Scrambling tooth and nail for a patterned fate
I approached the lofty mansion of Learning's Gate.
All cued up for a slip of paper - the one they call Degree,
halfway convinced that I hallucinated humanity.
For who under...

My son is getting older, and he just went back to College, the other day.
But he had enjoyed the summer, by adding a new game to his daily play.
He called it Troll Tipping as daily...

At the local bar one friday night, we were shootin' pool and getting tight,
Just havin' fun in the neon light, yea, everything was cool, out a sight!
Now I've played pool for years on end, my...

Prologue
 
Abandoned and in disrepair the mansion 
Is dark now; a story behind every stanchion.
It is an unwitting monument to a way of life,
Since foreclosed through bloody civil strife.

Antebellum

The hush of summer evenings cued the...

A kite flies a fair-weather bird,
Whenever wind wants would it fly,
In adverse wind to go wayward.  

Some that come with a heavy spine,
No matter what tricks you might try,
They never once fall in fair...

I landed in Kansas, Middle Earth.
I asked the first human I met to show me something about Kansas.
She tried to describe The Wizard of Oz.
It was confusing, so she invited me into her house.
Cued up...

So swiftly our passage brief,
Our old house looks lonely sad;
Now like a stranger I grief
Upon the place once most glad.


Just way back when we lived here,
Yet now we know sad refrains;
There is a space for...

Menu A or Menu B ? oh dear! quite a dilemma really. ha

Tadpoles induced symphonies in a bowl of custard cued. But cued is neither curd nor carved caverns catering cafés. Cafés cage craterous carefully...

There, that songwriter-singer again,
  this late-night song-talk show on TV,
    he must be in his mid-forties still,
      but looks much older than seventy.

Our first drawn breath    A symbolic pact
Stating Mother Nature's works as natural acts

Without sayers of fortune
Or circled hands professed of shine
Only an arachnid's sky bound brood
Did manifest her vision in his mind

Crystal clear, the acrostic cube of words,
underneath the surface lie patterns undisturbed.
Brilliantly crafted, a grid to be revered,
endlessly challenging, with solutions to be cleared.

Multitudes of letters, arranged with care,
nor are they haphazard, no random flair.
Insight...

Cars cued up
Engines raving
Suspense and energy, thick in the air
We are gathered at the race track of life
Some sit in the stands
Some sit behind the wheel

Some drivers are sponsored by Jehovah Jireh
Some drivers are sponsored...

Under her guidance, we stood at attention
Like a row of young soldiers, reciting the anthem
"Oh Say, Can You See?".. was a warbled contusion,
that could shatter your glasses, disturb other classes
out of tune, out of rhythm,...

i sank before
not knowing
that your
form

would be
before me
at the alter 
universe

and yet
upset at
your altar
bothered

i have
been praying
some would
say preying

but 
a muse
is a muse

muse

so 
she let me
selectively
seduce

parts

all
of her

not more
but another
only for me
to discover

the sheets

Electrons fulfill their wave equations
Bonding polarities shift their vectors
Giving way for kinase phosphorations
On a channel near neural connectors

Anions build within the cell's walls
So Potassium plays with its mates
Sheltered from large sodium rainfalls
By fat magnesium blocking...

In the deepness of my reverie I see the future dim, 
With twists and turns I can not guess, 
Possibilities great and grim. 

Through the depths of thoughts I can’t explain and trains I can...

Without uttering a word, nature preaches. 
A google search may hold all the answers except for 'self'. 
The watercourse way reveals the solution one seeks. 

A cloudless sky, a blank canvas. 
Over four million results...

words hardly do actions justice
and in the means of what you believe is right
true
accurate,
you'll be surprised to find
that every
precise word
spilled into the air
is in actuality
a lie.
Spewed upon the imperfect page,
burn holes swallowing every letter
as if...

Mystic Physics

By Mark D. Stucky
When God said, “Let there be,”
	ALL erupted from singularity.

The event horizon couldn’t bind Him.
Space and time required Him.

The Creator cued the quarks
	and cast quasars across the sky.
The Programmer wrote the code,
	and...

Shannon,
I knew her in 
middle school
friends caught 
somewhere between
being children, pre-teen
adults.

We jumped with
a wooden handled rope 
across the stage
in Tom Sawyer.

1890's leather
and petticoats
galloping and swishing
against exposed 
pale thin knobbed
ankles.

Crossed stage right
to stage left,
cued when Tom...
