Long Uninhabitable Poems

Chernobyl.


A nuclear disaster, in the Russian town Chernobyl,
An odor-less killer, the invisible force.
As the radiation escapes, from the crumbling reactor,
We must cool it down, before it blows.


Evacuate Pripyat, the employee’s town,
The town of 35000; first...

Brains and guts orbit the soul—
that polar star searing in the marrow of being.

I was born somewhere between Einstein’s neurons
Ginsburg beat poetry, the birth of rock and roll, revolution marches,
and the calloused hands of a...

Note to God of Jealous Time:

Your human race exhausts ourselves
and our home
and our extended DNA/RNA family
and our soul-soil
and our blood-water flow of therapeutic life
and our healthy synergetic atmosphere.

What was angry memory 
and FearFilled imagery

Sinister glacial dissolution 
verging on huge jagged icebergs reverberate
nature mocking bird song sans bot mot, 
braggadocio, rodomontade, et cetera
distinct, ear splitting, 
and fractal heaving snap, crackle and pop, 
cacophonously fabulous, incredulously humongous, 
and thunderously voluminous...

at the beginning earth was a place uninhabitable 
to any living thing, it was nothing but a furiously 
burning wandering fireball in an immeasurable open space

while wandering in space, 
however, hit by the meteoric showers,...

Donald Trump Das Fuehrer's Braggadocio

Wrapped up in the Christmas holiday spirit,
I surmise doth allow
nationally collective obliviousness

Attorney General William
Barr black marker in hand
kept promise to censor vital
details of Mueller Report
swift as Usain Bolt candidly,
grandly, lustrously, roundly

youthfully blocked out more
rapid than an elegant eland
vibrantly, regally, magically,
and gracefully skirts borderland
which favored topography
constitutes grassland...

Alias indomitable invincible
Donald John Trump oozes wrath
inexorably plunging every species
of life toward apocalyptic warpath
mercilessly threatentens world
wide web promising bloodbath

validating ex post facto commander
in chief as nonpareil sociopath
hence... this call to arms gives run
for money challenging...

When sleep deserted me
I crawled out of my bed unseen
To delve into the crevices of the dark
With the curiosity of an explorer
And the near comatose of a somnambulist
I walked up and down the steep slopes...

Fridged temperatures bite at exposed skin,
Icy cold winds pull and tug on coats, looking for a way in.

Naked trees expose their frozen bark,
It has arrived and leaves a snowy mark.

Silence deafens the ear as nothing...

Sunshine undulates across verdant plain
casting dark shadows ushering twilight zone
ringing athwart tree trunks
invigorating, joyously kickstarting, 
and plenti revitalizing
bountiful nature buzzfeeding 

vim, vinegar  and spunk
caressing, massaging, and palpating with
soundlessness inducing bub bully giddy,
and sudsy spongy...

GHOSTLY  FOOT PRINTS

Ghostly soldiers echo past
Through snow-capped mountains
They must blast,
Through uninhabitable surroundings
Enabling them to weave,
Trying not to ever leave
Evidence of them been there,
Through, rugged dangerous 
Terrain, a path,
Marching toward an enemy
Full, of long felt...

aswirl within tremendous maelstroms
universal united uninhabitable cauldron
tempered with analogous:
outrageous, portentous
thunderous cacophony in tandem

with thick mucilaginous fog
metaphorically postpartum
nebulous placenta afterbirth
and/or proto planets aborted

per primordial material
slowly (millions of years) coalescence
annealed bubbling primeval soup
engendering (extant

In 100 years Mars will be an Earth-like clone
with a thick breathable, transformed atmosphere, rich in oxygen.
There will be clouds in the sky,
rain will fall again and the rivers will run.

Billions of years ago,
Earth had...

Like the days of invasive explorers, your plight commenced
You went explosive with yields of unrestrained wealth
Dishing out involuntarily, streams of the inflammable oil and gas
From your natural reservoir, they flowed relentlessly
Filling the insatiable pockets of...

In the most interior halls
Of grandfather, opa, Herr Uberlebende
His mind
Behind the film that shrouds his eyes
(Fading, opaque, impenetrable)
There is a gap between the rooms that line the dusted floors--
A hole between the satanic years
When worlds...

And God led Moses to Mount Nebo
for his lush, new domain to survey,
in the riches of the Promised Land
among valleys of trees and olives.

Where birds in the sky soared free

Catharsis of a King


Twisted trees, gnarled and warped
by wicked winds, curled in crippling
curling toward faint warming of the sun,
clinging with clutched roots to rocky crags,
overhanging the crashing roar of foam tipped
breakers.  Stone face of...

Island
If I were an island
Made by nature or by man
I wouldn’t feel alone at all
I would devise a plan
I’d slowly but most definitely
Proof I was smart and wise
For I would turn myself into
A most desirable...

A random road wanders across the desert
as voluminous clouds chase the rising sun 
nary a sound can be heard, save for the
whipping wind and clicks of insects. 

The yawning horizon stretches out
reaching towards a vast,...

Call it as it is!
Not mistaken.
Not uninformed –  
They just don't care! 
Death in record numbers
at our Southern Border;
Death in the streets
of large cities from 
Fentanyl...They just
don't care! Mask-less
getting her hair done;

We died in the night
Humanity’s quarrels
Caused by spite

The world
Seems to crumble
In our hands
The earth now seems like
An uninhabitable land

It seems like
Our happiness will end
And darkness will be rushing
Inside our hearts instead

When it seemed 
All was...
