for resilient employment
by following mere capital short-term acquisition norms
for sacred vocational gravitas,
and maybe a smidge of gratitude--
where "smidge" is warmly defined
as the opposite of cold hegemony.

Is wishing
Denying?
Do I
Deny You?
A dirge by the pier

when You are not here,

Their darkened, dusty, empty hearths -

Before the pipes awaken;
Carry close
Precious flint and tinder
Next to the wildly...

Each Charon poised with sallow spear along the River:
Austere laughter of headless boughs

Soul DeadI do not know
Whose excitement was the greater
My dad’s or mine
As we boarded the bus
To a long-lost dream
Of verdant fields
Rich with the fruit of native soil
Of crystal clear streams
Where laughing youth
Was spent in carefree
Abandonment.

Artumes ArmiesHarken...those hollowing drums
Over cold vales so beat,
Exhorting a multitude of glistening
Star-tipped spears,
As marching over shattered landscapes
In shinning replete:
Crunch Artumes eternal legions
Across the snow bound years.
Casting down from the mauve
And cloudless heights

Knowing,
