PTSD

Like rabbit in the headlight caught
I want to move, i know I ought
But quicksand stuck, I’m petrified

From sweat in which my body’s cloaked
My eyes...

Is to infiltrate ALL Fluff Clusters in K.A.O.S. Headquarters
And bloody well steam it!”


“The Place is a hazardous mess of a trap
Over run with Double Agents, ulterior motives
Amorous...

"50 Words for Poe: Blue Skies"



She was dressed to kill
Hot like a blazing Australian Bushfire
She crackled with heat as she
sashayed through the entrance
like Summer towards him, 
Like she was painted in 
Gold Lame Mesh
Armour tight,...

Let Us Be Midwives!
by Hiroshima survivor Sadako Kurihara
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Midnight...

Of a distant land I ponder.
Of a country torn asunder.
Of Zimbabwe ne'er forgotten -
Where the life has turned so rotten.
Ah it tugs my heartstrings so -
This much loved land so full of woe.

There is an eagle flying
above a pure blue lake,
white head with a brown body,
and long feathers, proud and straight.
On its feet are long talons,

Pride is hubris run amok
To rot the soul within.

strange world 
where agony
and loathing

that smell of burning 
candy floss
and the putrid scent
of...

1. They said the meeting point
between your traits and swagger
has dislocated

Interpreting dreams, from the day or the night.
Chasing rainbows, it’s treasure foretold.

but this government MANDATE 
from Harris County is unnecessary, 
unconstitutional, and unAmerican. 

It’s an unprecedented overreach 
which looks more like a communist dictatorship 
than a free Republic. 

And here in Texas
We believe

And she whispers in your ear
There’s a special place built just for you
To misplace all your pain and fear
There’s a hole unlike any other
Infinitely deep
