Long Imprecise Poems

Simon wizard, you poor under his sway
That all things of God, which then of good will
Must be always brides, and you birds of prey

For gold and silver adulterate still,
Now it's time that the trumpet sounds...

Dear neighbors,

I realize we have not met,
other than the guy next door
but that doesn't really count
cause that was just to put up a fence between us,
and I have met Marvelously Mad Max,
behind me, on the...

To witness no trace of a step, that has lingered beneath the dewy lush grass.
Then to gaze upon greatest glory! While creation unfolds right in front of you.
Revealing its treasured secrets, while you stand stunned,...

The Lighter

When the passage of life seem so dark
Filled with agony, regrets and mistakes
Nowhere to turn to, crying for help
Voices end up brown by the whirlwind without response
Ears have been brooked by the cacophony that...

Utterly Forgotten
They set out to make a man like you make a car in a factory
It was a production process starting at step one till the end
When you’re left with the finished product and the...

Things were not advancing much

though we hurtled across the tar;

conversation was grinding to a halt

 & that was something

 I  needed desperately  to avert.

“Ah! Yes,” he interposed quite eerily,

Having clearly read my thoughts,...

Eugene awoke and looked upon
His Mirror in the morning Dawn
He saw himself and stopped to yawn
Then saw instead his friend Antoine.

Well Antoine said ‘come in, come on
I’ll whisk you with this Magic Wand
Then we can...

My fingers brush aside the Sandman’s sleep as I awaken on this April dewy-morn, to find 
myself engulfed in an awe-inspiring ray-of-light…a comforting light, that appears to radiate 
not from the rising sun, but from...

In the temple of silence where you mourn your absence,
The walls dance in shadows of bitterness,
Chalices of dreams shatter with resistance,
In search of the eternal flame of the altar.
Not even pearls are revived,
They whisper not,...

No larger than a grain of rice,
her face is forming; mouth, a slice.
Her heart, a tube, begins to beat;
at one month, things are imprecise. 

An inch now from her head to feet.
Eyes, fingers, toes: not...

Lot of money being made in death sales,
plenty pints of iron-copper deposits
Body bags coin-wrapped
are rolling out of the blood bank sin-ters
to the holey pocket hospitals

Everybody knows the 911 cellular bar code:
Zinc life is an Alloy...

I went for a walk today
But really walking's how I pray
I prayed to God up above
For him to show me how to love
I think I may have done it wrong 
Not just this time but...

What do I know of soul?
Nothing but its close conspiracy with death
As the soul disconnects and flies when we die.
The world's soul can be seen in the clouds,
And death looms and hovers high
Over this tumbling...

No need to break my beautiful sky
It is better to tell a little lie
Than to face the music, how and why
Better be the deceptive I
And not to trouble the existential tie

We are programmed for enjoying...

It's out there somewhere,
that marginal place where the elastic nature
of truth, reality,
the measure and fit of coffins,
baby cribs,
the doable dimensions of a a plasma screen
according to its scope, sufficiency, and relationship
to a plausible accommodation of...

an image blue     a memory
 fleeting midst
          black,white &
 colour flows

 shadows stream
&  ideas fly
        free to drift

 afterthoughts   floating
zig-zags
 primitive themes
the unconscious   pre occupied

 the misshapen
          in  designs
to surprise
    & provoke
glimpses
      into the  bizarre

a short breath blown
a frottage
     of connections
         embryonic&

Free to sit on an edge

Free to sit on a sharp edge
looking over the unexplored
destination
many would not  
dare to see, touch and reach 
Inexperienced depth
return path unseen
ascending steep
descending slope
the Rocky Mountain
rampart with 
deep water...

The rugged bark of an old tree
with imperfection due to its cracks
is a wondrous thing of beauty
and it's the imperfection that attracts

We know that a star-shaped flower 
does not make a perfect star
Yet it has...

Some think to utter you are numb is dumb.
  Like a frayed twine, emotion becomes blind.
   Can't cry, could only voice a toneless sigh.
    Death feels like a release,...

A lawyer is an ace of disguise

Blurring lines between candor and lies

Clouding pretense with truth

Dimming wits as a sleuth

Estimating each gray enterprise


Forming verdicts, his art, imprecise

Grounded lawfully in sound advice

He can make each dark smear

In...

The rig rolled through Laredo 
On the road to San Antone,
Its eighteen wheels of commerce
Headed north from parts unknown.
The shipping costs all paid to
Their coyote chaperones.
					
The plan was clear in concept,
But the method imprecise.
If not...

Flickering sparks of creativity
Fluidly flowing phantoms, not tethered by time or logic
Unintelligible shadows twisting about as formless vapor
Teasing me with the occasional glimpse of meaning and clarity
Whispering vague ideas and subtle musings
Swirling memories and lucid...
