Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 5
He sung all the day, all the night of the fourth,
Endlessly, relentlessly, angrily and passionately
Deafening my ears in the wet sugar of his words
In an eternity of hours,
Slowly and dopily, darkness billowed away
Sifting along to...

Dawn Forever Rising
Dawn Forever Rising
It starts
Street lights fade
their tiny soft-winged tenants flee
checkerboard facades change
last night's illumined squares now dark
become but yesterday's portals
some polished
some weather streaked
all reaching to reflect first breath
Steam ascends from the city's vacuum
gratings rattle with...

Part One of They Made Love Uninterrupted As the Monsoon Thundered and Volcanoes Erupted
From across the world
And against all odds
Their prayers were heard
By a Love-struck God.
He heard each's mirrored plea
For someone who brings out the best in me
A caring heart to fill my aching abyss
With passionate lips and...

City Lights
I live between tonight and tomorrow..
I dance upon the valley that separates adulthood from recklessness.
I find myself in the city lights,
caught between my mother's nightmares and my freedom.
My mistakes stay in...

Beach Walk
On an early morning walk of coffee and salt
under a sullen sky filled with the tridents of wings,
I add my footprints beside a blowsy sea (praised be
Poseidon,) that accepts the given of a northeast...

Cbt Therapy
There are people with this condition
And many people are not aware
This is not mental sub division
Join me and show you care
They suffer from sleepless nights
But they are not insomniacs
They remember flight or fight

Truck Stop Time
Truck Stop Time
The frozen wind cracks its whip
And slits my darkened lips
One on top of the other, dry.
The warm blood hardens scabs crusty on my
Four o’clock shadow
Four o’clock a week ago.
Eyes half open
Two thirds...

For Love of -----
In a house by a highway by a railroad
Eyes open to a self-set sleep-destroying buzzer
That waking mind impudently pretends
To ignore.
Penetrating the window barrier
The air conducts a heavy diesel lullaby.
Over...

Short and Long
Some people have a short attention span,
others have long-term capability
So for the sake of some of you,
I'll get straight to the point
As for the others,
I'll give a more lengthy point of view
I write short poems
for...

Nip At the Cauldron

To Sleep
Sleep's suspended awareness as nothingness reigns.
It's when bedding is mussed and disheveled is hair.
It's a welcome escape, anesthetic for pains,
And a physical must--time for rest and repair.
Sleep's a snooze or repose, nodding off, or a...

All I's On Me
Ideas instantly infest imaginations
& it could lead to inqueries
From imbusiles with iffy intelligence
There indecision will never get em
In position to be anything more
Than inconsistent, if that
Still irritated with my own irresponsibility
As an individual I...

The Good Ship Dreamtime
This is the good ship Dreamtime
And she sets sail every night
Weighing anchor for her cruise
With the fading of the light.
Her passengers are all dreaming
That they are all still awake
Suffering from insomnia and waiting
For the arrival...

Insomniacs Curse
Sounds that aren't there
Rattling inside my exhausted brain
Tossing turning
Thinking about yesterday
Tomorrow
Things that will probably never happen
Heart is racing
I try to breath through my nose
Like a freight train it comes out my mouth
Please God calm...

Perspectives
I might have seen,
(not on a movie or television screen),
but had looked where the mind flickers
when I am not there
to block the view.
In that place, where my dreams

Civilisation of the Highest Disorder
A god's dream is existence
In the hearts of these amnesic men
Most are insomniacs.
Lackadaisical,
whose survival
would always be undermined.
Then we colonize
Make them walk on their feet.
Blinded by their ego,
we neo-colonize
And I think, they still need to...

Faithful Duplicity
In the depth of darkness sounds, words, just words of meaningless consequence
Never was there a line so cold, so still, overflowing with too much to hold
Elegant lies weaved into one, the crash comes soon as...

4 In the Morning
At 3am you become your own philosopher, categorizing
the different genres of humans and wondering
if you fall even remotely close to anyone on the spectrum.
You debate with yourself the meaning of life, again,
and then regret everything...

The mind of a braniac
Riddled with ritalin
Taste that don't waste that

Space out now pace back
Pen never sleeps
Psychoanalyze insomniacs

The mind of a scaredy cat
Feared the present so
Regressed to the past

Escape From Chestnut's Edge
The split level blinks
at Chestnut End under
twilight's tremble, ripping me,
the oily menhaden bait,
from the under boot
The Chestnut dwellers bold
interrogative flushes him down
then plunges-up the flotsam
village scrawler
the way you talk
to a blooming...
