I.
I am sure there will be that profound moment in time
when the dog out back will stop its incessant yapping,
Its unrelenting impulse to belch out its interminable wails,
alas, to inform its...

Somewhere On Foot Part One
I peered deeply into a water trickling dyke clustered by pale blue and green peebles.
“Oh dear I sometimes dig too deep or maybe not diffidently.
Damon Deep thinker, lost in thought type.”
There is that mind...

Senior Trip To Fold With Honor
What was brewing?
A health care debate done for fooling
What bill?
Who has the medical skill?
Up there on the Hill
Are they still talking about the prescription pill?
Then the legal eagles read the will
Where I...

18 Short Poems
III.
diamond sky
climbing up into
the mountain,
collecting the
scattered spoils of
temptation; seeking
rest from raising
the green wood
roots of trees,
these broken kingdoms
will also perish, like
collections of antique skin
to be buried
in the garden
of wonder
(alongside the urns
containing...

THE ARCHITECTS OF LIES
They sowed chaos to claim their peace.
A few wars to realize their dreams.
They sell chains wrapped in freedom’s guise,
Spitting laws applied only to the weak.
They paint bombs in the colors of morality,
Parade mirages with a...

The Complaint Part 2
The pageantries of mighty kings to us were shows that mattered not,
Beneath the shade of blades unsheathed in Kalima we glory sought.
Our only life was then to face the perils of Your Holy wars;
To glorify...

My Dream Vacation
I've dreamed of something special for quite some time,
a vacation I've envisioned that would be simply sublime.
I'll be leaving from Miami on a round-the-world cruise
and I reserved a balcony room to enjoy the scenic views.
I'll...

The Goddess of Blessed Redemption
The Goddess Of Blessed Redemption
She gave me a foundation of love's pleasures
complete with wondrous bountiful measures
she a gentle goddess of golden hues,
swept this heart away, vanquished all its blues.
From a verdant forest spring she arrived

I shall bloom

And my love shall stay the same
Until I...

Catholic
Catholic
Stern but saintly Father Meissen
scolded the parents for not having
their baby boy baptized sooner.
It was April, 1952,
inside the stained-glassed catholic church,
ensconced on sun-split Newlin street,
avenue of pink oleanders and cracking sidewalks.
According...

Paradoxal Love
Sometimes I ask myself if
it would've been better
to have never loved
at all
For me it's the ins & outs
of the fall that are
really discouraging
The idea of purging this
emotion is freeing to the mind
yet I'm bound...

First let me start by saying “I AM A CLUTTER JUNKIE”
A clutter junkie collects things any and all things, things that are unimportant and often cheap
Things that have no purpose or meaning.

A Lifetime of Geraniums
Geraniums have always been my favorite flowering plant,
with their vibrant burst of colors with warm spicy fragrant scents.

Sitting on her sunny porch, her smile as bright...

The Morning of the Hurricanes Part 2
Continued from Part 1
The Beggars ’neath the balustrades,
and broken Children, Chambermaids,
are running wild from wraiths, afraid
of dreams where death redoubles.
They fritter time with tattered threads
(from ragged clothes they’ve left in shreds),
crocheting hoods to...

INSCRIPTION ON THE MONUMENT OF A NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.
When some proud son of man returns to earth,
Unknown to glory, but upheld by birth,
The sculptor’s art exhausts the pomp of woe,
And storied urns record who rest below;

The Endgame
The endgame
And the cemetery was
nowhere to be found
yet was so present

the graveyard of the mind
No tombstone unturned

sorrow flowing down
encrypted alleyways
and Thanatos’ call
Searching to imprint
coffin’s...

All Bottled Up

Bottlenecks are one thing driving down the road
Making one late for work is another
Cumbersome, slow and an all time low
Containers made from glass have their ups and downs
Mostly downs we’re told
Their poisons kill...
