The Pied Piper From New York City - Part One
The Pied Piper from New York City – Part One

Favorite Recurring Nightmares Part 1
Don't you think that this title is darkly divine?
But, of course, there will have to be weirdness that’s funny,
Though my nightmares are many and have complex arcs
There’s some risk here I might have to work...

Beauty and the Beast
Here rests the realm of the
thorn-tongued truth ~
a mortal mirage of doomed pentacles,
where forks and kettles speak
the language of witchery,
the dialects of the diabolical,
listening as feral desires fill
the aquatic hues...

Crazy NaughtiMess
Crazy
that you can listen
to glistening gospel ministers
missing Messiah's GoodNews non-sinister
transNazarene re-sistering
whole Earth uniting salvation
Crazy
Jewish lay teacher
and EarthNatured mentor
not repeating or repelling
a most imperative Torah command
to obey God's Ten Demandments,
instead loving here I AM

Billy Jimsonweed and the Magic Icicle
It never melted for starters
but then you have to start somewhere
the Magic Icicle could talk
it had humors jealousies aversions
deep rending tides of love
and week long fits of giggling
It had been crafted by Father Frost
The Emperor...

Existence
between new nightmares
and day dreams
of a better life
lay reality resurfaced
tight with taut brutality
unspeakable thoughts drift
down through time's flash
triggered not there
not then
but now and here
her mind digs through fear
as she sinks
slight form down
crisp skirt's rustle...

Jade Oinkment
The sow beauty queen’s
favorite color is money green
The cloven jaw cutie’s
favorite sound is “cha-ching”
Miss Piggy Lips loves how the cash registers
throughout the land constantly rings
That jade oinkment noise
is a pigmentary salve to her greedy...

The Ever Changing, Sands of Time
You came to be the rain
I was always yearning for
scratching at my surface
until I bleed no more
I remember sailing once
on a cloud around your essence
how peacefulness crept over me
every time you bless my presence

Skin I'M In Part One
Tough skinned -strong, take it and dish it out.
Thin skinned - overly sensitive.
Skin of our teeth -
struggle for life, survival.
Skin defines and designs us,
the skin we’re in, through pain,...

Wait, What
It's a melodrama. Try to picture the drama queen
A bit actress lying on the floor in her final scene
Her lips trembling, tears running down her face
ruining her makeup in a gown of satin and lace

Veterans Breakfast Meet
There‘ll be black humour today,
Gentle ribbing, banter and jokes,
Stripping away of egos, repartee
Among our mixed group of folks.
Bruising conversations maybe,
But in a non malicious way.
No place for the thin skinned
That’s just not how we...

A Rabbit Named Bunny
Dogs dogmatically guard the home
Sounding the alarm with a growling bark
As owners are alerted to the threat
Miscreants flee into the dark
Cats are categorically useful too
Their mouse-tracking skills renowned
When a feline is prowling on patrol
Rodents scurry...

Jesus Shows Off His Wounds
Known as Jesús he was.
Known to be abnormally alive.
A gregarious thinly woven figure
in any overly large space.
The city contained him
kept him buzzing under its glass eyelids.
He said he had Jesus wounds.
Would lift up his T,...

Like a Broken Teacup
Sitting on the shelf like a broken teacup
I go on despite these difficult moments
I run into myself with Irish green eyes and permanent tear stained cheeks
I've endured the immensity of agony
I’ve turned down all those...

A Class of Its' Own
A class of its' own
I sit deep in the shadows, watching and listening.
Worn shoes silently shuffle ,
walking sticks, black frames,
chairs with wheels, pushed or driven,
converge on the High Street café,
a playground for the elderly perhaps.

Soupercilious
My Favorite Things comes to mind...
a random assortment, a jumble of words
a quotient of portions, quotidian served
quixotic strivings of the great deca-dense
obscured in meaning, eschewing all sense
visions and nightmares and hallucinations
erudite arguments, odd fascinations
old geezers...

The Same Window
She sinks into her threadbare cushion
on the aged-old rocker she huddles in daily
placing her thin-skinned arms
cold to the touch upon the arm rail
darkened from the oil of her skin
Creaks and moans play a tedious rhythmic...

Sincere Suggestions
I have wondered what Poetry Soup would be like
If poems submitted were subject to critical eyes
And contributors were free to critique the poems,
To say how they really feel about a poem, to analyze.
Of course, it...

How Do You Feel
short circuited and
the fuse of purpose keeps tripping
high voltage boredom
on auto pilot in slow motion
the roundabout is not a funny circus
currents alternate
directly challenge
polar opposition in contradiction of truth

Ballerina On Yellow Balloon
On the yellow balloon
The one that goes up
A red dressed girl tip toes daintily
Floats on the rubbery surface
Dances on the head of a pin
Helium never felt so good
Bare footed balanced on top
The world below is...
