amid the darkening oaks, we fled ourselves
Once there were paths that led to coracles
that clung to piers like loosening barnacles
where we cannot return,...

Lizabeth's Henry Is Down and Gone Part IiRay has a hole, now, taps a long bar in,
And ties the winch to it, and turns it on,
“STAY BACK!” he howls, “THIS CABLE’S ALMOST GONE!”
The bar flies out, the cover slips, the din
The winch-engine...

where you meet people of different rages,

Spending My LifeWell, this morning began “a fine kettle of fish” to my taste
(ambiguity present and somewhat ironic), no waste
of intent here. ‘Walk’ mentioned proforma, ‘glazed doughnut’ from Stan’s (1)

Staring Into SpaceNo one knows about me here,
Alone with me, myself and I –
I have no urge to cry
No one knows what I feel…
I feel hope and no fear
Making a little effort to belong…
No, I’m not that...

I Can'T Go Anywhere Without My Damn NotebookI have no intuition, I hope you don’t either.
I mark down the strength of these rings
On my weak fingers
to make me stronger.
The glowing blue gem
Makes me powerful again
And again, I want to die.
It’s...

If Shoelaces Sang Little Rich Town BluesNot in tea leaves, in shoelaces tie existence--their harsh and meshing material

The Nana HexEvery time I get happy
the Nana-Hex
comes through.
A dog's canines
change into chainsaws,
toothpicks turn into knives,
coral reefs diverge into dirty sponges,
a sandcastle into a mausoleum,
a soldier-ant burrows deeper
into my borrowed grave,
reveille trumpets tap
a tip-toed...

Lost Time Doesn'T CirculateLost time doesn’t circulate

Brunette Silhouette CigaretteSmall shaped puddle holes, Come tumbling over my feet.

Shoelaces and Change of ClimateI first noticed a change in Climate,
When my shoes started to outlast their laces,
Which I thought unusual at the time,
As I had come to think of it as an unwritten law,
Probably one of Murphy's,
