Was a space flight for Captain Kirk

Where no one dies
Proving fantasy just might work

Space, the final frontier 

I'd rather be there my dear

Cuz I'm a man and a Star Trek fan

So beam me up Scotty, I'm here

Self Infliction

The frontier of violence
strange land of our making
Wilderness of bones and blood
—buried in our fear

Frontier vulture in the coded missions
Autumnal dew is misplaced
Red syrup on the corpse

Relative of Daniel Boone we presume,
Played a frontier man of a later time
Problem solving to earn a dime.

for they foretell; the closet of Mi Amor!

The Pandora's last card in winning 
Is the inspiring word of 'hope' 
The last breath to live
The last bastion of frontier
The potion of life everlasting.

Crossing the Frontier

Weathering all in its fold,
Awaiting her to bare her soul,
Velvet waves calling her near,
Ethereal sunshine paints her clear.
She, determined will cross the frontier.

Frontier Near

Frontier Near

Remembered when we had found a frontier,
That seemed so close as well as very near;
No proper zone;
Now all alone,
And in desperation all of it did disappear.

Premium Member Jfk's Inauguration Day

JFK delivered a rousing speech on Inauguration Day
Peace Corps, New Frontier, Camelot -- He had so much to say

   Yet so many folks don't recall any of that
   All they remember's he took off his hat

Premium Member The Deputy D.A. of John Day

In a frontier town of Oregon
lives a rascally son of a gun.
He’s taking on louses
that beat up their spouses.
I can hardly believe that’s my son!

Bring a Camera

the quest is to reach the zenith
of mad compulsion.
alien to me are cloaked coins
having affairs with the frontier
of it's silk weapon.

the conquest awaits all of us
who are guided by flocks
of falcons flying into hell.

Game of Thorns

thorns of the frontier fence 
is venomous!

these thorns sting and kill 
the innocent peoples 
to save the rank of kings and queens;

these thorns understand 
only vengeance killing; 
not humanity!

                             unbridled it gallops to

New Dawn Is Here

i
untangle
my love
from your
silence
nocturnal dreams
withdrawn heart
of rain
surfacing wants
waves are rising
lost frontier
remnants of the
war of love
you
rise and fall
digging deeper
half closed
eyes
salty saliva
new dawn
is here

Fly, Dragon, Fly

Fly, Dragon, fly,
let Falcon lift you high,
Earth’s gravity defy,
amaze the watching eye.
Two heroes sit inside,
taking this wild ride,
can’t be contained by sky,
our big dreams cannot die,
our nature undenied,
a new frontier so wide,
fly, Dragon, fly.

Searching the Fountain of Poetry

We must drink the poetry,
at the fountain
where souls drink...
On the magical
frontier of mysteries,
between the abysses
and paradises,
purified with an innocent soul...
Thus personified in love,
following the purification
of perpetual motion
of life... !

Display Case

Recalled scenes, like diamonds gleam 
Scattered on velvet black 
Cloth of midnight shadows 
All laid out displayed in showcase 
Lining the dark chambers 
In this graying head, where 
the lamplight of recall is hung 
Illuminating a frontier 
where I stay always young.

New Frontier

I suppose life is here.
There and here.
I surpass the clouds
Alas to the sky.
I swim rivers and mountains.
I swim to Archway Pool.
Japan bows to the excellency
I swim to the barriers of foresight.
My language grows
My relgion grows
Then I wonder the hair
For you, for me.

  New year, cold beer
    Cold beer, Bronx cheer

  Bronx cheer, high gear
    High gear, all clear

  All clear, frontier
    Frontier, sharp spear

  Sharp spear, blood smear
    Blood smear, kill deer

  Kill deer, pure fear
    Pure fear ~
        Get outta here

My Heart, Full Sail

Her hands, I see, are sweetly crafted
My hands, her hair, a river rafted
Or ruby coasts on which I sail
The shore, her face - sublime detail
With sand, so white, so pure, and smooth
Sifting as my fingers move
Her face, her heart, a new frontier
My heart, full sail, is drawing near

Crossed Frontier

Borderland of friendly people,
new land vast to cross,
inviting with its beauty -
enticing.

Visited by Pilgrims -
persecuted men
of new religions
in their countries of origin.

They bonded with indigenous people,
who helped them to survive
and to cross frontier 
between two oceans.

Frontier

The child has drawn a stick-figure. 
Primitive, it lacks a pulse. A child 
sees a hero beyond nerve and sinew, 
heart red as rhubarb. In buckskin 
fringes, gazing into a pool 
just struck by lightning. 
Three more strokes of crayon
create a stallion at full gallop, 
its hooves touching nothing but air.
