Long Inadequately Poems

It's weird
and sometimes wild
living with a non-LeftBrain verbal dominant
aspiring child,
now young adult

I find myself waiting for him
to nonverbally connect
and correct me
about my patriarchal domineering
economic and political ableist sins
of felt omission from commercial value
and, perhaps worse,
my...

Talking about it just kills me inside
This feeling of wanting to simply hide
My pride is broken...
Words left unspoken...
I just want to get high, high, high
Got to strut my stuff - can’t deny
Low self-esteem - it’s...

The spouse betook monthly outing

to 3938B Ridge Pike,

Polypaths
lead neuro-systemically back
to Mother/Child original wombed attachment

A remarkably warm
and wet counterpoint
to a sterile anthrosupremacist theory
of Original Separating Sin.

Instead,
in this organic preternatural 
panentheistic
spiritual experience
of win/win healthy wealth,
co-attachment overrides win/lose
zero-sum compromised
competitive relationships

Patriarchal
and capitalist self creationships
come later
as post-partum...

When struggling with addiction
to uncontrolled
and biologically controlling agents
and competitive outside agencies

Earth is helpful in mentoring patience
with failures of humane self-control
to extend,
feed and water
and grow mindbody wealth 
of unwalled health.

So, when possible,
as possible,
extend your compassion
away from...

Waiting for some kind...

being locked within crosshairs
elderly stage, she...

My Kung Fu Chop Suey Present

On my thirty-fourth birthday off to China's best; traveled I went
So very uneventful and unaware I blithely lost all my well-earned money and spent,
As I entered into a Chinese restaurant...

From sunset 'til dawn, how do I love thee
To the music of the cooing doves song
From the crack of dawn with sunny skies or gray
With each thought that passes into light
Of matter gray, each breath...

In the desert of my mind
Are nomadic dunes of ineptitude.
I traverse these dunes
Seeking words
Like a thirsting man after water.
My search is slow and ponderous
As my feet sink deeply
Into sands of frustration.
Drops of imagination
Fall from my...

To anyone who has lost a loved one to drug addiction.

Have you ever experienced a lovers electric caress,
freely given from the heart, no semblance of duress.
Gaze briefly into the cracked mirrors, of my now tortured...

prior to the fighting. Now it was a waste land of chaos and destruction,
as far as the eye could see. When taking a closer look,...

A saccharine rueful cry rode upon the wind,
   not a howl but a solemn ceaseless wail of tears

a farewell to blended melancholic images and visions

They prayed a Buddhist prayer:

And may we cooperatively dwell
in Earth's great equanimity
free from attachment
and dispassionate aversion.

As regenerations continued this bodymind practice,
MotherEarth Attachment transposed
disassociated from healthy relationships
with all empowering
and enlightening creatures,
and was replaced by "greed"
and correlated...

Hell freezes over. Fire into ice. 
Ice…but without the chill, the cold.
I try to rethink how this happened. 
How a world so green, so vibrant, become hell. 
And now a pale white wasteland.

Agony to relief....

Lord,give us the strenght to go on...
as we walk amidst many dangers,
and the enemy could be one of our own;

The Flash of my eyes
Does nothing to arise
An element of surprise
Or even evoke
Delectable daydreams
In the sweat streaming down your backside
All I can do is keep
Pumping the beat for what it's worth
Once the throbbing drips
And these...
