Long Sputum Poems

I stood and cried in The Magazine Bus,
Deep in New Orleans, in the city rush, 
as it plowed and choked along
like a curved-back dinosaur
wheezing through the swampy ways, 
rattling electric wires in a maze
of strangling...

Ford score and...Chevy
five years ago,
my Model A strapping
handsome big bro,
(who sped like one
speeding Triumph font lee, crow),
wing, & swooping Thunderbird, with
bold face observers whistling Geronimo
(Holy Jeep), this meant war
whooping Comanche 

decked out as armadillo

Lungs like burnt paper—
folded too many times
by hands that forgot
how to be gentle.

Morning comes with wires.
He wears machines like
second lungs,
ghosts that sleep beside him
and hum.

Each breath is an audition.
He performs survival
on a stage made of...

Past psychological development
describes zigzagging mama's yoyo
casually, aye publicize, (asper
mein kampf) personal woe

unpleasant memories indelibly
etched, jagged, scar outlined like ticktacktoe
solitary games invariable resultant
draw between every “x” and each "o"

metaphorical of course for this poetic,
formerly non opportunistic

13/3/2012. 

Doleful lugubrious quests feverously churn within my mind,
To quell thirst of my hunted and sought cravings consigned.
Every night and every day they scald and scorch,
Thoughts charred smothering move in and fade away, akin a...

An expression of a Nurse

I am a Nurse,
I am loved by few and hated by many
Everyday I dedicate my life to saving lives of others
From 7 o'clock in the morning to 7 o'clock in the...

You
Sat wherever you were
Spotted me breathing
Saw how happy I was
Scowled with jealousy
Slipped sputum with furry
Sed with an evil plan
Slithered all over surfaces
Scattered yourself everywhere
Spanned from arid to airborne

Set up an ambush
Sauntered into my body
Swam...

This love is chaotic
My anxiety to feel your skin texture
Leads me to severe headache and fever,
My breath cutoff, 
And eyes turn red 
When ever I'm vulnerable to your presence,
Your love is a sweet virus,
Virus that...

Ghosts of Glory


They came to Auschwitz and Treblinka...
they tore down the walls that confined us.
How we wept with joy as the SS officers
were taken away - we spit in their path,
those of us still able...

Are they now here, the old golden days?
Are they still in mem, days well modeled?
A day I see now, those deeds weren’t
When what the story, I hear was starved

A day now what, a cock breaks...

My stomach rumbles after a hot meal,
I pack along the road to obey this call,
As I run into the bush, it rumbles still,
On bending down ‘bou~bou~bou’ its gases fall,
Sounding like a thunderous trumpet…,
Anus releases the...
