Then we finally reached where had to leap
From the second turn to third, and...

Where Gladiators Fought
Part I
Where gladiators fought for life,
we meet to fight for love
The constellations in the Roman night sky,
celestial spectators, bathe the Colosseum
in the white blood of light
The night is throbbing with the heat of our battle,

Grit and Guts On the Gridiron - 1
Mud and leather
dirt and nerve
bloodied laughter
collision to serve,
distance, drive and demolition
battle axe ambition in the wild air
muscle and mind joined in steeled instinct,
a stitched pigskin ball, the grail of the Fall
to fumble it means...

Pine sap pipe
In the deep spiked pine forests
On a walk you forgot you took
Snow up your knees
Twenty feet away
An enormous old house
Not abandoned, smoke from the chimney
Large windows, dark wood walls
A forest castle here for you
To explore...

'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there

It was Christmas Eve, not a soul made a sound,
And not so much as a mouse could be found,
The children had hung their stockings on the hearth,
As a quiet, peacefulness gently fell upon the Earth,

The Magazine Bus -- New Orleans August 1963
I stood and cried in The Magazine Bus,
Deep in New Orleans, in the city rush,
as it plowed and choked along
like a curved-back dinosaur
wheezing through the swampy ways,
rattling electric wires in a maze
of strangling...

To Live, Flightless Birds
A single branch, clawed and pecked, fickle and straining,
Lonely Nestling and father, paw and peck at their home
Lonely branch, spasms in the wind
Nestling and father paw and peck, yearn and whimper
These Flightless Birds, on a...

Ode To Mischief Lotus
My cat is a rescue me,
The abandonment of loneliness
He had his Forever Home promise
My love and affection were his.
See, he turns out to be,
Complete contentment we shared
Mutual grounds in battles, here
We did not care...

Ode
One Speaks Aloud
Soul stripped.
Flesh ripped.
Hope lost.
Time moves on not heeding the cost.
Hurt buried aside in the ditch.
Anger flares like a flip of the switch.
Fist tenses,
Wrenching blood from within.
Fingers pawing at the line of life,
White with streaks...

Faint stillness of the night falls swiftly down
and masked raccoons now pillage darkest night.
Fluffed owls with sparkling eyes are flying free

Susie and Lester
If you have a puzzle to put together,
best to own a cat to paw and ponder
the jigsaw path, fur flying,
schnozes sneezing, eyes squinting,
fingers tweezing.
Separation anxiety, as you figure out
which pile, to adopt, for each piece,
wizened...

October 31
The night of frights.
I was a vampire.
She was a witch.
He was the Grim Reaper.
Second neighborhood
Sore stomachs
Sore feet
Sore mouths from smiling
Bags a little heavier
Shoulders a lot lighter
Third neighborhood
She laughed too wildly
But we all did
