Long Renovations Poems

Headlights messaged through midnight windows 
Curtainless glass unable to subdue the urgency 
Car obtained in street nearby was theirs temporarily
Three hour drive to ship leaving island next morning

Two sixteen year old girls barely registered surprise...

Date: February  2051

It was a cool winter morning. No
Troubles all probable possibilities
Rounds out to be a winning networth
Of $375 billion fortune for 
Damian. He was in Contemplation
 style in his office for a while
He...

My son came home from school one day, wanting permission to go, to the Zoo.
His field trip sparked a riot. Can you imagine at home, what immediately ensued?

The wind blows in my hair
Pushes it to my face
Can't think about that now
I have important things to do
Get inside
No

I have to sit outside
I have to think
Inside is choices
Inside is freedom lost
Out here I have...

It is a small investment; this property out in the scrub.
A building that is shabby in it’s ‘hey day’ was a pub.
Blackberries scramble over it, with the sheds in disrepair;
yes the Autumn Creek Hotel needs...

Wise Postulations of Existance for The Damned

Solitude the pathway for self authentication
Interludes of what to say in the process of individuation
Attitudes of slow decay born from ill-considerations
Platitudes in early May about spring time commiserations

Various forms...

At the time of the incident, I lived in an old mansion,
that was undergoing renovations and expansion.
Outside the night was dark and a storm was raging,
but, I was cozy in the library with hundreds...

I wanted so badly 
to know every darkened piece of coal 
beneath your sooted mantle
See for myself how every well lit pane
Became a sunlit stage
Where the glittered dust danced so graceful
How every long hallway corridor...

My phone is vibrating yet again. I picked up my phone and see a number and a name flashing.

Humpty Dumpty House

A home.
The one he promised you.
That white picket fence,
light flooded rooms.
A swing on a tree in the front yard.

He promised,
I'm sure he did.
He promised,
to fill it with laughter.
It was where you were both...

I rise slowly and turn on the TV
that's my  50" HD
I check the world news first
my HD digital box scans them all

Just a hillside of junk was all that could be seen
in a yard once beautiful, well-kept and pristine.
With abandoned vehicles, overgrown shrubs, 
household appliances, machinery and rugs,
creating all around the most horrendous of scenes.

Cluttering shadows walls with window box residue inside these rooms....

Considering now the hands of times potter and I, but its clay ~

While gently closing these...

Through the ravages of time
Those youthful faces appear
As friendship and memory
Erases the damage of years.
The conversations continue
As though  never broken
Just an extended break until
The next words were spoken.
We all drink the same drinks
Though they...

Books to the library
photos to family.
Paint cans and lumber
from renovations years ago.
Most of the furniture
including the piano.
Fastest way to do this
is rent a dumpster.

On the internet
nothing’s permanent.
I like that.
Photosynthesis, evaporation
as if your spirit disappears
when the...

Bronco Don visits….

A cancer took my father away,
The smokers curse he had to pay,
But he returns, we hear him still,
When he pulls my big toe,
With subtle skill,
As he did when I was little,

“Come on boy...

It snowed in Baghdad yesterday;
The Whales will have to find 
Somewhere else to go;
The Islands are SOLD OUT.

The traffic in the sky
Is going to get worse;
As the Earth floods again,
The Lost City of New Orleans...

I would like to announce my presidential candidacy.
I would appreciate it if you'd vote for me.
If I were president do you know what I'd do?
Pretty much anything that I wanted to.
I'd have a first class...

Choosing which shade of white,
drives most people up the wall.
There's at least 
152 shades of white 
to choose from.
Despite being well: "Just White" 
It's the subtle hue, blah blah, 
hubris and hoo-ha,
that comes to the...
