Sarah’s Origin
My eyes stare straight,
fixated on something in the distance,

the doctor giving one of his ‘visits,’
his moans...

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 37
I heard two distinct voices in the night,
Conversing amongst themselves most eagerly
They whispered like children in excitement
Their sardonic mouths sung many savvy tunes
It was Death I could perceive, defending me,
And he, a strange, distant friend
Seemed...

Misanthropic Melodies
Misanthropic melodies played from a broken violin
Prehistoric prophecies that ignite new ideas before they begin
Telescopic telomeres that formulate a scientific grin
Endoscopic X-rays and a doctor drunk on gin
Valiant human beings with virtue among the discord

Temporal incarnation of Aphrodite
Temporal incarnation of Aphrodite...
induces idyllic reverie
delight evoking similar surge,

fidelity defining the marital law
on par with courting in flagrante delicto.

Extends apace far wide and tall,
Distances relatives and friends
And was the cause of Satan`s fall."- By Author

Tell her you saw me ...
Tell her I was out on the bluff at the Cape
during a gale, much too close to the rocks.

The Monroe Moon
In glamor-light of sunset
a new crowd of cumulus clouds arrive
and revive a sepia sky-scene—
unworldly woolgatherers gather
spinning fantasy fluff into quixotic yarns
of debutantes dancing with honeymoon hunger;
their dewy eyes blurred by the sawdust of stardust
pseudo-princess-pleasure-seekers

Ongepatshket Torqued Skewed Reflection
Ongepatshket torqued skewed reflection

This Distance Between Us got me feeling distant
You got me feeling oh so distant
I don’t want to be here this instant
You can make your little love moves elsewhere…
Because you’re doing it right in front of me, I swear
Maybe I shouldn’t care
