Long Genuflection Poems

"Sick Art"



I walk the streets
still and quiet
I do not lie
I do not betray
what the heart belies
pickled kidneys 

I am a ghost
of my former self

ears lent to hear 
the sweet music
of the sounds so fraught
caught up...

Farmer Fred was out in his field making inspection
When I snuck up on him without detection
I stated my greetings with great voice inflection
Which caused Fred to jump in the opposite direction
Then he smiled and made...

"Cherish Armour"


She 
wears 
Her armour,

LOVE -

draped like chain mail
shields You 
with Her heart

When She is drowning
She will throw You to the sure
safe for Your future

And She will cry of lost children 
morbid oblivion, 
damnation and...

This hunger artist cannot read

to satiate an immense appetite 
and unquenchable thirst 
to acquire learning from 
the millenniums gushing fount of 
cumulative chance revelations, 
(or deliberate intent to...

inside the church of me
a heart on fire blazes brighter 
than any morning star you could capture 
to wish a life away, a Lawrence forest ripped,
lit like a funeral pyre I wish...

We now get along swimmingly
analogous to this bro and his older sis
on the cusp of our gifted silver married years

"Brave Heart"



O what Leonine love
could sway 
iron clad heart
to move closer 

reflection 
watches stealth like
under cover 
kneads softly 

some kind need 
from altered
genuflection
wrong gone right

an eye remains
genuine to see 
evermore clearly
the truth of light

words from...

"The New Perseus"



Lambs sacrificed daily
fresh and calculated
blood riddles the 3 fates
of the new Perseus 
son of Zeus
wrists held and 
genuflection tongues out 
searching for 
good mannas 

the weak States 
pretend to lead
they’re just 
Babylon bent...

“50 Words for Poe: Numbers”



He was given a number
He counted the days
just number after number
Finally arrives the day he is free
The Nightmare never ends
He is not free to be He

His heart sits in a cell...

When that storm arrived,
the entire congregation 
in genuflection 
knelt before 
Her poetic prayers,
they saw themselves shining,
eventually, in Her reflection 

scandalously quiet 
like perculating thunder, 
their minds cracking open,
their whole chicken little sky 
falling closer ever...

Twisted Blistered dance with me
Come on Brother Snow get off your genuflection mojo knees

constantly, equatiously

for reasons that cannot be spoken
but that can be further diagrammed

a walker, I.


A walker fancying himself
a hiker, on a walk, self-narrated as
an expedition.

The incline is gentle, consistent,
insistent and yet i insist,
as i am inclined to do,
to think it steeper.
In fact, to think deeper,
about most things.

"SUPERSEDURE"

And in a different time she would have,

Removed by hands of time.

Lost warrior


There is a grave where my heart was once in peace.
It has been used and consumed, taken piece by piece.
Now the hands that want to take my only happiness,
Reach into the black hole inside...

You marketing types love us.
Blue all over, fear of nothing a man can throw,
Quick to bow down when the boss come by...

"Ten Floor Love Story"



Blue Sky 
breezes through 
the windows
clouds carry 
the never-ending 
piercing 
genuflection 

Cry 

Scavenger Seagulls
form a halo
angels barricade 
the honour guard
circling round 
the Sister for stoning
holding hands 

with the Resurrection 

Man

storm, weight of rain sloshes
