Long Adrian Poems

Where has the American cowboy gone, 
Did he ride off into the dust trails of history,
A faded figure, melting into the last horizons sunset.
Nay, unbridled the mustangs run free now,
No riders lasso, snaps against the...

"The Pavane" 

Autumn leaves
whistle nonchalantly
along the left-behind

paths of serendipity
hesitantly touch fingers
lightly for a while, tipping

lost in the wastelands
winter beckons 
love unconditionally

magic listens
and arrives
in the laps go-lightly

of racing hares
tossed salad years
and marshmallow dreams

of servile tortoise
pleasantville sown...

The duffle bag strapped to the rack
The air was crisp when we started out at dawn
In the early morning hours we were gone 
Down the road with the wind on...

Rocky Mountains

by Adrian Sutalo

North Park valley where
outdoor adventures await,
Great Lakes to Rocky Mountains 
journey, to seal a cervidae’s fate.

Roads past endless cornfields stretched toward the horizon,
acres tens of thousands of rolling golden prairies,
The burning smell...

not given to doing much work

With a house full of sons and
daughters as well he found it easy to shirk

His sons ran the saws in the forest

My name's Rocky Balboa,
Some say I'm old as soil;
An' if you call me punchy,
My blood begins to boil!

Mickey's gone to heaven,
Apollo and Adrian too;
Now I'm stuck with Paulie,
A bum without a clue!

I'll wake up in...

And squids with arms longer than oars
But there's just no fright, like the site, in the night
Of the ship named the Adrian Dorr

when you want to talk 
about the weather
politics
multiple orgasms
the cost of human flesh

call me

I am the planet’s
most informed citizen
I know people, mister
I have information
I know the local butcher
at times I feel his knife so close...

Adrian Monk
was in a funk,

Till he got
assistants.

But this particular case
held him in a space,

With which he felt
resistance.

That I can't blame
I feel the same--

Phobia of everything
dental--

Can you, too, admit
while you had to sit,

To a dentist ever...

Determining what this special seed could blossom to be.

And you are feeling really low,

 angular signs and sinews fall in the late

up on Clement’s
we could see everything
we could see the stars
an elevator door opened
and took us to space
where the answer was yes

so we bought that bouquet
wrapped in the news

The wisest and wittiest of all men

One two three, one two three,
Open your eyes for me,
Look at the apple tree
Under the sun.
Can you remember them?
Suzie and Adrian?
Philip and Miriam?
Even your son?
Grandchildren come to you,
Hoping you’d see them too,
But if they only...

People enjoyed laughing at Adrian Monk
  And his obsessive/compulsive disorder
Now I'll open the lid, come out of the trunk
  I'll be a neat freak for my life's remainder

Like Mr. Monk, I can't tolerate...
