With loud yelling on the sidewalks, and cawing crows up above,
And my poor aching...

Shattered dreams of New Canaan

no longer land of the free home of the brave,
original rightful occupants hoodwinked, petrified,
where diseases xeroxed
ambushed, crushed, extinguished,
squashed, trashed, wampashed,

violent unwelcome intruders
celebrated acquisition or outright
annexation of...

Broken Verses

The sun set low
And my heart split asunder
The wind blew hard with traces of slow
Darkness spread around and pierced deep under
My blooming valley of roses
Causing them to wrinkle and writher
Poison seeped through my immaterial illusionary...

The Perambulator

It squeaked as it slowly rolled out the door
Trundled out the rusty gate
Over the sunken wooden bridge 
and onto the sandy sidewalk.

Spinning Daydreams

I ambled in shadowed life, secluded in shrouded night,
afraid to be seen by day, fearing glowering looks in light.

Blind Views

I stare at the world through slats in the blind
Which are partly obscuring the dazzle at times
There's nothing particular to spot there today
As even the birds seem to have all flown away

some mysterious dish,
