Watching From a Skiff On the Ohio River
Herons fragment the mist,
appear and disappear while remaining motionless.
The skiff rocks as a coal barge trundles past.
A dewy sky shivers.
Nowadays he just sits in a boat looking at Ohio.
This morning the sun reached the top...

Between The Covers - Tribute to Rain Literary Magazine
Pull back the covers and experience,
Just how fresh and crisp it is inside,
Discover a poet who once lived among us,
And built community,
Out of encouragement, fun and wondering
Like you, he pondered the mysteries of foreign flagged...

The Great Battleship
THE GREAT BATTLESHIP
Once sailed as the lumbering hulks of the high seas
Fierce winds accompanied most of its expedition
Woozy and exhausted crews grappled the oars and crosstrees
With smoothbore and muzzle-loading guns geared up for a mission
The...

Learn Your Place In Society

Bone Seed
Small rolling hills, valley plots,
nothing regimented,
graves not scattered, but placed
among natural features.
It’s beautiful here
especially in the Fall.
The Maples are tall and burning bright.
There are new graves among the old.
I thank all of them
for being here...

Cruciform I
Am I the only one,
the only one left to carry this cross
through these wasted lands,
these blasted glass riddled sands.
This cross of madness.
Leagues I have traveled...
Long have I forged this burden...

Last Chance Lament
Last Chance,
I passed through you many times and remember you.
You sit on the Colorado Prairie east of Denver at the intersection of two, two lane highways.
In the 1880's you were a stop along the...

My Anger
Patience of accusations begin to thin
As they toss complaints at me from now til then
If i could summarize my existence that easily i would
But another question is that if i even should

Kaki
I still feel that short embrace
Him turning for one last glance
The look on our mother’s face
Her knowing his fate of chance
What is this cruel affair called war
Who could give such credence
To savage acts and laws...

Miracle of Childhood Regained
MIRACLE OF CHILDHOOD REGAINED
Snow - my dream miracle,
To me has always called, never cold.
Serenely reposing, softly refreshing
Like flowing water over a low weir.
Submerging sharp corners; ...

Always called to me, never cold.

Mid-Autumn
Plucked from before the hulks of houses going up
My childhood sea and spot of southern sky
The cornflower eyes northern poets wove into their songs
And eastern poets sang the autumn high
Climbed hills to catch the moon
Timid...

Backslider
6 foot 7 makes self sufficient
Drums pavement clink clanking walking barefoot
On Puddles of thought dried to subsistence
Carelessly focusing on how not to look
Indecisive ones with pure intentions
While restlessly calm fidget sitting still
In comes independence...

Works of Art
Have you ever seen
The portrait of a dog
Painted on the road,
Not in the great tradition
Of living colours as you’d
Expect, but in all the
Terror and detail of
An untimely death?
Have you ever seen
The sketch of...

Lying In Her Long Veils On the Calm Black Water
Lying in her long veils on the calm black water
In a dream I shall feel lull them asleep among the foliage;
pours burning love the devil's paladins;
that by starlight! of black devils and black wolves!

The Ocean
The ocean is vast, large ships traverse its waters
seabirds abound, hunting for fish
distance between continents measure in hundreds
All life is at sea
All manner of vessels is found on the blue water
And even below surface they...

Old War Stories
I am young, a tough nut,
hard to crack.
Thick mud splashes half-blind me.
Bones are jostled, pushed into aching flesh.
I am spun around and dumped,
lifted up shoved back in.
A pummeled nose bleeds into my mouth,
stagger, run, beaten...
