Ground Level Entry
"Ground Level Entry"

thrown at it
no higher...

Split Schizoid Mission
split schizoid mission
Lifting the mind
like a sword
counting poets
losing self in
unsettled love
and mysteries
plucked off the shelf
all the Berlin walls
come tumbling down
words like dice
shaken and thrown
the electric
black dogs barking

the scarecrows tonight, my love? Whose catch was it anyway? Yours or mine? We invited 10

The Shadows Following Apparitions
like shadows they follow us
they tell their stories
on pages
that may or may not
be seen, or read,
we a'muse them -
"we", of course, are truly inconsequential
in the greater scheme of things;
they are like ghosts

The Wolf's Pockets
“The Wolf’s Pockets”
Virginia knows
what’s written
in the mass of a rock
the heaviness of words
not soluble
anchored to life
that does not float
A Wolf swallows Woolf whole
Hungry for something -
“other than” ;
Submerged,

I Relished Being Hungry For Leftover Thanksgiving Pop Slop Gloppy Grub First Helping
Hmm... on second thought
lemme join anorexic club

Blue bleeds

Discontent
They said, "you look cute"
I smiled and remained mute
But, Did that really make me smile?

"Some Different Kind of Lost Heaven"

Lento
The Espresso Salon
He’s behind the bar,
polishing glasses
like they’re his last remaining purpose.
“I know things!” he insists.
“I watch Question Time!
I once bought quinoa by accident!”

Tries to explain The Bell Jar

Impromptu is more his thing
