Long Audited Poems

"The Will to Survive" 

It was a peaceful time
back then in the dreams
that were once 
our prepossessing future.

sands of time 
dragged under our bare feet 
while the crystal clean warm ocean
of life that once was,...

This chap iz a life
long student – groan fizzy
(from being protean entity
at least sustained along minimally
cerebral Mohorovicic continuity

under the rod measured
by lizard rule 

the capacocha 
children of complacency
dumbed down, some
thorns, uppity, removed

heads counted...

And blindly proceed to invest in a dubious deal.

He began quite small with...

Retreated in the darkness
Of broken fears,
Your palace found broken
At the bottom of a well.
Well,
What good is it anyhow?
To allow the sweet surge
Of electricity and sweat
After decades of anticipation.

The most anticipated 
That has ever...

"The Auditing"

We are all numbers
aren’t we? continually,
we are audited daily,

we audit each other
regularly 
but we aren't regular 

we are the noun

correctness

you could burn us
like a word that
rhymes...

When you wake up and realize that your meds have forced you into a four and a half hour cat nap- 
You sit up and crack your neck. Yawn. 
Look out the window, and see...

The taxman called: “You’re being audited”, he said
I needed that like a hole in the head
The doctor said twins; it was triplets instead
I needed that like a hole in the head
My wife said: “No more...

Speak no ill of our 3 letter government agencies;
they are always watching out for our rights,
they are working for us.

Don't you know you are just peddling enemy disinformation!
Don't you know you are just repeating
conspiracy theories?
Nothing...

The laws of life
audited and penned by life itself
laws, like giving
must, be balanced
by it's receiving end

The laws of taking
is rated by the replacing
as with light is with darkness
or the moon with gravity
and restful activity

The laws...

They were stopping everyone;
made us answer their questionnaires.
We were told that there were 
no right or wrong answers,
but weeks later - a letter.

Apparently the socially correct
had a beef with me.
A ham sandwich had recently been...

for my Mother


After the failed attempt to kill herself,
She gaveled up a parliament of owls,
Repurposing every cabinet and shelf
To house her blinkless treasury of fowls.

What comfort came from a gross of hooded eyes
Strewn through her...
