plus what would have been ninety sixth birth

Controversies have been circling ‘round my head
Regrets need to be let go – instead…
Dread gets in the way
Today isn’t so gray
There’s this deepness in your voice that I love most
It’s a thing that I won’t...

Bleak and dark, no up or down
In your head, round and round
Memories from long ago

You thought your mind was yours and free
Second...

to accompany ourselves amidst others in rubble strewn cocoon 
or perchance an arid extra dry spell blows humungous dune
donning any brave soul to weather

While armed and hooded villains carry out their wicked plan
They rob the bank and make off just as quickly as they can
But Speedy does a wheelie...

I'm standing here staring in the mirror.
I can't stand the image portrayed.
A figure wrapped in a vest of flesh, 
but empty it is, 
living without an organ in its chest.
I am soulless like roadkill.
Must be,...

Le Squirrel Sat For Le Painter

His canvass set
And oils based,
He zeroed onto her providence.
His lips miming
Rhode Island here
Big Apples there.
She scowled her impatience.
Her eyes dismissing his.
Although,
Him noting her dark chocolates,
Sweet looking,
Cloaked as balls of fire,
And...

I had her life in my grip.
Locked hand to hand through the tension.
Weightless like air, high in suspension.

into the depths of the terrain.
Nor...

So with this POETIC ANTHRAX,

  to know you can't do what another can,

Sauna Bath of Love


Magic in her hands’ soft touch electrifies
Reciprocating the wobbly clutch of my giddy spirit 
Sailing in the ethereal vacuum of love and bliss;
While lustful heart with vertigo swing and spin:
Ecstatic soul revelling...

Starfall
I saw a shooting star running across the sky
It was like a softball of sparkles that can fly
And I wondered
Maybe the one of the angels just hit a homerun
Because is not every day we witness...

I went soaring again on the wings of love 
but at this moment I'm so lonely I could die

Last time thoughts of boosted hope
came toppling down from the launch pad
of inert indecisions 
Malfunction of a dilithium crystal heart ... 
another failed relationship
doomed to never takeoff from the start

Comrade
Tie rollerskates to pólice
Horses hoofs
Piss on the grim parade
From the roof
Of the dept store
Slip a fortune cookie note
That reads
´give me liberty or death
Or chicken chow mein ´
In the pocket of a
Passing pope
Arm the homeless
With pitchforks
