Long Digests Poems

Why isn't philosophy written most wisely

from scientific recovery
as economics...

Wings take flight
Right off the page

As the words escape my mind.

Pen touches the crisp paper
Magic begins to glow

Transforming...

Piles of beech wood by the door
Smokey stains adorn the iron roof

voraciously gorging on cold hard lucre, 
so i can stand here before you

This love is chaotic
My anxiety to feel your skin texture
Leads me to severe headache and fever,
My breath cutoff,

But this success carried,
Years of persistent determination
To look beyond the failures.

Upshots a sensational Victory
But this winning carried,
Months of sustained spiritedness
To look beyond...

Yellowed silence buries last memories

Yearly rain writes an anonymous journal

She steals my sleep and invades my dreams; 
she cannot be silenced.
Goddess or devil,

No rest will come;

Mouths appear numb..must have been struck till dumb?

To grapple on the hold of restlessness
Feelings of tyrannical fearlessness
Close your eyes and be helpless
Oh I throw my hands up to be rid of this mess
I roam and roam...
