pictures letters remember that 
I remember so well that achy

Get Outside Yourself

I know I need to get outside myself.
The more I complain, and focus on my sore gums, tender knee, and achy shoulder, the more griping I do, the more I suffer.
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! The pain...

I Bear-Ly Survived

The beauteous days of summer were here at last,
And the primetime of nature was coming so fast!

We sat on the porch, watching a lazy day go by,
With no interesting views, to gladden our eyes.

Then one...

My Love

"MY LOVE"

Who is the one beside me 
holding up my weight? Always 
there no matter how much is 
on her plate! Her hair so pretty 
with that shiny Auburn gleam, 
her eyes a soothing brown...

Ode To Amsterdam

They ventured in to Amsterdam to have a little break.
Alas it all went very wrong when they tried a slice of cake.
Before that fateful moment it had all gone very well,
Dinners, walks and seeing sights...

My Very Bad H3n2-Flu Dreams

Achy with flu, but to tired to drift into a deep sleep, my body stalks the corridors of twilight, moving between being awake and floating on dreams.  Time is a stranger to physics and...

Long Walk Home

like cataracts
on a grey old dog
a light fog lay over the low, amber moon
a stiff breeze blowing
but next to the ground only
so the layer of fog stayed put above
eerily ... hauntingly
I had walked the dirt...

Consider Me

Here I lie in bed again, 
Awaiting my next meal.
A worker enters in my room, 
As if it's no big deal.

What ever happened to courtesy? Just a little knock.
Do you think I'm just a vegetable,...

The Four Stages

Not a care in the world, just run around with your friends.
Doodling on the walls
Playing house with your dolls.
Chasing boys around with cooties
But only those you think are...

Who Would Resist?

The telephone rang, it was early dawn
The birds were unusually silent
Words came through like lightning bolts
‘Swallow me earth!  My pitiful plea
Scorched heart set afire!
Inconsolable, I lay upon the floor
With just one wish – to...

Re: the Vintage Book of Contemporary American Poetry

It's inauguration day, January 20, 2021.
I could be at home, watching the TV presentation
pomp and pageantry. But old, achy, onerous and 
anxious, bladder full with no toilet near, I wait 
in a chilly car in...

We see the light of the world

They appear in a rainbow swirled

Like an old telephone the message is sent

Why do I hang onto your every word?
When I know I am merely the shame you play
The controlled part of the wanting to be loved game!

Strangely

"Strangely"

Withdrawals getting shaky
I can't think or see straightly
I'll stay stuck or I'll break free
They thought I was just being shady
It made me
Or was able to break me
A change in me
Or still the same me

An Empty Cup Will Never Run Over

If your cup is empty all your life,
And you never seeks it's fill,
Then you are passing up good things,
And denying lifelong thrill.

If your cup is halfway full it may,
If things become quite shaky,
Turn and tip...

Golden Years

Our so called golden years are called golden, can anyone tell me why
They are anything but 'golden', the reality makes me want to cry

Welcome to glasses, grey or white hair and false teeth....oh my

Oh, There Are Days

There are days when I look out the sill and see black, 
nothing seems right and I see nothing staring back.
Oh, there are days.

Sometimes I lose the will to write without inspiration,
