Flint
Within its brilliance gleaming
Cool black in lacquered polished silver chrome
Cranked up pistons bleached in summer’s heat
Hot steam rising as gears thundering
Beyond the crystal liquid city lights
Highways built across the land
In hearts felt pride American...

Heat Lightening
Heat Lightening
by Michael R. Burch
Each night beneath the elms, we never knew
which lights beyond dark hills might stall, advance,
then lurch into strange headbeams tilted up
like searchlights seeking contact in the distance . . .
Quiescent unions...

Tortured by desire to understand
The world and the God’s mind
Like a fearless seasoned sailor
He embarked an elegant boat
Of extreme mental endeavor

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 28
Quietly, the memory of my grandfather manifested itself,
In the colors and shimmers of the Holy Spirit,
I saw his human face,
The familiar lines, the flesh,
The pair of oceanic eyes, slowly blinking
Smiling,
Like a heavenly beam
Splashing...

Crop Failure - Bitter Harvest
The past can’t tell the future; I'd almost forgotten this,
The past six years had brought me higher yields than average,
Though expectations soared, now nada, nothing, zilch.
Our wheat fields decimated from the lack of rain.
And those...

These Are My Words Of Death
I never could live without leaving something behind—
a trail of words, a bottle of bourbon,
and now these reflections,
because we can’t escape the truth forever.
The world smells like a battlefield,
and though I was never afraid to...

Loving Jose
Yes, Jose,
this is another love letter
from anthroprivileged me
to LeftBrain dominant you
for multicultural us.
I'm still here
sinking into my deep blue camp chair
with feet resting on a weathered
wooden platform
for my monastic tent
Now folded
and masterfully squeezed into its...

VERSE 1:
Drenched soul placed on a bench,
Avengers revenging not ready to repent;
Edge of grudges they always entrench,
Dreading of fate, that's what they depend.

Pitching and hitching...

The Curse of Black Beard
Down deep beneath fathoms icy keep, where deadmen’s
Scream in utter silences aquatic hell, amongst the devils
Graveyard of wreckage's carnage, there exists a ghostly harbor
Of phantom ships!
Anchored are the souls of the undead, and vessels craft...
