Take the Ripe Plum
How far from nature and life it is
the gray clouds, airplanes in them
the night cooing and pigeons roosting
Sirma's garden gone to roses and seed
That airplane overhead!
pointing the way
pointing to war
War being an aggravated condition of...

the Builders' work battered;
the high ramparts toppled;

Wildflower
A wildflower grows on the cobblestoned streets of this dingy town,
Among the dirt and debris left behind by the seasons.
A misplaced beauty working her way up among the cracks between
the rocks of this place she...

Squirrels and Hounds
The squirrel’s hell is, for the hound, heaven.
And the rain, thunder, which flatten leaven,
Quench also the thirst of blossom’d flowers.
Tears spring forth joyful, in equal power
With grief and lost hope.
Mourning by morning, laughing...

Iambic Pentameter
It Started With A Blank Canvas
It started with a blank canvas when I was twelve.
I started seeing this vision and I knew it was not a dream
for I always saw the vision when I was awake and about.
It started blank,...

POWER IN THE TONGUE
A petite yet sinewy muscle, exuding charisma,
A citadel of expression, tenacious in awe.
Its tentacles sting with a vindictive jest,
While cavernous blooms cradle the nectar’s quest.
Cobblestoned emotions jade my mental slate,
As chronicles surface, vivid and up...

Out of the Shadows
A littered path of dreams that lay broken.
Humbled desires strewn over this road.
These are the sorrows that need to be spoken.
This is the bearing of love's grievous load.
Eating your sweet lies just like they were...

Lingering Memories
Gray mist mingles with tears sired in grief
My cold skin streaked by the hushed warmth of sorrow
Broken morning wooing my pain
Withered leaves once the color of emeralds
Prance over the cobblestoned path
Like tiny dancers tapping toes...

Icy Fingers
It is cold tonight, the winds fingers have
ice on their tips. They run down your cheek
and arrest the colour, leaving them pale,
pale as the stark moon that sulks the sky.
I walk with the...

Kandy Kingdom
There's a castle in Duluth
Made out of sugar cubes
And the moat that flows out front
Is filled with soda pop
Fruit that grows on trees
Is the finest in jelly beans
In the nearby spring fed lake
People swim...

The Dam Broke In Quebec
The dam broke in Quebec.
My thoughts,
my words,
and my pen
all moved.
Moved like the thin layer
of brackish water
over the icy depths
of le Fleave St. Laurent.
Moved like the evening breeze
over the cobblestoned streets
past the lighted shops’...

The Day of Recogning
The day of reckoning
A bird with an enormous wingspan darkened the sky
it was a night of horror in the Middle East.
A new country born in sin and filched land arose
blood ran in ancient, narrow...
