Long Probabilities Poems

“Upon Waking”


Slumber has its upsides 
while the outside runs around
like a split fowlyard,

like dull background noise
through the fog of dream 
the sound of the gamble...

What to do,
how respond,
to totalitarian tyranny
in someone else's home
or community
or economy?

OK, good question,
I hope,
yet with ample precedent
in polycultural battles to attain harmonious balance
where we have become monopolistically lost.

What do you do,
how respond,
to monocultural stimuli
advancing in...

...Of course he had arranged it all
in a place where they’d find nothing,
the sports world mourned this ‘tragic death,’
police couldn’t find anything.

That opened up a murder spree,
though no one could see it as such,
he roamed...

I am sitting down with my pen,
in a faraway land
For many days, I recalled my memories,
That faded with poor calories
I want to share the aesthetic childhood
spent in the lap of a maternal knighthood.

I never understood people who claim that,
they “believe in God”, but not in his creations…
Angels, demons, spirits or that all animals have souls.

Why many who believe in the “Holy Spirit”,
deny the existence of “spirits” seen...

DEADLY SIN- LIE

SALIGIA,
Or the seven deadly Sins,
Covers all the probabilities
Of peccadilloes,
That could be committed by the HUMANITY.

It is like a sentiment

 It can make...

A venetian red yearling’s head
Pops up
From behind a fallen log
Licks rouge from its lips
And the syrup sipped from dark maple bark
Ears tweaking
To the snow-crunch creak
Of my dog and me approaching
From down the trail

Forest
Tamed by these...

Blind Faith

So, even the expression, blind faith, makes my blood boil.
 
I've had one too many conversations with "intellectuals" who disdainfully look down on us believers for believing in a Creator. They imply by the...

The sharp knife of simplicity 
cut a transverse incision through my scalp.
The hands of hope gutted out my psyche,
deconstructed my mind,
and organized it into a coherent tumor

Beautiful summer day. You know you're gonna die
that's why you know no joy.
Obsessed with self, there is no answer
unless religion, tv, stories, sports matter.
So what if nothing rhymes and I don't

An occasional chance encounter
With a stranger on the street 
Can change life like a tidal wave
And lift us off our feet.

Like the dance of rolling dice,
Is filled with rhythm, love and hate

No, Speaker Ryan,
you do not speak for me

Could beliefs be wrong
I've survived for too long
in a world full of conflicts,
wilting nascent innocence--
with venomous fearful experiences..

Broken dreams crawl to breathe
inflicted with harsh realities
unaware of masked conspiracies
in fiery oceans of betrayal,
now pound against my...
