Long Nihilist Poems

Let me speak clearly with you
dear religious and atheist Trumpians,

A fool in executive office
is a leader
only in foolish directions.

A rich thief

for threats to humanity 
from unchecked...

and global good...

analogously to solve mystery pinpointing
within suspense unveiling whodunnit.

Whereat your true

So, yes, I'm a Taoist
A lotta' people ask me about what that means,
to be a Taoist.

And, I usually ask
What do you mean,
what does it mean?

or even everything?
You must...

...His eyes narrowed, and he got to his feet,
said, “When did you fall to nihilist urge?
When did you decide that good in itself

The flowers had started blooming

The flower doesn't bloom for itself
It wants to mingle in another breath

When autumn French-kissed winter with tongues of leaf and ice;
The lamp-posts dripped drab amber with a dark and dreary shine,
A devil's brew of garnished sleet, elemental egg-fried rice.
