Long Confiding Poems

(In a Lush Garden Somewhere Out There)

The student stands where shifting sands of thought,
Once firm with reason, now elusive truths are sought.
Its splendor wanes, a threadbare, fading strand,

In the secret places
Of my heart,

Where there live silhouettes
Confiding in the mysteries,
Reasons...

eavesdropping on my peers
soft whispers echo off tiled walls
revealing secrets, hidden tears

Somehow this restroom has become
a sordid confessional booth
a place of refuge, safe for some
to air their inner truth

Co-workers cluster, confiding...

Recently…while waiting in the lobby of an airport to catch a flight connected with my work…
This guy strolls through the vestibule…his entourage in tow…and half the crowd around me goes berserk.

Reflections of a friendship gone astray, 
Spiral above my thoughts as I readily ponder
What should be said if I were to speak
One last time to you my old freind

For unlike...

Pardon me, 
It is I, the peasant gentleman.
From yester’s encounter.
I apologise for not revising nobility. 
But as I said I have seen you before.

Perhaps you...

Puffy fat potato heads, skinny stockings sewn,
bunched and hunched in bedrooms where
they’re scattered, scrapped, or thrown.

Clara, Dolly, Elmo, Sally, three wise sisters, Mr. mittens; 
shoes and bags, skins in rags, scars from dog-teeth bitten.
Clothing torn,...
