Kaleidoscope

"Kaleidoscope" 

They say another
wrote the story, not I.
that I, mere I,
having little experience, shy 
and far removed from 
such an alien world,
would not possess the knowledge
of such terrible and ruthless, lusty 
characters of strong will;...

Ground Level Entry

"Ground Level Entry"

“She fits the bill”,
they say it 
insouciantly

visions of being 
carried in the beak 
of a bilious pelican 

where it builds
its rudimentary nest, 
it uses sticks and debris

no stones, yet,
from irreverence
thrown at it

no higher...

Path of Contemplation a Song

I walked a long path today. Off in the woods nearby.

My dogs walked with me, and took side trails on the
sly.
 
A little trail becomes a deer trail, through the
eucalyptus and pine

The oxalis grows wild...

Born to Rage

I woke with blood in my mouth
and no memory
of the scab that sealed the rasure.

I’m cat-spitting
dog-growling
peregrine-divebombing
rooster-flogging
badger-flipping
hornet-stinging
wolverine-ripping mad.

I fired the sun for showing up late
cursed the fridge light until
yogurt soured in terror.

God called
I let it ring...

Nadir

Summer's salty doom knocked
ruggedly as I lay on the
sheets of tormented
threats and turmoil.
Jerks at the slightest beep. 
Gasps at a faint knock. 
Soaked in muddy debts
of frauds. A muscle pull of shame, 
death's soulful companion....

The Queen of Hearts

The beloved Queen of Hearts was a merry queen, who'd ever loved to bake;
Like confetti midnight stars, sparkling; or the yellow, noon sun, wide awake.

She baked myriad varieties of cookies, and delicious pies of different...

The Sandpipers Call

The Sandpipers Call

 Sandpipers Call amongst the garbage
 along the shore,
 Tumbleweeds dance from dusk till dawn 
 Tumbleweeds roll as time goes by,
 And time should stand still for love?
 But:
 Only Tumbleweeds roll...

My Favorite Wild Animal

My favorite wild animal is 
as strong as Hulk Hogan
and eats fresh quail.


She is as strong as 
Chuck Norris, and Rocky,
and they fly faster than mail.


My favorite animal makes a 
hungry cheetah look unnaturally slow.


He...

Motion Practice

Seven Morning Stars

In the western Carpathian piedmont
Which my grandfathers left long before,
The peregrine falcon flees likewise
From a tableau of fresco tradition,
Superstition, and tempera myth.

The me of then bested the alpine pass
Where Hannibal lost his eye.

Charmouth Cliffs

Green carpet fields, laid seamed and edged 
with berry hedge 
and windswept tufted trees hemline the valley stream that cuts through to the sea. 

Coarse bracken covers the higher cliff, 
with feather ferns in darker...

Wanderlust

Remind me of the sea that kisses the coast of Algiers
Where the tides are soft and the winds all but fierce
In that country past the strait of Gibraltar
Where the trip to Casablanca didn’t halt her

Yours Truly, Peregrine Falcon

I'm a bird of prey creme de la creme.
On air, I'm like a heat-seeking missile,
a kamikaze airplane swooping down
on prey with lethal precision. 
My large eyes, as sharp as an Eagle's.

Tell the Eagle I said...

Lord of Isolation

Nights in white satin play as I’m looking at Vermont fall
The mesmerizing beauty touches my evolving soul
The trees like poplar, willow, birch and linden stand tall
Their boughs of leaves seem cascading like mountain waterfall

The Huntsman and His Peregrine

The huntsman's only pride and his holy livelihood 
Flew an injured peregrine to his land one evening 
Her quill feathers perfumed of mountains and coastal

It looks to the endless visage of the skies
Above it peregrine falcon flies
At night owl gives its bone chilling cries

I lived like in a bad dream so many days;
I was in the dark, not seeing any ways;
I saw no meaning of that days;
I couldn’t find myself noways!

Among that emptiness suddenly
In the eyes, their beauty...

Natures Nest

How beautiful the sounds, sights of nature

In the distance alarm call of a cuckoo,

beautiful sound of summer Tanager

Blackbirds hopping around getting in a stew,

Acrobatics of swallows, swifts, Martins,

Crows of the carrion, rooks, jackdaws, Raven

Cooing of...

Aspen, ponderosa pine, blue spruce

We climb to 11,000 feet in three days,

Peregrine and Terrapin

Time flies like a fiery peregrine
infinity takes its bronze sweetened time
seeing all with the opaque eye of the terrapin.

Time is a tambourine -it has little mercy
it'll wake you from you sweetened sleep.
Infinity is the fluted...

Thriller

I was in the garden tending gladioli
and collecting rosehips to make wine
When I glanced toward the sky
A cold shiver ran down my spine . 

Hurtling toward me 
At what seemed a thousand miles per hour
