that prickly emotional immobilization
whereby these lovely bones

How Would You Think Without It

I hear some college students claim
they don’t stand against free speech,
all they want to ban is what’s ‘hateful,’
it will ‘improve’ society.

In truth they will do no such thing,
they serve a truly evil cause,
when they seek...

We Got Amplified

Hired first as your band's assistant
Adonis with bonus warmest manner
Smile left me gooey, I couldn't resist it
Fluent guitar fingers sparked my enamour

Shame and Guilt Sabotaged Mine Healthy Growth

Internalized emotions wrought
quotidian psychological oppression
retrospective reflection courtesy
20/20 hindsight reveals absolute zero
positive development of body, mind, and spirit
extreme agitation compromised

maturation, education, and socialization
every year since being
born free and clear of obvious defects
minus alien aberration, Russian collusion...,

Ode To Yolanda

Yolanda? 
You are a stranger, 
weaker than our strength, 
we are too proud for our scientific breakthroughs, 
you are softer than a cotton ball, 
more delicate than a tamed sheep, 
as passive as the most...

The Lesson a Dog Taught Me

On a stone wall, by the solitary pavement,
Annoyed and angry, with daggers drawn at everyone,
I saw my neighbor sitting dejected and depressed.
Though known him for years, of late he has changed much.

His eyes had grown...

Kokoda 1942 See-Saw Battle

Kokoda 1942 See-saw battle

Red blood was a running, emerald green saw it pour,
In the mountains of Kokoda, death on the see-saw,
400 fifteen to eighteen year old boys knew the score,
Just ole .303 rifles to stop...

One Against Many

The Ancient Mariner of the parliament square
Like the mariner he was, a scrawny, skin unfair
A loner with a glittering eyes, possibly a bit touched
A Clint Eastwood impersonator look, he seemed to bear

But a powerful speaker...

Of jaded muses and digital distractions - POTW

The allure of mused poems,
No longer visits this nonchalant psyche.
It trickles now, once a roaring torrent
Now a lazy stream

Am like a desultory jaded heaven
Where starry jewels once decked the night,
But are now drossy shadowy blackholes,
And...

Got To Change the Crappy Ways

To all kinds of crappy individuals,
who think they are high and mighty.
I find them people with no principles
for they are really mean and slimy.

Hypocrisy and Forgiveness

This life so unbalanced

It makes you laugh

Hysterical feelings

Beyond the pail, beyond the fail

Where people you know

Who committed their fair share of sins

But any you make they're never forgiving

And how poor downtrodden people

Who may have made...

Farewell Brother

#FAREWELL, BROTHER
by
Hannah Rain

Lowering him down upon his curved back,
On silky blue sheets, all pleated and tacked,
A pillow they stuffed beneath his cold head,
And combed his gray hair, that once was bright red.

Then buttoning his tweed,...

Anne Frank's School Days

Anne Frank, a little girl
smart, beautiful and witty
on her thirteenth birthday
got, as gift, a small notebook
she promptly named Kitty.

Kitty soon became a friend
dear and close;
with it Anne shared
the secrets of her heart
her joys and woes.

Since Erst

3/23/17


Skilled like James T. Kirk
Fred Durst
And William Randolph Hearst

Putting in work
And occasionally going berserk
In and out of dirt

For all that it's worth
Respect the universe
And Earth
Regardless of if times keep getting worse

Is there such a thing...

How could you even hold me tight?

My tender body still didn't grow.

Childish Fears

As a child I was never afraid of the dark.
My big brother was and he would wait

Quirks

Some people frankly write about their quirks.
If I had any, I would tell you so.
Though no outlandish trait within me lurks,
some folks think I’m a nut. What do they know?

Why do they criticize when I...

Imaginary Departures


Rain drizzling on the window pane
Sullen moments, filled with melancholy
Wishes glued to hopes of sunshine
Rays washing away the storm clouds, 
The gray day – the tempestuous darkness

Nothing in life ever felt quite as dismal

With Feigned Apologies

I wrote what I thought was a 'poem' some years ago,
but it lacked rhythm, rhyme, and had no smooth flow.
Its imagery was blurry, and it filled my heart with grief
to read the overdose of alliteration,...
