Artificial Smile
by Michael R. Burch
I’m waiting for my artificial teeth
to stretch belief, to hollow out the cob
of zealous righteousness, to grasp life’s stub
between clenched molars, and yank out the grief.
Mine must be art-official?zenlike Art?

Bookish Menagerie: A Time Traveler's Library
Toddlers' Exploration:
Cardboard drum and a thunderous beast
With playful roars in tiny fists and feasts.
Fleeting wings glide to dreams just out of reach
Soaring through tales of barnyard Waddles and Squeaks.
Moo! Quack! Giggles tumble and bump.
Flaps...

The Reptilian Anthropocene
"The Reptilian Anthropocene"
The Reptilians
war daily
enrobed in their
stiff distinction suits
rainbow coloured badges
pinned to their lapels
they beat their breasts
and oily palms
profiting from all
the soft-boiled
foxes on the run
cerebral cortex bound
thinking they are free-willed

Rain Showers
The Earth dry and bare; waiting eagerly for the drops of care;
Caught in the hot, steaming summer’s snare;
The flowers and creepers decorating window sills; all look desolate and ill;
As the nature withers...

Jo Jo Part Two
Coercion began
as the ground surrounds the seed
baring life and truth
A kingdom of soil
An army of soiled crickets
A pubescent king
Presenting Jo Jo
the leader of the region
and sire to the throne
Forced to lead the masses
basis chases hatred
Bandaged...

Chapter 12-- Damian and Polly: They Meet At the Club and the Adrianna Reunion
It was a cool winter night. While
Things were heating up inside.
Damian relaxed in the comfort area
While he witnessed, CJ and Julius
Have the dance floor. Damian scouted
Around. There was a young female
Trying for his attention....

The Country Bus
There was a time
In the not distant past
When farmers would sell their wares
Of fruits and vegetables they had planted
To feed the town folks, and balance a budget
In exchange, for clothes, sundries and junket

Unmasking the Script
In borrowed plumes
a masquerade we stage.
Thoughts echo doctrines
passions are preordained.
From broken families
where fractured spirits weep
Mothers of soulful sorrow
With eyes that never sleep.
We inherit canvases
pre-primed with societal skews.
But the brush trembles in...

Dramatic Monologue
In My Father's Hands
A piece of waiting clay adapts
To a sculptor's finite stroke,
Infants heads were shaped by hands
Of older thinking folk.
Eight times a molder in his chair,
A newborn child held near.
Tiny heads-so softly stroked,
By my father's hands so...

Rewinding Revolution
My youngest son
reminds me
We are often so outside voice loud
inside,
we can't hear ourselves think,
LeftBrain language
for RightBrain feeling
You're so inside my personal ego-boundaries
I can no longer hear myself breathe
or Sacred Earth blow
and chirp
and surf
and quake
and storm,

A Noble Tree
The heavens shimmer
as billowy linen-white gossamer clouds slip away, as soft blossoms open for the sun.

Domestic Entertainments
I find my entertainments close to home
as nothing could be more wildly hilarious
and downright curious
than my own complex teenagers
who sometimes speak
and do their math
about what adds up toward our shared
and independent
futures.
Then there are cacophonous...

In corners of the world, where rays smile bright,
There are furry friends, speaking souls in the light.
Cats that prance and dogs that bark,
In every heartbeat, they wait for us with a spark.

Purr, No Chance To Dream

The tumultiest of the bucketiest of the rains have proved not to last.
The cat has chirp-purred his way into a damp-fur snuggle.
