ADMIRATIONS
captivated
  by
    the imperative
genuflecting
  the polyphonetic
with
demode
  certainties

castigating
  & circumventing
pressures

entranced
    by
      the
unsettling

yet
irrepressible
  influences
of
today

A Name On a List

a registered owner
a name on a list
each time I take aim
or pop in the clip
I'm waiting for the clatter
as they break down my door
after circumventing 
our second amendment
surrender your firearm
your cache of ammo
decease and desist
this awesome pleasure

Circumventing the Silence 1

The night so long with dreaded suspense
and pain the darkness augments.
Morning circumvents
the silence.
Grope!

Dawn's mist of dew inspires common sense
dread retreats in self-defense.
Morning circumvents
the silence.
Cope!

Birdsong echoes my triumph intense,
stirring light and breeze commence.
Morning circumvents
the silence. 
Hope!

Premium Member Fire

Flames swallow oxygen,
duplicitous in their deeds,
circumventing steel barriers—
steel barriers doubling over.

Ashen soot cakes the walls;
walls crumble, interlacing with soot.
Pyres of fire lick the night sky;
crimson smoke suffuses the air.

Breathing in microparticles,
microparticles sticking
to fibrous membranes—
breathing collapses.

Lit match—ignition,
cinders glow.

Twilight Love

Shadows in twilight turned to black and white
Inside the house looking out of the window down the street
Waiting impatiently for her future to drive up the driveway

An arched back stretches to infinity
Kneeling over the love-seat with circumventing thoughts 
To not spoil the reality of what's to be

Half-naked half-clothed feminine beauty 
Waiting for time to start moving once again
And experience love for the first time


Sleepy Monday Mariner

drifting, drifting with heavy eyelids 
in and out of our conversation.

 pilgrim to your words i wander.

circumventing around the room to 
follow strait edged symetries.

cloudy, foggy, i cannot rise through this vapor. 
so i settle in a cup of dark coffee. 

 then fogbell foreheaded stumbling 
into iceberg corners of desk and chaires.

 like roald amundson i drift narrowly down the isle
along the northwest passege of my cubicled sobriety.
