Long Chromium Poems

Through pristine glass observed
autumnal leaves a scatter
the litter of the season
to dishevel and clutter up the garden

Sweep the crumbs away
lay polish to the smudged and smear
for glinting tiles speak ever more clear
to build the walls...

I remember being a little remote control. My chassis 
was sound and I was beeping all the time. My handlers 
were amused to drive me around. I was happy to please them.
It made me feel...

With glorious primordial certainty
  the sun will rise, the sun will set;
likewise you languish knowing what you're about,
  you know what is and isn’t so;
  yet, ultimately, you don’t.
Chained to the chromium...

The equivalent of a cosmic flat tire, the star collector overheated again.
Should've topped off the subzero heat transmogger back at Stuckey's.
Yep we have 'em too.., who doesn't need a Pecan Log Roll, now and then.

When I was skinned

I made a little list-

Call it (Something Here) :

It started out,

'I am getting older,

what should I do? '

Like go on the road,

Actually join the Legion or

Take vows for the ashram of Guru...

The night sky is a vibrant green with a yellow haze,
Ever since the dropping of the bombs there is no more blue for us to gaze.

The fields lay barren, no crops can they produce, it’s...

Lugubrious blue mood skies funereal  and morose shed raindrops,
they unleash tableau vivant torrent’s wet tranche,
blessing,  bane or boon from vault of heaven,
damp pearl blob  bewitching moisture mellow morph form, 
the stuff of...

The see-saw backsides of obesity traverse across the promenade
  Led by bustling torpedo breasts thrusting through the hustling throng;
Past tarnished chromium espresso bars, burger vans with frying lard,
  Ice cream parlours, sagging deckchairs...

Defining chromium weep and cold-steel whine, 
This endless tragedy that is love, 
Tripping a corsage of candy entrails and dust-cake,
Streamers across the floors of emotional residency.

So she reposes, pretty with poise, her porcelain chin
Resting on...

The Elements of Love

Hellen, my dear friend,
Rain canceled our plan,
But my heart will not bend,
For I know I'm a fan.

Your honesty, like Gold,
Sparkles through your soul,
Your love, like Silver, bold,
Makes me feel whole.

You're the Oxygen...

Embryos sing saddle-sore sonatas, beneath 
the despot eaves of chromium skies, reflecting 
black light down upon the harbours where 
ambition claws the air and slowly dies; and 
nighthawks scream a siren song of sadness, for...

Day's finishing gloss glimmers on horizon's purlieu
Rich orange truffles filter into milky fondue
Fiery sun's last gasps bleed through ethereal flue
With dusk's graying mantle, at steeples' crest 
rendezvous
A suspended bridge; Day's beams, Night's seams to glue
A...

Down there, on the shell-coarse beach in a furnace of sand
The sea writhed and almost boiled at the shore,
Barefoot we walked, with her hand in my hand
No girl had ever driven me more.
She dry-licked her...

Over the confines of the cliffs
in a cloud of crystalline haze
in the midst of a tsunami of whistling

skyline shadows in golden amber
hues ooze into the ocean
triumph against craving

waves of fairy spirits
Pearl stone sparkles in sundrops

Corundum,
Naturally occurring
Aluminum oxide,
Second only to diamond
In hardness
Colorless when pure.

Used to make sandpaper
And emery cloth
To smooth rough edges
And round sharp corners.

Add a touch of chromium
And you have a ruby.
Vibrant red gives it worth.
Add some iron and...
