The structure is imposing, massive and fearful.  Built in 1862 as a jail and
gallows for the worst of humanity.  "Living"  conditions were sickening and
appalling.  The top floor was reserved for death-row...

I wonder if our reasons
for growing random acts of violence
are similar
to our dwindling random acts of reasoned healing,
kindness,
gratitude,
unrequited love,
uncommodified,
unconscripted,
unscripted,
uncontained
restoring cooperative ecopolitical relationships forward
not just because this is our right and healthy familial thing to do
but...

Like the breathless air of twilight,
As the moon softly rises and tempts the stars
Into the quiet revelations, admissions
Grace, splendor, magnificence…
Painting the dreams with a quivering ink,
Spilled upon the emptiness beneath the still, white page,
Simplicity at...

A serious commitment never ending
a binding link between a consenting two
but feels like a gift of a cute and soft teddy bear with mysterious eyes.
It seems to open a door but with so many windows,

My occupation is supplying individuals with the substance of their worst desire
Most dealers driving force is the desire to increase their wealth, monetary gain
My driving force the result of my own treacherous case of Heroin...

His heart, his soul, his spirit – worth more
Than the whispers of the wind, dreaming
In endless prayer, praying for hope galore
Aching to grace each soul with redeeming
Knowing the One who all hearts do adore
The One...

Never let your fears be the boundaries of your dreams. ~ unknown

Erase the dark with morning’s sweet breath,
Shimmering light silences shadow’s caress,
Blaming the night for all the worries and strife,
As whispers remember where her light...

gauntlet of mirrors transparency personified
transparency personified when the curtain falls
in an arena of quick sand and impromptu judgement

the stage was well set though actually
it presented itself as rather empty
epic theatre art form at its vacant...

A Concealed exercise concocted, 
Wuhan Lab the playground, 
secretive China obliges,
Western media consenting, 
Medical experts silenced. 
the age of censorship,  

Dictators feigning incognito, 
The diurnal and  nocturnal schemes of top players, 
A script...

Here it lies in a pool of non-consenting blood, barely beating and still in shock all the while being whispered to this was love
Man is usually the predator and the weaker of the two is...

She keeps her darkness well within
Under her smile so drenched with sin
Letting it seep and settle in, 
The only proof, a dazzling grin
She don’t even flinch at being fought 
She knows she’s in safe hands
For...

On the night skies,
Drifting – solitary stars…
Collected, quiet, nomadic,
Free and flowing 
Gliding through the silence

On the gentle promises,
Wordless, but sworn…
In faith, never doubting,
Sure as the endlessness of stars,
Moon glowing – wise as the heart.

On the...

Why are all these hash slingers
Constantly there on my TV?
When did the ability to cook 
Become reason for celebrity?
Eating for me is just like
Shovelling coal on a fire,
Just adding fuel to keep
Your energy levels higher.
It’s...

Had been to an astrologer
To know about my future
But he got hooked up on my past

King I was, he said with reverence
Reveled in all materialistic pleasures 
Have enjoyed life to fullest

I reflected awhile 
Yeah, have...

Your sandals make a strange mixing sound,    
As we step together down this shadowy path,
Past the innumerable tufts of sprygen weed,
Where old farmers once hoofed to the music
Of the Elkhorns, and the...

(This poem is dedicated to Beryl Singleton Bissell, whose book of this name

It occasionally  occurs to me,

as I distractedly remove my right dominant
Powder-Free Vinyl Exam Glove,
after yet another young adult diaper change,

Perhaps getting lovingly laid
by a lifetime committed
caring and passionately consenting peer
filled with warm compassion,
active hope...

There is no explaining it
how my hands in finger joints 
in loose expectation to elbow and shoulder
crave and ponder
the empty space which was you
some involuntary response
to thoughts so naked
a soft entrapment of desire
and rides a...

Death, don't lie to the rest of the world
Say it, 
Loud and clear
That you and I are good friends!

Say it,
That you are,
For me,
The taste of exquisite chocolate 
As it melts in the mouth,
You are,
The orgasmic...

Past Will Find Behind

Predict that past will always find behind;
Would be best if both Carolina's combine;
A poetry and book contest be presenting;
Both Carolinas am sure are consenting.

There are those who lie and are alibiing;
New plans...

May be today I have failed
But someday again I will be hailed
Success would be mine
And life’s journey would be fine


My future goals would be set
And all the hurdles would be boldly met
I will rise as...

Partnerships contract primal economic,
civil,
cultural rights between consenting mutually subsidiary parties;
ecojustice solidarity mentors relationship-building.

Marriage contracts regenerate deep ecological sacred rites,
a liturgy of procreative mutual polarity and parity
bi-naturally systemic.
Iconic of nature's quintessential binomiality,
bi-normiality,
bionically balanced as dipolar "tension"...
