Learning disabled, hopelessly unemployed
Troy can't write the address for his next interview.
Warehouse stock, 331 Tiffany Street, in the Bronx.
His girlfriend, Trinity, also unemployed,
with one child by Troy. She's more resourceful
but doesn't realize it. For one...

It seems a shame that you're not here
To share my evening stroll with me, 
As I walk down this gravel road
That takes off just outside of town.
Two pheasants flush from bar ditch pools
(The grassy soup...

Do you ever look forward to falling asleep...
In hopes of escaping into sweet dreams so deep? :)

If you dread nightmares, careful what TV you watch
(My advice: E.W.T.N. is topnotch!)

Could read the Bible till your eyelids...

I rather watch a kestrel to see
Her swoop and swirl
The skies invisible maze
To feed the inhabitants of her nest
Her milk of gratitude

Morning begins with a bright darkness
And the beckoning beaks for food
There is a wind...

Volition, orientation familiarization aahing
and oohing within restrictive paradigm molding
inviolable honorable gentility -
flagrantly, desirously, clearly boyz abandoning
willfully skirting, panting (heavily)

Earthlinked selfish living
psychosexual...

Over-power the masses single-handedly
One against many, against any calamity
Exhaust a man's will
To bend at his own
So what if it kills (him)
--The man has no soul--
Grew stronger by the day
Fueled by love and hate
A ruler and...

Sweet serenity soars too
Kangaroos and owls perch together
You say I’m a cloud in the sky, drifting away
Lonely as a hawk and injured as a crow
I cure the disease of the awkward, stressful breeze
Nostalgic nightfall negotiates...

One day young  Lizzie yelled out loud,
'I want some pets. I want them now.
I want lots. I don’t care how!

'I want a cat. I want a dog.
I want a fish. I want a frog.

Here’s Heaven

As we approach the Pearly Gates Heaven’s crew anxiously awaits
As our Soul soundly negotiates how to enter Heaven and debates
If we lived without sinister sin the Gates would open and we’re in
For now our...

The day they came

Towering treasures
boxes stacked sky scraper high
giddy city measures
to a tiny timid blue eye.

But there down low to be sold
level with her miniature size,
delicate delights to behold
stolen by glanceful little shys.

A safe hand...

She moves her body with a sexual tempo, slow and easy does it   
She’s on the corner every night, dressed in next to nothing; skimpily clad 
Alluring men in her seductress trap a...

The two-feet gauge antiquated railway 
climbs up the precipitous hilly gradient,
negotiates gallantly the steep gorge slope
of the Himalayan tough terrain ancient.

The miniature coaches so very elegant
of the old Darjeeling Himalayan Railway,
coil around the meandering lengthy...

The grassy Landscape pass in a blur
Like the hurrying wind from the shore-
And as i watch through misty windows
While the bus labour away through the meadows-

I hear that cry again-
I hear it like the rain:
