Tozzath
Pellucid pachyderms wade across
the purpling River Manjees

the seat of his maroon pantaloons soaked with mud,
his nostrils flaring with the fragrance of ombadalias,
whose lacey petals flutter
like the wings of long-dead...

Still Life With Flowers
It is an unseasonable March day.
My kitchen blinds are drawn against morning sun,
their slender slats like new skin protecting the body's vital organs;
eyelids before this rose-covered tablecloth as though the blooms
are the pale larvae of...

The Wood Carver
I am a wood carver by instinct and intuition;
I am not a wood carver by trade or profession.
I carve the likenesses of things into something whole,
Into the shapeless wood, I carve the essence of its...

Concussion Therapy
the free state is actually not free
casting my line into the many manipulations
worked by dust devils and hierophants
gambling their grunt wages on my young ass
like cowboys on a cattle free vacation
unwelcome by all rational standards

Sacred Earth Undone
Earth feels undone.
Not only incomplete,
but now unraveling,
Undead
but not resurrecting,
not fully alive,
not healthy enough
to listen for sacred survive
whispers, ReWind
ReGenerate
ReConnect
What Gaia has joined
ego-centers within ecosystems
must not secularize
disconnect natural analogical likenesses
inviting spiritual
metaphoric
profound illuminations
Of

complex empowerment,

Within These Pages
With every page turned
I discover traces of myself
Behind the tattered covers
Of old family diaries
In the words of Homer
Within the songs of America
Amongst the GI’s, Hoplites, and Senators,
This is the masculine
I despise this cloak of anonymity
In...

Crossroads to where life began
Fear of dark cold round me again
In the twilight before the morn
Scattered grass iced, forlorn
Silence in the air ash orangy dawn
Fire burnt out like clouds in storm
Life in vain for a...

Likenesses
This body that I am now forced to own
once was a glove for desiring hands, and
a hand for the warm fitting-rooms of strangers.
I am an owner of derelict houses.
their roofs and walls unrecognizable
In the harsh...

A Rift Was Torn
A rift was torn throughout what was once a perfect sky, the souls of many waiting to be born... beings of light.
A different being of the Lord's could not stop his internal fool's chatter inside...

Disorderly Conduct
Disorderly conduct
Conducted under construction
Destruction of emotions, feelings and likenesses.
Simply stated yet so full of complications
Complicated likeness and complying not.
Disorderly disorganized mishap
Misshapen. Shape it. Make it beautiful
Not so popular , not a real crowd pleaser.
Watching...

Cruel and Friendly Cloud Dilemma
Forms most enormous seen from our earth,
Dwarf the tallest, the grandest of mountains’ girth.
Magnificent spectacles rounded up in the sky:
Sculptured foam, floating frothy, towering high.
Black ominous clouds of malevolent breadth,
Funnels of doom, destruction, and death,
Whirling...

without a cure, it lingers on and causes tragedy,
It waltzes into the lives of the young and old,
taking up residence boldly,
Its victims fight the good fight

Sharp Ivory Brushes
Sharp ivory brushes my torso
Pain, but pleasure’s persistent
A flash of boredom that coinsides
With
Saliva and other
Suspitions.
Answers lay just beyond
Splashes of color and
Juxtaposed likenesses
My squealing snout hides me
And my pink flesh exposes
But covered with fiery...
