that synagogue killed me, tragically,
the other day
The hands which held it
are Second Amendment clean —
Gunpowder washed in crimson water
of dogma purity
I was just the latest recipient
of an over-the-counter, scarlet...

Dramatic Monologue
Smells Like Government
Rancid lemon rope squeeze
around a rotten tomato neck tie,
crooked odor bow hanging out of place
Acid reflux raisin tax bleed;
dripping spoiled, milquetoast lies
out a sour-twisted, prune puckered face
Tart tongue

dirty saliva fingers in...

Richard WilburI found Richard today -
November the Third.
Isn’t that just like Richard?
I don’t know.
I can’t say.
He died a fortnight-plus ago.
I never knew him.
I never gave him time.
To know me.
To show me.
How to know me.
And by him,...

Don'T Step In It
Every ringside observer knows,
Truth don’t pull no punches
Getting down dirty in the earthy trenches,
reveal who the real
firmament workers are
When a pile of brown waste

Don’t let ‘em try to shovel
those swarm...

They’ll send you their regrets.
With attributes like wealth or fame
Or Ivy League degrees,
The Times may run your story,
But there are no guarantees.

Mental Poverty
Empty socket pocket-tears upstairs

down in their dark chest cellar
Gutter dwellers

Same ol’ decisions
