Long Glut Poems

The victim list keeps growing

The gristmill claims another one

Keep your hands in and don't stare

Hollywood is the golden land

The eternal silver screen

But many souls are lost here

A lot of greats or...

I’ve sorted spuds at Cora Lynn, picked asparagus at Vervale, 
Cherries in the Dandenong’s, beans on the Thompson close to Sale,
I’ve picked apples out at Labertouche and made a tidy quid,
But I’ve never picked an...

...When we heard of his loss we took it hard,
at first it was very hard to believe,

Oh, there's lots of talk about the sad end
Of what we call the American dream;
About the fast decline of our morals
And that we're not all we once were or seem.

Yes, the enemy is outside and...

Being an American in Australia isn’t easy,

but I’m trying to integrate;

I’m trying to fit in.

Just one of the boys with all the right expressions

under my belt, like:

Flaming steaks and ice cold drinks
you thought good food had become extinct
until you ate here and gave us a nod and a wink.

The sow beauty queen’s

Before the dark obscures the sky,
I sat gloomily looking out of the window, wondering why

I always wondered where the dirt came from, cleaning had me in a rut.
I don’t allow shoes inside, and with air conditioning, I keep the windows shut.
My mother said it came from dirt goblins, they’re...

Another Sweet Heart Crushed

Another angel lost
By Fate's hot burning brand;
Cheap was the ghastly cost,
unclean the reaping hand.

Another vessel broke
In life's wicked charade;
In blackest of air stoked,
misery on parade.

Another sweet heart crushed
Youthful innocence cut;
By rumor verdict...

December rains
Hurl aqueous tears;
Salty aftertaste

Monsoon season
Wet and wet again;
Abrupt mood swings

Seek knowing
Beyond word count;
Awareness sums

Wet market lanes
Slippery slimy walkways;
Jerky footfalls splash

Bargain hunters
Black Friday sales;
Mob mentality

Hot tea brew
Random conversations;
Drifting away

Rustic tea house
Aromatic fragrance;
Poignant deluge

Elemental harmony
Geomancy fortifies;

Your words hurt.
Heavens doors are shut.
The sorrows that assail me are like glut.
My wrists, I wish to cut.

Hopeless.
Empty lies my cisterns of joy.
In fuitilty I keep reaching out.
Hoping anyone will notice.

Look beyond my smiley face...

But for the vanity of publication, the...
