This Is Feminist Us

It's peaceful here in my backyard.
The crows sound happy
with warm October sunlight.

I just read about a deadly gathering in Las Vegas.
Absence of sun-drenched peace.
Inconvenient this time of lost loss.
Death is always inconvenient,
even when invited.

A veteran,

Ready, Aim, Fire

I’m mad as H E Double Hockey Sticks, flummoxed, and  more than a little scared
Kids are being shot in their own back yards, makes me sick to my stomach
Mommas and daddies taken in handcuffs...

Unsappy Happy Talk

I said to my son,
He said back to me,
To be honest with us,
I'm worried

We want to be happy
while bypassing disciplines of left-brain healthy
is not too right-brain cooperatively sappy.

But, after my ancient lifetime of trying
directly for...

The Last 4 Years and the Coming Decade 3

Conceited clericalism is encroaching scientific study and educational exploration, obdurate obscurantism engulfing people's normal mentality and judgment, ramrod racism routing ethnic equality and melting harmony~~~~~~
After 4 years of punk-sunk domestic complexion and skunk-drunk diplomatic stance...

Foreboding -- Song of Demagogia

Introduction

From the city on the river
Where the Sage of Monticello
And the Great Emancipator
Birthed the country, saved the nation,
Sounds a call for civil discord
In the service of ambition
From a man whose God is power,
And his name...

Twin Aborted Truth

	
She refuses to bring a child
into this cradle contaminated world
Even herself, she wished
were never brought into it

With stillborn immature regret,
she woulda flatline wrapped the umbilical cord
around herself ...
And let the ultrasound noise
drown her,
with a suicide...

Conscious

I’ll sing you dream songs
that last as long as the hills
but know this my love
it’s fullness IS
the striving of our wills

Against the darkness
that has crept stealthily
into the hearts of man
I cannot describe
this latent longing
to rest...

Oh Baneful Yellow Moon

Oh baneful yellow Moon in fullest rounded sphere,
Bright as Summers Buttercups in abundant yield,
Coldly riveted upon Winters beaten, thin silvered panels;
Thereof: By ye mighty hammer doth great thoth wield!

For what fearful trowel gouged out thine...

Storm 9

It’s not something you’re saying
Even though that’s what I’m blaming
It’s nothing you’re doing
Neither anything you’re undoing
It’s you
I kept digging
Into my heart of stinging
Emotions kept swinging
Springing and clinging from the highest building to the lowest flooring
Like...

The Worship of Man's Reason

(Let no trust be vested in men, but bind them 
down with the chains of the Constitution)

The wave of the future for disaffected man;
such a noble experiment, our revolutionary plan.
World wide in scope, humanity’s salvation;

My Sins With Bukowski

cyou ramble with his poetry
book after book
but you are not a rose,
you are not a thorn
neither virgin, nor the whore
of his better days
under neon lights
and the sweat of inspiration

crying with Orbison and Lang
the touch that...

Close To the Bone

Christina knows a thing or two about sacrifice 
Ceaseless days, cold offices and numbers
Checkin' catalogs for the remnant of a social life
Eats her lunches at her desk, yet she's dying from hunger

But there's a medal...

Too Many Women

Women in business suits, women in jeans,
Women who like it on top,
Silver-plated women, just another pretty face,
Barefoot women aching for a carnal embrace.
 
Long legs, lean thighs,
Snappy ass, seductive eyes.
 
Women in summertime, women in...

Lukewarm Lethal


Some people got ice cold demands;
frozen core empathy
and a granite-gloved heart
Others got hot-temper lava souls;
unstable magma pleas,
	   very volcanic emotional
But it’s the tepid, lukewarm hands
that you must be most mindful of
Their disaffected ways...

Camelot

Some claimed that Camelot was noble,
a place built upon the stony ground
of good-intentions,
it was new and fangled,
it was progressive
in a time of little progress.

I have seen it, I was there,
always there was the choking fog
of...

A Little Kindness Never Hurts

Sit with me.
Sit with me, ragged feral,
do not be afraid,
fight for no space uncertain,
you will be soothed, you will be safe,
you only need sit with me.

Walk with me.
Walk with me, stray mongrel,
do not remain unwanted,

Catcher in the Rye

The catcher in the rye
I go and drop the ball
I lay it down and cry
I’m sleeping in the stall
Cause everyone is phony
Your company is lonely
Your animals are bony
Your everything is only

I’m underneath the bridge
Below the...

On the Brink of Catastrophe

My Failing Life

My Failing Life  
My bones are chilled; winter like death. 
Cold lay bare - rain like tears.
Wildflower that opens in the morning and 
by the evening cut down - only to wither.
Innocence answers to...

Spare Me Disaffected Trolls

Spare me the agonizing of disaffected trolls
Who find nothing of substance worthy of note,
Desperately seeking a modicum of control
Their unconcealed nastiness a matter of rote.

Have they nothing better to do with their time
Than to criticize...

Disaffection

Your vibrant smile
haunts me every now and then
Sashaying strut like a peacock
is how I remember you
How come I recall only good things about you?
In my present condition,
I'm morbidly disaffected
Clear blue skies look to be dull...

The Ought of Autumn

It ought to light up my being
With the color and passion
Of its crisp, browning magic
It ought to bring the sounds
Of fire crackle, warm abrasions
And unlimited clinks to hearths
Of every size and flavor
It ought to turn...

There Are Never Enough Soldiers

Never enough.
The mud clogs,
the mad dogs, the fogs of war.
Not enough soldiering marching.
They cannot now fill the great mirror,
the sky-high mirror -
all the reflected disaffected
and their alter-images,
not enough to fill the volcanic eruptions
of the public...

Buggy Blues

In the soon to be future
they built an A.T.V.
and sent it to Ganymede.
It was ordered to go 
here and there,
to dig and scan - it obeyed.

Time passed, 
samples were sent back
for analysis.
Eventually NASA diminished,
there were...
