Draped in mother’s arms....

creep into that wasted house
no structure to reinforce
what has been hollowed out

one day soon these walls will collapse
and the cause will be chiseled in the ashes
Relapse...

books feel no pain
though tattered and torn. 

not pricked with voodoo precision,
chiseled at the gums.

my upturned smile borrows misery.
I can not turn the pages.

the patrons read my lips
"woe be gone"...

They say that I am "old school", not as far back as the cave man goes
           Have a "Flintstone" model computer, everything that I write is not chiseled in
stone
                             I like progress, not trying to re -invent the wheel...

Split-rail fences, stark and grey
Rim the Bull Run battlefield
Where Confederates that day
Forced the Union line to yield.

Cannon still command the hill
By the chiseled monument
Where some of those who came to kill
Sleep…dank earth their tent....

Chiseled face from Cliffs of Moher
On Keyboard slender fingers prance
Mastery, knowledge daily Growing
Lonely for so many years
Inner world you do embrace

Meticulous diary for keep
Enya Brennan;s eyes enriched with glow
Noting if those are worth
Through numerous heaps...

You see that snoutfair over there
People everywhere gape at him
Could it be his short wavy hair
You see that snoutfair over there
No one else will ever compare
He's chiseled, composed, tall and slim
You see that snoutfair over there 
People everywhere gape at him...

Charisma
Character like fizzy soda
Charismatic bubbly citrus cobra
Slither like a quicksilver persona
Persuasive chanter of poetic chatter
He has the aroma of one who is
A chiseled chest square chin
Chilling mister chinchilla Casanova
And quite the master enigma...

Grandfather

My hero is gone now, 
He was a real man, 
among real men. 

They walked tall, 
in his time. 
They took no guff, 
spit, and shook your hand.

Their “word”, 
each, and every “one”,
chiseled in stone, 
carved in ivory 
and counted as gold. 

Dignity....

Everlasting Beauty

Place upon the heart,
of my discerning eyes.
True Love that
lives in freedom of your heart.
And if I may
yearn for a kiss
from the fountain of 
your faith.
Then shall I see,
 Grace, 
For what it truly is:
A life-long dream
chiseled from the hands of beauty....

Chiseled from the rock of ages,

you shine upon the water’s throne,

frosted white with winter’s pages

and crowns of glory, on each stone,

feeling the whispers of the wind

in this no man’s land, without a friend
