Contract Against Greatness
In Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged"

Prescribing Rebirth To Dt2
DT2 came to me, unwillingly and clandestinely,
only because he was referred by his mother,
who was concerned that he was growing up and out
to become an ego-terrorist,
and she had heard of my feminist work as ecotherapist--
so...

Dramatic Monologue
Gold Is Your Soul
Gold is your soul
The drive there will be boring.
The arrival so momentous!
The disappointing greeters;
The sights not quite as expected.
The smell at times will be rancid.
The art of it all will be lost.
They will say “Welcome...

Wind Whispering
Mentors with the BeeTrees
From NorthWinds
come darkening winter
as newborn discontent
waiting to spring forth.
From SouthWinds
come summer's diastasis
climax of full-born wisdom,
contentment for and from all four directions
spread across sleeping hearts
of each nighttime regeneration.
From normalizing WestWind toward East colonializing

What Might Be Seen
Natural predication
greets sacred promise
to restore peaceful justice.
Omnipresent predication
greets polypathic promise
for restoring love as grace-filling justice.
Omnipotently disintegrative powers
of HellFire prediction
too quickly settle for monoculturing retribution,
punishment
due to FallenNature's past spiritual sins
in absence of paid-forward
gift economies
for notnot co-arising

Barney's Song
As I awake this morning
I remember a Barney song
for my more oppositionally misaligned daughter.
I love you
and you love me
even if I couldn't realign my four B's,
Brain,
and Branches,
and Belly,
and Butt,
these four aligned
good government.

Spirits In the Wood
Standing all alone in the woods;
eyes shut, I feel the lilting light.
Sun dodges needles through the crown,
beams land on my skin softly so.
Brisk breezes quicken and rustle.
Bristlecone pines ever sway slowly,
while pockets of air blush...

Moscow I
It caters to an arrogance of hate
when war becomes a method of despite.
Through vile contempt, he seeks to cultivate
a dogma that defines inhuman blight.
The devil’s plan has given due consent
to let annihilation be the goal.

Soul Stance River - 21
Four days have been spent going about like goats
following curves and ravines, climbing cliffs and being tortured by prickly pears
the cactuses from hell that I'm certain are alive and plotting to puncture our feet,

Mad Men In High Places
If the world were a soccer ball I'd be mighty tempted
to kick it high to kingdom come.
After what I learned today I feel ripped off,
feeling the sparse warmth of a dimmed out sun.

Portrait of a Nightmare
In the boxed gilded frame exists the residue of
A painter’s vision, of his nightmare placed upon
Canvas.
Locked within the cells of four square,
Lies a view into the ethereal world beyond our
Conscious mind.
A heckling demon does laugh,...

Taking Mom To the Prom
The rented hall ways so surreal.
Cheerful alumnus ranting sex appeal.
Forgive my dropping a time bomb.
Taking Mother to the prom.
Our student body didn't shake.
All others escorted steady dates.
A proclivity prom, above all others.
Our band encrypted, "The...

On a Maniac
I’m a maniac.
So is everyone
Or they are just dull—by default.
I’ve always been excited
About something or the other—all my life.
I was, for instance, a cricket maniac once,
Swinging the bat,
Though I didn’t swing well...

On the Road To Vezalay Part 1
I was on the road to Vezalay, for Richard and his
quest. All the Christian knights would gather from
countries east and west. The papal hordes would
vindicate, and our swords and banners blessed.
As I walked the woods...
