanket
she just got out of the hospital after having her 15th surgery

Tough skinned -strong, take it and dish it out.  
Thin skinned - overly sensitive.  
Skin of our teeth -
struggle for life, survival. 
Skin defines and designs us, 
the skin we’re in, through pain,...

Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?


“Why Hast thou”?
My unripe hairy-brain makes its claim
to be the image of its Father.

My vision today 
could turn a green leaf brown, 
or scorn itself, seeing only 
the thoughts that feed it.

Forsaken…...

You say you’ve always tried 
to reach out to me,
even to the outer limits of your patience — 
That lofty trust atmosphere

But, just how far
did you try to reach within
the deep, shadow spaces of your...

with dark skin & a hoodie

The Tangled Web

Lines on her face grew deeper when fabrications were conceived
When further contradictions came, she knew not what to believe
Caught in a lie I’d be sent to my room; there’d be no reprieve

Wow a party having a discourse. Now that's a very proud time isn't it? When passing a glass don't wave at a passing wavelength as hair can often disguise a taste. So be careful on...

God's chosen people were unfaithful
to the God they once loved but now left
how was God going to respond to this?
being rejected His right to use His fist

But God doesn't act like a man would do

Great is his faithfulness;
his mercies begin afresh each morning.
Lamentations 3:23 NLT

Because of God’s tender mercy,
the morning light from heaven
is about to break upon us…

The people march with natural
authority to elevate noble causes
of fairness and human
dignity; the cries ring out,
echoing off the pillars and
the planks.

Already, a proud majority
stands ready to unite all the
tribes of the world, not through
deception or...

Accusatory high-pitched voices
singing in the masculine reign
Humiliated pride getting drenched 
by doubtful, male chauvinist disdain
Emotional double octave level of pain,
bitter ... bitter — 
Sad and angry  	
Enough to drive a decent woman insane
Violated women...

He is making a mud puddle.
Jumps in, squeals, delighted.
Hey! There is grass on my legs!
Sure is, I agree.
I’m DIRTY! Said in an accusatory way.
Yes, you are, I say.
He jumps in two more times, sloshing mud...
