Strange Creatures and the Forest of Egregore
“Strange Creatures and The Forest of Egregore”

when our rosebuds

along the unopened road?
we walk into the
forest alone,
there we meet
strange creatures -
some say

The Forgotten Legion of Rose Thorns
"The Forgotten Legion of Rose Thorns"
Reversing roll calls
the Anti-Hero
jumps through
burning hoops
instinctively
bathed in the magnum glow
designed to fire cartridges
with a kick like a field gun
a bloody victory
is eventually won
lacking conventionality
novel and picaresque
placing bad...

Dead Crush
"Dead Crush"
Oh uplift me woman
if we were to have a
conversation would
bees fly out of your mouth
or just mewling, simpering
watered-down honey
not so pristine, just soft
and somewhat
ingratiatingly tainted
you ply uplifting
romantic notions
like an air...

Moderna Commedia, Third Canto, First Part
Ancora in sogno vaga la mia mente
Nell’ignoto esplorando come Ulisse
Quando uno squarcio si apre immantinente.
Un uomo curvo col cappuccio nero
Che in tempi oscuri per la chiesa visse
Mi si rivolge in modo triste e altero.

Per Chi E' Solo E Non Ama-For The Lonely One Who Doesn't Love
Per chi e' solo e non ama,
ci saranno solo giorni
cosi' lunghi e grigi;
e' tanto facile comprendere la sua noia,
perche' io ero uno di loro, cercando i sorrisi, togliendoli ai piu' felici: forse era invidia!
E' non...

Remember the many kisses we exchanged

Perche' Di Notte Non Riesco A Dormire-Why At Night I'm Unable To Sleep
Perche' di notte non riesco a dormire;
ah, potro' mai sognare un mare scintillante
e stringerti in queste braccia cosi' calde
e non cercare piu' quella luna di neve?
Why at night am I unable to sleep;
ah, could I...

Pulmonary
"Pulmonary"
Revelations burn pulmonary
when all the bees no longer roar
life drowns in blue-green
Clairvoyants dance in time
with prophets to flux events
Light folds Dark inside out
Lizards Popes and Politicians
tread water in their black oceans
looking for an...

Zeus the Philanderer
A poem based on the Greek pantheon:
Zeus The Philanderer
Zeus the philanderer, lust divine,
Maidens fair he did entwine,
By guileful means he won their trust,
Bastard offspring born from his lust.
With swan's guise, Leda he...

Smell of Fresh Mown Grass Last Day of August 2021
Ah... already the summer
approaches closing time,
but yours truly can squeeze
one more rhyme

thus the following lines after...
Brainstorming, concentrating
panning... for poem
idea shattered brew
tilly by deafening seasonal
greensward cutting crew
contracted throughout summer to mow

This Game
Heavenly bodies, heavenly beings;
living entities unfettered by gravity.
Spinning marbles in a universal box.
God’s favorite game,
knuckle busters are smacking planets,
right and left and the debris reforms…
new…marbles…pee-wee dust.
Cat-eyes glow as they sail apart; agate...

Ivan Kotlyarevskiy: Translations
Translation from Ivan Kotlyarevsky
Why is the water so much roily?-
Hasn’t it been shook up by the wave?
Why am I sad and not jolly,
Hasn’t my mother chastised me to save?
Yet, my mother didn’t trouce me-

L'Attesa Si Chiama Tempo-Waiting Is Called Time
Chiunque sente la lunga mancanza
di coloro che ti hanno amato,
non puo' altro che dire a se stesso,
" L'attesa si chiama tempo...
e un breve mese diventa
un'altro anno piu' lungo;
ed altri mesi piu' insopportabili oscurati da questo

Moderna Commedia, Second Canto, Part 1
Tutti sappiamo che la vita è un sogno.
Ora che dormo incontro tanta gente
Le cui vicende raccontare agogno.
We all know that life is dream
Now while sleeping I meet many people
Whose events to recount I covet
Nel sogno...
