Long Retrained Poems

In Colchester, CT,
and possibly in your town too,
we have a LongTerm ReCoVery Committee
looking at 20/20 prevision
for post-pandemic climate health revisions
for wealthy local and global EarthJustice.

that might be economically
and ecologically win/win useful?

I long to see you       become forever well
filled with life and happiness  that from which we fell
I love you for the character      ...

It started on his first day of school
I was promptly labelled dunce and fool 
For being a lefty guess I wasn't cool
The yardstick across the fingers 
Left bruises to the heart that still lingers
Learn to...

Ago I watched a woman coax
A fellow back from death.
Sand clung to the drowned
Man's shoulder, briny fluid
Dripped from clustered hair
Breath pushed lung to throat

In that moment inelastic life
Crashed back upon the dead
like a shadow tsunami

He sent an orchid to a fresh young girl
He wanted to break through the walls of troy
The prize he won and he took his...

To deal with the pain
I?ve retrained my mind 
Every time I have a memory of you
Every time I have a dream about you at night

I will visualize a red button that says delete

My boss thought he was so clever
not giving me a raise for extra responsibility

End my mind pollution


I know that I’m addicted
Although it’s self inflicted
Life is not what I depicted
To this I am convicted

I don’t want any help
I want to do it myself
My efforts are in vain
It’s impossible to...

It appears to be inevitable,
    That conflict is renewed.
Where passions outweigh the passive,
    Becoming arrogant and rude.

to find a reason to comply and stay
and dance with romance beneath stars that sigh
in a fragrant-scented night, I'll obey

A life spoken of too much
locks the museum door behind it.

If you write it all down
eyeballs will skate over the
rambling litter.
