Long Hims Poems

“Frequency” 

we are separated 
from the others
by a thin membrane

electromagnetic

we are receptors
unignited ununited
only tuned into our own

frequency

existing to be lit
the fuses touching
reaching delicately 

that which we do 
and do not see, 
believe

answers embedded

I don't know,
S/He said,

(right winged left
exhaled downstream
past everyone's egopaled head)

If God is dead
and also much too Capitalistic,
LeftBrain dominant hegemonalistic

(like water to a philosophical shark)

If God is straight
and white
and a patriarchal supremacist accountant
calculating monoculturally ambitious values

Then...

He's been struggling with depression,
She said, so then have I.

It's our bad news
that competing depressions
breed more contagiously
than our cooperation feeds happiness.

Yet our good news grows:
Depression and positive impression
are equally contagious passions
pastimes
eruptions into changing flowstreams of...

I saw the top twirl
As he whispered over again to the crowd,
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world”
I breathed in his air as he did the same to me.
I could...

In the Beginning was the Word

Just a sound really

A somber echo into the abyss
that kickstarted the whole universe

(was the noise beautiful? was it ugly?
who's to say for sure...

...it was the First)

But it did its job
It...

Mild dystopian cracks open 
cobwebbed laden figurative door 
to my super charged 
subconscious shrouded self - 
portal carelessly left ajar
steeped in dark shadows, 

wherein spooky monsters creep 
along edge of night, 
outer limits of twilight...

Most folks I loved
died when I was in my thirties.
Not just people,
but our San Francisco bohemian mecca lifestyle,
our 365 days and nights celebration
turned into an epidemic of waiting
and watching
and mourning our losses,
wondering about possibilities of...

DOES ANYBODY HEAR HER

Under the cover
The super elegant gorgeous beauties adored,
The smiles you see day to day
That slow motion of the eyes, sparkling as they blink,
The soft tenderly touch of her hands... 

But there... in...

It's funny
How did a computer
A silly computer
A flat screened computer
Become my obsession?
I wake up
There it is
Waiting
Begging 
Inticing
"Turn me on"
"play with my buttons"

I look at the bright screen
Remembering the Poltergeist warning
"Don't go into the light"
But it's...

The dreaded Cancer, seems to me,
gets much too much publicity.
In restaurants, both fast and fine,
at parties up and down the line,
in hurried conversations at
the place I buy food for my cat,
the barber or the hairdressers,
wherever...

I have often wondered on a silent night when stars are all I see
If there is someone on a distant star who’s looking up at me…

I wonder…looking up…how many life forms can there be…
and if...

Kitty kitty liver spots from over drinking  
Hanging out down town at the local litter box  
Whiskey sours and meows by the hour
He calls his...

PRICE LESS
And I, stood staring at the door,
I knew he would walk into,
Hoping like many times before,
He would look me through,
Like a woman, his woman,
Hoping it’s his turn,
To love me like his only one,
Love me...
