where also lives a monochromatically utilitarian narcissist,
sucking on attachment to fame and power
for bought and sold ZeroSum accounting Souls.
If the perfectly powerful pure patriarchal patriot
were your...

Bookish Menagerie: A Time Traveler's Library
Toddlers' Exploration:
Cardboard drum and a thunderous beast
With playful roars in tiny fists and feasts.
Fleeting wings glide to dreams just out of reach
Soaring through tales of barnyard Waddles and Squeaks.
Moo! Quack! Giggles tumble and bump.
Flaps...

Coincides with first day of fall
and Autumnal equinox for said year,
where colorful splash kindled like tinder.

The Skeletons and Songs of Samsara - 2

you wonder what haunts the sun
and why pain enjoys your childhood eyes,
when you see warm blood run
then you know that death can color
and like you, death loves a dramatic...

Now and Then and Now Again
1
Though still within our infancy,
we strive to thrive, but woefully
we flash and flaunt our 'primacy',
display our trophies pridefully.

Philosophical Rhymthmic Duality
Imminent calamity collides with structured debate
Virulent profanity confides with punctured ingrates
An insolent generation of insanity resides with a debunked hate
The innocent audacity presides over the opinions that rank and rate

Fabrics Finding Fabrications
A prawn masquerading as a peanut can be quite disturbing. So many times a peel is a garment used to shroud. A tentacle hidden. Here and there. Then to reappear with an often violent burst...

Ten Years, Somewhere In Their Lost Neighbourhood
“Ten Years, Somewhere in their Lost Neighbourhood”
Of course,
he said, like a god,
there is no course,
one must simply go with the flow
the penumbra stands waivering its existence,
a kind of deactivation, fuzzy borderline hanging,
backing the art...

Portrait of a Hanging
With the opening of my fortress cell,
solemn-faced men come locust invading in
Their mouths smile not, and eyes neither grin
as ceremonial words pursed lips expel
A deer thought escapes ... my life nears its end!
And I feel...
