Long Yelping Poems

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.

Cooped within ancient bodies, this inhabitant

in dresses traditional or new.
But I was married wearing...

I stood and cried in The Magazine Bus,
Deep in New Orleans, in the city rush,

We can’t go out so what to do?
How do we spend our time?
Imagination, racing thoughts
My brain on overtime.

There’s gardening, painting, DIY
Non urgent jobs to do,
They’re boring and predictable,
I need stimulus, tried and true.

Lascivious Friends Amends

Coincidence, simultaneity, with a pinch of merriment
And convergence of moments, opened up this gate to hell
