Visit To Antietam

Alone I arrive, walking from Frederick
over the gaps, across gentle hills
out onto a knoll
overlooking this burnished landscape.
Before me I see countless writhing rows
of indiscernible shapes gathered
in terrible rituals mid fire and smoke
darkening the sun.
From distant...

Philosophy of Integrity

Is also a metaphysics of integral co-relationships,
which would make an even worse title
for drawing you into
our shared land of bicameral consciousness.

Philosophy of scientific method
could also become
Philosophy of Beauty and Humanity,

You never know
this negative bipolarity
could turn...

Motherearth's Resilience

So, Mother, where do you get all your creative ideas?

Outside, of course.
I'm not known as MotherNature for nothing
after all Earth's regeneration
is too often said
and too seldom done
with unconditional regard
for our Green Vegetation Tribes.

OK, that almost...

Contempt Has a Name

I stand naked wrapped only in the truth
you vile, loathsome reptile.
My contempt of you is limitless
as I have been force-fed your hypocrisy.
Your postulations are lost on me
as my insight into your repulsive nature
is exceeded only...

Harmony 69 1st Movement

HARMONY 69
The night of twelfth December `69  
knotted together an icy storm wind 
that whipped False bay`s waves 
to white -frilled blankets.
Thunderclaps against primal rocks
resonated through a ghettoe of glowing tents
on a dark, rough...

Sunrise Over Sodom

A steel sky, wan and dull, littered
	With ragged clouds and
		bitter dregs of a world girding for
	Sleep
		But no rest
by day, draws a frame over grim roofs and vapid doorways.
Indolent breezes rustle debris past shuffling feet of
	Staggering...

Oddest Little Bird

It arrived yesterday, manifested gradual and absurd,
started with the surrounding area dying first,
then the original picture of a missing itty bitty bird,
levitating and unmovable.

More people went missing as the days converge,
sure enough a new snapshot...

Tomorrow will be too late

Employing absolute freedom innate,
as the subject, the object and the means
the triad of energies shapes our fate,
with the light of Self veiled behind five screens,
the densest being our organic form,
God’s vital life breath enlivening dust,
entwined...

The Moon-In-The-Man Waxes Lyrical With Nary a Word

Kenny is suddenly,
 Luminously, animated;
with a grin that could crack a safe!
He whistles to get your attention,
then beckons you over
to the parted curtains.

He has something 
to share with you.
This is not the usual,
insular, 
self-absorbed Kenny.

No Win No Fee Ii

The sharp suited man
With the Legal Degree
Looks back over years 
To pass judgement on me.
While he was getting drunk
In student Uni bars
I was uniformed and fighting
Our country’s various wars.

The greatest impulse
Is the will to survive

A Misconstrued Secret

What use is a secret if it’s existence is unknown?

Why struggle to keep it if none strives to see it told?

A secret draws its power from the populace it eludes,

So, let me tell a tale...
