Long Rewound Poems

My husband and I always enjoy visiting
GrandMother Eartha
on Mother's Day

She often shares
last night's dreams,
which too often follow rather disturbing peak experience themes

Because,
you know,
or maybe not because,
how would I know?

Dreams about Her Straight White AlphaMale trauma

There once was a man with Trumpian crown
so heavy it caused him to frown
when he gave it away
some folks say to this day
it grew lighter while revolving 
more democratically healthy around.

There once were most men...

[Intro]

Times have changed
And we've often rewound the clock
Since Nixon got the shock 
When he crashed on Daley’s bloc
If today
Any shock they should try to stem
'Stead of...

In the tapestry of time, a story is spun,
Of hearts entwined beneath the sun.
It began in the halls of youth's embrace,
Where two souls met, face to face.

In the halls of Primary, their eyes did meet,
A...

The girl was legend

All empty eyes & purple painted smiles. Every sweet white inch of her. And everyone knew 
her name

She danced in satin skirts that only moved when she took them off. She was...

Thumbs Up To The Journey

At the footbridge as it bridges past from present future and perspectives your
feet might be-come and may be-go confused be-fuddled as can your mind before
the shadows rainbows feathered fancy pastel tunes...

The random swaying of the truck on broken roads roused me from my slumber. The same random swaying that had pushed me past the threshold of sleep. There were snow clad mountains till the eyes...

Granules of recollection rub like salt 
Flailing in the fog of seven years ago
Deafened by incessant frog cries
Vines dangling began attaching to each other 
Drying river stagnated, slime slippery with algae 
Vigorous tree growth stooped...

My hand splits the deck, divides the weight  
of galaxies and shadows, halves of fate.  
At a drive-in, the Cutlass grows hot; glass bursts  
like safety-grade stars scattered between laps,

Today, I was determined to fly a kite;
There was plenty of wind with no clouds in sight.
Strenuously I checked the strength of the twine;	 
I didn’t want any troubles fouling up my line.
The knots that...

There he was! Staggering in the corridor, in
Clean white shirt, white bow, and white trouser
All white even the shoes, except his brown leather hat
Covering his bold head with few hairs his comb never missed
Bade everyone...

It's 4am in the morning
And I just rolled out of bed
Burdened by memories, that you've brought to my dreams
That still live on, inside of my head

Now I'm searching for a pen and some paper
To help...

Here I am again but this time it isn’t really me
I am slowly dying inside
Why doesn’t anyone see?

I am unraveling and ready to break
Unable to understand the emotions inside of me 
Unsure of what causes...

Psychedelic Sound 
 
So you look at me and wonder why
I'm this kinda guy who doesn't even try
Seemingly I'm content to just get high
 uninterested in your world of suit and tie

Sitting in a car 
Coming from the bar 
After studying the law 
While waiting for an agent’s call

SEAGULLS SOAR ON SORROW STREET

I to suffer such insufferable grief
I to suffer being a thief
I to veer from this avenue
I to steer from this street
I to find the fork and foe

You’re still the same untouched and aloof
Too sharp for lies too blind for proof
No one comes close to your pace
A ghost with charm…a vanished face

Money chased becomes a stain
Crossing the line to dance in the...

There are so many people and events I miss.
I'd like to live it over - not just reminisce.
Could I make life better if the tape was rewound,
and I played in that movie the next time...
