Claws wrapping onto the arches beyond
Gnarled feet pressed on the threshold
Lower limbs jingling with sparky anklets
Ready to catapult and kick with spitting mouth
To shove its...

Evolution
Inhumanities buzzard picks at the scraps
squabbling over trash
vultures of the pavement
denying everything has life

A confetti of money
the wedding funeral of it’s own immoral concept
squawking the incantations

for these divisions of hate

Making of a Storyteller
Story time.
Start at the beginning, please,
And tuck me in well.
Put out the lights,
Put on the bedside lamp.
Now, if you please,
Start.

Brighter
Daylight goes, and darkness glows. 
A weary head, nodding asleep. 
An empty bed, the stars weep.

Keep you alive, persistent nail biting.

Tied To a Chair For An Indeterminate Time
Staying in this seat is the torture of time spinning down:
Psychological nail-biting.

Curbing a driving impulse to jump up on my seat and yell
