The Wedding Picture
Mom and Dad's wedding picture
frames a glass-covered black and white frozen moment
with warm smiles
for invisible cameras.
He in his WWII uniform
of a first class private Republican
with recent patriotic death technology experience.
She in a white satin...

Ghosts of South Dakota Part 4
Of course on this night we are supposed to be asleep so Santa
could come, but we hadn't been home from Midnight Mass very long, and the
invigorating cold was not conducive to sleep. ...

Ted Bundy
He was young and attractive and quite debonair,
An upstanding young man who was going somewhere.
Or so it would seem if you knew not his history.
To we in the know he’s repulsive dark mystery.
When I...

Powerful Pens
The pen is greater than the sword or so it’s often said.
A poet’s word still stirs the heart long after he is dead.
The "Elegy" of Thomas Gray can still provoke a thought.
And Campbell’s "Ullin’s Daughter"...

To the Fallen of Covid 19
To all the fallen of Covid 19
whose deaths were unrecorded and unseen
To those who languished in intensive care
where Fear unmasked itself to mock each prayer
To mothers shedding tears from dawn till night

Poetic Ink
In my hand the ink drips,
commotional emotions at large,
patches has failed.
Nails and swords, pierce the hearing ear,
fussed drops of lethal dose,
push me to the edge,
for adrenaline chokes my conscience,...

Generations
Denial is a can of peas
whose contents
should never be indulged
beyond the expiration date.
Yet there I stood,
evidence screaming reality
at my eyes, their gaze steadfast
upon the wailing baby girl
before me in her bassinet.
My mind then...

She flew out of a lark's mouth,
she was high in a cloudless sky.
I had a telescope in my mind
and an old VHS video recorder
for my left eye,
my right eye
had already been blinded
by self-winding hummingbirds.
Her apparel...

The Philosopher's Lament - 4
[Continued from Part 3]
“As you say, o’er many kingdoms and proud lands the sun will reign,
Yet, in all, deceptive rulers Heaven’s leave and nod will claim.
They will bind their every subject to their taxes...

Counting Hawks
Counting perching hawks
trying to watch what they watch
while a speeding car
beneath tense feet
races to overtake whatever blocks
each sideways glance.
Fifty percent of all bird songs go unrecorded.
Multiplexed avian modulations leave us
questioning our own questions.
Pylons loop...

Undated Summer Children
An ancient unknown city in the west somewhere
Under the road it had a pipeline maze for water
How old the city people didn’t remember.
During a remote sweltering summer time
Before the start of debate on climate...

Quietus
Today is the day you show us your worth.
You recede,
you retract,
a retarded new birth.
This taking motion.
Your body paints on the canvas of its life,
an outpouring of you without control.
An abstract,
a schoolboy erraticism,
in colours not seen...

A Poet No More
The world's pace, unkept by a lagged mind
Advancement met only with reversion
Pursuit of yesterday, neglecting today
Failure promising, success fading
A summit of pride, crumbled to a plea.
Volumes shy away, to an audible stay
Pulses unsettled by...

Antediluvian
On site of this forgotten Babylon
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in this annihilated place
What strange creature’s kin
to inhuman race
Dwell deep in antediluvian hells
Uncanny things creep
and scurry in forgotten realms
where Poseidon reigns in...

Tidal Excire
Words captured in amber for all eternity—valued for their unique resilience as the tides of time cannot erode them. Our deeds like skipping stones on water sink in although they go unrecorded; the ripples soon...

Unrecorded Extinction - Cop26 Ii
She’s not as dramatic as a hurricane or forest fire
Just someone’s old mother
Arranging her daily dignity
In an unrefrigerated apartment
She’s got a cushion chair
An oxygen tank
A bed
Her toilet
Weather Channel on the TV
She’s survived past her friends

Mystery Tour
The guide with his cheesy hat, and colorful umbrella
encourages us to: gather 'round.
His anecdotal spiel is by rote,
his shtick fact-slim and slick,
but it’s also my current gestalt
as I am dragged unwillingly
along by his ‘cliff-notes’ speech.

Undeveloped
He assumed they were just not used
to the intricate mechanisms of a Browning Box camera.
Images of his young life never taken.
An undeveloped child, an unrecorded life.
At aged seven an awkward boy was caught
on an obligatory...

The Tasty Bits
Initially, I was convinced
that she barked madly at the moon,
enraged to find that tasty bit
of cheese was out of reach again,
diurnal pantomime played out,
quixotic tiltings of the mind,
quotidian, unfiltered thoughts
best left to unrecorded dreams.
But unbeknownst...

Lost Valley
There has to be a sudden sunlight
breaking the mist and clouds.
A shaft of dazzling brightness
that lifts the murk completely
off the landscape.
Conditions must be just so,
then there it is
you are looking down
from the high moors into...

Missing Time
Focused, concentrating
on some random
but persistent thought
riveted in ruminations
fixed on point and purpose,
ponderings deep and dark
in retrospective scrutiny;
Aged, antiquated,
