With a Cat Lying On My Lap

a sough whispers in the trees 
as a summer day begins fading
the tiger lilies below bend as if trumpeting
a musical for ears yet to come into existence
evaporating the din...

Portraits and busts of illustrious men,
Adorn the gardens and marble fireplaces,
But those of their wisdom no longer reign.

Withered are the founding principles,
Replaced by the capriciously whimsical,
The lofty...

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

The apparent insanity of inmates
and prisoners
and addicts, conspiracy theorists and paranoids,
