in her accommodating slenderness
as she feints at her salad.

A Poem For My History Teacher
I wanted to write
The best slavery poem ever written—
Perhaps win a Pulitzer or Faulkner.

Of modern verse and composition,
Lyrics fluidly written,

Ironbar
He just appeared to me, like wispily curling
Chimney smoke,
One grim and early morning in the very midst of
Decembers briefest days, on the highest slope,
Toiling through my daily round; where, slowly
Driving up...

The Drummer

as he beats of humanity wrapped in a shroud.
Well he beats of the rape and the killing of war
and the mind mangling sorrow we blithely ignore

A JUNETEENTH PRAYER
A JUNETEENTH PRAYER
Closing our eyes is easy…it’s probably the best way
to think, to hope, to dream…to make a wish…to kiss…to pray.
The quiet darkness behind our eyes is where we start
to heed the teachings of our...

An Omen of the Taste of Twilight
Vanished
the wild magic of this place;
this wilderness I now roam alone
as its lifeblood seeps
into
Afterlife

across time and distance
go unanswered -
Oh, how I long to join again
in my brethren’s song..
fading sunlight falls in...

Pariah heap - savagely subjecting myself to humiliation
Pariah heap - savagely subjecting myself to humiliation
Outward slovenly appearance bespeaks volumes
wordsworth their weight in gold
(exhumed from the pith
of these lovely bones -
beclothed with mottled skin)
presages afterlife of hellish horror
(think Dante's inferno),
nevertheless a respite from...

Strange Love
We are surrounded,
sometimes aversively beset,
upset,
by diverse warm and colder felt attributes of love.
We have each known and felt candidates for resonance,
waiting for our more stringent,
yet also generous,
articulation.
Those remaining who believe unfettering capitalism

When You Wear a Dirty Shirt
When you wear a dirty shirt,
You're a book getting judged by its cover.
People think you're really poor, or nutty,
Or that you have a menial job.

And then they throw in...

for wolfen corps from Hell have entered in.
They surge in packs, savagely unleashed,
to mutilate the innocence within.
Let ev’ry child and mother of its name
be fodder for this apathetic rage.

Moscow II
As swift assaults endeavored to prevail,
the magnitude of death was asinine.
‘Twas such a toll above a measured scale
that no explicit value could define.
As battles raged, no exploit could surmount
the endless waves that fell within the...

Winter - a Hard Place
A damp, dank odour pervades the saturated forest; pungent. acrid;
The stench an assault on the human senses:

Seeping easily between the debris;...

Very bountiful but deadly
The kingdom where only the
Fittest survive and thrive
Striving seriously for a living
The weak and fearful are preys
Societal programming the tools.

To a crowd of commons, lost and unsure:

Needs must be pacified
By human blood,...

Stopping a few stairs below her

Level with his blue eyes

The old cottage was in a dilapidated state. Fifteen years had passed
Since my sister died. The only thing of interest was a dusty old box.
I lifted the lid: a broken flute, a sort of diary
