Held Aloft

at ninety-one he now rejoined his wife,
no heirs to his estate, so one thing more
to do, and that's clear where he'd spent his life.
Downstairs had been quite...

Life explores integrity,
hoping to fulfill
all exploding polypathic
curiosities polyphonic.
How might history rewrite humanity
if those who adventured out
and eagerly invaded
felt more reluctant to dominate?
More sure that their long-term survival
in this, or any, non-native land
required them to...

Own Little World
I dream of a dank world where the fallen have flown to the ends of the universe to be
among the un born abominations who spin wild and free of social contraption.
These are the fortunate...

Theater of Utter Charm Part 22

how can there be any absolutes
with the clock ticking like it does

when it's one thing to be short on the rent
another thing to stay short...

In the undulations of thought, a whisper of freedom is born
In the undulations of thought, a whisper of freedom is born,
Like a silver river carving its path through cliffs of prejudice,
Whispering truths that ache, yet heal in their profound silence.
Words, those rebellious birds with wings...

Slim Fast
For the diet can not last
The weight that which we weigh
Is produced by the calories our mouth intakes
And if it is more cakes and bakes
Than salad and fiber breakfast flakes
The noise the scale's...

In the world of deep shadows and lights torn by time,
where every thought and inspiration twirls in the silence of the abyss,

How Words Decide Our Final Existence
The pen is mightier than the sword, but our power of speech comes from The Lord
W.O.R.D.S = S.W.O.R.D.
Words are my existence, they take me to where I need to go
carefully chosen, because from my...

Life Is What Happens
[ edit poem ]
Life Is What Happens
What a long, strange life it’s been.
Childhood and adolescence were close to normal,
I never felt quite right,
Never fit my image of a normal kid.
Dealing with internal demons for so...

A Nightmare of Erroneous Intuitions
his eyelids conclude why bother
manacled they led him away
to the exact center of their city
they tried everything
cattle prod fire hose blow dryer
ineluctable forces of nature
now there are wires in his head

Victims of Thalidomite
It’s not a dreaded story, created by Grimms*,
but shouldn’t it horror in us and reflection ignite?
Ten thousand children born with malformed limbs
and brain defects, which were caused by thalidomite.
Of comfort and joy to be normal...

Frank E Einstein
I am the progeny
Of lightning and stitch,
A Franken-hybrid
Of genius and glitch.
My circuits buzz with
Einsteinian thought,
Unraveling secrets
The universe has wrought.
Existence, I ponder,
Through photon and quark,
Grappling with questions
In the depths of the dark.
Am I a mockery, a...

Dramatic Monologue
A Scrappy Little Nest
Flightless, the smallest such bird,
he’s hopping about madly now,
dexterous little feet grab what they can -
he lost his beak decades ago
to a merciless marauder drone –
here, some tiny, thorny little twigs,
there, a footful of leaves...

Stop

Failure to come to a Complete Stop
Auto battery.
Clicking.
Depleted energy.
Feeling grumpy, harried,
Impatiently jump-start Kia.
Leave Mom’s neighborhood.
Octagonal, purely quintessential red sign taunts.
Upping velocity, willfulness exacerbated, you zoom…
Yikes!
Extraneous white vehicle (undercover)...

Thought Police
I'm afraid
So afraid
Of being arrested
By the thought police
Their rules are many
Think this
Think that
Don't diverge from the normal
Stop playing on the street corner of tomorrow
Let sleeping dogs rest
Do not question
Do not burn on passionate bonfires
I watch...

Lyrical Assassination
Conviction so precise, I launch missiles of truth
Indestructible rhymes, unbreakable and shatterproof
Infiltrating your foundation and breaching your walls
Collapse on your composure cause your conscience to fall
I can convert your beliefs, cause philosophical treason

There were six flowers, and six flowers only
My leaves made way for the piercing eyes of the sun
Which helped them give way
For me to look at their vibrant...

Contradictions
the Priest sucked in his Four Star Brandy
hoping that a drunken release

in an alcoholic sleep of peace
the alky swigged his cider
vintage cheap and strong

making existence crawl...

Drown.
Thousands of people drowning in their self perception.
Hundreds of people, searching for a place.
Tens of people changing to fit in.
One person, feels alone.
She sits at home and no one even knows,
She’s breaking down, to the...
