Long Rerouting Poems

Where art thou anonymous benefactor...to offer me succor?

could be a boon to help me bolster 
mein kampf with necessary material equipage,
which prospect to acquire essential 
commodities sabotaged 
at the altar of...

April thirteenth two thousand twenty three
witnessed greatest amount of money
I spent at one time.

Where art thou anonymous benefactor...to offer me succor?

Castaway stranded on figurative 
deserted island pitted with absolute 
zero salvation, sole recourse 
finds scant consolation with prayer 
lifetime atheist draws futile faith 
within himself grudgingly accepting

feeble accomplishments...

Nope! I haint gonna crack'n on the heat... just yet
until the cowed chickens come home to roost!

Sunlight streaming thru window
body electric of mine doth whet
begets hardiness to acclimate
against PECO shut off threat
ideal opportunity to spouse

You'll never amount to anything
That's what I was told
I stop believing what people spoke 
It was getting old
I had full control of what and who I let in my life ??
Trying to fit in people...

The heat was high and rising
A shower came, but left too soon
   The temp was quite surprising
It wasn't even noon

   They thought it was a mirage 
As they stumbled upon a...

It’s always better to move on and not forget 
Why forget when you’ve been around so long
The future never shapes
It’s just some hope for the waste which is the past
I live in the moment and...

Every creative word just glues to the madness
and every blessed breath just oozes love-without-you sadness
Break and pauses
effects and causes
they all lead 
they all read 
heartache.
How much more do I have to take?
I just keep wishing...

Today I'm starting over again
With yet another chance.
To broaden my horizons
Although my years advanced
My competition undefeated
Always likes to race
That ageless legendary man
With numbers on his face
I passed this way, before today
Traveling with him, my friend
But...

Trapped in my own life, 
My thoughts are vague.
Lost in moments, I flip a page,
Skimming through to find solace.
Shadows of ruin blur my sight,
An illusion of wandering through the darkest nights.
Time passes by, it waves...

Drove lots of miles
To connect with old friends.
Whenever we see them,
The fun never ends.

We felt sad ‘cause we knew
We’d not meet again soon
And what also was true…

Was the trip home would...

Death is in relentless pursuit. 
It pervaded my thoughts, 
assaulted my senses.
I scramble, rerouting courses.
A thousand voices call out my name.
Taunts, screams, cries alike. 
Yearning, warning;
Calling, crying;
Run, run, run.
Run through the phantasmagoric vicinity-- 
The end...

20 Claps of Thunder

20 claps of thunder
19 kids are shouting
18 streets are flooding
17 lanes rerouting

16 lights are flashing
15 horns that blow
14 sirens wailing
13 weather men didn't know

12 umbrellas going up
11 old ladies fall down
10 times...
