Long Precipitated Poems

A harrowing drive on the Schuylkill Expressway
(route 76) both heading into
(and a small number of hours later
exiting) center city Philadelphia
to Schwenksville on May 19th, 2024.

Yours truly (a doodling Yankee), and the missus
went to town, NOT...

“Liber Novus”


Life is read
it bleeds continually
we simply need to stop
and breathe forgive

over misspent thought
too caught up and enraptured 
in the chapters we imagine

we always dream
best beginnings
and tidy arduous ends
unicorns in black matter

Life is...

Painful self actualization
quickly brights to light
paltry reasons (with or
without rhyme) a desolate sight
within blinkered mindseye hindsight

grotesque grimace shocks with affright
desolate landscape 
precipitated when airtight
vacuum sealed sequestered,
muckraked, furloughed...

which past existence now doth bite
back with a vengeance...

Its discovery agitated my emotions 
and I caught my breath. 
There you were - suspended - 
like some ancient fly held 
eternally in amber. 
Pose, expression, frozen - always.

Tropical quadra plateau, Amazing bright sunny,
Glided waterfall Carrying happiness in their gunny.
Long nodding flower's joyously plumed,
Everbody waving happily, the herald bloomed.
Eureka, I love this heaven on earth!

Hazy perished hills, houses trenching at the outskirts,
Swaning over...

Yours was a precipitated birth.
Poor soul, birthed into the hands of death.
Yanked you were from your cosy shelter,
By hands that craved the touch of silver.
Then there you were, so frail and tiny,
Tender flame blown off...
