      The captain sails his ship to
                    sea.

because her father was a troll,
and, also, her face got wet
because she came last in the alphabet.

To be literate makes us cock of the hoop. 
If we cannot read we’re out of the loop,
but can a slowpoke,
and illiterate folk,
learn to read eating alphabet soup.

Mental Digestion

they puddle
pale green like mud
or alphabet soup
words & thoughts
dissolve
into letters & impulse
broken down to base parts;
under enough pressure,
anything will crumble

a story in my alphabet 
a blue dream of your smiles

Poetry Haunting

I manifest into 
poetry, haunting 
the alphabet like 
a poltergeist.

Words become 
possessed, with 
a flick of my pen.

What comes out 
depends in the 
mood that I'm in.

For the Dying, a Journey Through the Alphabet

Avoid becoming concrete.
Death encroaching
freezes great hearts.
Illuminate joy.
Kindle love.
Magnify!
Never orally
practice quaint
rhetoric. Speak truths.
usurp violent waters.
X-ray your zenith.

The First Poet

doors and roses
horses laugh
mystery abounds
leaves whisper
you guide your spirit
on the alphabet,
just like the first poet

Hurricane

Batten down hatches
as hurricane season is
with us once again.

The alphabet will
roll out names like Katrina
fraught with memories

even for west coast
voyeurs in awe of weather
we never have felt.
