Hell ya I 
Want to
Mask desires
And I guess
It’s called
Playing a game
Will you ever
Reach down 
And find 
My love

Epigram #68:  

OXYMORON


A thousand words align,
Not a pun or wit can sign.

warm sun
peeking through clouds
happy faces
-----
green fields
wheat swaying 
motion sickness
----
fir tree
pine cone cluster
squirrels gather

Dinheiro

Descobri
em 68 anos
que dinheiro
é igual a sapato.

Pouco Dinheiro
nos irrita e 
nos belisca;
muito dinheiro 
faz tropeçar,
ao fazer 
mais e mais....

tears
     so near,
     voices
silent,
images
       live on:
why
why
      do I cry..
and.. 
       sigh
and
      wait
      wait on
near..
      nearby...

Guns, or
Bobby covered in Rosey Greer, or 
Monterey Pop,
Or I'm one years old, 
The Chicago 7, or
DNC, PR
Vietnam, or
The Man on Moon in Motion.

Tragic night in Sixty-Eight.
Praise to my mother’s Underwood.
Grieving fingers would not abate,
creating a thesis for Masterhood,
while cities burned with hate.

I remember 
so well 
the friends 
that I made
when childhood 
was wrapped 
in blue sky

but I cannot
remember 
the last time 
we played
 - and whether 
we all said 
goodbye....

Sparkling sugar tops
Song about a cold winter
Frost is in the air

The first snowflake kiss
Happy first day of winter
Let me warm my heart

her rainbow is
an upside down
smile so let's
subtract 69 and
try to add up what
might be happening
but let's not ever
forget the chaos
factor though it may
just be a fraction off
but who ever heard
of a smiling

Now my freedom spent,
My life before lies,
And life behind I cherish still
And keep thoughts of it most dear.

I turn again and go beyond
To seek with partner found,
And search together on and on
"Till death does part our bound....

Haiku 68
		
		
	storms raging
	breached levees of sanity
	lives swept away
	
	
	rain-swollen river
	lost in swirling darkness
	madness in their eyes


	receding waters
	absent, some forgotten
	voids where they once were
	

	my awakened heart...

Quatrain #68:
PUZZLE


Live and discern the style of mad,
Love knows concern when things turn bad;
Let laughter earn the way back home,
Do what you yearn and purge thoughts sad.

Quatrain #68:
SOUL


Love comes to mint a certain poise,
Joy knows the tint in cheery voice;
Faith moves fine lint to shine fond dream,
Hope sparks the flint to fire fine choice.

A 68 Coronet
	in canary yellow
white vinyl top
	440 mag inside

a four pack on top
	an auto shift
60 in 10
	in black smoke

room for five
	and all their bags
12 to the mile
	but 32 cents

so long ago
	lost in time
once it was
	in my youth...

They say, Allah has got a son!
Whereas He is the Most Sacrosanct 
And the Self-Sufficient One.
Everything that is in the skies 
And the earth belongs to God.
You have no proof to show!
Do you allege about Allah what you don’t know?

Say, whoever fabricates lies against Allah the Truthful
Will never ever be successful....

And your Lord has inspired the bee:
Make hives in the mountain and in the tree
Then eat of all the fruits
And roam in the ways of your Lord obediently.

There comes forth from within the bee
A very colorful beverage, you see
In which for the humans there is remedy
Surely there’s a sign in it
For the people who think deeply....

In hospital after the crash, I lost my ability to walk.
He said he had to go. Last time I ever heard him talk.
Knowing this, I thought my loving heart would burst.
And now I know that if he can’t love me at my worst. 
Then he doesn’t deserve me when I am at my best.
My predicament had sadly put him to the test....

Noooon! Swear upon the pen and things that are written 
By the grace of your Lord you are not insane
And surely you shall have endless reward
And certainly you conform to magnificent morality
So you shall see and they too shall see
Which of you is mad
Surely your Lord knows best
Who is on the right track and who is on the wrong track...

Over
And over
Said we
Could
Begin again
But all
You bleed 
Is regret
Cuz we’re
Over
And over
Again
Thinking 
Why did
We begin
Over 
And over
Again
Maybe 
You got
Too close
So it had
To be
Over
And over
Again
Or worst you
How you
Loved heroin
More than 
Me please
Don’t take 
This to a final
Over and over
Again...

I love you
for you're
the reason
I've a place
in this race.
The reason I
feel life breathe,
love, laugh
and yes,
even grieve.
But, dear mom,
please don't
lecture me
on how to be
a son
because, you see,
you've never
been one
let alone
an only son!

                    With love. Sincerely,
                            Your son.  ('68)...
