Santa Claus Was Afraid to Pass Through Port-au-Prince, Haiti

Papa Noël was afraid to pass through on Christmas Day
In the streets of Port-au-Prince. Bullets were being fired in droves
Sporadically, haphazardly. Many people were hiding under beds
Naughty terrorists are like dogs, hyenas in vile forests...

I Am Not Your Daughter

I am not your daughter
I will wear pink and red together
Just because they don’t match
I will dye my hair black

But because I know I’m not a blonde...

The Eye of the Sea - Part 4

cont'd
These anguished howls that knew no bounds,
Continued for hours without count.
‘til a silence as deep as eternal sleep
Enveloped the ship in its gowns.

And amidst the gloom, exhumed from the tomb,
A shaded and ghostly shape,
With cobwebbed...

Father

I must confess that I once dreamt
Of a knight of noble honor
He existed in the first specs of my memory
Which grows weaker as my mind grows ever-expanding chasms.
He was there that day, in the field

Data

It’s frustrating, isn’t it? 
Creating meta hypotheses based on observations and data,

Quantum particles change behavior when you are looking at them versus when you are...

Orphaned Slab

They call me a foundation
once supporting siding and stone
wire
plumbing
shingles

Through the doors of my house
trailed family and friends
across kitchen floor
slanted slightly
letting Benny’s agate...

After

Day One

The bomb when it fell sent the planet to hell 
With unrestrained retaliation 
The damage was done and the end had begun
With no hope of human salvation

I woke with a scream from that God...

On a Good Note

7/21/22

Can't always be a fair bout
Got to air it out
Very little I've cared about
There's no need for prayers or doubts

You say I am, yet to me you sound delirious
I can't take you serious
One of many...

Tight Spaces

Tight Spaces 

I wriggle through the tight spaces, 
moving between these fussy wise cracks,
all in forward motion, my forward goal,
moving towards a light beyond, way up ahead.
A dimming glow, like a watery eye,
lubricating and easing...

War Is Where Nobody Wins

War
Is where
Nobody wins
And everybody sins
At the unbeautiful bar
War is hell on earth
At birth
God created humans
To be better than the lions
And the other nefarious predators
That’s a given
War transforms young men
And young women
Into absurd killers and murderers
War...

Difference Between Knowing and Wanting

Being and knowing the vast difference
between what I know and think I am

I can quite honestly say this about and
in regards to myself

When it comes to culture and the fineries
of all life has on offer

Date Night

I want a date
Where we start
Awkward
And become age old
Friends by the end of it,
Not a
Half-hearted
Love story
Written
In its entirety
Before we’ve even
Begun.

I want some
Smiles
At god-awful jokes,
Coffee (caffeinated)
At 3 in the morning
When we watch the sun
Come up,
Dawn breaking...

Illusion Is Fading

My illusion is fading as life slips away
Like a snake sheds its skin that gets lost though each day
Still begins with a sunrise, of course! I awake,
Life's past lessons less certain, though I may yet...
