Of a Savior with ardent heart burning
Sunlight invades with the turning of hinges
Untethering the hospitality of Tony, the lone waiter
His Brazilian arms are swinging doors, open to embrace

The Wrinkled skin of the Rhinoceros
Steel hard, no man can penetrate
The young buck on the tourist bus
Thought if he killed one, his lovers heart he could take.

(07/09/11)

He had taken a firm stand
To prove that he was a macho man.
He built his body and tightened his abs
To make them look like the bricks on a wall
But with time those abs would fall.

I got an ugly duckling pen
that’s always
trying to write pretty sentences
My plain consonant smiles
don’t have a poetic glow beautiful
I have a missing vowel or two,
enamel thoughts in need 
of a good fairy to come through
Pretty...

I guess for me it's not part of the plan
More friends are ladies, than other guys
Being with women I don't need a disguise

and tell me, what do you see?
Is it a woman shackled to pain
crying in despair
at the weight of her chains?

Poetic License

Pure Frustration
If I could not
Kiss you with my sonnets
Explain you symbolically
Or say  “I love you”
In metaphorical ambiguities

And in a split...

That waned little by little with every advancing hour,
Those days his upheld gait scared both man and beast,
Very stout and with less manly things contented least.

A macho man, if you will,
Tho still I fell for Little Blue Eyes,
When on the highway I was drawn
Into a Little Town church,
To give thanks for spared hurts
And wrecks when a truck...
