Long Icebound Poems

Muscles bulging, sinews stretched, I know this ship inside out.
Every rivet I have pounded is to help me to get out.
This ship is new and will take me, to a life I am desperate for

Ursus Maritimus ...

I entered your world in quietude, slipping through the granular, soft.
          Long slats to feet parting the frozen. Cold of a previously unknown

Two true taboo nocturnal friends
Bedeviling the vernal places;
Un-men unto un-town's undead ends,
Under wrinks in mansworld's faces;

Take care me boys, wear Wolfrat clothes - 
Make sure you're tooled - tooths fully bloodied?
Put yer foot in ther...

FLUNG
against the drab ashen phonon sky
WEIGHTED
with the ghostly iron clad jaws
of bitter winter's grip
BITING
the feather-flared Doves
gravid with
FATIGUE
in the ill-laden onerous air

The rough coated dog
with ice-tipped ears
COLLAPSED
in a ravine of surrender
to the corridor of street gutters
SEEKING

Lament

Brooding days,
     Vanquished in the unconnected gloom,
            Shower frost,
Standing watch at dawn to pierce the morning
With an artic tempest,
Swirling ‘cross...

Sapphire aspects
lapse beside the window,
which plummet onto a surface
of what may be untouchable

Icicle tears dissipate slowly
behind suspended doors of heartache,
in which his mind falls faster;
he cannot relinquish lurid oppression

Rapidly descending,
perception wanes in sultry winterkill;
his hands...

I’m that lost gem buried deep in the dirt
Spiritually condemned but my soul wasn’t hurt
I’m that underground king that ain’t been crowned
Frozen in time for a crime-icebound!

I’m that melody you play on your guitar
Universal poetry...

Nestled with the glittering elements, 
I ponder the immortality of the senses—
my lucidity twirls,
as pirouetting flakes through
sapphire mist amidst cyanic windstorms, 
drifting like arctic embers, 
towards cerulean twilight skies, 
beyond frost covered pains, 
littered across...

Icebound winters stay freezing cold.
Caress the heart and free the soul.
Icons of winter amazement,
Chilling since mankind lived, ancient.
Luscious lights, a lovely dreamland.
Endless wonder sparkling, grand,
Sometimes requires help from man.
 
Sunshiny Florida can get cold. 
Picturesque...

Through an ice age
Now the icebound world was completely 
Melted to show the bone structure of
Algonquinsaurs

No head
The bone structure is
Pushed to the ground
By his two skinny legs

Who was he?

-Was he just a baby who's about...

The Heart of Spring

Spring's heart slips through small winter cracks
Breaks through brumaled icy attacks
Coaxes snow and ice - melt away
Ignores icebound pleas to stay
Hoary whispers silenced - turned back.

Spring dances through towering clouds
Selecting raindrops for...

WICKED AFLOAT
