There, at the table. Eat or play. Group it.
Bracelets hold us together and drag us...

Awaiting a growth spurt that never happened

When a boy,
I wanted to be as tall as my father
(he passed away October seventh

who stood at his prime
about six feet and...

Ongepatshket torqued skewed reflection

When e'er I summon fat chance
to empower me self with courage

Smelly Stuff Absorbed 

There are many words for those excrements that appear on the fabric in
incremental solid and deliquescent motions because ingestion fulfils that
autonomous need to shed ablutions but here I declare ‘Waste not Want...

The clocks upon the wall are stopped,
they haven’t worked for years.
It could be any time in Tokyo, 
in London, Paris or New York.

It’s late, and deadlines, met or missed, 
are past. The news is done,...

Paternal Grandfather Aaron Harris...

Lovely bones long since disintegrated
into dustbin of genealogical history,
if still alive would rank as oldest person
clocking another one incremental increase

If you feel we evolve by chance,
here’s something that you must decide:
the type of steps that you will dance
explaining how blood cells divide.

Now only mammals do this split
which seems odd on the face of it.

The Mechanics of Time 

Time is a given; a constant except when every clock you have displays a different time.

Daylight Savings Time, spring forward; an hour lost,
gone, disappeared,
vaporized into nothing but molecules of super-charged air.

Master the art of showing up. Start small and scale up. Some of us are great at showing up for others, but not so good at putting ourselves first. 

Why not think of a few...

Predetermination of Lovers

Proactive on the lips of such sensual passions
Scavenges through follicles design
To written archangels of expression

Such are the hungry beats and pulses that evolve
In contemplation
Of Amours encounter with her skin

Countenance and coveted demonstrative 
Spills...

Lines reign rectangular beyond widely 
sombre dour density of inhabitants 
Living rendered responsible behind wisely 
secure doors definitely insure us

Neighbours harbour unfamiliar stories
Measureless textures hold untapped instruction
Sectioned protected fences forbode inquiry 
Composite dismissed in driveway's...

Evil is incremental
One bullet after another
And after another
And after another
Until there’s a blister
On my trigger finger
Where there used to be a wet print
Of a little kiss
Transplanted to my little girl’s cheek
Before I left for work
This...

Reminiscing past helps to remember;
thinking past events helps to remember
how simple acts brought people together;

Those past acts helped them at their crisis hours.
Timely past actions helped at crisis hours.
Heard their woes, truly tried to dry...

I continue reading Iain McGilchrist's
"The Master [Mistress] and his [her] Emissary,"
a retelling of many RightWing dominant
and LeftWing repressed and suppressed events
anti-ecofeminist
and pro-orthodox patriarchal white privileged histories
of nationalistic fatherlands
written across the individual ego-hearts
and eco-habitats
of every EarthMother...

I intended to say
when I was young
each day felt too slowly incremental
toward my generation's time in Earth's wiser sun,

But my ancient extended hand
keeps writing "exponential"
while incremental
paradox climates of Boomer
boring catastrophic dominance
over shadows summer's equinox of...

Wanting to shrug off this shell, break loose from me
Silence that damn hermit, hiccuping under his tree
Trapped inside too long, dormancy dreams to wake 
Disgorging bubbly lava, fills in soporific landscapes 

Longing to escape soft...

When the poem jumps on you, wholly formed,
Needing only you to let it out.
When you lose track of what the other person's saying,
Because your inner monologue is coming together.
When you forget all else you're doing,

A hint of blush
‘pon the tips
Of leaves still lush
As lover’s lips

A breeze that sighs
As if t’was tired
Of mid-Summer highs
In doldrums mired

A crisped dry smell
Perfumes the air
Clings tight as well
To clothes and hair

A dusk that darkles
With...

By the grave I saw blacken snow flakes
Lightning flashed as I witness
Drawn down from blacken purple skies
Burst of brilliants, winter blast snow blind
Upon a midnight electrics static,
you came gently clanging
Deep into that darkness changing, snow...
