Always toking strong
A continual breeze blowing on
Meanwhile a lot kept going wrong

Over petty things they were so fond
Forming such a close bond
Among all these neutrons and protons

A lot done in a week
Answers found where rivers...

she sat there with only one tear rolling alone to drip between her knees
Splattering on the tidal flow below.
Cross legged with ankles aching on wet jetty stone
Cold wet jetty stones gathered from God knows where

When I am on the hunt if I want fresh
I choose young, it is always fresher meat.
Young bunnies, squirrels, rats, moles, voles.

Abruptly pouncing
Slowly retreating
Again and again
White froth churning 
My eyes watering
My throat tightening
I open my mouth

When you look at me closely 
Your face is what...

Whiter than snows atop higher tors;
And with more troth dudes did kiss
Purer maidens for pleasanter bliss.

a splattering of thunder, lightning, rain
no sticks nor stones

The Poem I Never Wrote

Is still on my lips 

Buried treasure at the time

Now it's a barnacle on the ships side 

And with each passing year

It keeps growing and growing

In infamy 

In its infancy, some...

As time always sped by
You can't read this in the headlines
There won't always be a next time
People still fed by
Carefully spread lies
Through a never ending feud over dead guys
It'll take more than ten tries

Challenge 
You to stop 
Messing up the 
Planet. Recycle, it’s not hard to do.
No more litter should be done. The earth
Is sick. The oz-
