In a Stolen Moment
In a Stolen Moment

In a stolen moment,
when the clock’s hands complete their inevitable course
and sleep is the night’s dark spell,

Cowpoke
Cowpoke
by Michael R. Burch, circa age 16
Sleep, old man...
your day has long since passed.
The endless plains,
cool midnight rains
and changeless ragged cows
alone remain
of what once was.
You cannot know
just how the Change
will rape the windswept plains
that you...

Ruing the Emotionally Prosperous Papa Razz Zee Life I Did Not Live
Arduous agonizing affliction

aghast to exhale lest...lose
desperate clinging clutch
held by bloodied cracked fingernail
phantasmagoric tendrils constrict
stoppering me to whisper or wail
yawning abyss menacingly beseeches

cumulative (lifetime's worth) travail
freefalling, pirouetting unnervingly,
unstoppably, unwaveringly... zipping

A Philosopher’s Grief
We sit together in the shadowed halls beyond time—
Plato, Socrates, Spinoza, Protagoras,
Aristotle, Pythagoras, Kant, Descartes, Aquinas—
our words once rivers,
now dust in the mouths of men.
I, Plato, speak first:
“I left you the Sun,
the realm beyond your...

My heart knows how love hurts
Blush of wild fling casts dirt
By day sad dreary hues
By night pain comes on cue
My soul feels turmoil brief
As sadness marks high grief

Zoomanity
Zoomanity
Ponderous pretense
blindsiding any ability to cope, to hope, the
fabric of reality gropes, worn
Torn, promises shredding like swilly alibis
Hoovers and fakers
backing into their mangled apocalypse,
can only stammer and stare
Movers and shakers denying...

Wounded Sigh
The sun has long receded from the sky,
Pallid gloom invades the wintry air,
Morbid silence hangs over him,
Memory sleeps like hibernating toads.
Trees stand bare with no leaves to array,
The Earth lies shielded in its icy...

Broken mirrors crush me under deceptive appearances
Broken mirrors crush me under deceptive appearances,
mutilated wisdom whistles hesitantly,
the heron gropes, flying through fragile fantasies and follies lost in the penumbra
Penumbra that pulses,
words flow like a black river rolling shadows,
Shadows that gaze at me...

SUNRISE
Sunrise, hasten
Your feet to come
For in you the blossom
Of my heart berths
Dusk, the mirth of my heart
Has cocooned, and in frigid
Warmth for sunrise it yearns
For my sunshine to bring.
Sunrise come for my
Sunshine to...

Tiresias, the Seer

Let mind and heart surge piquant pun.
Seer of Greek lore strides in time lost,
Reminds of yore what foresight costs.

Song of the Phoenix
Trodden down and beaten out,
That is me for you and whole of the world.
While inside me I still shout,

Raped, ravaged, killed and...

Feelings Left Unsaid

The gentle touch on his shoulder,
from the woman she now is,

Through no fault of her own,
cancer has taken a twin part of her away
He heaves...

Five Days of Telephonic Hell
Five days of hell
on the phone, selling lies
and pieces of the Titanic carpet.
A sinking ship of a company
