Absolute deafening silenceAbsolute deafening silence...
during and after a moderate snowfall
today January 19th, 2024,
within Southeastern Pennsylvania
and elsewhere across the Eastern Seaboard,
whereby blanket of whiteness
muffles sounds of civilization.

regarding weather forecasters prediction,
especially when meteorologist
wannabe spouse doth...

Lighting the candles and pouring the lotions.

Checking on children asleep in the darkness,
Creeping up hallways like teenage lovers.
Stairs and hopes creaking...

Pavement of Repetition Part 1Walking the path each day
introverted thoughts in
cased in my skull
a boneyard of ebbing
memories and thought-processes

gnostic humanistic invocations,
joyously kickstarting literary

A box checked in a menu, a simple click and forget.
The rapid dilation of my pupils brings me back.
Back to hypnotic aisles of temptation and...

Send Mephistophelian Madman Back To Stone AgeImpossible mission, nonetheless

dire straits betokens armageddon.
Come Tuesday, November 3, 2020

Adieu To Mild Winter 2019This last day of February two thousand nineteen
Southeastern Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
unlikely to be inundated with heavy snowy scene
methinks buds will burst early issuing royal green
carpeting landscape, sans expert architects queen
"Mother Nature" commences to baptize spilling

Love Tossed and Twice LostWe had been up, down and sideways with lonely nights and solitary days.

Our heads began believing our wrongs could not discover our rights,
so we departed from all...

The ground was hot and the world seemed bounded
But up the sky the boastful sky bird glided gaily
Enjoying the boundless splendour of the universe
Huh! If only I had wings like that...

Recipe For Skullduggerycravings, like niggling whispers,
flit on covered tables
skitter on the floorboards
shiver nerves like humming cables
racing up my backbone
trembling spinal pathways
as I dive for pantry's knob
in a glucose fired craze
tearing through the shelving
jumping for the flour
cracking eggs...

News From HomeShe pulls the past together,
gathering weeds, twisting kelp,
squeezing minnows of memory
through shrinking nets.
My ex-wife phones
from a former home,
a village by the sea
now sinking
on a shelving shore.

he now gets rat-arsed on...

Satisfied preying on the innocent and cleansing the impure, while...

Shopping For Shoes At Century 21A store in New York City,
Selling “bargains” at top price,
Lures the locals and the tourists
Seeking upscale merchandise.
Yet their famous shoe department,

Is so customer-unfriendly,
It hits every single nerve.
From the samples set on shelving
Much...

Puffs of dandelion dust,
ignoring life, allowing hearts to rust.
Each day we rush upon ourselves,
shelving more decisions,
piercings and incisions,
