Long Paralleling Poems

Listen hear me out
Had to go in His presence of the throne
Not alone 
Surrounded by majestically
Spiritual trombones
Blowing announcing here she comes
Aisle ready thy Kingdom come
Jubilee ceremonial fun
Keep pushing understanding to some
Seasons change like doubled down...

Two way street 
a common road
so much esteemed on the way one go's
Those who build a world with hands
and the bodies beaten to build those plans
Others figure with minds of brilliance 
while charmers amass financial...

*** Sketching the Ballerina ***

It is well, quite well after midnight. 
My pup lies fagged on the blanket
    as close to me as possible.
The young ballerina sits slightly slumped
On a bench across...

The Student

As I strolled upon the green
and take in the breathtaking view of the front lawn
the onrush of winter geese take on the horizon, 
				waking me to my senses.

The silent roar of two lions guard...

and the peaking dawn
waxes as the horizon slowly
raises its eyelid releasing
a sleepy orange glow.
 
Slowly, the giant

to brightly shine morning

I've never feared,
I was born to fly.

Born to see cloud shadows
on the ground and the sugar sprinkles
of snow along a ridge,
leading to
the frosting clad Shasta.

Born to see the meandering
snow melt rivers descending
into checkerboard...

Cotton Commercials
always reminded me of
my grandmother's house
irony cotton paralleling
Ridgfield Park, New Jersey bitterness.
Boiling in decrepit neighborhoods, 
once swarming with Irish and Italian Catholics.
Now a haven of cracked sidewalks
ten miles outside of Manhattan.

Maybe it was the...

Lunar Revelation

Like the moon
seeking fulfillment,
my thoughts hung dangling
in cosmic crescent and yin-yang
spaces of contemplation
until tell-tale gibbous moments
of awareness prefaced 
the paralleling of the full moon

Haven where solicitous parents hover
		over sick little ones and dispense advice to
		mature ones; an emotional stronghold, not merely an
		edifice one enters for physical shelter.

		Sanctuary whose personality changes
		with time, paralleling inhabitants' metamorphoses,
		embellished with evidences of the...

He walks alone in silence as the ghost in his mind wants to come alive

Trees and wildflowers at his side, 
paralleling nature’s  balance
and symmetrical harmony, 
as the yellow faces and hollow bodies beam

In his...

Time is going by
Hell is breaking loose
Everybody is running, running, jumping, paralleling by

Bright eyes surround you, they have never, always, sometimes, been waiting
If the stars blink out, the sun burns out, the moon falls down
