The Game of Hockey

Of big broken stones in round circle done
We reached up a more cruel clutter flank;

Are people who sense a direction in history,
and before history,
throughout prehistory,
who feel their way through organic-systemic evolution,

As climate pathology peaks
toward climax conditions

LeftBrain privileged blindness
and deafness,
tastelessness
replacing savoring,

Absence of green
and sea salty blue
fragrance,

progresses up through
our current bimillennial cusp,

With...

I can feel the atmospheric pressure plummet
As the thunderstorm approaches.
Although the pressure is falling,

Every inch of my body begins to swell.
Slowly...

nowadays damn near everyone in refrain
rites and rituals --

Construction starts.
The night is shaken by booms and bangs
Of trucks, of heavy machines!

Life As Perceived Reality

We believe and think what beings we are;  
Juiced up ready to expel our seeds
to create new generations of replications.  
Each with different bumps and rinds divided within, 
but in...

Nomads, prides outcasts, existing on the fringes edge of
Survival.

Haunted silhouettes passing in the night, casting eerie images
Against...

clean, the 
moonlight hits the 
chrome 380, makes...

I destroy childhoods and tear homes apart.
	I make you neglect your bills and blacken your heart.
  
	I’ll cost you a small fortune. I’m more valuable than gold.
	No matter how expensive, I’m normally gone before...

when scorpions crawling on the boiling sands 
dance the dance of death with tail culled up 
the gaudy toadstools grow in the dark and dampest spot
in the wasteland, and as day progresses the never-ending
