Preparing Love's Ways and Means

So, love is good for you?
Not too traumatic?

In a foreplay
Win-Win kind of way,
yes.

Now what?

Maybe some music and stretching?

How about another dance?

Sacred MotherEarth,
you wear me out.

I thought that was your idea.

Well, yes,
now that you are so...

Pointed Art

Pointed Art
Michael R. Burch

The point of art is that
there is no point.
A grinning, quick-dissolving cat
from Cheshire
must have told you that.

The point of art is this—
the hiss
of Cupid’s bright bolt, should it miss,

compared to Truth’s...

Bounty of September Grace

Heartfelt light… falls gentle on my dew drenched silence,
When moon is fading beneath the silent blessings,
Raining through the moments, healing with soft expressions
Moments alive with the flames of joy kindled to birth,
Praying into the depths...

Beauty In the Night

Oh now I sit in my chamber,
surrounded by the four white walls,
and a painting of Athena,
and it is midnight, a silvery moon not in sight.

Stomping On Radicals

One does not stamp out radicalism
any more than one outspends capitalism
or fights successfully against militarism
or overpowers totalitarianism.

We might fade out radicalism,
co-invest capital in cooperative objectives for health,

Sweet Dreams

Lady love, have you now a moment, rare?
I'll turn the heat you spawn to steam.
If you have a minute or two to spare,
I'll relate to you, my dream.

with muscles ripped & a razor sharp intellect,
a sense of humor that could make the room roar &

Galvanized With Steely Mettle

Countless instances submitting poems
finds me racking
quite a hefty collection of rejections,
the responses lacking
disappointing voluminous vicious
venomous vitriolic backing
quite the contrary,
the prefabricated responses

unsuccessful at hijacking
my "FAKE" toothy gumption
(since I wear dentures) lip smacking
bite size packing
not exceptionally appetizing,
but...

The Dragon Jar

What better place for fearsome beasts of fire
than airless thickets choked in green excesses
where weary soldiers stumble and aspire

Vast plantation harvests have all ended

Intermingled Poems of Love

A tender smile, a fleeting glance,

A beating heart, a breathless breath,
A deepened sense of something whole.

A need to please and give of self,

I am, that which I am
No matter circumstances

The Moon

On the 9th day of October, I paused to think
Like a flashback in a play,
Browsing through all my days
Remembering how and when you came into it

Alas, I smiled unconsciously
But yes, indeed happily
Remembering that tomorrow is...

At the Carnival

The billboard proclaimed the welcome news
Rides, games, and fun for all!

Children gleefully running past
Clutching tickets and prizes in tiny hands
Or munching on corndogs and cotton candy
From the eager vendors along the midway

Tenders hawk their games...

Yours...Is the Most Beautiful Smile

Yours..is the most beautiful smile,
the source of all my inspirations;

And from it joy is emanated;
with the speed of a shooting star,
to earth it falls, for me to catch it...
