My Eyes, My Ears
My eyes are seeing things they shouldn't have to see

My eyes are weeping and heavy with pain, throbbing
--- must look away ---
 I will dab and daub you for sobs of life...

And Woody Herman Played
Blues in the Night.

A malignant moon
shines his metallic claws -
combs my hair and brushes me forward.
I am alone in the shadowy crooks 
of a poisoned metropolis.

A clandestine garbage chute -
where waifs and strays burn
within the...

The Voice Inside My Head
The voice inside my head,
 echo's "do you know your purpose, here?",
 "why you not dead?";
 (whisper)
 The thought won't subside 
 until you eat of Christ bread.

 "But where am I to be feed?"

Leaves On Leave
Sometimes trees’ green fingers
Stand still like reposing harbingers
Of hope and despair; they meditate
On our ignorance of them who medicate
Us when diseases burgle into our souls
Taking us unawares like April fools.

At times tree branches and leaves
Come...

Alive
And we are left here
Like maggots—dirty, parentless…devastated
Always feeding on the gruel…the cruel
Fattening our lives in the moneyless bilk
Shocking like a bee sting, yet soft as silk
We are the forgotten
I am watching the others grow rotten
But...

This World Looked Away - Written When Clinton Was President
While more than one million Rowandan lives were taken,

Each precious mortal life a victim to massive genocide.

Slashed into pieces and some left to die in horrible agony,

While U.N. turned its back and a President stood...

Habeas Corpuses
Haunted by fears of abandonment he lived a life of counter measures
always aloof, his deceptions were a well rehearsed performance;
ultimately judged as inconsiderate and unforgivable;
And labeled as an insignificant happenstance that must be made to...

Neighborhood Elegy

There is now, and there is then
white washed woodwork

hard working, hometown folks

Die or lie dormant today
cinders to sadness
pockets of politeness placed
particularly on purpose.

The Moon Will See You Now
“THE MOON WILL SEE YOU NOW”


listen to the moon, 
it’s quiet, 
it listens. 
the parentless, 
the homeless, 
the drunks, 
the whores, 
the broken, 
the one’s who hold 
onto what’s left of 
their soul. 
they all...

The Mountains
So cold and alone
in my isolated home.
In the mountains, in the wild,
like a parentless child.
No more familiar faces,
that I'll be seeing.
No more laughter it's just me here
no sign of another human being.
In the middle of...

It Seems Just Like Yesterday
It seems just like yesterday,
I was introduced into this world,
A world that fills with nothing but Love, Peace and Happiness.
It seems just like yesterday,
I was being held inside your arms,
The arms that feel so warm,...

Pain
Pain is art .
The emotions it takes apart.
Pain is the inspiration  
an anemy to happiness but filled with acclimation 

Pain is the thief ,that comes between couples too ,
So is family at the hands...

The Restless God of Wind
Awakening from slumber it thrashes around,
that which was once, now completely unbound

It shouts at earth with an unsettled mind,
it bashes and smashes destruction entwined

The might of the wind, the cold and the rain,
together they tether...

Peace Is Needed For Pete's Sake
Imagine children waking up to bombs and sirens in the night.
Parents calming their children's screams of fright.
Rockets bursting in air.
People fleeing their homes, cries of anguish in their voices.

Violence, suffering, dying, too much-
Children homeless, parentless,...

Ordinary Day
The lights bother not to flicker
Just an ordinary day
When everything is telling you to leave 
Yet only one thing ask you to stay

It’s like everyone’s just living for today 
No tomorrow, no worries
