Concrete Hearts, the Deep End Keys and the Miniaturist's Poetry of Sleep
“Concrete Hearts, the Deep End Keys and the Miniaturist's Poetry of Sleep”
Following the Babel paths,
where footprints progress
like rough-hewn braille,
temptation shows itself well deep
to be turned and touched,
substantially labyrinth
The Open
is lead
further in, and...

The Uninviting Feeling
I'm not at all innocent...when you make
me hurt inside
I'm getting over you...but I'm not giving up
completely, though you are not present in
my life
It rips my high hopes into shreds of
worthlessness
I will...

Unlike natural humane organisms,
like toad
and squirrel
and goldfinch bodies and brains,
Spiritual humane organisms,
like toad
and squirrel
and goldfinch matters and minds,
remain unchanged

reception of them v us
as separate,
even laughably autonomous spirits
rather than One EarthTribe Holonic Laughing Spirit

Attachments and Aversions
I wonder if
what Buddhist classic meditation teachings
refer to as "attachments"
and "aversions,"
a Western medical doctor
might label with different words,
such as addiction
and dissociative diversions.
In both frames
negative illusions may be recognized
and appreciated
as deep opportunities to learn;
Negative delusions are...

GOING BACK

Loaded fruit trees from which apples could be casually filched,
Nor were there sparkling streams for pushing...

Dizzy Goodfellow's White Horse
He came from the Dust Bowl in a terrible time
When his family were stricken with broken, dirt covered dreams.
The patchwork wooden shack they slept and ate in had all but tumbled
To a fate no one...

Cardboard City
(Where the streets are full of pity)
Last night! I met an old boxer
in an alley of cardboard;
he seemed glad to see me,
shouted me over for a fight!
I told him!
“Hey I’m not in your league”
“Young man.”...

Red numbers burn 4:04 into the darkness. Moments later, they transform their identity and moan 5:16. Work begins in three hours and forty-four minutes; three hours and forty-three minutes.

My Misery
Inspiration nowadays seems
to have left or died
I feel lost and unsure,
as misery eats me from inside.
Everything around me
appears dull an uninviting
As if joy has departed
to see to its own liking

Epitaph
There lies inanimate a lady who lived within her character
Who I found so ugly when her heart was going pitter-patter;
Her character left no ornamental mark on earth as it was burlesque –
But that was quite...

Summer breeze on an upside down perspective
Warm waters in the blue distance
Clarity still no closer than when I first arrived
How can I feel filled with unbridled joy
But still feel hollow empty tears to cry?

What We Feel
...is what we see
Emotions are the weather of the mind
We live between peaks and troughs
The former breeds hubris with downfall built in
The latter deals with death,darkness and despair
Our mood colours our world,clouding our judgment
Darkening our...

My Pedicure
I make the appointment all excited
for my feet look like my dads, uninviting.
I anxiously wait until the day of my arrival,
expecting...who-ha’s...claps...and grins.
None of this sort grabs me, instead it is
pick out color...pick out color...and then...

Another Crossroad
Another crossroad.
Invalids weep when
wearing another's
soiled diapers suddenly
disappear.
In spite of the battered off-chance -
from a despondent interruption;
I'm the exposed exception.
Coarse fingers bleed.
My wheelchair spokes
are hardly friendly.
I proudly bawl when no one
can see...

Winter’s releasing us from its perpetually gray and gloomy grip.
Who can study in their room, on a beautiful spring afternoon?
Azaleas assail ya, with champagne petals of bubblegum fuchsias,
they blush in near neon reflection, with a...

Murky Future (Revised)
Could it be I’m using the wrong bait?

To attract and win the perfect mate
My heart stays open, intentions pure
Perhaps what I need is more “a-lure”
I cast my line; only...

People Judge By Outward Appearance But the Lord Looks At the Heart
