Beyond the Rim
The universe got smaller as my mind expanded out The limits of imagination endless in redoubt Each flash the moment changes passing light that rushes in The cosmos but a blinking eye —when out beyond the rim (Dreamsleep: September, 2023)...

Premium Member The River of Rim
forever we talk on the river of rim cutting its banks under smothered stars and a muted moon it gushes through fallen giants whose dead limbs gather homeless crows waiting for the sun... ...for tomorrow for someone kind enough to care for crows for starlings for all less than pretty things all unappreciated unloved and misunderstood even me when I don't honor this "thing" I try not to believe you open...

North Rim
Grand Canyon darkness—city nights, towering votives in wingless flight Elevator to the desperate peak, ninety-nine floors above the waiting street Torment and doubt ride to the top, buttons numeric finally stop Ten steps to the railing, writhing in pain, the cure within reach—calling your name (225 West 57thSt, New York: June, 2022)...

Premium Member Of Freedoms Rim
They would have all of our thoughts align in eclipse of the truth blot from our eyes cold tears not shed at reasons death No more the fiendish touch of tempting speech to challenge questions asked and why Nor does the hand of wonder dare reach to touch for fear it might enrage the gods they praise Thus do the lemmings march to chanted hymn along the darkened edge of...

Beyond the Rim
Is identity a reference to all that I’m not or something else again Is what I’m becoming and what I am in contrast clearly plain Or then is it more and crossing over to what I’ve not yet been The border amorphous where gravity pulls —to dance beyond the rim (Rosemont Pennsylvania: February, 2021)...

Maxed Out On the Rim of Time: Imitation Poem of Off-Season At the Edge of the World By Debora Gregor
We have sprinted on our paws from silver fields into the ashen corridors of Office-Max How early we set our alarms, how grown up, who don the coats of men, despite the heat, who drive on four wheels down Park Avenue pasts the willing lemonade stands, boarded shops giving way to digital malls which we shop on our palms during afternoon break Darkness is closing...

Premium Member A Zebra Might Rim Ram Roo
Assuring a zig-zagging zebra a zinc zim-bam-boo without cash, is so brash! As then you will have to give two. Insuring a zoo master a zebra might rim-ram-roo Practically tantamount to mashing a crashing bamboo. As if you need any more trouble, my quim-quam-quaroo. On your dash I shall lash a mashed mangled measly mad macaroo. A sillier more gnashy...

Rattling Rim Shot
So you took your best shot, but sadly it rimmed out Rocket swish arc reached for the brightest star ... only to receive a missed blastoff launch tipoff Got time zone sent head fake crash landing to the parquet floor ocean bottom Love is a heart rattling thing ... net elusive,...

Family Rim, Stream and Team
Senior citizens Crated in old people’s homes Discarded denizens Wrinkled forms Pivotal during heyday Generating national growth Beyond payday Bestowing cloth On backs of offspring Pouring sweat day and night Zip in their gait and spring Delight and sunlight In hearts of extended families Fountains of love and generosity Inspiration for hallowed homilies Wellspring of wisdom in the city Senior citizens houses built From scratch Committed to the hilt From a rural hut...
