Long Out of the jaws of death Poems

An eggplant need not taste nor look like egg,
Nor in a hamburger ham need be there,
Where's pine, apple in pineapple, I beg?
Nor yet french-fries in France invented were.
They native are— American pure blood,
Wherein was born...

The sweet release of empty flesh,
The curling locks of lady death and her syndicate.
Mercy disguised as agony;
Agony cloaked as mercy.
Eyes not glaring with murderous intent but with immense desolation.
The mistress: arousing with the hammer wrapped...

Love’s Crusade Won


The blade met the ice in a vast explosion
Burying itself deep up to the hilt inside
Her frozen dungeon began to split and shatter
At last crumbling apart releasing my Bride

She fell limp and cold...

On that day we stood there, at the front 
We said our goodbyes
Eight years down the line 
Our lives stuck in that trance

I look at my life and laugh
I have strangers for parents
I don't remember...

We are the unsung heroes of the predawn light.
No we may never have fought in a great war,
or saved a soul from the snapping jaws of death. 
People wave to us, but few know who...

Snow whispered unto me
"Nothing remains static"
Yet I remained completely still
While I shoveled the snow away

Second month frozen gave way to warmth
From passion, from anger
From a wealth of confusing events
And spending it all in a volcano

Burnt...

ENCOUNTER WITH A TREE

I traveled down the road of life just doing what I pleased;
I didn't care what others thought about my life of ease.
And though I was taught right from wrong, for me it...

It crept upon me,
From the age of eight,
Who knew the depths of hell,
That that first taste would lead?
The singing and jokes,
The dancing and shouts,
It all seemed grand to me.

It ate deep inside,
My nervous system,
Trapped by...

I Committed Suicide
I stretched out weary hands. 
Melisa, who considered me 
like a big brother, quickly ran away from me. 
My heart writhed unto me; 
I longed for a swig of water. 
Noise danced, rumbled...

What could live beneath radiation's
Mushroom storm cloud?
The heavens are burnt asunder,
Horizons red dawn glows,
 With an eerie mist.
Lightening and thunder strikes,
Against fallout’s atmospheric residue,
Ashes debris falls as embers fire.
Emerging from the depths below,
A creature surfaces,...

Aiming the blade into shoulder blade or beating heart

Half a home, half a home,
Half a home conjured.
Into the jaws of skip
…….goes all we plundered.
Clear out the crap we said
Make like we now are dead
Into the jaws of death
…….our waste was thundered.

Get rid of...

Thankful for God’s grace 
which help’s me to survive  

At times it seem’s the darkness

Yes, little frog 
You were floating downstream 
On the surface of a giant leaf
Carried along by the swift current 
Navigating your way around 
The thick forrest of weeds 
And through the dense undergrowth 
That runs...

I'm falling.
 Falling.
Falling out of a dream into the cool jeweled ocean.
 An under world of cities of gray and blue.
 A faded memory.
 A falling person.
 Do I know you?  Why are you...

I used to be a poet…
A god among man became I
Until one day I met a maiden fair. 
She was as lovely as a dream of heaven; 
Hell on earth to punish my profanity.

Below the banyan tree it lay
Ruffled feathers grey and white, 
Claws clenched in a hideous way
Making a piteous sight.

Upon the boughs its mates cawed loud
Shrieks echoing in the green, 
The jaws of death could not...

She took you for a ride on the wild side
Taking you through bushels and thorns
You endured the pain of the splinter and shrubs
Swerving through highways and by ways
U-turning to where disaster resides

She played foul
Destroyed all...

Substituting for you?
Is that what I'm supposed to do?
   I woke to find myself alone
       inside this shell,
     this rancid home.
