and encapsulates healthy fixation
why I can spend countless hours

plus aiming to craft satisfactory
poems or prose as an avocation
to share...

Management here at
Highland Manor Apartments sent out word

Pre-puberty years
Playful innocence 
Warm ready embrace
Quarrels, aberrations 
Rapidly erased
An uncluttered mind
Open, forgiving heart
Reborn each morn anew

Testosterone levels high
Feral instincts prevail
In the game of one-upmanship 
Need to win...

It’s useless to take a stand.

Existence of man is a sham
Even the beasts...

Summoning the face in the Mirror the man calls
“Mirror, mirror on my tasteless bedroom wall,
Am I the only righteous dude who’s got it all?

Disaster knell, disaster bell, disaster cell
Fly into my matrimony faster
When in a short time spell
I choose to plunge my home into a cluster

Where nonsense and indifference
Grow a foothold
Steeped in a circumference which in one insane...

A din ensued
my imaginary brood
with a good dose of misapprehension
hauled out their toys
and with a deafening noise
held band practice to demand my attention


My head resounded
I was astounded
as my voices insisted space be freed

Contrary let’s have a conversation  
Let’s speak to euphemisms 
And pregnant letters of anagrams 

Sentencing fixation declaring persona non grata
Heads chopped for Eskimos

God we have appreciated and applaud;
Is our Holy one who we love and laud,
And we heard;
His every word;
Removed sins when from us were shod.

Always remember what we did envision;
We were determined to make a decision;

I am nothing

pariah, outcast, a worm

I have nothing to offer, nothing of value

except these words

in your chocolate brown eyes I envision

like a stable marriage, well adjusted...
