Long By inches Poems

I was forever losing things, and my laughing friends called me a klutz,
Like darker skies misplace buttery sun, when a severe storm develops.

I had once lost the keys to my house, and waited locked out...

When you have a gun and they don’t 
and you're  a cop, it takes a certain kind of cowardice
to squeeze the trigger to kill without provocation men and women
it takes an ugly type of...

Big man
Strong man
Barrel chested
Smiling faced
Hearty man
Where have you gone?
I watched you get into that bed
A few short weeks ago
But you have disappeared
And I don’t know when you went

Your laughter was first to go
That fruity chuckle
That...

Snowy footprints lead the way up the drive to my front door
Through a path of four foot high light up candy canes they soar
Beautiful wreath of glorious design greeting loved ones so dear
Welcome to my...

  Burpsey that's my name,
  Burping is my favorite game!
  Burps are my art,
  Better than a fart!
  Burps are my fancy.
  Forever with a grin,
  They find...

Is it fair that youth is beauty
That the best we can ever be
Is before we are twenty three
Why can't a wrinkle be sexy
Who says grey hairs are icky
Contact lenses are too tricky
Comfort and ease of...

You were my life’s foundation,
There won’t ever be another one, no,
Horrified with my transformation,
I remember you as the light in the snow.

These times we had; we kissed, we cuddled, we had a blast.
The world seemed...

Sins of a father

While younger we were running, to what we did not know.
Quick to love, fast at play, a canvas white as snow.
But as we grew in knowledge and taller by the day
cracks they...

Warriors become philosophical black
Assassins walk on water in fabric magic
Boots move quicker than the wind
Clearly invisible through vampire mirrors
Void of color, empty of human images

The night draws shapes on Ninja Lake
Reflects back vivid in shards...

A MEANING FOR EACH DAY

The long-distance run begins again
From its dawning burst upon
The route of each unique day —
Evolving, exerting, energizing, elating.

The far distances: a crossing from
Vague inspirations to verses, persisting
Like the birds that squawk...

Can you see me?
Can you read the article that is my face, my mood?
I'm morning for the partial creator that has left me wounded. A artery cut has no path to death like the silhouette...

HERO'S DESTINY

Love is hero's destiny, though a blind faith
But a noble cause,
A dedication without premeditated consideration
Which leads to a pleasant misfortune.
Love is hero's destiny, though a mission impossible,
A proud and brave feat
But a phase of...

Death has became a familiar face
To me.
Battlefields filled with carnage and
Mayhem.
I call it home some call it hell.
I find peace where there is destruction.
I feel love in war.
A born soldier, I was made elite.
The spray...

McGee's oldest son, graduated from school
But McGee wished he had more ambition 
Instead of a doctor, a Lawyer or Cop
He became an astute, dietitian 
But, all in all McGee was still proud
And happy his son...

CONSUMMATION

I can smell the perfume of your breathe
My heart baths with the steam of your love
Am a charmist entangled by your portion
Stuck in your honey web fantasy
Just a small intrinsic charm
My expression from your depth...

Some weird stranger came up behind me
with a machete and lopped off my head
It rolled away,
down an embankment,
landing in a ditch of wet soggy leaves.
It was cackling that crazy laugh I have when I am...

We'd scarcely begun our journey
to the sunny south when the sky's roof
descended and hung a shelf overhead.
"God is now joining us," she said.

On the long bridge over the ocean
toward Madeira Beach, an ear-splitting
screech interrupted speech....

It began only by inches.  
Tracing back time 
  all the way down the road, 
   until you re-arrive 
     to the last remembered crossroad. 
And you...

Whisper chases the wind
Along with your eyes that caress my skin
Inch by inches you tore me by the look of a sin
Blanket me with your silly paradigm scheme

Silenced by the judgement of color
You kneed my...

DEMETER CRIES

Sun in center and white wings around
The hundred florae in one stem, cheated; 
My daughter never knew t’was him.
The fragrance was sweet but toxic.
His chariot stood with black steed.
And he took her away to...

A fresh start, a new day, a sun I have never seen
I bounce out of bed, clearing the dog by inches.
She has no idea.

We run toward the front door to feed the cat.
There are new...

Calculate by inches,
reduce it more,
I need it finer,
go to centimeters,
No it is still crude,
get even more sharp,
lets divide the carp,
lets go in microns,
and use the knife,
dig it more and more,
till you have it to the...

Tonight, will you be my pillow?

So warm, I'll not feel cold..
So soft, I'll keep to hold..
So cuddly, I want to on fold..
So precious, I'll not exchange for gold..

I will lay down for eight hours..
Or maybe...
