Long Fertilize Poems

What I have for you today is not so much about re-treading an outdated fuel-based system--
little bit like reshuffling the chairs to fix the decay 
of a segregating Country Club.

No, this is addressed to economic...

Let's say I am an antro-privileged terrorist.

What would we be saying? 
And is human nature supremacy
over all other less sacred nature/spirits
as monotheistically redundant
as anthro-industrious militarism?

If you are a HolySpirit panentheist,
is "religious terrorist" as oxymoronic
as using...

Here's my deal.
I have unlimited time to invest in regenerative life,
and really no healthy climate time at all to invest in furthering overpowering pathologies
heading toward Yang-crazed terrifying rabidity.

For you, reduced to a human individual ego-identity,

Vietnam in '68
By Franklin Price
08/10/2020

January '68, I arrived at Cam Rahn Bay
Found out this place, in Vietnam, was the best place I could play
Ground bound, in the Air Force, and living on the beach,
On a...

A room without a view, unkempt for many a long year
Dusty aging book slanting within a bookcase
Closet doors creaked, the wide boarded floors moaned as I walk
Adjacent to the bookcase is a stone fire place...

Why couldn't the lizard get married and have children?
Because he had Reptile Dysfunction.

Two men broke into a drug store and stole all the Viagra.
The police put out an alert, to be on the lookout for...

Schools can be so unbearable sometimes, 
On some days, it’s the work
Homework!Homework!Homework!
On others, it’s the teacher
Do this! Do that! No! Yes! Stop! Don’t talk!
Some days, you just want to kill everybody

The Classroom is much like...

It was a long walk, with time heeling at my shadow. 
(and somewhere miles away the garage door closed, and the exhaust flowed,
and a small dog died in her limp arms)
I was friendly with God....

I heard echoes of scurrilous snarls, 
from my conscience as it spoke
contemptible remarks aimed at me.
What shame those words delivered.

"Fatuous one, why does your hand quiver,
mimicking the trembling lips of a child in fear?
You dare...

"Gardener Of Love"

I'm not rich with money
And be, I never will
For it's not a path I've chosen
Nor in my garden, till.

Other things matter most
And always will to me,
Things born of Love 
Our eyes can never...

The elements of truth within eachofus,
Inspiteofus,   trying to getoutofus!!
So that all may see,

Of the mind, you see!

Prescribed blood tests
present no qualms,
unlikely nothing askew i.e.

by dad's and/or mom's

panic minimizes si? no sweaty palms,

Brenda Chim Chim Cherie;
Chimney happy as can be.

While my many poems I am compiling, 
What you should be doing is smiling; 
Mind with load,
Can corrode;
Others may be fooling and beguiling.

Fatality A Reality

Two people meet. Is it by chance?
Can love begin with just one glance?
How do we know if it is real?
Have we imagined what we feel?

These questions burn within my mind. 
I wonder if I'll ever...

Salmon Run

A flurry of reds emerges distorted from the river;
As the Sockeye Salmon return from the ocean,
Following the scent of their home stream water,
Swimming upstream to the place of their birth,
In this, their final act...

A thunderstorm booms from your lungs 
with every breath, to silence the violins 
meant to accompany the beat from your chest.
Keep your gaze held straight upward
and witness the crash of your eyelids.
