Chlorophyll,
dissected hearts,
painfully
realized.
Atom bomb,
broken glass,
finally
putrefied.
Sanctuary,
is absurd,
heavenly,
dramatized.
Warming sun,
fragrant bloom,
fitfully,
cauterized.

A mouthful
of hate
A bullhorn
of lies
Dissected
infected
With terminal
pride
Conscripting
the fledgling
Embedded
in brine
Indicted
convicted
True felons
— of time

Cultures dissected …
structured refusal
Cloistered eruptions
dearth to accept
Rising triumphant
they steal from each other
Defining their existence
—by what they reject

white veil over head
chocolate feathers full fledged ---
benedictine nun?
karambit knife beak
dissected longan fruit eyes ---
elliptic airplane?
scavenger for prey
dead and alive you enslave ---
fancy in bird form?

The lilac haze of Dawn creeps up,
With the stealth of a vampire.
Bleeding glistening red droplets into
The blue-black veined forest
And to the monochromatic hills beyond.

Those
Body organs
Brain and heart
And more
Show up in
Medical records
Doctor's columns
And home remedies..
It is the dissection of
The separate
Individual into
What appears as
Dissected storylines
Of knowing and
Searching...

Sectional life in the boxes or wedges.
Bold colors, mixed up life
Were you evil or prophetic?
Was it all to be noticed?
Art you way, no explainations!
Subjects cross-sectioned, dissected,
Grossly or brilliantly created?
Art observed by the viewer, for the viewer to critique.

This is not really me
Merely smoke and mirrors
Plying a day job
That pays the bills
The me
I see
Dissected into ribbons cleverly disregarded
Like a modern day beetle
Imagining all the people
Who have heard the news today and chosen to stay
Sometimes the clothes do not fit the father

FROG
Have you ever taken flowers?
Dissected frog stomach
Flat rainbow pointy like nails
Silent flowers record sign
Taken flowers
Wounded back
Get well soon by forgetting
Don't like flowers
For you all to like
Because you like to be romance
For you romance becomes flowers

Ballade
courage lies in the eye of beholders
but unfriendly fire had blinded her sight
collateral damage in the face of a battle
long lost shrapnel in hollow sockets
visions of compassion dissected by slaughter
thunder of warfare in bullet proof darkness

Bobbing
Head and beek
Bobbing up and down the sidewalk
Drops the dissected insect
Bobbing up and down
Head and beek
Chirping Robin
dissecting repeatedly droppings
Yummy ?? insect and worm
Picking up and dropping
Chirp yummy-yum
Robin eating the worm

What to do, what to do
When your stories now, have all been told
and you’re stuck on repeat
When you’re feeling a bit tattered and old
Tempted by defeat
What to do, what to do
When no longer is the mirror your friend
and you’re feeling disconnected
When you fear things coming to an end

There once was a thief from Indiana
Who specialized in stealing bananas---
He was lithe and thin
And moved like the wind---
In a monkey-themed yellow bandana
He struck when it was least suspected
Stunning each victim he selected---
Quickly in and out
They had no time to shout---
Darn monkey! I'll have you dissected!

Limerick
There once was an old lady from Maine.
Born in Virgo, a critic, quite plain,
her zest for punctuation
caused poetic frustration,
but they cared for her all of the same.
While writing one day this fine teacher
met her match a right handsome preacher
he dissected her acts
found her lacking in tact
and schooled her behind the wood bleacher!

heart (attack) smack the face / in the arm. dripping life
from hollow holes, holy good god gracious, such a courageous spirit.
/ lick it up, baby, love it, want / it all. it wasn't my fault-- (fall).
solution to the brawl, what to do;what to say. we all know.
[delicious poisonous wondrous] __ we still have hope, right?
too late, great, delectable fate.

I work for a cocky boss
With whom I can never converse
He always has to have the last word
Everything you say to him appears absurd
He speaks like a judge in a courtroom
Your every word dissected and doomed
He walks aright and with a swagger
In his pocket a hidden dagger
Waiting to dissect the unsuspecting specimen
With cynicism he awaits his next big luncheon

so the little time is
spent
i look at the minute
dissect it
till the microscope of time
is pushed too far
I am
not taking into account your account
it's all about me
I sigh,
idly i amble to this moment
dazzling my eyes
the glistening water streams
no river is formed
as the surface absorbs it
no drops
my dissected minute....met the whole
in a split second.

Listen to poem:
When life's journey folds in on itself,
Becomes a jumble, in clattered confusion,
it's wise to hold back,
and stall the footfall.
To disassemble the journey and saga,
into it's component parts,
and lines in play.
To revert to time's tick tock routine,
taking one step, one mere step,
before every second one,
reflecting on each moment,
dissected,
and stepped,
upon.

Soulless
Dissected
A heart turning back
Jilted
Rejected
Last stab in the back
Mourning
New morning
The day unatoned
Nighttime
The verdict
Whose sentence disowns
Lovers
And lizards
The swamp but the same
Feeding
On hunger
Starvation the game
Cursing
each blessing
with heartache reset
Dying
While living
— new tears wait unwept

I’m a Scientist.
I Invented an Eraser
That Works best on Blank Page.
I’m a Photographer.
I Shoot the best Pictures
Of Darkness.
I’m a Mathematician.
I Count the Stars
Every Night.
I’m a Farmer.
I Planted two Seeds
And Turned them into Compost.
I’m a Zoologist.
I Dissected a Frog
And Cured it’s Cancer.
I’m a Writer.
My Best Story
Contains Zero Words!

Under divinities shadow,
Rests the tree of life.
With aromatic branches,
Dissected by a pocket knife.
Medicinal veins lushly flow,
Carrying remedial cures.
A verdant daze ensues,
As romantic buds allure.
Poetic smoke…recites,
The stanzas of cannabis trees.
As healthy lungs exclaim,
The power of curative leaves.

I'm dead
by the deeds I never do
I'm toxic to the flower
which bloomed from my roots
I'm an expired soul
who took my heart as a whole
I was torn away by the pieces
which I picked to save
I'm a dissected seed
to the plants I nurtured
I'm deceased
letting my words bleed eternally
I'm a dead poet
singing my last breath
I'm dead and lost
by living my heart to the fullest.

Each mind is a filter…
the wheat from the chaff
Each vision dissected,
to cry or to laugh
Each chance in the moment,
to live or to hide
Each reason a marker,
to vow or belie
Each leaf that has fallen,
the price that we’ve paid
Each morning recalling,
which bed is unmade
Each voice in the distance,
one name on the wind
Each memory unspoken
—to call from within

I grew up in a one roomed shack
a king size Coca-Cola space
crammed like Marlboro cigars in a pack
a place I ran to for defense
my home which some see as a plight
where my family had to find the right way
it was my bedroom at night
my mother's pantry by day
a lounge where my dad like a doc upon a cadaver dissected
The Star while his kids goggled at Luxor television
I grew up in a shack protected
by corrugated irons walls of a mansion

Narrative
In walls of my mind, I build small spaces..
Each locked box holds stories, hiding faces.
Life dissected, neatly compartmentalized..
I shuffle through words, keeping pain disguised.
But in thoughts confined, truth seeks emancipation..
Yearning for unity, escaping separation.
For in bringing fragments together, I find release..
A patchwork poem that grants my soul inner peace.
