The Raven and The Bard
The Raven and the Bard
-Daniel Henry Rodgers
The Raven's quill drips shades of blackest night,
Its haunting words, a melody of fright.
The Bard's natural lines, like "Evangeline's" fair hair,
Shed history's warm light to chase away all care...

Freed from my mind

I think nothing of it
I believe in you
I believe in the American Dream
I think of it
I think nothing
I know you are something
How is it found

Do you know what it is like to be an untouchable?
To be so filthy and disgusting

Do you know how it corrodes your soul
To see how the stench that follows your...

Don'T Tread On Me
What is a life when you’re constrained,
your words bound up within your brain,
from fear of punishment without,
from tyrants or folks without doubt?
So all that matters can’t be said,
it makes the soul and spirit dead,
when men...

Calcivore, Part Iii
III.
Christine began crying, Zack vomited,
Klaus couldn’t move as he stared at the mess,
only stammering,“W-what could do this?”
Surely no beat to which they could attest.
Then came a rustling up above the falls,
and their horror transformed into...

White Wine And Feather Boa Dreams
I wrap myself
in feather-boa-fantasies of his dreams
sinuous pinot-grigio-me;
X-rated and never sated
dancing to rock ‘n roll— 80’s dated

welcome to the conjugal jungle
of not-so-rusted lust

Honey On Asphalt
In the crevices of a tired town,
roaches scuttle under moonlit sighs,
their dinky bodies torn by shadows
that shroud the crumbling edges of life.
A cat lounges, indifferent,
its gaze halfway between hunger and apathy,
as food spills—moldy bread,
booze-slicked...

Back To Bland Stew
I joined the graduation of a stupid situation
where everyone bar one was quite a grinner.
We put on our jester hat to knock one fella’ flat;
which didn’t mean that we turned out a winner.

Computer Chair Woes: a Collaboration With Chris :D Aechtner
How do people do it?
For that matter, how do I pull it off?
Sitting in front of the computer for so many hours,

Epiphany: a Poet In Love

Slavery
enslavement
force of self-imposed ownership
overpowering another's ego-ownership,
anthro-morbid,
collective ego-morphic tolerance of identity rape,
fear and anger, together building hate,
from which enslavement derives;
a culturally camouflaged nondual co-arising relationship
of codependent despair,
self-hatred.
Enslaving force perpetuates Ego's full-blown angry reduction
in self-identity,
deduction of...

When You Say Nothing At All
Sometimes words can flay a heart’s tissues
Inflict wounds that last a lifetime
Sear the mind with painful recollections
And make you just want to die
But then again, inconsequential words
Meaningless chit chat
To appease the conscience of the one...

Refugee From Debauchery
There was man named Garrison,
and he lived the good life,
flush with that big trust-fund money,
he hungered for the night,
for booze and bodies tight,
the finest clubs were his domain,
his bar tabs were truly insane,
his one-night stands...

Dynamic Reef Flexion Within the Restless Earth
Dynamic reef flexion within the restless Earth
Continental drift spelled birth
once spelled Pangaea,
in early geologic time,
a supercontinent that incorporated
almost all the landmasses on Earth.

Rainbow's Underbelly
Murky shadows slink around the darkened rainbow

As today Man’s testicles still hold the world hostage
and reveal the slow moving continuum slithering toward the world’s fate.
