Blues Boating Home

Human history is difficult;
hard pressed,
discovering
and rediscovering,
connecting
and reconnecting feelings
about therapeutic needs
and sacred wants
for trauma-prevention peace
trust
joy

Through co-empathic singing passions
which may,
too often, 
feel stressful

Irritating
depressing
stormy
before unconditional win/win regard
for Self AND Other
reconnect,

Like EgoTheistic re-ligion
and EcoMatrimonial
indigenously multicultural
ecowomanist wisdom

Of Ego/EarthTribe mutual MeWe...

Versailles

In a phalanx of four: Peter, Lisa, Dave, and I, descended a waterfall of marble stairs - pilgrims to another time - as if we’d punched through a wormhole.

It’s a five-star bash at the palace...

Lifeboat the Hippo Appears

Part 3

They quickly learned... there was cause for concern
     As the lifeboat was barely afloat.
When the Atheist turned and swiftly discerned,
    "A large Hippo is swamping our boat."

Love's Last Heartbeat

In the moorlands of desires, 
I've forever sung choruses of
fertile faith, amidst the flock 
of bleeding birds, sprinkling
heartbeats on lush olive herbs, 
In the dream of retracing their 
scintillating season of beachy spring. 
'Hope' had...

A Little Ants Sword

Sam is a novice gardener who stamps on all ants
He doesn't like them near or crawling on his plants
Their Queen was angry and wanted revenge
For the ones that had fallen she wanted to avenge.

They planned...

It Is My Impression

I would just like to say
that it is my impression
that longer hair
and other flamboyant affectations
are male dominant immersions
from sadly dull camouflage
into the birthright
and left
of his trans-pangenderal sex.

And I would also like to say
that it is...

Calculations of grief take stock in the supermarket pavement
midnight streets first impression to the concrete placement
black recycled oil stains painting with wires tired and lazy
contained by the curves a labyrinth never ceasing to amaze me

My Prayers Never Cease Be

My soul at dawn  awake
A magic light into my heart breaks
Solitary whispers shivering in awe
Towards the Infinite my whole upraised
Allah is the greatest.
A frisson of wonderment swamping to the core
Powerless and unknowledgeable 
A humble...

Up In Arms


Another wave of voter vexation
is swamping the shutdown nation

To the left, 
the windpipes are hissing
To the right,
the windbags are dissing

And all of the kitchen cabinet aprons
got their middle fingers
pointing up     deaf...

Family Reunion


There is going to be a family reunion
Unlike the family of mankind has ever seen before
In a thousand million life cycles

Earth people will shout for joy
At the site of their brothers and sisters
Who have...

Torn

Caught in the middle with nowhere to go
Between two strong-willed women
Manipulators according to their wiles
Related to one by blood
The other by dint of wedlock
Which one has the greater pull
On the tide of his wracked emotions
The...

The Swamping Tide

When rent in sorrows I try to find
Another plane on which to set my mind
To distract it from the downward vibe
And thereby avoid the swamping tide

The swamping tide has no remorse
It will hold you if...

Eighty Four Voices

Last Moments of the Crew 
of the Ocean Ranger?

Eighty-four voices cried out in the night 
In the roar of the wind driven seas. 
Help us, we're drowning, this rig's going down 
And we'll miss Valentine's...

Earth's TidalRiver Day

Earth's tidal river day
on universal salvation display

This indigenously wise place
New England conventional space
ebbs without yesterday
flows within today

Building forest skills
industriously clear-cutting slack
of co-infested character

Puritan souls
submerging and swelling
wild native nakedness enslaved

Merged with dark
thick-skinning 
self-immolating 
magic aboriginal music...

The Deluge

THE DELUGE
 Placid waters sans piquant ripples
 Freaked out with furious,forceful  jerks
Reeking of rare reckless rumbling  rage
 Bloated brook  burst beyond banks, berserk

 Downhill town duped ,drenched, drowned and devoured

NEW LAIR

Lestat walked down the street muttering to himself, 
eying the tide mark faintly etched on the brickwork 
of his once glorious house. 
Damn! Katrina really did her job well swamping 
my food source. No...

He Mystery

Looking into my imaginations and soothe yourself
Because tomorrow I shall be ragging, storming, clashing, swamping and soaring
Pacifying nature’s commotion
Today, I am weak, pale, dry, and soak with emptiness and man’s abuse of my serenity
If you...

New Hope

Peace and contentment can feel, 
An endless frustration to find, 
When mixed emotions take over, 
Swamping the thoughts in your mind.

In a constant state of limbo, 
Stuck between fight or flight, 
Exhausted from the flashbacks,...

I Cannot Forget

I CANNOT FORGET

Forgetting is hard to do
When my mind constantly searches 
Its recesses for images of you 

I want to forget
But never will
I need to forget
But won’t willingly
I must forget
But that is unlikely 

My sanity...

Transformation

In our
faces.
Constantly,
in our
faces.
Glowing
screens.
Pumping,
pumping out
information 
constant
Information.
Inundating, 
swamping
the mind.
Washing over,
coursing through.
Minds smoothing,
ideas blending.
Minds altered,
losing 
individuality.
Cloud.
All spinning 
up,
up
into the
cloud.
Different, 
what returns
different 
not the same
not individual.
Old minds
filled with
yesterday 
fading away.
Old ways dying,
dying
with the old.
Soon,
transformation 
will be
complete!...
