The Rant

whose era treasured learning over gold,
And humble were the thoughts and words of these,
who, trothed to truth, would now be left displeased,
by hurried tempers bent on winning wars,
neglectful...

Dionysus Markets Asphodel
Mayst tell them, though they leave a sacred land,
Where every inch with rich conception spanned,
With diligence, in Hades mayst they find
A path that to Elysian Fields doth wind.

Mchenry's Horse
Ballaraat’s known for its bounty of gold,
and the days of Eureka Stockade,
plus winning horses, on racing courses,
where flanks of the horses are flayed.
And the offer of prize is a bountiful one,
for a winner that’s greeting...

Hast Thou
Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?

My unripe hairy-brain makes its claim
to be the image of its Father.
My vision today
could turn a green leaf brown,
or scorn itself, seeing only
the thoughts that feed it.

Harder To Take Bush From Salman
Easier from a bush to take a man

Despite apparent education
Acquired with much hype

Thought Experiment
Total darkness
Eyes opened or closed there is nothing but black
Everywhere
Hairs and nerve endings stretched to the limit
Feeling nothing
no clothing
no temperature
no moisture
Utterly weightless
Ears ring with complete silence
Heart pounding unheard
Exhale – inhale not even a hush
Panicked...

Poet's Song
It is in the first of morning
that I sense my magnum opus--there
among that which is most mundane,

Illegal Dying
Illegal Dying
On pursuit of greed
On pursuit of fame-
Gambling with precious life
Is no longer funny play.
We don’t guard ourselves
Marmon broke all bounds
Greed, flood gates opened
There’s a deluge
That inundates humanity.
We’re bait in water
Thrown by bungee jump

Et and Other Poets
The mind is a long walk home,
dinosaurs unnamable
litter the green turf
of our travels.
Reptiles shrink to birds,
the larger birds collapse like balloons
eventually running out of sky.
Lizards rest in the top nest
of every reaching spine.
Some imagine waking...

Stand On the Word.
She stands tall
a pillar of virtue
cloaked in morality.
Looks with disdain upon would be seducers

sin ridden earth.

that sucks at her feet
attempting to woo her.

Black Dog
Its raven skin follows without a 'woof,'
no bark no bite,
darker than a shadow in sunlight.

staring with 'Edgar Allan Poe,' ebony eyes.
At dawn it's at the bedside,
wanting to wander into the morning...

Stranded By Him
It’s getting cold.
I rub my hands to create friction
and my feet feel like they’re no longer here.
My ears hide behind my hair,
sheltering from the breath of air
that the wind throws at me.
Seven-thirty-five on a Friday...
