This Poem May Kill Me, Or Not
Notes: I am putting the notes upfront, suicide is no laughing matter, however, anything that makes it something that can be discussed I think is a good thing. Humor really is an aid to many...

Pavement of Repetition Part 1
Walking the path each day
introverted thoughts in
cased in my skull
a boneyard of ebbing
memories and thought-processes
back slightly hunched over
eyes to the ground
seeing earth, stone
cracks, grass, flowers
bird droppings, dog's as...

Darkness Before Dawn
Day or night all the same
Clock ticks to put hour its name
Steps i take are all counted
From bed to balcony no railing mounted
I breath air to recognize the season
And pray god to gift me the...

The Toy Collector

He holds the bear gently in his old wrinkled hands as he gazes into its kind beaded eyes. The toy collector sees love lined in its double stitches and his childhood in the busted...

A Portrait
The restless night had ended
abruptly. Caught between dreams and
consciousness, the town was arching towards
the sprinkled light of dawn. A perpetual regularity
reigned over the dusty path that led wayfarers and commuters ...

Idiot Lights
The trouble with idiot lights,
You see, it’s a problem
That goes, perhaps,
Farther than me.
There's abundant ignorance
That floats in the bog
In a kingdom where machines
Can measure breath’s grog.
More than vast numbers
Aggregating in crime,
There's a feeling that
What is...

Juxtaposed Awareness
JUXTAPOSED AWARENESS
On and within the fullness
of this beautiful sunshine day,
I peacefully sit here pondering
the present chaos of the world.
How awe confusing…it all is–
outside, flowers are blooming,
birds and butterflies are soaring,
and the quiet wind...

Green Eyes
You wore a green shirt,
as I remember.
It was bright and lit up your eyes.
Your smile scrunched, your eyes narrowed
sweetly, like you knew what you were doing.
You sat to my left, I was scared,...

The Sunday Morning Trainer
She says she tries to be both tender
and challenging with herself,
to fall less,
to dance more,
to help others fail less
and athletically prance more.
As she drives past the library,
closed for Sunday liturgy,
she sees the Seventh Day Adventists
on...

White Line Fever
White picket fence in the rear view
Coordinates in the GPS
He honks as he leaves the driveway
For a three day trip to the west
They call it the white line fever
And it's addictive as crack cocaine
The need...

Goosey Lucy
In a humble hamlet, not so grim or glum,
Lived a goose named Lucy, quite the funny one.
With feathers fluffed and waddle wide, she'd roam about,
Her honks and hijinks would make the townsfolk...

Spit Shine
Polar theology
Cold-hearted hate-based belief
Frigid permafrost principles of sub-zero greed
Rigid igloo authority
Ice fortress border policy
Snow mountain wall ain’t color passage easy
Refrigerator thought orthodoxy:
Sunflower faces were born to spit shine eternally
Void shoe box coffin space ... crypt...

Mea Culpa
MEA CULPA
If it is dirty, yours truly.
A child is crying, what did I do?
A cloud blocks the sun, must be my attitude.
A word said unkindly.
They must have learned from me.
For I am as unrespectful as...

RHAPSODY OF THE NIGHT

Darkness she dawns her costume preparing for her play.
The stars gleam and glitter on the blue stage.
Moon shines, she's happy to play the part of spot light.

Autumn
How can it be that autumn so soon again is stealthily approaching,
With its pleasing sounds, scents and varied hues steadily encroaching!
The bouquets of summer have faded and their petals they have shed,
Now, the maple and...

The Road To Home
Oh, My Dear homeland,
I yearn to reunite with you,
Not for your love alone,
But to tread the weathered path, winding beneath my village,
Laid with stones and scattered remnants of time,
In moments of disarray and wandering,
It unfailingly...

Radio
"Radio"
Snippets of classic jingles ring diabolically in our brain
Converging good tunes for bad products
Their repetitive nature send shoots rattling and ringing
Over and over again, gee, have a little music with you commercials!
Morning shows ruled by...

Tolling Mercy
Shards of distress pierce me
when probing memories for
purpose in mournful
deeds; stingy cords dangle
from teetering curtain rods,
begging me to pull.
Macaroni starch drips into the
sink in slow drips, marching
along with pattering
pings in the tin basin, making
my yellow...

The Slopes of Kilimanjaro
From the lofty snowcapped peaks
of Kilimanjaro
The morning mist envelopes its verdant foothills in a tight embrace,
No need to hurry, this is not a race,
Beads of sunlight dancing across the glistening dew.
As the plains of Amboseli...

Stone Bones
Gray shrouds cover my way
sets the tone for the day.
Our silent sun sends
rays running round corners
slowly beams burn off -
melting morning misty mind.
As I tread these stone slabs
rapt in wonder of this awe,
great stone bones...

Rude Drivers -Spelling Edit
Some drivers really make me want to scream.
I’ll do some little thing that they don’t like.
They honk or give the finger. It’s so mean.
I’d like to yell at them to take a hike.
Of course I...
