Anticipation of Reality
So cramped ...
Strain to move,
Flex and budge in tiny increments ...
That's the limit.
Constantly testing, trying,
Pushing, pressing ...
Constrict, exert, constrict, struggle,
Spin slowly, push ...
That's it. That's all.
Nothing more.
But it helps ... relief,
A body sigh ...
But only...

Seventeen Hours
Uncover
I have uncovered something of importance
Well importance of me
I admit
my attention has been shared
my attention has been stolen, distracted
but my public
you already know the details

you already know the stories
yet I call you here...

Mommy
MOMMY
OF WHAT ARE WE MADE INSIDE US
Well my dear Ruth
We are made up of protons,
And Neutrons,
And of course Atoms,
And Molecules.
But isn’t this conversation
A little premature
For you’re
Far too young,
But let me continue,
We have bones,
And tendons
And...

Metrical Tale
On the Mountain
There gathered some undaunted faithfuls
Yelling with desperacy without moderacy
Screaming to be heard by the Son of Man
Not satisfied until they hear from the
The Son of Mary the wife of a Joseph
Hundreds of unwavering...

It Begins With a Haunting
a ghost haunts the country of Laos
sieving through jungles
crackling twigs because
it has not yet died
beware of it
the one who drags one foot
while the other rots 20 feet away
shoes made of cast metal
footprints ever so present

Anatomy of a healer's heart
There's a beat to the pulse beneath the skin,
how I stride through these corridors
with measured paces, memorizing the contours of muscles and bones,
carving roads into my head
as I inscribe them on the pages of a...

Restore Life 1
Why do you stand to stare, old man,
Over these fields of grass,
It must be a terrible boring time,
There's nothing here to see.
No, nothing now, but I look with inward eye,
For twenty thousand years did pass
Since...

The Court of the Twisted Dead
In the court of the Queen,
With her eyes to the ground,
Who is shrouded in darkness
And silence profound
With her skeletal hands,
Wrapped in gossamer skin,
Rest on smoothed out mahogany,
And gleam through the dim.
There is nothing to...

Tired Battle Cry
Like a prisoner caught in a cage, wires and strangers
People quietly watching from windows at people on the grasses
Silence in the golden skies while people walk their dogs
My dogs getting pushy, demanding nipping at my...

Panic
Panic
At a young age I was given eyes to see something I could not comprehend.
Given ears to hear things unbelievable. Unimaginable.

Into the Woods
I stand neck-high tall
within the quicksand
of my infirmities.
Green and gaunt,
I hesitantly genuflect.
Ravaged tendons and corpuscles
are barely breathing
within the vacant corridors
of a soiled carcass.
My ardor for vindication
has been abandoned.
I presently refrain from accepting
the consultation of
umbrous...

Restart
Sometimes I sit by myself and I think of our past
Having no idea then - that this long it would even last
In 2015 you showed me a fake side of you
We knew from the beginning...
