When It Rains

*WHEN IT RAINS*

When ponderous rain slap earth like rocket
We envelope ourselves into big blanket
But others lie on the floor without jacket
With water rolling from the roof into their bucket
There they lie close to their wastebasket

Everybody...

This Bandaged Broken Heart That Bleeds Out Pain.

A bandaged broken heart heaps more agony upon emotions and hurt feelings
carelessly tossed away in a wastebasket of ignorance and ill willed 
stubborness...

In a Pink-Walled Room

I can’t even call it a room
Old mattress, no bed lamp, and fluffy pillows
Just a cabinet full of didactic books on the top shell
Some enjoyable comic books and dull novels on the middle
And DVD collections...

Nerve slicing mercury inhabiting breast milk, slashing 
the suckling babe, the one who will not walk until she is four 
and endure unexplainable pain. Gold piles up, red tag special 
on weapons...

Root Canal

The Paying (I wish) Public marvels
at what comes out: those explosive, star-spangled
phrases and melodies (the few times I get it right);
but what of the great-real that went in, the life-struggles, 
the tears, the soul-smothering isolation...

Frozen In the Snow

FROZEN in the snow, 
she was running with nowhere to hide,
        Mental illness took its toll, 
for there was no one to confide.

A lonely lamb lost in

A blank page on the word processor I ought to leave it this way

I ain't normal, not even close
not even as a child, played with dolls
and paper cut-outs but I always decapitated

Off the Shelf

came into the store
and took us off the shelf,
they threw their money down,

Le Vacance Pretentieuse: Your Favourite Tv Programmes, Now Even Less Understandable

Gargling, a gargoyle’s groan gulps
From the bilingual blackness of TV,
A clockwork advertisement pulps
