The Highways and the Byways
The Highways and the Byways
By Franklin Price

(Inspired by Nancy McIntyre Stepp)
The highways and the byways
Of this life in which we've grown
Bring back many memories
Of places we have known
The Interstates most boring
They bypass most...

The Magazine Bus -- New Orleans August 1963
I stood and cried in The Magazine Bus,
Deep in New Orleans, in the city rush,
as it plowed and choked along
like a curved-back dinosaur
wheezing through the swampy ways,
rattling electric wires in a maze
of strangling...

We Owe It To Our Doctors

To prevent disease rather cure
Cure and control if that happens at all;

Quiet Down the Mountain - Dogging the Watch
The morning sun’s oppressive; a nasty b*tch in heat on Rizal Avenue,
Where vendors hawk their cigarettes, baloot, and dog meat barbecue.
The jeepneys buzz the intersection like a hornet’s nest,
But it’s quiet down the mountain once...

Where Do I Come From
From my mother's womb I yelled into the room,
mattress on the living room floor,
my bro I replaced as the youngest, his face
as he screamed and ran out through the door.
I tell you (no fooling) my...

Bengaluru Now, I Witness You!
Silicon city
That pulsates,
Both day and night,
The Tech Capital
And the sky, veiled
With urban haze
And dense, sprawling cityscape.
Grey city of its
Gridlocked roads
Surrounded by
Towering skyscrapers
Inspiring
The coder
And the entrepreneur.
Glass city
Of its
Modern offices
And its apartments
Compact and sleek,
New and bold,
A striking,...

Robot-Assisted Surgery

You'll remove all your clothes. Naked before the ladies, nurses
Who have seen it all before. Mainly remember you're not unique.

It was ‘81, after we left Fort Lauderdale,
Hoping for happy Bahamas vacation tale

Crossing a Continent At Night
Down a runway skybound
to cross a continent,
see from a window
a city fall away
with bright beads
strung along a coast,
then turning inland,
clumped townships
shrinking to solitary lights
sunk far apart
into hours
of featureless dark.
Disconnected
from the...

Blue Solitude
The night lingers, yawning,
Stretching its limbs across the sky;
It lies there so silently, so languidly
As if awaiting the early rays of morning
To come by- I wake-
I wake to the sounds of silence and

I see a vision of a parched earth.
Geosmin scent ascends;
or descends. Transference
between reality and surreality.
My mind is soaked in soil microbes,
no shower sensation in sight.
Today it might...

Well perhaps I should talk about foreclosure,
Let’s see, at first as it begins to happen
it feels like your life is being flattened
By a big ole dozer.
It is an especially dire , disheartening fate,

I stand and watch the exodus of ants
Through sig sag tracks, they wind their way

Never deterred by hurdles on their way
Are they fleeing from an imminent danger?
Or are they on their...
