Premium Member Eye of the Tropical January Sun

Exercising belief about unknowns.
Makes sense to take your best guess.
Using history, numbers, extrapolation.
Getting the trajectory right for re-entry.
Few dissenters left for climate change, evolution.
Nuclear power brings a process to earth
that occurs only in space. Dangerous
but necessary? Not a risk-averse weasel.

One among many mammals is the weasel,
not known for its consideration of unknowns
but, for its extreme caloric needs, considered dangerous.
My wife says in England violent gusts
forced a locomotive off its tracks. One interpretation
might reasonably be that the mother, earth,
has stopped mothering man. We're entering
a period of unknowns and must evolve.

What might this involve
and what adjustments are possibly feasible?
Walking rather than riding to the subway entrance,
using less electricity until more is known,
preserving agricultural soils and forest land,
buying fewer plastic contraptions.
My brother's washing his pajamas less often.

None of this may make the slightest difference
in how the earth and the sun and universe revolve.
But we are human and addicted to action,
the probable less attractive than the possible.
Also, there's no percentage in respecting death
unless it's imminent. Better to remain centered,
focused on food, child-bearing, war and the poem.

All driveways plowed, all lawns mowed.
Just in time before the first snow, I raked our leaves.
Two eight hour days. What percent of all time is that?
Draw a ray with point A the first pile of leaves
extending to the extrapolating end of universe.
.01 of Aaron. Zero of Zach.
Hawks playing, hunting, mating, canaries in the mine.

Having been too many places to count.
Sex bars, infant formulas, fire crews, last rites, permanent jobs, traffic
      tickets, judges' chambers, out houses, wedding banquets, boiling
      teapots, frantic centuries, facial tissues, presumed innocent, clear
      intentions, stainless steel.
Spiderweb glove. Deerfly earring. Daddylonglegs seeingeyedog.
Memorized songs. Privatized loans.
You cannot know what you're doing until you've done it.
Erudite sweep the floor. Articulate make the bed.
Infrared town hall. Crab nebula. Your last crap.
Eye of the tropical January sun. Slouching toward temperate zone.

Premium Member Dad jokes

What is brown and sticky and could have a tickity tick 
There are a lot of possibilities, but I believe it is a "Stick" 
Let me tell you about the rumor I heard of- about butter 
Oh, never mind I shouldn't be "Spreading it" 
If by chance you see a bee- don't swat it and don't run 
Just look at it- because seeing is "Bee leaving" 
Last night a buddy of mine ate a live frog 
Sorry to say- last night he "Croaked" 
I bet some sucker a fin that I could make a tissue dance 
I won...I put a little "Boogie" in it! 
Ya know, a car is not a car when it "Turns into" a parking lot 
The boy wall and the girl wall decide where to meet... 
they finally decided to meet at the "Corner" 
There was no chemistry though- there was no "Reaction" from either of them 
My kitten taught me how to make an eggroll- she pushed it 
I really never been a fan of facial hair, but ya know... 
I think it's starting to grow on me.

My son by Blossom Monyei the bleeding pen

My son,
I've embraced wisdom and have been guarded by its impenetrable walls.
My feet have walked the earth for decades,
that which I've witnessed haven't been ignored but paid great heed to.

My son,
Don't be afraid of isolation.
You don't know how desperate are the hearts of those you gather with,
Your eyes are blind to their thoughts.

My son,
Don't be deceived by facial expressions,
hypnotized by its fake smile and suddenly have a stabbed back.
The teeth is white but the heart is hidden.

My son,
Take a look at my friend Thompson,
he earns a thousand dollars every month.
He then begs for one dollar from the girl he loves so much,
leaving the remaining with her to squander alone.

My son, 
Isn't that foolishness, to allow a woman see that you're a weakling?
Giving her your entire sweat, and beg for only one to manage.
She doesn't even care about him.

My son, 
The heart will burn like flame.
Not even a word should be uttered at this state.
Let your heart cool before taking any step

My son, I've walked this earth for years
seen good and bad, learned to steer clear

Don't let money make you lose your head
it'll fly away like leaves, leave you in the cold instead.

Premium Member Gone With the Wind

Gathered with sister, my mother and kleenex,
Oblivious to our red noses, facial poses and tears,
Nudging each other with movie memory reflex -
Each of us embrace characters long held as dear.

We submit joyously to this continuous, intense escape
Inside the lives of scandalous Scarlett and romantic Rhett.
Trials and tribulations of civil war, deceit and love shape
Heaven and hell into a dramatic, unforgettable duet.

Torn, we watch as hunger, fear and surrounding violent war,
Harms character’s hearts and more discouragements pour.
Enemy destruction devastates Southern life and lore.

While wishing true love’s fulfillment for Rhett’s desirous heart,
Inevitably his sexy charm will wham our hearts like a wild lamb.
No one should dare interrupt our favorite, dramatic film art, or
Disturb Rhett’s last line, “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.”

The Hairbrush

A small hairbrush
On a small shelf
Over her bed

We had talked together
The night before
Not about the weather

Hurricane
Raining; 40 days and 40 nights
Had we talked about the weather

We had talked about things
Things difficult to talk about
Hard to continue, hard to stop

I had seen her comb her hair
I had not seen her brush it
It was a small hairbrush

A brush made for smaller hands than mine
I could picture her mother; brushing her hair
A memento; of mother lost

I showed her the brush; standing in front of the mirror
Picture a beach: children playing under the sun
Picture a beach: winter storm coming on strong

Picture a mirror: two faces
Picture two facial expressions
Changing; like waves on the sea

Picture a bed
Picture two people sharing it
Close encounters 

I decided to by her a gift
Thought about what to buy
Not a hair brush

Premium Member It Started With A Blank Canvas

It started with a blank canvas when I was twelve.
I started seeing this vision and I knew it was not a dream
for I always saw the vision when I was awake and about.
It started blank, all white, just like a blank canvas. 

Soon there were sketches of images, images that soon
turned into blue skies and white clouds, reddish, brownish
old building with white motifs, sidewalk and cobblestoned   
street in the background of four young ladies in uniform.

I imagined the building was their school and they had just
crossed the street for their faces were vividly painted showing
facial expressions of happiness, like excitement with group
of girls chatting, giggling, laughing, happy that school was over.

The canvas displayed one of the girls more distinct, clearly
stirring that she was the main character of the layout.
Indeed, it was for there was another canvas I saw in my vision.
It started as a blank canvas and sketches of images emerged.

An empty big stage with gold and red curtain in the background.
Bright lights, green decorations, like leaves surrounded the stage.
The main character, dressed in white with flowers on her hair
took the stage dancing while the other three watched and looked on.
