When You Wear a Dirty Shirt
When you wear a dirty shirt,
You're a book getting judged by its cover.

Or that you have a menial job.
Or that you're all three of those,
And then they throw in...

Soon
Soon is the time when blankets will be tucked under chins
moonlight will wash over frosted trees.
the clinking sound of empty milk bottles
early in the pre-dawn air as life begins to stir from slumber
moving into day.

Trot Lines
4:00 AM time to check the trot-lines.

We would string the lines from cypress trees across a channel
And mark them with fluorescent tape so we knew which...

Breaking Down Barriers
It is no small act that follows
no leaps nor bounds
as we are bound
the square, white-washed walls
crumbling, no doors, no sound
but who are we
are we not what one perceives
stuck to our one room box
we break...

Venus Courts Mars On Valentine's Day
A single red, heart-shaped balloon isn’t enough
So I splurge and buy fourteen adorned by cupid
I tie them to the chair of my beloved “Hot Stuff”
To think mere balloons might please him would be stupid
So I...

When does human consciousness begin?

Oh, these years haunt me still
like these ice cold tears...
The seconds pass by so slowly
like rain drops scrolling down car door window
The glass I look through
I can only ask it to bring me back to...

The Girl I Love
It seems so long that I must look
Among most girls, their attraction lures
But with this sight my angst does unhook
And my eyes do end their tours
The unpolished cover of your book
To suddenly turn...

Routes New
My shoes long worn out now got torn,
Within it rough, rude pebbles meet;
Pricking, poking in some stern tone
Knit-bit of my venturing feet …
Needle-like long pin-pointed thorns,
Pierced my now-dirty, ripped outfit;
Prodding every nerve, muscle, bones,
Thus tempting...

Don'T Unhook From the Iss
Star-pod, Ashanti, all aboard ya'll!
We're penetrating space-time's inpenatratable wall
Floating & flying through space-time atmosphere
Where the unknown is crystal-clear
So all aboard, ya'll, it's the 2nd call to see
The mysteriously darkened space-time!
Come aboard, Ashanti, come see the...

This leopard is the beast of the east
He is so swift with clappers and claws
Claws that joy in breaking jaws
In or out of the many land laws

Bear on the Shelf
There once was a bear
Who was loved for his shoes
To a girl he was gifted
Just her cuddly muse
On a once rainy day
With a shelter required
The brolly was shaken
To it's cover retired
Then a browse through...

We need to make a statement and make it loud and clear
Leave rigs double parked in every town
Come on truckers. Shut it down
Block the highways. Set...

Lungs On Fire
Lungs on Fire
By Kevin Robey
June 18, 2013
My lungs don’t fill
They suffocate
Relax, sit still
My mind debates
Forget this all
I will not stay
So will you call,
For one more day?
This tortured soul
Will not rewind
To times I...

Undergrowth with Two Figures-Von Gogh
Two figures laughing in the tangible woodlands
just as they were the young teens during first visit
enjoying the walk through the vegetation to look
for the spot they deemed sacred for themselves

Thank You Miss Maddy
THANK YOU MISS MADDY
Maddy baked some cookies,
She shared a few with us.
When we took a little taste
We got a full flavor rush.
For hidden in those cookies
Buried away down deep
We found some flavor chips

That's Sexy
When you want to get me in the mood
You strip down to just your boxer shorts
Tell me that I look so hot tonight
Then strike poses of various sorts.
Sometimes I could almost laugh out loud

Random Pursuits
Deft entanglements are sailing by,
some firmly rooted-
others like whispers in the wind.
Overshadowed by some thing more desperate than your needs;
We walk unhurriedly throughout the busy city streets.
Anxious to compensate your losses-
you stumble...

Tails and tails of red bending through the breathing stone as I inch closer to the labour camp,
Closer and closer to...

Autumn
The nascent sun warmth appears to emanate
The spiritual worlds charm of confidence state.
A breath whisper thrives a frail blossom;
Reclaim its exhalation colour delight-some.
A small, huff, whirlwind uplifts, swirling,
Pinwheel of fallen autumn leaves, ebbing,
Passionate rant ease,...

Santa Is Sick
The year without Santa has a special twist,
He caught a cold from giving a kiss.
He coughed and sneezed,
Cussed his runny nose,
He put on wool socks to warm his cold toes.
He lied in bed coughing and...
