What You Are, What You Mean To Me

What You Are, What You Mean To Me...

Oh Wife! You are my life, 
around which I spin my daily axis -
My work, dealings, obligations, routine is as a nexus,
Interacting connecting life with gratified emotional plexus...
You...

Green Hell



      


      As I fall into the buzzing altar of heavy 
metal shifting sand, maw, swirling sheets, 
illness drools plus plus halcyon?
drawn too many wrinkles...

Amelie Beth Harris Mcgeehan

Amélie Beth Harris -McGeehan

Acknowledgment of birthday gal,
whose invaluable priceless worth
exceeds more'n a bajillion dollars.  

First born of Boyce and Harriet
(both long since deceased,
albeit cremated whereby their ashes
- cremains scattered to the four winds)
in Paterson,...

Ravenous Eldritch Wrath a Collab With James Fraser

RAVENOUS ELDRITCH WRATH

The darkening skies in choir of wrath;
The wind brisk banging blows;
The withering of trees;
The falling twirling leaves;
The branches sudden irate tweak and split.

Giving way to the rushing threat of death
Will another candle die...

The darkening skies in choir of wrath;
The wind brisk banging blows;
The withering of trees;
The falling twirling leaves;
The branches sudden irate tweak and split.

Seasons of Haiku

From chaos to cosmos
From cosmos to Barbados
From Barbados to Cricket


Fifty odd years
CAT EEG Resurrection
An original me?


If you know
The fundamental difference
Between 1 and 2

First comes the moon
Second comes the yellow
Last come the clouds and bats

They move...

Christmas 2022

Christmas 2022  is fast approaching
Where has the year really gone
Well after two years of covid isolation
Boris resigned his prime minster position

He got us through brexit
And a pandemic  
This wasn't enough 
For government and...

September Day

September meets with warm embrace,
 quickening the harvest pace,
though looming autumn can't efface 
 what's left of summer's arid grace.

The linen hanging on the line 
 dances with the gust and shine,
while maypops heavy on...

But Jock bruised his willy
And now he feels silly
With todger strapped up in a truss

The Potion

First, you need to mix the potion.
You must read the instructions very carefully
You don’t want to be summoning up any old witch.
So make sure it’s the October manual.
Especially as we know what happened last year.

Weird Windows

I don't know what exactly attracted me to it
I don't know why or how it resonated within me

Something old and characterful, perhaps it saw an equal in me?

The lane is old and windy, the traction...

The Glass Temple

The glass temple stands at a frightening height
Beautiful crystal panes there was a breathtaking sight
Across the sacred meadows and through the glooming trees
There purched the Temple, above any of what a single eye sees

Crowned on...

At Least It Was Diverse, Part Ii

...I was working construction jobs,
there was a big job for the trains,
to replace an old viaduct
that shook in the wind and the rain.
The government gave money and
put strings on it, that’s what they do,
wanted to...

The Bridge of Canterbury

That bridge hanging precariously
  Across the threatening gulf
Was the only escape to mortality

CREATION, INNOVATION AND FIRST NATION

It was only 120 miles from our motel in New Hampshire to our Air B & B in Bangor’s front door
which means today we had a lot of time for new adventures to explore.

So we...

Adversity's Bridge

Moving shadows in the night
Revealed within my path,
Adversity's bridge looms ahead
Beckoning with wrath.

Girders loosed by rust and ruin
Beneath the shifting sands,
Cascading rapids scale the pier
To claim the ones it can.

Calamity waits for all that pass,
Forbidding...

The Balmy Month of August

The Balmy Month of August

During those dog days of summer’s dream-rest,
When crops robust in days, that are hottest.
I sought to find my love peacefully asleep,
Under the shady oak tree canopy.

Luscious gladiolus witnessed my jest,
When I...

Luna

Since it was Sunday in late December
the sun perched softly behind a dark
swirl - and the distant dust
turned the last ray from red to pink
well before the dainty fingers
of her small hands could count to...

I Am Sorry

I sit alone, miles apart from reality. 
Dreams swirling, clouding my days. 
I sit alone, trapped in a haze. 

She sits away, miles away from me. 
Is she dreaming, is she thinking of us?
She sits...

Direction

I hope you smile, when you remember me. 
Once a fleeting while, a thought of what could be. 
I don’t mind the pain, a dulling sense of being. 
Omnipotence to gain, yet a constant thought...

Love Song

The lights sparkle with gold,
The night showers the scene. 
We’re locked in an eternal hold,
A lovers spark so keen. 
We twist and turn to the tune,
The crowd focused on the movement. 
We’ll embark all too...

Ramble Around the Foundry

It’s been a day, brother, it’s been a day.
I’m ridiculous for lack of content,
All my plot holes are on display.
Am I doing OK? Am I having a day?
I can’t get a call back. I sat...

A Rattling Rhyme

Everything had gone well and the night was still young,
she had made her intentions quite clear,
home alone we're not walking, the drink was now talking,
and the score was one-nil to the beer.
So we flagged down...
