"Exits Exist"



prophecies materialised
bad dreams of tomorrow
arrived vaporising today

the higher ones 
prepared their exit plans
they thought they were gods

but they were just
children playing 
at being man 

insanity is a monster
who no longer sees
exits exist

on bended knee

B is for Benjamin Franklin who invented  the electricity  from the flow of electrons.

C is for Curie, Marie -a...

Pausing on a late trip to South Dakota
I pulled off of the highway
Somewhere in Kansas
And shut off the lights
Reflecting that it might be good
To clear the windshield of bug carcasses
That were only being smeared 
Into...

Now, unlike my usually trenchant literary librettos, i regale the unknown (tum me) reader for savoir faire articulation, elocution, and indomitable tour de force proffered by spectrum of bounteous expropriated hegemony rightful to Mother Nature....

A whale in a pail is far more active in a gale or in copious amounts of hail. Putting money into sharks is a shifty act involving the shuffling of coats in cloakrooms. And clown...

AT ONE WITH NATURE

~~~~~~~~~~

The sun shines, brightly lights my day. My garden verdant many hues of green. Greater speedwell, resilient, blooms no matter the season. Late spring, early summer it explodes. Late Jack Frost, it...

the blinds die and end of story,
 There is no story...What to talk about?
when there is nothing to talk !!
Keep the silence for the flowers.
and "The smell of lilies and Fridays
And as a target ...

Humans, be not proud
Every human is a farm
Chocolate for animals
To live, eat and survive
Every human, bacteria’s cake
Food for viruses they are
With delicious juicy flesh	
For fungus, fish and ferns
The healthier, the bigger 
The more balanced the...

widgeon… on good days

nuthatches… winter…
feeding stations… eye candy

Dear humans,

I am an octopus and I’m unhappy with how you humans think you’re so great.
You might say I have a bone to pick with you…
which would be true if I weren’t an invertebrate.

I want...

Zebras are stripy I’m sure you can see,
Yaks chewing cud as slow as can be, 
X-ray tetra in the aquarium are seen,
Warthogs with curly, white tusks that gleam,
Vertebrates aplenty, some invertebrates too,
Usually are seen at...

Down by the reservoir of dreams

Waters reflect subconscious streams

The lake’s mirror a mosaic

Wishful well versed and prosaic

Droplets of pain dissolve on touch

Always to soothe never to judge


Up in the sky eagles hold sway

Kindle sweet lullaby’s...

Astounding, amazing abyss
Beneath both beautiful and bountiful
Clear, cleansing caverns
Diving dangerously for discoveries
  Enchrusting Echnoderms
  Foraging fish
  Gorgeous gastropods
  Hunting hammerheads
  Intelligent invertebrates 
  Jubilant jellyfish
  Kindred krill

None came to such a remote place
Near Pannawonica in Australia, without access  
No bird has known it, not even a skink
Troglobites live in the dark caves, never shrink 
Humans came with iron mining project...

The first chirp of the robin near my shut window pleaded
The blackbird, song thrush, chiffchaff, and pheasant pleaded as well.
The sunflowers, cornflowers, and marigolds that needed
Prayed for his help; he was as silent as a...

Most animals can-not choose,
They have to breed once yearly,
They must all try to remain viable.
Tiny species will need larger litters,
As tiny babes can, maybe, get eaten!
Lion's only fear, human's
An unknown male lion to.
New males, if...

REMINISCENCES   OF   A   DINOSAUR


Nothing really changes;   each one thinks himself
Slightly better than others of similar type :
“Oh, he’s too  fat ;  she’s gonna be left...

Varied species of the kingdom
Across our earthly home
From sponges to the octopus
Without a backbone

Laying small eggs
Or a centimetre long
Astounding invertebrates
There outer skin is strong

Upon an organism
There they choose to lay
Eggs for a food source
Paralyse their...

Cubozoa, cnidarian invertebrates
Not the jelly you would put on a plate

This cubed shaped medusae, so potent they are
Once stung you will never move far

Their venom so potent that rarely animals survive
If humans are struck they...

Off the San Diego coast
In the California sun
Thriving in it's waters
Deters the Scuba divers fun

An invasion from the deep
In thousands they have come
These carnivorous tentacled invertebrates
In mass, their prey succumbs

Whats made this explosion happen
Of these...

For being incorrect and insane,
Your ideas are shared commonly.
Perhaps you should have stuck with
Invertebrates and botany…

Despite common belief, you argued
That life was not fixed,
And that through observation of generations
They could see this.

Darwin had a great...
