draws a long cerulean breath

To sup upon milky whey and curds
Sipping up star shake with slurp and burp...

Sulky, crater-faced moon
Pocked by infinite awestruck gaze
Burrows behind dark clouds
Preserving its existence....

splatter into dust

                        tiny circles crater out

                           graceful element

A nocturnal wolfhound in Crater Lake
has his fun when no one’s awake
Every night he prowls
greeting raccoons and owls
Then sleeps until lunch with no break...

Henry, an extraordinary excavator
Would arrive there sooner rather than later.
Using his big cat,
When shown where it was at,
He would dig you an enormous crater....

What explains the existence of man?
Are we part of a great, noble plan? 
What gave man his big break?
Eden’s wise, wily snake?
Just some space junk that hit Yucatan....

Sailing through a black hole, he arrived;
our solar system welcomed him
meteor at journey’s end
landed with a big thud;
radiation burned
Tunguskas land;
deep crater
Its’ burn,
built.

Ask me to fight the devils, 
Ask me to jump in a crater,
Ask me to pull down a mountain,
All are just possible, yet,
When i look in her sparkling eyes, her majestic body,
I then realize that i am just a man made of paper....

Poignant scroll on impulse
plethora of brainstorm
pen a lucid haze with
panoramic line shade’s
plush enchanted metre
peeping into vacant 
psyches hollow crater

Cindi
an invisible girl
a butterfly of moon
fell in Clavius 
in mock war.

Science fiction?
fantasy?
Cindi knows.








Clavius is one of the largest crater formations on the Moon,

CRATER a vvv
       fragile     and
      volatile     lie

The hands of God cradle
liquid sapphire splendor 
glistening peaks surround
like points on a royal crown. 

Behold the glory of the
serene, majestic lake
in whose mirrored reflection 
one might see the face of God.

just a day longer.
and waiting just another marker.
too much time to bother.
patience wins against a lie the jealous heart its author.

comfort in the crater.
waters tide has washed.
stain free
separated flesh the ghost now atop the leafs
i feel truly free to wander....

A smile can bring a breath of fresh air
to a heart that’s been broken
or a soul in despair

A smile needs no sound
‘NO YOU DON’T HAVE TO SHOUT’
Sometimes your mouth will open
and you teeth shine out

A smile is infectious
just look and see...
I think you’ve just caught
that crater from me!...

I wonder…
What catastrophic rock
Could have caused this gigantic hole,
Over two miles around,
And half a mile deep,
Like some giant's awesome soup bowl?

Could it be…
When the earth was born,
God just ran out of clay,
So, he left it there,
Unfinished and bare,
Waiting for a more convenient day?...

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO IMITATE

It's impossible to imitate
nothing, yet simple
to emulate everything.
The true way is to meet
life with the sound of
one hand clapping. Bend
life as you would bake
a rice cake with the karma
of your life. I saw the moon
last night with my face
in a crater, smiling 
back at me like a fool....

Raping the sky of its luster,
a new darkness began to imbue

Draining the ocean—taking its salt,
a pillar for Edith renewed

Shearing the top off the mountain,
its crater to hemorrhage and bleed

Stealing the promise from every hope
all faith left to weather—unfreed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2020)...

Sometimes While in the Moment

Sometimes I sink deep
Into the crater
Of my mind;
And when I’ve become
Filled with the empty
Ness of myself,
I climb back up
Pulling hope
From the black hole
Of my heart, dripping crystal tears
As I bow and pray a lover’s prayer.

Maybe one day
We’ll get it together
Again....

Mesmerized by his own success,
swimming naked and alone in the dark

Drowning in what he forever professed,
he rose and fell with each critic’s remark

Hypnotized while diving for fame,
he sank while caught in the tide 

His pleadings washed up, divested and bare,
exposed—with nowhere to hide

(Crater Lake: October: 2015)...
