A Milton Creek Update
There's been a heck of a lot goin' on in and around Milton Creek.
Folks are ridin' in from far away. I fear trouble some might seek.
There's been big gold nuggets found not too far away...

My Beloved Antichrist
Raised off tales of a biblical nature,
I had always been warned,
About a particular creature,
The devil bound to human flesh,
To bring us destruction,
To bring us death,
He will speak the truth,
In a way that lies,
The false prophet...

Faraway Footsteps
Faraway Footsteps
How present
This past
Called memory
Hollow sole dragging
Hobnail boots
Caked with crud
Mud
And oil
Atop the landing
"Drop them greasy clothes"
Came the sometimes loving voice
The sometimes malevolent voice
But always his wife's warning
My mother's caring way
So many years past
When linoleum's impoverished...

The Three Little Pigs
The Three Little Pigs
The three little pigs
Had lost their wigs
So now all the animals saw
Was three little bald wiggly pigs
They had pen and paper
Pigs writing poetry
They said oinking and inking was in their nature
We have...

Zeirgeist
Zeitgeist - My 1960s - Liz Walsh
Kaftans, mini-skirts, Carnaby Street fashions.
Angel Delight, Hirondelle wine and that sheepskin rug.
"The price of round steak on a Saturday" while
Magdalen Laundries kept dark, dark secrets!
Nylon socks, Cuban heeled boots,...

I'M Still Hearing the Voices
They say 'you've got it kid',
but first you gotta rid
yourself of all that fakery,
the constructed rhyme
like rye and flour primed
to exit out the bakery,
and you cannot, should not
loaf, or doubt anything
you ever wrote, it's progress-
but...

A Knife's Edge Draws Blood
Dangers plague the rebellious world in which we live
Too much greed and vengeance. Too few willing to forgive
It's a never-ending war cry of accuse, fight, and repeat
We’re all walking along a knife's edge with bloodied...

Bobcat Moon
She sits on the porch in a cool desert night
A bobcat stalks prey in the day's fading light
The moon looks like a big orange in the blue
Evoking old memories she thought she outgrew
Memories of nights...

Walking on a Knife's Edge
Dangers plague this shambolic world in which we live
where many seek vengeance and are not apt to forgive.
It's a never-ending cycle of accuse, battle, and defeat
at any cost, walking on a knifes edge with bloody...

Marshal Dan
The marshal saddled up as dawn broke over old Dodge City.
Upon town rabble and mean hombres he took no pity!
He donned his ten-gallon hat and strapped on his gun.
On his vest the marshals' badge gleamed...

Childhood Heroes
I tried to hide it from my mom,
I did not want her mad at Dad;
But I’d sneak his Wild West Weekly
On every single chance I had.
They were Daddy’s small indulgence
These stories of the old wild...

Loving Sprinkles
Tears rolling down the cheeks
mournfully sighs
falling in a deep lingering thought
Whispering inside silently
I lay a sheepskin rug of purest white
upon the ground for you
love me not ,want me not

Surrender
The heart within pumps
The rich red royal fluid
And your body machine functions
Your creative, expansive mind
Concocts formulae
Deciding how your body organism
Finds sustenance, enjoyment
And most of all avoids pain
The dreamer, you, perceive, create
As you build, block...

The Outsider
The Outsider
Ever ostracised from the truth
Lest they are known to well
By deceitfulness
The paranoia play of a black sheepskin coat
Is riddled with the placatory smiles
Of half spoken lairs
Nothing more supports the world
They come to deny
It is...

Moonstone Mansion
It's a place, beneath
dark sky island which
I created just for me.
A piece of eternity far
away from clouds, stars
or land.
To get there all I need is to
meditate, breathe deeply, place on my heart, these...

The Football Major
The Football Major
By Elton Camp
Though the big oaf can kick a football so high,
Of skills for college work, he lacks a good supply
The old saying is true in his case without a doubt

Not a Fairy Tale
I crossed hell's fire with my innocence shattered
A wolf in sheepskin
Was the downfall of my dreams
From a pure and sweet bliss
I was thrown in a guilt's abyss
My childhood memories
Now were tainted forever
In my innocent child...

Torment
Torment...
I lie awake at night and I can’t fall asleep
Recounting every single detail
Of my life that’s passed and surely can’t be lived again
Mistakes I’ve made and never learned from
I stare in darkness at the pictures...

I was a Butchers boy.

Some people liked our Pork Chops,

Contortionists Test
I enjoyed wrapping my mind around his words
Stretching my thinking
At times coming unglued
Reaching towards oblivion
While keeping my feet in multiple worlds
Standing on sinking ground
While leaning on granites precious solidity
The substance of imaginations inconsistencies
Tugging...

and drink the thoughts of those who rose
from dark eternal slumber bleak,
to steal the voice of those who speak

my effervescent dreams alight
