The images like bubbling, darkest jam,
With bubble like grim faces riding to the surface
Then bursting.

Not So Dear
Dear exam
Sincerely I don’t hate you, I just don’t like you
To be fair, I don’t think anybody does

A series of poison in carefully measured dosage
Administered by well-trained...

Universal Consciousness
I think we should have a

A universal energy release to
cure Mother Earth

private parts
With drilling machines,
bombs and nuclear waste
And leave her on heat
Dissatisfied
Unloved
We leave her oozing with
acidic rain and...

Consultation Room
Consultation Room
Our organs we disdain
Until we have some pain
Then begin to learn
Let organs respect earn!
There’s this red “bean”
Fond of giving a spleen
Pith can suffer “cones”
They call kidney stones.
Maligned cirrhotic livers
Afflict with painful fevers
You may relish...

Before we met
My mind was set
On a female pet
As I sat on the ground
Among roughhousing puppies all around
Hoping that I would be found
Soon, I noticed, off to the side
Staring at me with dark...

Bone In Her Back

Why I'M Alive
First started with an attention disorder.
Then the medication started...and escalated.
Fixed my behavior, but not my grade.
It wasn't good enough for them.

Main Drag Pubs
Weekly this sorry procession
rolls out a parade of wannabe
kings and queens,
heirs unapparent to the realms of nothingness.
Girls with elaborate hairdos,
boys drenched in cheap cologne;
drawn to the main drag pubs,
solitary ventilators of the monochrome kingdom.
Factory gates...

Go Night Night
Our dog, Lucky, died on a Thursday.
I decided I could be sad for years,
for months, for a week, or for hours.
So what would alleviate this utter despair
and sadness?
A new dog, of course.

Near-Death Experience
NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE
Imagine open heart surgery,
imagine no blood used.
Triple bypass, just beginning,
blood later … still refused.
Previous surgeries had several,

Thanks for the mood this world put me in.
Thanks for the wars, the corruption, and sin.
