Long Diminishment Poems

As I look back across more musical times
of rhythmic reflections,
ceremonies and commemorations
of each dawn and dusk eremitic liturgy,
if that is not an oxymoron
of sound and sight,
song and dance,
tragically sad, yet also bilaterally bound with happier...

I could not do what you are mandated to do
every day on society's justice bench,
weighing retributive justice 
against restorative healing.

I cannot look with any comfort
at police
and correction officers'
routinely criminalizing vocations,
and courtroom injudicious levying of fines
against...

May supreme Force
become You.

How is whiteness
like straightness?
she asked

And how is maleness
like left-brain dominance?
he responded.

It seems, 
to usually curious
and always ancient
right with left dipolar ecofeminist Us,

Contracts are secular agreements
designed to improve mutual odds
of losing less value

A hint of helping this wholesome Harris son
can across thru the air
Hence this poetic expression
of gratitude Matthew Scott wants to blare
And communicate my genuine
appreciation crystal clear
Toward one whose existence

Hearts succumb to tragedies, lead by pseudo eternities
Reaching out once more, in futility
For a spoken hope, that is void of action
Watching success bloom, breeding envy toward a friend
The cycle is harsh, every new beginning enticing...

Someone who once loved me dearly
Now despises me.
In such small things are paved the roads to hell.
A turning away from grace.
A tail-spinning stumble down the stairs,
Hitting my head on my lofty ideals
On my mistaken belief...

The return unseen, strangers to a home
Pieces fit so snugly, unsettling to think
Attempts at resistance, delayed responses
Hate clouds, above love's umbrella 
The echoes reveal, intention was real.

Little things hidden, repercussions severe
The burns felt, as friction...

At the shrinkage of the page
Expressions plead for length
Inhibition imposed on lines by columns
Words already accustom to scarcity
Pieces find focus in incompletion.

Thoughts flutter toward temples
Ready to leave prints on a canvass
Diving into ink, drying before...

the blogger
is the wretched chicken
laying an asteroid.


the city dweller
is the self identifying
contagious forlorn.


he strives 
for the praise.
he strives 
for a masterpiece.

a ruffian. 


the breasts 
of equality
the jaw of
rebellion.
the revolutionary
spark plug.


the YES MAN!

I do pray to the government and the future,

I do see the complacent and our need for a feature,

I'm here, 
no race, 
no peers-

just 27 ears and you with your clear,

I do pray for the...

Grook

Modern judicial punishments have become so humane
it’s forcing the cruel, sadistic and vengeful to complain!



Grook

Is modern judicial punishment
undergoing chronic diminishment?
Yes, protest the vengeful, sadistic, and cruel.
Why? Because it’s no longer seen as criminal.

Even in tight...

For what it’s worth, this day’s for earth
And ways we can protect it,
For all the harm we humans do
Is proof we don’t respect it.

The litter that we fritter
Often ends up in the ocean
Killing those who...
