Slicing & dicing the 
fabric of time.
Contorting & distorting 
functionality to reality.

My unique physique poetic 
swagger broadcasting
Elegance in resilience
Relevant to intelligence. 

Rewinding the two hands of time 
with a wicked new rhyme 
elements from the...

...Of course he had arranged it all
in a place where they’d find nothing,
the sports world mourned this ‘tragic death,’
police couldn’t find anything.

That opened up a murder spree,
though no one could see it as such,
he roamed...

The Cottonmouth King

I, The Cottonmouth King creep 
out from under my rock; 
I penetrate the depth of your soul 
Blood runs on damp streets 
claiming another life
Drama tastes of bitter swallows, 
escaping from guillotine’s wrath,...

It was just an ordinary maze of a day unlike so many others

An array of multitude hanging from intersections of fortune

Aberrations cul-de-sacs opposites shadows cautious anticipation

Tentative expectations inspiration expiration holding their breath

Again I wake in this wretched place
Where the devil glares with grimaced face
Reading my heart, stripping it bare
Savoring the scent of the secrets there
I'm slipping and sliding, the ice too thin
Carefully creeping, lest I fall...

Far behind the cactus that is shattered through the smoky snow
Lightening up from the last scorched sunrays 
It seems to grow the last mystic rose that is bouncing
And pinching among the brutal wind of this...

mother-made moments should be soft and squishy
not filled with terror or just plain icky

mother-made moments should comfort and soothe
not leave you feeling like you've been royally screwed
they are supposed to feel like super softie towels...

To WiseElders
in whatever age you may be found
headed even further North
and South
as each full year
revolving passes,

Our shared yet wounded WinLose Adolescent
remembers your WinWin childhood dreams
of adult songs and dances outside
together by day
and riding magic cumulus...

Purim Theorem!

Rambam holds Hashem is math,
Hashem does not take a path,
Like “Squaring the Circle”,
Such is illogical,
Yet the Zohar differs on Hashem’s craft!

Finite length & width yet zero volume,
Boggling...

a little sprinkle
from the pines-

little crinkles in the vines, 

what a pencil
drawing up signs,

nobody else could see have seen me at that time.


It was time for revolution,

people acting so fine,

but...

I was lukewarm, and you hated every breath
Nothing beneath me but my honor and my deeds
You were so torn between the heaven of desires 
And the earth of realities
The waves threw me from my feet

And...

ÀWÈRÓ


Àwèró, the only woman squaring my moon
Your beauty is priceless
Your character is just so perfect.

Àwèró, your lips are like lilies
Dropping sweet smelling myrrh

By the rivers of waters.

Àwèró, I...

Like a Waterford goblet
There are cuts all over me
Though not nearly as exquisite
I am etched with imperfection
Fill that chalice with the beverage of your choice
And it will pour out of all the holes 
I lose...

Perfection as a goal demands correction;
accepting mistakes requires some reflecting..
Call me a square if you like but I'll admit
when it comes to money, I keep short accounts.

Simplicity puts tender in the kitty;
humility builds reckoning, quality.

It was brilliance, shined by few, and far.
I held my head high until yes I am sane.

Come on, let’s make this circle square,
Poor as church mice, bolder than brass,
Circle right then show me the cash.

We'll keep it underneath your hat,
But there’s no room to...
