Have you ever heard of Raul?
“yea he’s cool, he’s straight. Goofy’
Have you ever heard of me, I'm Raulito.

Filth, dirt, odour and smell
I see garbage piled up everywhere
Who will step forward? Who will care?
Is our work just to stare?
We say we love our country
And we can sacrifice anything for it
But nobody realizes a...

After the summer sun, once the waves have had more than they can swallow,
a melancholic mood looms large, wherein the floundering victims wallow.

The sudden descent into silence hits harder than the outburst of noise before...

It happens over there,
a suburb, a state or half a world 
or more away from where I live 
in a quiet street with roses and hedges 
hanging over front fences 
with newly planted trees spaced

I am a land called, “America”.
I am called, “Educated”; 
a “Super Power”,
but, I don’t feel “Super” or “Powerful”…
I am drained.
I wear the scars of human nature;
ignorance and greed.

I wear the scarlet blemishes of my own...

The world we live in-live died not knowing what killed it

Look at our hands they are bleeding, proving we did it
Over and over we read the...

THE UTOPIAN DREAM BABY

She is in darkness and beautiful
What I dream of my Utopian dream baby

In the future I wish to see her born
As  a very big mansion of mine on the moon

Today I found you worm
Diabolic
In an old book's page
Vitriolic
In mnemonic rage
I squirmed frantic
For my chewed up words.
I thought I was breeding butterflies
Not a strange infestation.

Soft ugly stage
Before the swatter and swatting
Multiplied to wage
An internecine gossiping
About...

Substitute happiness

Buy new iterations of the same

Improved, your life will be
from promises of acquisition guarantee
Ersatz ecstasy ... 
cankered desires rotting the spirit from within
Manufactured joy
bought with paper and plastic...

His incendiary comments
Ignited a conflagration
Concerning the dangers
Of “smokeless” tobacco

It’s the same look
Like the one the dogs get
When they hear the leash rattle
The eyes focus and scan
The attitude
Takes on an urgency.

That tree awaits.
Who might have been...

TOO LATE?

The temperature’s rising day-by-day;
We pump too much carbon into the air.
It belches from chimney stacks dark and grey,
Exhaust fumes from travelling here and there.
Herds of cattle emitting foul gasses,
Thinning the ozone to let in...

The Carnivores Next Door

rate the worth and pleasure
	of their morning 
by the number of shattered lives
	they return home dragging

at times there’s broad smiles
	and load boasting
gathered friends
	who lend to the barbarism
their congenial
	conspiratorial toasting

revelling in the blood...
