Hands
Hands
By
Jude Kyrie
Mind wandering in my chair.
I travel back in a time long ago.
So many years have flown bye.
As many as the falling leaves
in autumn.
I think of Mom and Dad
and my older sister.
They have all...

When Silence Speaks To Me
Uncanny inexplicable silence surrounds me unexpectedly,
when in the centre of a noisy demanding crowd,
every bit of sound evaporates, fades in total darkness,
people around me, familiar and unfamiliar ...
I perceive them in action - laugh,...

Four Foot Caskets
They shouldn’t need to make caskets only four feet long
Pediatricians shouldn’t have to specialize in oncology
Scarves shouldn’t be worn by ten year old girls
To protect their bald heads as caused by radiology
Little arms shouldn’t bare...

The Superman

my heart beating louder than a pack of screaming hyenas.
I walked out with them quiet and safe in their parents arms.
I improvised a speech to an...

Depression Makes a Lousy Breakfast
Drapes are closed but the sun gets through
Summer morning, birds a-tweeting
Sweat on sheets, personal dew
Two more snoozes then up for meeting
A chunk of mahogany
Surrounded by suits
Well-shaved chins
Playing silk flutes
Golden cuff links
Slide over shine
Reaching for Perriere:
Businessman's...

Ballad
Thoughts At a Faculty Meeting
A Meeting after an eight hour day
Should include jubilant jiving,
Exciting conversation,
Lively chatter,
Not a speaker who drones on and on and on and on and on and on
In a disgustingly un-metered monotone voice
No lilt
No cadence
No melody
Just...

Three Crows and a Hawk
three crows and a hawk,
flying together

a sign of the times
my mind sees such things
written in the sky
on October 7th,
my birthday,
i was celebrating
in a Christian conference
with a roomful...

Loneliness
It creeps into your soul like a thief in the night
Surrounding you, drowning you
It gets its claws in tight
Pulling you under
Making you weep
You toss and you turn
And you just can't sleep
It makes you...

Hicksville Part I
In my mind I'm a cowpoke
Glass of jack in my hand
Watching Texas Two step
To a Texas Swing Band.
I've got slim line Levi's jeans
And a black Stetson hat
and tooled leather boots
I'm a real cool cat.
There's no...

Palmolive
In this Generation,
Society is so far gone with the likes of sex, drugs, partying and alcohol,
It’s like we’re in Another World.
With only One to Life to live,
It’s amazing how much we don’t realize the contributions...

Friendship
She has remarkable social ability
To charm with humor and empathy
Her graces are of southern variety
A renaissance lady in modern society
Our journey of life's ups and downs
Is that of long talks, smiles and frowns
When one is...

Silence
When silence listens to me in a serene moment,
I imagine strolling on a village-path
Meandering to the unknown,
The verdant grass I tread on, is velvety soft,
I remember my mother’s soothing touch,
The vermilion sky leans and whispers...

Good Day, Cynic
Good day, cynic
==
A good day begins with the simple wrong of waking up.
Waking up? Again? But it is the good day. Grabbing a cup,
gripping its warmth with both the hands he touches the shower.

Khaki Has Never Other Fabrics Liked
Khaki has never other fabrics liked:
It has even their wearer’s bodies disliked,
Their forgivable flaws, their blunders hyped
And their names and their nicknames mistyped!
Sometimes you hear, “Like onions slice them!”
And begun a solving of what...

Turning Away
I stand in front of my father's work;
How I look for myself and bring my story
And still it is not heard. Nothing here
To tell me what to believe. Nothing
But color, shapes he has seen,
Taken for...

Sound Behind the Door
—The sense of sound—
He was curious, he opened the door,
he heard a scream, then he yelped.
He suddenly banged the door,
someone cawed from behind the door,
it changed to crackle crackle,
then became an incessant echo.
He again opened...

Son Touches Fathers Gun
Bennett Kenneth got an eyeful
Upon touching his dad’s rifle:
An eyeful by far more helpful
Than Dad’s angry words - a roomful…
Or so had reasoned Mister Ken,
Who had Bennett taught more with pen,
Ben’s tasks to write things...
