Streets of Solitude

Remote from cities and the din of men, ~

By limpid stream or flower-lit, sylvan glen,
And would have reared, where non could e'er...

Dapper Drac had a panic attack, and topping off the dread
His trendy boots clashed with his suit, plus his white shirt was stained red
Sure his hair was right, and dynamite, as seen in the mirror

Not In My America
It doesn’t do any good to mind your own business,
if you’re black, you’re going to get knocked down.
Makes no difference if a hundred people beg them,
they’re going to keep you pinned to the ground.
A child...

The Lusitania (Part One)
More than twelve hundred souls
Meet their watery grave.
German U-boat patrols
Spark a fatal shockwave.
This echo of the past
Resounds throughout history.
Rousing war unsurpassed,
Deadly shroud of mystery.
The empire aids Cunard,
Loaning millions in pounds.
Lord Inverclyde toils hard
On deceptions unsound.
They...

It also comes with so much more beauty that's well worth knowing
Snow blockades for snowball fights
Playing king of the mountain on a blanket of white...

Began its civilized nature upon land.
As much as nearby waters flowed & nourished,
Firm ground was needed as most would stand.

Tourette's Majorette
Splintering away from all that matters
Burdens of trust shred my brain to tatters
Gratitude infects while I glimpse your face
Hurdles abound to perk my apathy
Until I'm stung by that buzzing wrath bee
Bold cup full of bliss...

Something New
I’ve seen the beauty,
I’ve seen the devil
I’ve been around the purity,
I know why Cain killed Abel
There are blockades in our life
There’s right and wrong
So we wish we could ignore
But we don’t...

Instinct Outside of Context
walking down the street
driving in the car
riding on the train
flying on the plane
an eye for more than just
the routine comes about
like a pleasant smelling incense
filling the room &
suddenly the carnivorous within
makes sense of its...

Journey on Jericho Road
Shattered grace in jagged nights on the road to Jericho;
Ev’ry step and ev’ry breath are filled with shame

Don'T Bother Me
Don't bother me with your living
voice on the phone,
I have no time!
Don't come to my house at all,
I have no time.
Don't send me poetry or emails

I have no time.
You see, I...

Deep into the world of mystery I find my heart buried
Until from tear-filled eyes my mind pours deep water
A sprinkled light so distant somehow comes to view,
But I am stuck in miserable muddle and I...

Too Focused On Health
Retirement comes, I'm at loose ends,
But blessed to have some loyal friends
From work, from church, from family,
And tennis, gym less formally,
A men's group too for two decades,
My social life had no blockades.
I hadn't started writing...

Earth was peaceful
In the time of remembering
Where the pasture looks so flourish
Childreen roam around the green-field
And they Cheers in an urban glory
Every where looks so beautiful in winter
Pitter-patter falls...

A Storm of Tears
What is it like to cry?
All those blockades of mind made stone,
A river of emotions held beyond,
Making its own gateways through it all,
To come finally flowing out.
Down soft material,
Dropping to the ground,
Flooding everything around.

A little blue dress had won
her smile had left mine floored

The Wall
Wherever I come
At home
Or outdoors
No shore nor apple
No cloud nor maple
Only boundaries to appall
The inexorable wall
Neither dream nor dance
You are allowed
Lance upon the wall
Stops you from being a sky
Where you...
