Every year In Robin Hood Country Nottingham
There in October, they hold. What is known, as the Goose Fair. It's huge. and goes back centuries, straining the Middle Ages, perhaps even longer.

My dreams were of the dire Queen
I had allowed her reign over me, callousing my heart,
She was inside me, laughing
Having crawled in
My walls closing, as she filled my soul
We were one, yes for a time,...

battering over rough waves  and endless seas
that came to the restless shores more than fifteen years ago
the temperature has risen to over a hundred and fifty...

 Listen to the 
ticking hands of twilight,
close your eyes,
while I take your thoughts
   to an ivory reverie of 
flickering fantasies… 
there I’m cruising 
above an 
 island of mystery
in a flying

On your knees with a single tear so priceless
That may fall on my cold cheek with power to revive, resurrect.
But not this time, not...

Oh Whisperer, whisperer of loves endless refrain, the circle turns again
Earthly desires echo in time, your thoughts I feel, echoing through mine
Tapestry of time, mysteries of rhyme, friendly gestures haunt my mind
Subliminal touch, I breathe...

Love
Unconditional love
mysterious, undecipherable
ambiguous love.
Giving in to the uncertainty of the heart.
Embracing a notion of longevity,
commitment, inclusion
unequivocal bonds.
Love!
Ambiguous love.
A lifetime of fear from every direction whenever that simple word comes into play.
Summoning of a weary soul...

The winged god Zephyrus, handsome and graceful
gently flapped his wings, gliding across the meadows.
His eyes fell on naked youths splashing at play
in the sparkling water of a deep wide pool, sheltered  
by willow trees,...

 Frosty-glassed windows and fiery eyes
Finally with you after some tries
Rainy day sunshine brighten my smile
Warm us, tropical storm, and stay awhile

Surf the waves through the ocean springs
Jack of the trade and King of all...

He was standing there,
Tall, dark, stone.
Looming in the shade,
Though the sun illuminated everything around him.

He stood with a soft somber face,
Though his whole was rock,
A darkly shaded gray rock,
Almost the exact substance of shadow,
In an...

On the patio I can see the chameleons
Their necks so red with lust
On the wind the green parrots
Call to one another hoping for a place to rest
The sky is orange and deep purple with the...

So where's our lauded critical thinking, wisdom of the ages,
When far at sea unbridled plastic pollution rages?

Two large patches of plastic debris
Are circling in the North Pacific sea.

The greatest minds of our day can't solve...

Looking down upon the deed I find
The questions circling in my mind
Was there some choice I overlooked?
Some option hid or worse forsook?
My brothers now behind me stand,
and we proclaim a merry band!
Yet it’s the blood-soaked...

Sitting Bull is watching, the soldiers as they pass.
Gold is in the mountains, so the white man comes to pillage;
The soldiers come to see to that, by raiding...

Remember the Sabbath
to keep it holy 
free of Shoulds.

A should-free cathedral
of intimate athleticism
romantic
exotic
ecstatic
euphoric
erotic

Exhausts this sabbath light
at long last
widely dawning deeply stronger
and resiliently handsome
dark as night

In virtuously enlightening response
to Saturnight's weekly exorcism
annihilating
exhausting
expiring

Yet another weekday week
weak slow-groan...

Cradled by rain and wind
weeps the bare of green
recalling sunlit days of spring
birds romancing by foliage hid
birthing life in flowery inns
swinging fruits like rosy kids 
waving colors pushed by wind
orange cherries nectarines
strawberry hoods in festive...

In the dimming light of her bedroom,
a child sits facing the wall in her bad chair.
She has to go potty, but she doesn’t dare.
So she stares at the wall in the gathering gloom.

I was trying to find a corner in this haze,
Except that it was a circular maze.
I wanted to see the end,
Who knew this maze was my only friend?

It seemed confusing and hard at the beginning,

I know you see me shimmering,
     tantalizingly just in front of you
You got an uncontrollable thirst,
     a rabid thirst for some real truth
Mainstream news drought has you...
