The possession of a mad man is the only terror
It started soft and slowly With only shallow things An itch or twitch or swallow But kindly not from me The walls would twist and turn at night And I’d be seeing things A pillow to hold a choir within And slowly simple things Would do more then make me mourn myself Do more then make me bleed My chest was heaving rocks and smoke Thrumming...

I always had Angie Under My Thumb, one day I heard her honking her car horn. What had she just done with her anger, my candy apple red vette she did Paint It Black. She was yelling back at me, You Can't Always Get What You Want. Now I will Tumblin Dice for release, my new car is a big mess. Her blue...

Mad at Kraut's
After the matinee war movie, we were hyped, we weaved through small town streets dodging imagined Luger waving krauts, returning fire with machine gun fingers. Roger said his granny was Bavarian and got mad at me when I said they were all bastards. Roger’s mother told him that he was great looking, that got me mad, my mom never had, and Roger’s mother was hot. The talk...

Premium Member We are witnesses to the final act of a mad and incendiary project
We are witnesses to the final act of a mad and incendiary project, an experiment of a world bound by invisible and shining wires, the reckless belief that we can always be connected, always alight, that electric power, like a river of light, can flow unceasingly for eight billion souls dreaming under the same dark sky. I imagine how each...

What is "L"ife all about, many times I get so mad. Should "I" have a doubt, it can be both good and bad? Will life turn out right, even if we make peace and do not "F"ight? Could the answer be Love, making it from up above? Is it up to you and me, "E"veryone working together is the magic key....

Premium Member Mad Dog
It was grandma’s last winter. I watched her hurry outside to split enough wood so her old kitchen stove would burn through the new storm she felt gathering along the horizon, its first eiderdown already afloat on the twilight settling over her white garden. From nowhere a dog tormented by visions plunged through the drifts and laid ahold of her leg. She hacked half through its neck and crawled...

I often think In darker times It's pointless toil Creating rhymes For what do rhymes Achieve, and such? Perfection strives For words to clutch Some faint idea Some headlocked chat - It smiles, then fades Like Cheshire Cat Chasing thought Down rabbit hole Succeed or fail No heads will roll From bitter world To jammy tart Where sweetness lives In printed heart No grumpy queen No neckline threats Beguiling words This soul begets Perhaps, in time Simplistic notion Can be transformed...

Premium Member In the palm of the universe, only the mad ones dare to tread
In the palm of the universe, only the mad ones dare to tread, Mad to live, to speak, to be saved from the relentless currents of time, Craving everything at once, like a blazing sun at its zenith, They never yawn, nor utter the mundane, but burn with the brilliance of fallen stars, Like fabulous yellow roman candles bursting...

Premium Member Mutually Assured Distruction
Mutually Assured Destruction Air-raid drills in the hallway, air-raid shelters in the backyard, neither would have worked. If us and the Russians would have gotten MAD at each other the Cold War would have been toast. In 1990 with détente, no one would get MAD or so we thought. Perhaps the Russians will get MAD at the Ukranians. The Ukraine gave up its nukes, so perhaps...
