Long Impostor Poems

The mask, with eyes brighter than the most brilliant star, 
Reflecting the sunshine & blue Ocean beyond, his eyes twinkle

Can this election be invalidated
Due...

libertine sour 
like Lemon Grass
crushed and burnt 
acrid smoke...

Harry (written by Steven Cooke)

He stairs through the window
In wheelchair he knows,
Gabriel is just a pause behind him.
His last duty, to open a door in his mind
Of memories torn from 1917, where he left,

No, he said, I am watching the geese!

As modern Christians, we overlook
the meaning and purpose of Good Friday,
when Christ was crucified on a dreary day...
to bear our sins on His shoulder.


From the Via Dolorosa to distant Golgotha
too heavy and painful was the...

On the mound of Black, In the tempest of Blur,
Can you distinguish the sounds of my subterranean Frustration?
Bringing up the rear contact with all living Forms.

My inner most thoughts sometimes holds me confined

To dealing with my deeds
I get down on my knees
And ask the LORD please

Jenny slides the poppy across her lips
television blast out a dose of amphetamine
bites the midnight smoke
acrid windscreen of her dreams

Fraud, 2012
V. Ortiz Vazquez

Fraudulent the given path
Trail lined with nature’s flowers
Petals mark the areas to be follow
Thorns mitigated
To move forward through the given path
Written by her hands, she continues her journey

Steps by steps, moving forward

You came to me without warning 
Took up occupancy without permission 
Your purpose hidden from the host 
In a dark cloud of anger and confusion

But you did not come alone 
You brought along a companion...
