OPENING NIGHT
she slips
juts hips
dish flips
no tips
waitress flounders. she slips! juts hips! first
unbalanced meal. dish flips! no tips! WORST!
In deep amnesia
The truth forgotten
The future unknown
Entity flounders
Hither and thither
Directionless
In the darkness
Oblivious
To the true Self
In prayer
Innocence
Reclaims truth
The way
Inwards
Pure

We've had fun in areas being out of our league.
As you rise to scale, you will get an intrigue.
And discover if we're the epitome of flounders.
We've learned that deride is akin to followers.

A step ahead
A step behind
The motion foreign
The distance blind
To look then forward
While looking back
The moment flounders
The line goes slack
The past—the future
Regret and hope
A sun now darkened
Your shadow gropes
A step ahead
A step behind
That missing link
—still yours to find
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2015)
Corporate wealth sought
by Labour czar conquistadors
scourge wealth
the have-nots will prevail
30,000 measly votes for a standing Labour MP
the enthusiasm for them is underwhelming
without PR we are shorn of democracy
sleepwalked into a Labour majority
Apathy is their achilles heel
belief flounders
when Reform were second
in 100 seats
Went on a fishing boat
Caught three fish
Bested my friends who
caught nothing
The day passed in a
kind of haze
Didn't even drink a beer!
but was happy with my 2 flounders and one striped bass
My fish were tossed back into the water
So they could go on
with their aquatic lives
Answer the call of the ocean! For in it lies the secret to life!
Is it logic
Is it impulse
Is it neither
Or then both
Is it Descartes
Is it Hegel
Is it Kantian
In our hope
Will we whisper
Will we dictate
Will we prejudge
Most devout
Will we wonder
Will we question
Will we pander
Into doubt
In the morning
In the noontide
In the twilight
Of our youth
Reason saunters
Reason flounders
Reason kneels
— before the truth
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
Common fields we share
each hand takes a little more,
each wishing to share—
plenty thins; scarcity leers;
common good flounders in lust.
Self shields its own gain,
hunger grasps beyond enough,
past what suffices—
we hoard, hide our greedy grabs
shunning the common good share.
Only when it fades,
grass worn down to barren soil—
do we speak restraint?
too late, or almost too late,
to stop the commons' shared fate.
Changes immanent a key
Voices lost in puberty
Flounders all in uniform
Fearful of the social norm
You had no choice
You paid the price
What fell on your body
Like water and ice
Thrown from the channel
You struggle in air
Mind racing nowhere
You stand up and stare
Now decades later you pause and concede
All memories are phantom all money is greed
The child that you lost the only one true
In a spasm of fate youth was stolen from you
