Long Unfaithfully Poems

You've heard that self-unfulfilling prophecy?

it's just uppity and/or snooty people I can't stand

I love cooperative humanity--
it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.

Not so distant from,
I...

I understand that you’re mad at me
I understand that you’re sad, I see
I didn’t mean to cause you pain
I just want to send you sunshine your way,
But it turned into rain
Every time you smile, I...

I was a highly competitive,
and chronically frustrated,
public and private sector grant writer
before I turned to this prose-poetry research format,
inspired by reading Buckminster Fuller's universal Left Hemisphere
synergetic with, and never dissonant against,
his Right Hemisphere's unitarian-holistic flow

Worried about the past reoccurring
Worried about the future, not that reassuring
Why does it burn so immensely?
Why does it hurt so lamentably?

Obviously, you don’t truly understand
Apparently, you don’t see where I stand
You don’t care and watch...

Starfire.


Flying through space with a smile on my face,
With no need to replace memories of forgotten days.
Crawling along the edges of a song, newly born;
With the innocence gone, I burn like the sun.


Starlight burns through...

NOT NOW

NOT NOW, NOT AT THE MOMENT, AND UNFORTUNATELY NOT TODAY
THOSE ARE HARSH WORDS I MUST ADMIT BUT

Maureen:
I see stars in your cloudless eyes,
If you didn’t care,
Then why’d you cry?
You believed so strong,
That we went wrong
The proof is in your touch

Terry:
You were so young when I saw your face,
We lit a match...

I once
dreamed a dream
about four blossoming roses.

As footprints trampled upon silent snow

one died from a chilling childhood,
frozen within dark chambers of the mind.
Aspirations disappeared with migrating nightingales.

As robins built their nests.

Jaded, one died from wondering...

Father I come to you with broken tooth;
My tongue has lied has not spoken truth;
And mother please gather around;
Whisk, wish, wash my mouth today;
Grandma teach me how to pray;
And brother when you're in doubt;
Come find...

Two thousand Abib nights of Passover hope reviving
seems like it was only yesterday
The eclipse empire years,
once darkly spread
across the celestial canopy,
have faded into post-mortem obscurity

Beyond the cursed time,
when the fallen stars
guided us to the grave...

Time after
When the digging went deep after all the says became nonsense,
They thought the sailing rows offshore and stopped close to the nuance bank.
It was an untold surprise they imagined how it itched their mind

You are leading a double life
I found out that you have a wife
The pain cuts deeply like a knife
Thank you for the emotional strife
You didn’t have to lie to me
Living your life unfaithfully
You have hurt...
