"How Huxley Sees the World"



He composes his world -
dream extractions
simulated from 
the surreal reality of man
colour cognitive from the dead moments
we phantomise to life in sleep
electric light colour bursts forth 
from a perspective unique
a hare...

I feel for gentle hearts in this loud world, 
Ever suspect, dismissed and derided, 
For long has been the shy a songless bird,
That Darwin dismissed as ‘odd state of head’, 
Jane Austin gave shyness a...

Animal kingdom was invited to join the forest meadow
Band orchestrated by the deniable dictator, diabolical gorilla king
Causing loads of premature bragging from delighted grand-animals.
Deliriously enthusiastic orangutans began to show off their voice prowess.
Excited flocks, herds,...

I am eager and willing.
I wonder why things happen the way that they do.
I hear the busy streets, as cars driven by business men and women as they rush 
home from work.
I see this Earth...

I stood quiet, regal...in timeless innocence,
arms touching the sky, bent in the wind.
Sun caressed my limbs...my life was dense
and sheltered by Nature...never to end.
 
I nestled birds close to my breast,
shaded the earth...with gentle care.
Rain...

THE MORAN

Dreadlocks running down his shoulders
So red to pass for a bloodbath
But traditional beauty veins deep
My brother the great Moran

His eyes black with strange look
Not fear but ready to strike
His white teeth gives bright smile

Captain Moran never gave up hope.
We were being tossed like washrags.
Many pirates of our crew were brutally ill.
The waters of the Caribbean were dangerously dark.
Some of the rest of us wanted him to turn back...

I wish I were a child again - I would
tell my mother how important things are,
Things like hot chocolate on a cold night,
mud pies in the sun, learning how to skate,
I wish I could wish...

The need to touch you resounds

I have a companion
in my house
who doesn't talk,
eat, drink or move

No, don't think it's
an apparition
or a television....

....don't think it's
my rusty-aged bicycle
that's about to head
to the recycle
plant.....

Yes, it's my Maasai
Moran sculpture,
beautiful in nature!

Though I eat, drink,
laugh,...

I am gazing - out the window,
And I see an Ivy, climbing to the sky,
I see Humanity walking by,
My window,
I don't see love.

I see seeds upon the ground - dead.
Seeds of justice.
I see a child...

(This is a fictional poem)

Last week I felt great fear.
I met Erin Moran and Stephanie Weir.
Erin starred in Happy Days and Stephanie starred in Mad TV.
They joined forces and beat the hell out of me.
They...

Gussie Moran, a tennis star,
Created quite a stir
When she wore lace-trimmed underwear,
Created just for her.

In 1949 this was,
On Wimbledon’s staid courts;
The British folk were scandalized,
According to reports.

Designed by Teddy Tingling,
A tennis pro and Brit,
The all-white...

I must be mad...I wonder
if ants get tired as the weight of a 
crumb bears down upon them...
for survival.

I wonder if dogs think...I wonder
if houses weary of their occupants.

I must be mad...I wonder
if houses weary...

Lurking in my darkened mind, hatred strains
for freedom...incarcerated by sanity...ever
seething, bleeding, clawing at chains,
locked by my hand.  It will sever
my soul if the key
escapes from me.

Nestled in my hidden eye, my heart cries
with such...

Erin Moran has died at the age of fifty-six.
She was special and a credit to all chicks.
She was adorable when she starred as Joanie Cunningham.
When a person dies that young, it's always hard to understand.

The trees bend to the wind,
and in the forest they dance.
Each one singing,
and each one swinging.
Happily they sing
and swing with all the rest.
All in Harmony and all in beat.

But when one goes down
they don't stray...

On calfskin created, a beauty in youth!
A master’s creation, none can dispute!
Her auburn tresses and complexion fair!
Who created her image, who can declare?
Italian princess or cashier from Bolton? 
Either way for me, the image is...

Moonlit Shipwreck At Sea, 1901 Thomas Moran (1837-1926)


A misty memory
Touch a bleeding heart
Through a moonlit beam

Peering from storm clouds
A light of hope
Revealing a story
To late to redeem

Upon the sea
Crystalline drops
Dancing free
Touch facets
In the mind
Of painted...
