le livre bleu

“le livre bleu” 

Terabytes.
lonely poets, writers, 
musicians and artists play here,
they wear masks that cover
vermillion dripping smiles
over sharp little wolverine teeth,
they drown their sorrows in their muses -
contemporary little monsters – Still Life, 
they call...

Incredible Product Warnings

By Elton Camp

Far from folly this hair dry warning is keeping
In telling snoozers, “Do not use while sleeping”

Boulder To Aspen

I left Friday midmorning for a weekend getaway
A four-hour jaunt to Aspen; just wanted to play
No purpose for the trip; just for the experience

Lockdown

We can’t go out so what to do?
How do we spend our time?
Imagination, racing thoughts
My brain on overtime.

There’s gardening, painting, DIY
Non urgent jobs to do,
They’re boring and predictable,
I need stimulus, tried and true.

That lazy dog...

Wave of Fantasy

Gyro dynamic tempos to clench the soul, 
And gnawingly let go,

And let grow further away into context,

Liberating thoughts from their hidden role.
Awakening dormant expressions with grace.

You Can Push the Button Down Longer

But the button wants to do its thing
How many things can the button do
If you push the button down longer
the button then becomes slightly
more uncomfortable 
I think it is like a trigger mechanism
you could amble...

With technology I don’t understand

The Hummingbird Fantasy King

Mr. Smith sat tiredly, long hours at his desk,
by an old vacation photo, picturesque,
and a stack of papers; another twelve-hour day,
slowly, draining his lonely life away.

He looked at the picture and thought he heard

Happiness Lies Within

Why do we search so far and wide


for fruitless quests of worth?

Why strive for others to conform while


espousing how needy they are?

Pondering a Winter Dusk

I ride the bus...

Tilt a bit, balance-
ponder later. Yolk yellow 
and sky blue, chalk

grey paint. Steel
rectangles; winding parallel 
lines. Circles- Eternal.

Toothed horizons-
golden rose shaped sunset
tauten, its nectar 

steeps; blushes. Inks gnarled
columns of trees, dusky, their
limbs...

its hand carved ivory handle
to the light of a flickering candle
It appeared to dance and...
