"Light Wings and Gossamer Black"



tears of all the lost years 
ghosts' pearls falling softly gossamer black

caressing your sad heart’s crimson 
its bleeding broken beautiful cracks

a small heaven winks back 
some of your light wings

In every crevice where I look
Every cranny, every nook
Creeping, crawling in their hoards
It’s my world they head towards

Swarming over every leaf
Numbers that defy belief 
Out of holes, from under rocks
Now they’re even in my socks

They’re...

I like cute dogs, poofy dogs, goofy dogs,

Wiggly Giggly Barking dogs, quiet dogs too,

Smart dogs, silly dogs, crazy dogs, lazy dogs,

Large agressive guarding dogs,

Those are just a few,

I enjoy helpful dogs, playful dogs, bashful dogs,

Hyperactive...

Disease that turns into plague

Was out of my control, 
Had to watch the news

Like soft green grasses we have grown,
Less than halve we have our self shown;
Our heads happily swaying in the air,
Physique painting fields in green color;
At the irrigation of the poor farmer,
We bloom a smile brim-filling...

Do you have a garden that you really love?
One that you don’t mind digging in?
You don’t even mind if the Ladybugs eat it
That only kills your aphids dead.

I love my garden!
I love my...

The night ended in smoke.

Sleepwalking fumes 
          rolled over the park,
perambulated in groggy circles,
then got stuck in the tree branches

She eyed open like a broken mirror.
Her mother claimed
that her legs were bowed
so that she could catch the moon
between her black knees on moonless nights.

Tiny mandibles chewed her leather tongue

The Big Crunch Hypothesis 

in times past it all had felt so distant
I was an aphid in an unkempt garden of eden
and my eyes, they were far too dim, too weak

there’s a problem with faith.

Yes, I’ve seen mothers with interlaced fingers
& optimistic minds will god into
sick children.
Faith firm as cinderblocks,
building retaining walls against floods
of adversity.

Yet, I’ve seen fathers with frayed hair
& sweat-stained shirts fall
broken, like...

Today I picked the garden fruit,
To make complete a tasty meal;
And came across an aphid brute.
Today I picked the garden fruit,
Beside my house of holes and root;
To emphasis my scalloped veal.
Today I picked the garden...

The evil Black Widow hatched a wicked plan.

Using a willy worm for weather control,

Just by sending flooding rain and freezing snow.

Bouquets of eastern starlings, raving. 
Reaching out, fledgling saving,
The garden sloth of heaven's hues    
Living in a bath of saffron dews.

Darkend the plough that snails follow
With troughs behind it tumbling hollow;
And up...
