Dear Anxiety, Collaboration With the Silent One
Dear anxiety
Nemesis to my reality,
mental manipulator of tentative trust,
massacring my once sagacious soul -
you cut me into a slice of loneliness.
The fault is in our thoughts,
so I am haunted by the things you never said.
You...

What's Going On - What Is It

Answer Me This
Americans have overcome many great trials,
But harbor too some persistent denials.
Stubbornly clutching long-held positions,
Over time have become national traditions.
Pride in the sanctity of individualism,
Elevates in stature, creating a schism.
Unresolved core beliefs, rationalization,
Test the thinking of...

Fear
What is fear?
It clutches and binds you;
Its clinch constricts your conscience and gestures.
It degrades and damages you;
Its triumph abolishes your own proficiency to prosper.
It stops and holds you;
Its impeccable knack of holding you still is...

In a jungle greened mist

Sweven - Part Two
[Continued from Part One]
Was this town a phantom heaven,
an imaginary sweven?
Oh deluded humankind!
It was a figment of their mind.
We are here; it’s where we are—
no use wishing on a star…
Still, this sweven heaven’s real—
more than...

Final resting place
Brick by brick I built my walls,
despite fires raging,
I preserved paths that connected
bridges between our breathless existence.
Now that my heartbeats
have reached a dead end street,
let me rest my jaded head
upon your chest -
for fate...

Plagued by Memories
Like an albatross enfolded around my silencing throat,
squeezing ever tighter,
asphyxiating on sins not of my own.
A scarlet letter has been placed upon my weeping chest;
without hesitation, punishment...

The Incognizant Dance With Death

Avoidance, denial, deception, delusion.
Thing's that we use to not see the conclusion.
The randomness of truth causes continual deflection,
due to constant reminders of our prevailing direction.

Grow Global, Dear Frankie Ace
Towards thy very best
I project a saving nest
To save the wordy test
From the earthly pest
And to luck, leave the rest
As pure as a blank page
That gets poets' hearts into cage
The worries and bubbles of age
Get...

You cross my path today
In solitude and silence

Giving my heart a brief indulgence.

Human Beings Are Provisional
Human beings that we are here,
live as provisional creatures,
occupying provisional bodies,
possessing provisional life,
speaking provisional language,
in equivocal temporal existence.

Let’s review this claim 150 years to come

I Slap My Wrist
We wait for news of the sale of our house,
our home. Weeks pass. Unsettled. Unable
to focus on anything else. All seems
temporary; provisional or not relevant.
I call to mind patients needing patience;
waiting for results. Not...

The Wait
Sitting in silence
surreptitiously meditating
on everyday turmoil
and confusion that repulses
even the most hardcore
reality driven populists
Thoughts come and go
within the realm of
preposterous assumptions that convey
nothing of importance
just pass the time
as you ponder what appears
to be insignificant in...

Punguage
The modern world is an awe-choice saturation
Of stuffness and people,
A punguage,
An allcode,
The hash of all cyphers, nodes and codices
Ever scribed, wrote and written,
Bitten off, stolen or torn,
The mash of all knowledge,
The thrash of all oars...

Gray wolves howl, horned owls summon their young

Junipers nest in crevices of metamorphic rocks
Clover and strife are bedded by the light dew settling
In the west the stage retains its natural beauty
