The Sandless Sand Castle
The Sandless Sand Castle
Let me tell you about my eldest brother.
I am: the "Scram!", the "Beat it!", the "What you looking at?!", and the "Turn around and watch the movie!", younger brother. As you can...

Recollections From the Golden Cree I
I know of a river of more than average
Sorts...
Meandering, when not dallying to maunder,
Between many differing contours
And unruly contorts;
Where a privileged youth once
Happily sought -
Pursuing about his passions
In the traditional methods
By which...

Obliging Earth's Compassion
Love
ain't hate
Divine discourse
denies degenerative debate,
Church
ain't State
Conserving compassions
content obligations
contentiously Liberating.
I love thinking
about win/win compassion
disturbed by hated win/lose
feeling obligation.
We/Me wants to conserve
resilient passion/pleasure
peak experiences
yet
Me/We needs to liberate
a more resonant Me
safe from They's
traumatic mind oppression,
body suppression,
negative...

Theater of Utter Charm Part 5
she left me defenseless again
for reasons that cannot be spoken
but that can be further diagrammed
worthy of forensic dissection
deep into the cauliflower folds
branching like rivers of lightning
all at once one at a time
lighting up the display...

Without Knowing Your Gender
Without knowing your gender...,
(nevertheless ex post facto still flattered
genuine heartfelt kinship mattered,
hence the reasonable rhyme
across the webbed wide world
I subsequently scattered).
Linkedin to the previous poem,
(similarly written scant few years ago.
I also codified, glorified,...

Without Knowing Your Gender
Without Knowing Your Gender...,
(nonetheless ex post facto still flattered)
Bhutan names defy affiliating,
determining, identifying... gender,
and what a faux pas this dada admits,
when a blessed high school
student did league gully tender
benighted, gifted, ordained yours truly
with sobriquet "Guru"

Borrowing Burroughs
Fresh and new
Adventures to find
Skipping to the beat
Of a patterned mind
Follow the line
Never step on the crack
The crevices will reveal
Wanton lack
Free, everything is free
For anyone to take
Maybe adults have to pay
For Mercy's sake
Wait! I didn't...

The Angler Ship
Tracing down the aeropath and to the landing zone,
Comes a stately silvery craft from distant lands unknown.
The attendants stand at the ready to lend a helping hand,
All poised and buttons polished in an air of...

Our Oak
OUR OAK
I shall always think of it as our oak;
Yours and mine.
Majestic in that green haven from urban cacophony,
It sheltered us in those precious moments:
Discreetly deaf to our small talk,
Obligingly blind to the fool I...

Rubik Cube
Yours is a horrendous bother
I decode one side, you obfuscate another!
I twist and turn, twist and turn again
fingers engrossed around your parts, another twist
extirpates the other side! My enthusiasm refuses to wane.
I warp your shifting...

Happy Place
Trauma has wrapped me in its slimy tentacles
Tightening, till my depression becomes clinical
Man with yellow pad listens obligingly
Then into my happy place he is guiding me
I imagine my beautiful tropical island home
All is serene...

Endless Autumn, Obligingly
The morning sun just rising, glaring;
a damp, colder, workaday street ...
fallen leaves scattered,
Halloween mere days away:
Suddenly: Startled by the workman:
A stray, jet-black cat
frightenedly slinking into utter darkness
under a nearby porch.
In the gloom, the cat...

Natural Pearl
agony of expectations never to be met,
duties to obligingly tend, without end
love's vessel silently sailing, ever empty
nothing to be shared but the pangs of regret,
missing a lover, a confidante, a friend
needing a match to spark...

Tricked of Treats
halloween in

western
pennsylvania
before there
was non
existent climate

before now
my eyes
yes suddenly
predictably on
my grandson stopped
about how hot
it was under
his costume so
i continued to
pull off his
face mask so
he could
relax
catch his breath
before his next
trick but they
always obligingly

Scented Lies
The steady cadence of your soul does quell
a passioned spirit, aching to unfold.
Your rhythmic heart emits a luring spell,
forbidding independence to take hold.
Obligingly I dance your metered waltz,
though yearning, from within, new melodies.
As stifled feet...

Evening Orange
Oranges are always lovely
Nestling unknowable dreams
But they never come to you obligingly
You need to have a heart genuine
The evening clouds in the sky
Have raised colours of hushed height
I perceive some salted stimuli

Predilection Edict

For naught these thoughts

Darkly Smoldering Allies
Darkness and I have become allies,
affinity by association's shadowed prayer
spoken of the same kindred language,
consanguinity in our devout appeal
of blackening night's smoky exposure,
like a coke whore I...
