Clarity unless poets put a mask on.

The Penknob Kid
PENKNOB: Is our household word that my kids euphemistically created of the two phrases that I purposely refrained its actual pronunciation by slurring PENKNOB: Phrase #1. Hands-Off/or don't touch; #2. Shut-Up/or be quiet. My youngest...

Think Spring
Now, unlike my usually trenchant literary librettos, i regale the unknown (tum me) reader for savoir faire articulation, elocution, and indomitable tour de force proffered by spectrum of bounteous expropriated hegemony rightful to Mother Nature....

Dissolve the Ego

Trapped in flesh with mortal

Labelled with name, a social number,
Yet with sanctioned control

Stellar Songs
For centuries of ancient thought
cosmic harmonies have been sought
in the vast eternal motion
of the grand galactic ocean.
To some the twinkling sky inspires
poems about celestial choirs.
But if those serenades occur
it’s just as if they never were,
since...

Is It Art - the Critics On the Exhibition
The reviewers considered his latest exhibition:
They said it was cutting edge
They said it defies all perception
The exploration of the negative spaces challenges the mind
Some said mind blowing
Some said life changing
The still life quality was shattering

Yirdaki Rhapsody
Yirdaki rhapsody;
no passing fancy.
Breath-bullet;
spinning down its chamber of wood;
enchanting elixir, so very good.
Breathing sound-light;
how it bleeds, so right;
a healing vibration,
echoing sensation;
didgeridoo’ing brings cosmic elation!
Born in the woods of each tone,...

Allegra
Even the hollow reed voices across sand, dry plains,
startling lilt, notes we can remember.
We can forget. Forgetting is our salvation,
not reincarnation.
When memory is destroyed, we are spared
thorns, destiny.
No further life.
Peace be with you.
With...

Then cast me down again

Hearts Like Ours With Kofi Amed
Kofi Amed & Dominic Amozimi
Tonal shaded selfies behind open mural walls
We were but performers in art galleried halls
Between submissive embrace and crazy calls.
We danced our way into realms of falling roses.
On sullen floors of marble...

The Narcissist Who Saved Himself - Cynthia Howard - collaboration with Dilly Dally

What Do You Have To Teach Me Today
Lesson 1.
What do you have to teach me today?
For I have learned much from “teaching” my “children”.
Lesson 2.
I will not always give you what you want.

If steps walk circle, we paint them in chalk,

The True Artist
Not from some pedantic school of art,
Art is something straight from the heart.

Brings birth to artworks so very untrue.
