Tomorrow I will bring down hail like Egypt’s never seen,
On plants and trees and man...

Breaking apart by the minute minutes 
Feeling myself, departing from misfits 
Bold and brazen I wish to be so madly 
Enviless and free I want to be badly

I'll drink to that and be a fat...

 The stranger treads the sidewalk, 
Walking his happy-go-lucky canine
Solitude is preserved in him…
He’s as hard as a rock
Faint melody is heard on his cell phone 
As quick as lightning strikes
Acting chicken with his girlfriend,
Calling...

Can it be done? Possibly
Will I do it underneath the moon and sun? Probably
Honestly
It all use to bother me
I was born in it, but I don't want to die in poverty
For a long time I...

On my side of the hemisphere, Old Man Winter begins in December
and meanders through the earth with cold, ice, and snow. With ice-

Dear exam
Sincerely I don’t hate you, I just don’t like you
To be fair, I don’t think anybody does

A series of poison in carefully measured dosage
Administered by well-trained...

because she knew the ways of critters and birds.

She knew how to read...

acoustic guitar in his hands
with hair falling down or
shoegazing with tight black jeans or
black leather, his
bulge showing,
thick, long,
like a python growing &
slinking down his inner thigh
&
sweat rolling down or
perhaps the oil that gets sprayed on
him...

Tears of gory guilt
Run down my bark, a nectar
For the nightingale

No where to hide now
The sheer shame embraces me 
Don't know what I know

Fears of warriors 
In freeless tree forever...
Their eyes carved outside

Pupils follow me
Wherever...

"Their Queen Pheromones"

Nectar

foraging 
honey bees
with components 
of their 
Queen Pheromones

the butterflies beckon
their inner wasps
to sup on clover
four leafed, beds of velvet
green virgins unseen

herein slumbers
far too gone 
to lie in wait
love expells

Why do I take from the poor, for the rich?
Why do I steal from those who I love?

When I disrespected my gifts from you.
I told you that Saint Nick...

When I gazed at the sky,
Was devoid of celestial bliss to the eye,
Pitch dark, as dark as a black lie.

Obscured 'above the clouds' were,
Moon of my emulations and stars of materialism,
Rising upto infinite expanse and...

As sure as the sun will rise each morn,
And the flowers of all hues will bloom,

For there's no escaping love!

You may hide in the toil of the day
And cower behind...

I was once alive,
Within this plane of existence.
Displaying my mighty fighting skills
Flowing like water, I hit as hard as a rock.
How their radiant eyes gleamed, 
Watching me, observing me.
Viewing my furious battles between thee,
I sink...

You know it is darn cold when the woodstove is going
But the propane furnace just keeps on blowing
When your nostrils freeze outside in the winter air
Ice is curled hanging with snow...

Safeguarding


In the blink of an eye
My world crumbled.
Catastrophe struck my life
Leaving me numb.

My soulmate, my childhood mate,
Whose shoulder I had oft wept on,
Who had remained steadfastly loyal,
Just vanished out of my life.

My soul mate loved...

Like a anvil upon a paper plate,
A crushing force it does affect,
A mighty power I must respect.

It takes away my pain and strife,

I thought my creativity was dead, 
and I would never be able to write again,
I’ve experienced writer’s block 
my brain was hard as a rock.

Tossing to and fro,
I wonder which way to go.
Rhyme,
verse,
narrative,
nothing was positive.
