Hymn To Farewell
Why does my multicultural applauding message,
my polycultural cheerleading,
sound so monocultural chant, rant,
a passionless litany of redundant verse?
Who would have it said of their voice

and yet wandering on far too long?
Even resonance

Gadflies and Honeybees
Where to begin
in the middle of cold and dark
winter's solstice,
healthy green life's time

excommunication,

I don't see you.
I've been searching my whole life,
But still, I don't see you.

My father's toil,
My brother's refuge,
My sister's amity ...
I didn't see you.

A Free-Verse Epic
Thus it begins—
A free-verse epic
Into the mind of
A writer and an idiot—
A romantic and,
Often a pessimist
Conjoined in arbitrary glory
Are the thoughts and words
Of one overly-worked mind—
Charismatic and, of course,
On the pushover, pitiful
And usually...
