But I...

you climb, skittish kite...
What do you know of the world’s despair,
gliding in vast solitariness there,
so that all that remains is to
fall?
Only a...

Day, and Night
by Michael R. Burch
The moon exposes pockmarked scars of craters;
her visage, veiled by willows, palely looms.
And we who rise each day to grind a living,
dream each scented night of such perfumes
as drew...

Distances
by Michael R. Burch
There is a small cleanness about her,
as though she has always just been washed,
and there is a dull obedience to convention
in her accommodating slenderness
as she feints at her salad.
She...

The Endeavors of Lips

How sweet the endeavors of lips: to speak
of the heights of those pleasures which left us weak

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 11
In a sudden nodding shift,
I was lifted into the air by the hard wings of the Devil
His putrid stench waking me from what seemed all dream
And upon a balcony of singed vine and blackened soot,
He...

Humus Me My Vegetated Chokes Ingest
Humus me? My vegetated chokes ingest!

microscopic entity developed into

Guerrilla Tactics
Yang's guerrilla tactics
explode my two way mirror,
unveiling camouflage Yin's indigenous strategies.
Messianic Yang fascinations
uncover Yin's mutual mentoring solidarity,
salvific yeast transmorphing light's power
into wriggling heated function,
fertilizing Her benign wet redeemer
hospitality.
Positive forceful forms of Yang
double bound convex...

Little Lip Worm
A little worm about three inches long
Hairy, weak thing not very strong
Five meters would be an all day trip
For the worm moved by pulling itself along just by its top lip

She Wore Pineapple Rings For Glasses
She wore pineapple rings for glasses
and walked like jelly dances
I didn't rate her chances
She used to wee standing up
she cooked lemon a'la duck
won the lottery, grumbled what bad luck
like a surgical nip, without the tuck.

a bird and a boy -
one day as a boy, I went down to the sea
clambered o'er rocks way out to the bluff

Memories May 2000
Childhood memories,making camps upon the moors
wriggling through the bracken deep,
Making paths to our secret den.
Climbing trees,and falling too!
Moss on stones, glistening sun on stepping stones,
Swimming in the river...with a shiver.
Roly poly down the hill,...
