My Most Embarrassing Moment
It was many years ago now, before my wisdom teeth
had forced their way through my big mouth, they were still underneath.
I had an awesome job within the motor industry;
not building them, but selling: an ‘Executive’,...

Hometown Parade
Nothing stirs the languid souls of folks like a hometown parade.
Friends and neighbors uniting to form a colorful cavalcade.
Any special occasion will do such as Veterans or Independence Day,
To uproariously celebrate and put on a...

Netherland
Twixt life and death where few can see
there lurks a place that is not free.
Where souls are bound in endless plight
and roam inanely without light.
Re-living times that long have gone
with screams of past that still...

The Sheepmen
Down by the river in the juniper grove,
An old man in a mushroom using his stove
Cooks mutton and grain and nail clippings from toes
Pigs feet and macabre munchies assorted of those

Yesterday's Dreams
Yesterday's Dreams.
Rolling thunderously into our night
yesterday's dreams wrap themselves tightly
around tired hearts,
casting their cords they latch on to tomorrow
and discharge unyieldingly
with dynamic insight
but do dream on.
Dreams refuse to take second place,
using any means...

Primary Deflections
Those who tell us to be NICE
aren’t
they shout their PC gospel
in your face
while admonishing you for
your rebuttal
They accost each other
like third graders
left alone in the
school yard
and
when cornered
by a simple inquiry
point wildly
SHOUTING
“He/She started it”
for
they cannot abide
the...

I, Zombie, Part I: the Questioning
What has one become?
Do as the Monster chooses
Mirrored in the eyes
Which Daemon will come?
The fiendish mental muses
Inanely arise
Where did it come from?
Short circuits and blown fuses
A malfunctioned mind
Why am I the one?
The object of abuses
No...

Nutty As a Fruitcake
When confused or excited,
Phil chatters inanely.
When he’s irked, he’s not placid;
He gestures insanely.
When he’s full of strange antics,
some folks won’t go near him.
He just gets on their last nerve--
no reason to fear him.
When he makes...

Annoying Walk
Annoying Walk
Annoying things are loose socks
sinking slowly in your shoes
feeling a small stone under your toes
people with jaundiced views
The obvious absence of reason
despite copper fastened truths
Pleasant wee people that smile inanely,
that irritating vitality of youth
Fractured...

I'M So Annoyed
I'm so annoyed
Annoying things like loose socks
sinking slowly in your shoes
a tiny stone under your toes
people with jaundiced views
The obvious absence of reason

an irritating vitality of youth
Fractured graphite...

President Manifest
Crackling sparks flew in diatribe hatred,
Jaw-snapping vitriol, hyena raised hackles,
Secure insecurity giggled inanely,
Bared yellow-bone, fangs of jackals.
Mouth that yawns trapdoor premonitions,
Pandora’s box fixed in cold shark eyes,
Releasing the bats,...

One Way Traffic
Why is it that when I think about you
I find my self inanely grinning
Yet I get nothing back from you
That would get my giddy head spinning
I can’t go on getting nothing back
I have wasted...

Oafishly Awed Driver
At the steering wheel,
I am inanely awed
by how my car greedily gulps down
into its hood that interminable stretch
of gray highway snaking out as a huge,
obsidian conveyor belt
from the edge of the earth
where the rim of...

I'M Not Getting Mad
there is love
in the beauty of flowers petals
there is love
on the flowing rhythm of rivers stream
there is love
in the chirping voice of flying nightingale
there is love
in the whispering of wandering breeze
there is love
