Long in the tooth male doth recount, reflect, reimagine...
his woebegone damn dental daze today May 5th, 2021 

No particular rhyme nor reason
garden variety indentured flunky (me)
revisits his salmagundi salad days, 
when oral blight smote

Precedent setting the stage for kerning and tracking piqued my interest

Just before logging off for the day,
and ready to boogie out of the joint
an email landed squarely in my inbox
cordially inviting me 
into the management...

Batman, She-Ra, Ronald Reagan
Lower student loans, and landline phones
The Dark Crystal and around 5.2 billion people

I hit the master switch
And all the lights and racks come on at once
The mood lights overhead, the rack equipment, flashing, glowing
Keyboards, amps, mixer, recorder, effects, EQ, sound mods, sequencers
Screens, laptop, pedals, playback system, and...

You never even saw him
as you lay soaking up the sun
tiptoeing with that bucket.
Six years old and out for fun.

The look of shock in your eyes
as the water broke your sleep
I laughed so much; sides...

Long Island, Oh How You Make Me Suffer,

I need to get out of this town, to get out and about

 To leave this drought of a town that is filled with so much...

I was having a dialog
with my inner shock collar
a present from my fairy godmother
who had trimmed the hedge
into leafy mammals with teeth
ready to protect the perimeter
and as sure as incisors segue to molars
they tore loose...

From the middle of a dream,
 I woke to find
A light bulb burning in my mind
The answers were there that I’d been searching for
And I knew that tomorrow would be just fine
Tomorrow would be just...

This world is ours
If we put our heads together thats cleverer
The Media pins the masses down like wrestlers
Biased to the westerner
Showing of the worst of Africa
Reporting Ebola to Malaria
But missing out the beauty
with intentional duty

froze natural pond, where over head Canadian geese did blare

when from behind a bush (color of smashed pumpkin) did peek a deer

My lover’s backside makes me weep;
I drew it from memory on the first try 
Then traced it over and over again for hours;

His backside is anguished joyous home and 
Disturbing wonder caught, entangled 
In a...

This air blows around me 
Reminds me of the good old days
High school days which are past
Gone never to return
Old faces come and go
My head is full of them
Can remember the locked ins and outs

The sea waves gently sweep over my feet,
At one end the water and the sky meet,
Into the sea the sun goes for his daily dip,
And from behind the clouds the glowing moon peeps.

Slowly as increases...

The addict rests in the darkness 
Comfortable in his skin
Knowing
Does not doubt his actions
Moves forward swiftly
Alone
Bottle and stash by his side
Chaos as his neighbour
Top down 
Cruising

Upon awakening its us
Who needs to pick 
ourselves up
wonder
where we...

in the arena of battle,
t.v. on snipe

drawing his long sword from its sheath,
every inch cacophonously sharpened

sinister with geared teeth

nonsense forms from ancient bowels,
utterance of a lion woken from sleep

roaring out profanity and analytical resound,
playback of...

God’s Tattoo

Did I jump too soon??
Celebrate too early??
Will I like others before? become 
the cliche of sports re-runs??
Will they think I am enough??
Go behind my back, Cut me out??
Did I make the right move??
Involve enough...

I remember it
Like it was yesterday
When we first met
The introduction
The chills
The laughter
What does it matter
Love me or not
The last one didn't treat me right
So it is your turn now
Your opportunity
I'll give it a chance
It did...

Each of us live our own lives.
We don't recognize what we 
take for granted.
Each time one of us dies.
We're reminded of the times we 
wished we hadn't.

I can see the cold black stare 
on your...

Memories mottle my butterfly’s wings
Shimmering and cute they are from my past
And a new song the bard in me now sings
On two sweet ones from  the  database vast.

The smell of the freshly cleaned ( stage floor)
The crowd bursting out to cheer in a roar
The beads of water trickling down my forehead
Each step towards the stage as I head
The spotlight was on me;...
