Aww shucks
Still at the crux
In a state of flux
With reality still out of touch
I've been puzzled much

That's a double dutch
From dawn to dusk
I turned myself into a husk
Just so I...

An abandoned dragonling I did find,
I took him in and built a metal shed
for this dragonling to lay his head;

When dragonling was about four,
books he actually began to read

Sex, Death, and Regeneration, our Transformation

We cannot change  the world, and we can't change another

To see good or bad, as simply, the outcome of possibility...

CLOSED EYES

For a false peace of mind, to what degree, 
will closed eyes spare oneself to see?

A desperate man breaking in, 
Doors are closed in his face,
Qualified but denied, for his ethnic race.

Silent cries of...

I still follow
the blinking spells
of the rose wine sunsets
before surging sandstorms,
believing in the euphoric breeze
floating across the
shivering skyline,
echoing vermilion voices,
lost in the limestone grains,
as questions of change

Upon your departure creeps my secret resistance…
Suppressing, squashing my heart desires is voracious outside influence…
Telling me “Mocked will be your soul’s dowry” lacking acceptance…
So I love...

If wishes were horses
We’d all take a ride and possibly this time
We could come inside
Without picking up a VD-in-the-box
Or a latent addiction we just can’t detox

Mind, body, soul, heart, head and feet
imprisoned deep 
in a...

Standing in the wings, on the periphery

of her cultivated world, inhibited only by

station and space, my head slowly spins

into her orbit, my eye lids twitter nervously,

my titillated ears vibrate, my hands tremble,

inner being disassembles, kneeling...

Thanksgiving Dinner

How many more?
I asked myself, and answers
may be coming into focus with
the flimsy recollection
of that flock of chubby birds
each settling down a final time
upon audacious altars dedicated
to a gentle greed of some implied
profanity, but...
