Angels and Demons

"Angels & Demons"




The Soul never sleeps
battered and lonely, the lesson 
Life spent in The Hard Sell

Soft-served you become
melting Insomnia 
mouth sucking a loaded gun

blue ribbonned and veined
pulsing electricity 
from heart to lung to brain

you’re a...

Dawning Poetic Dreams

I'm an enlightened 
equinox, strolling in
faded universe, 
dreaming poetry in
susurrus serenades 
of rustling 
ruby-leaves which
whisper cool 
beamish hues
to my autumnal-
quartz heart, 
when the nucleus 
of unborn flowers, 
wishes for a 
meditative 
musing amidst 
this mocha...

I breathe life

Dear me, 
  I breathe you
in the pulse of erased promises ~ 
I'm a shadow in your space 
and not any voice which can be heard
    above restless mists, 
so, when...

The Seventh Seascape


O souls of the Island, 
I have silently 
heard through 
tropical torrents 
and surpassed 
a million miles 
of the milky seas, 
away from 
mint-marine 
silhouettes of my
utopian wonderland, 
as strawberry 
ripples and 
coconut-scented 
musings called...

To the Sable Side of An Iago-American Mirror

Strange, yet a reality none the less:
the oppressed destroying themselves 
for the sake of the oppressor.

The battle of creatures of the sea
has now become that of the humanity
of the conquered land.  A bizarre misguided
catharsis...

September Calm-N

It appears that September is all wrapped up,
tied tight, and intertwined throughout my blood.

I say this because inspiration for September has
never been so fluid, so gushing, and invigorating.

Like presently, I'm feeling the need for a...

Excavating a Pulse

By the sour lemon light
through dusty shafts
and cavernous gulfs of darkness for miles,
she crouched.
Examining the find 
with a paintbrush, not for painting,
but for delicately brushing away debris.
A find such as this coiled shivers 
'round her...

Entanglement

From here to the edge of everything,
From there back to an unknowable beginning,
All things are in intimate contact.
No island isolate,
Though the sea be infinite.

Superimposed, we ride the light
Stretching throug gulfs all around
We touch and move...

Asunder

Whatever holds us together is threatened
by forces rending us apart:
Disparity of wealth and poverty
increase the emptiness of belly or soul.
Migrants displaced, overwhelm
our sense of identity, security.
Extremes of weather surge and 
pull at our foundations; the...

Hunters and the Sea

Below earth, streams release the arteries
 of the undersea teeming with precious
abalone, granite and shells,
as a roulette of lotus defies gravity
soaking on the chlorine of a wind
only piles of sand can bestow…
and  gentle the...

Lovers Leap

LOVERS LEAPb>

How long the days of lovers cleft
The brittle feel of nights bereft
Where restless wind through cedar claws
The rasping void of canyon jaws.

The close up call of raptor hoot
Distant tolls to our melancholic mood 
Cobalt...

The Axe

given all of the pertinent facts
I wonder why we grind the axe

to prove our point of pointed dismay
that things should be the other way

and furthermore we pointedly assume
no change of course will spell out doom

The Consolation of Danger

Too slow is the speed of life, 
so we try to outrun avalanches and race sounds, 
flee into roaring tubes of hungry water, 
brave invisible waves in the sky. 

Too barren is the landscape of...

In the Wake of Tragedy (London: 07/07/05)

The event of tragedy blossomed,
That carnivorous wave of terror,
Caromed through the capital,
Down subways and thoroughfares,
Horrified the gaping senses
And surged through the echoing chasms,
The divides of the unholy,
And the gulfs of the unjust.

In a bleak ricocheted...

Team Work

astuteness to win challenges 
ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives 
ability to work together toward a common hallucination 
drive that allows common people to attain infrequent results

Born For

5/19/17


Things considered occult
Near and far from kids, teens and adults

Working with mulch 
Above a gulch
Had to turn into the Hulk
And catapult
Toward successful results
Then howl at the moon like a wolf
While in and out of gulfs


No...

Bones Ache Yet Heart Sings

Pureness, peace, compassion, bliss, Power, and Wisdom,
That links my reason-spirit body-soul system;
Tells me that my physique is a temple of God,
Though my day-to-day existence is flighty odd...!

Sufferings and pains wreck my delicate physique,
The feasibility of...

I'M a Cowboy-

On the dry Prairie and then Mississippi Valley, yahoo buckaroo;
I come out eating choking dust daily, yahoo;
While on the long open range;
This cattle drive I parade;

Moo-be then dar doggies;
Through open Plains and Gulfs in Valley...

Tower

She is a salt tower, a beacon stood
On thimble cliffs and gulfs of giant steps
Swallowing her apple core and flooding
Night with a mouthful of demons
Lighting the way to perfection 
As she overshadows her own alliances

The mind, a cloud of neurons
Packed snug within the deep grooves of the skull
Tiny worlds reaching out to all their neighbors 
Across great gulfs of the brain
Communicates ceaselessly via little bolts...

Obsolete Alliances

Punishment without a crime is abuse.
Ignoring everything we smother within is neglect.
Breathing water and sand while
The sun is falling, the sky is torn with it.
The gulfs of god have moved.

We are artists. I direct my...
