Tozzath

Pellucid pachyderms wade across
the purpling River Manjees
and Tozzath watches from the bank, 
the seat of his maroon pantaloons soaked with mud,
his nostrils flaring with the fragrance of ombadalias,
whose lacey petals flutter
like the wings of long-dead...

Derivatives With Limits

Working over Birk’s Works and other tunes my saxophonist admires—
Cheesecake, Blackbird—for the theoretical, applied mathematics
inside an abstract, audial harmonization of the Big Bang and The Fall.

The derivative reveals the slope of the tangent along the...

Big Wild

I watched her at times, gazing into another world
Her head was past dwelling in the clouds
Way up high, and at times she would fall back to the ground.
She wore stars in her hair, milky way’s...

The Hen House

Cooped within ancient bodies, this inhabitant 
dwells amongst an elder net 
of crabby, crotchety, curmudgeonly claque 
of old folks, only a portion of population I met
which achey, flaky, kooky motley crue 
disgruntlement fed as peevish...

Learn to share, O Bleeding Hearts

A serpentine row of pillars of stone  
Winding through farms, woods and much weeded track
Like suture marks upon earth's bordered skin,  
And white-washed, each proclaiming its number in black.  

Stones planted to...

Ominous Nighttime Foray

Crow's claws carrion campy carping
nsync nocturnal teenage mutant ninja turtles
analogous to scuttling

brandishing sharp small scabbard swords

delightedly digging daggers deep

rotting roadkill repulsively reeking

Carp Fishing In Winter

Why do I do it, It’s hard to explain
This obsession that’s driving me slowly insane
The dark hours seem endless, the boredom intense
You would think at my age I’d have more common sense

Changing Our Attitude

A foggy morning with dreary overtones
Can cause the spirit to spiral downward
Eliciting slow-moving, guttural groans
A foggy morning with dreary overtones,
It makes us feel like decrepit, old crones
Roadblocks in the way of moving forward,
A foggy morning...

Aesthetic Fille

I’m drifting away from who I once was
Being a quick silver,
Turning into a hypocrite
Carping about the sense of becoming void
And contorted of turning pedantic

But then I sense a chime
A drone reminding me of the propaganda
Realising...

The Picture

The picture 
She bends over the lace making table
Fingers swollen knuckles hard and round
Silent conversation hands to cotton, cotton to hand
Weaving and wefting
 Curling and carping
Each lazy loose strand.
Arched back and shoulders
Eyes squinting to see

Her Inner Dialogue

An inner voice narrated her life;
It began to chronicle every happenstance,
each ordinary event
as if there were indeed a story unfolding
toward a nagging judgement of her being.
It chastised, painted her as a victim.
The Teller had always...

Complaints

There’s nobody except a saint
Who never utters a complaint
Though there are those who seem to thrive
On kvetching to keep them alive.

And do not ask about the food!
The light’s too...
