Suburban Sidewalk
An ancient hitching-post survives
Too strong and stable to tear down;
The horse-drawn cart no more arrives,
For Time has altered Man and town....

Something Completely Insane
Now for something completely insane
Not so unusual considering where it came
Monty Python was the gang
Where this silliness sprang
Carrying their torch, hitching on to their fame...

Limerick
Each Moment
Pointing his thumb,
two feet close behind
Direction untethered,
new mountains to climb
Hitching tomorrow,
to yesterdays past
To ride in the present
—each moment to last
(Presbyterian Hospital: October, 2019)...

Thumb Screws
Thumb screws its way walking a straight line down the middle of the road hitching a ride on a new page no road kill here life’s a breeze surfing open minds along the torturous wake with all the sweet things

Peace Be With You
Echoed voices across the seas
Hitching rides amongst the breeze
Speaking words that come to mind
Peace be with you...and to all mankind

Laziness Is A Choice
Laziness Is A Choice
Miracle Man
(from my archives)
Many are content to go through life hitching rides,
but I prefer to work and drive a car;
Those going through life constantly seeking a handout
Will always have their hand out,
and just enough in it to keep their gut from growling.

Transmit
phantom purr, fantasy fur
obscurity occurs;
matchbox rattlesnake
roulette universe stirring the milkshake.
hitching the horizontal,
words play the stars.
street signs become platonic,
particle dust becomes my sunset
on the narcotic checkered floors.
circulating rotten taste,
secrecy keeps transmitting awake......

Secrets
Secrets sail
drifting, flying
hitching a ride
cushioned and cossetted
safely tucked
among clouds of innocence
longings float
hidden
and
unblessed
as lonely wind
The salve of time
gratefully pushes
his silent Hobos
tumbling bittersweet
toward the ecstacy of
nothingness.
Listen.
Do you hear a fading heartbeat on the breeze -...

Ye Gods, What Now
Sitting in the bar; perusing the headlines:
From “Galileo Forced to Recant Statement that Earth Orbits Sun”
To “China Bans Reincarnation without Government Permission” -
Yahweh grimaces and hands Zeus another beer
As He mutters, “What were we Thinking?”
Thor turns to Meteora: “What about another game of darts, darlin’?”
Buddha just rolls His eyes
And sighs
As Jesus and Mohammed discuss hitching a ride to another galaxy...

Narrative
My Pad and Pen and I
Hitching a ride to a distant horizon
No course in mind, no why, no reason
Just my pad and pen and I
With my two best friends I ride
I tried to pack light just necessities
But my past clings to me with tenacity
Then those pesky things called memories
Refused to stay behind as history
So with some baggage I trod along
Pad and pen determined, headstrong
To find that one true elusive verse
To release me from my self induced curse...

Blue Sky's
My kettle is coughing; soon its shrill whistle
will startle me, even though I know exactly
when it will erupt.
Two pelicans have been sighted in Northern Ohio.
Elsewhere, terror, war, horror, blood and dust.
I pour my morning tea, singing a tune
from 'West Side Story,' while an enthralled Maria listens.
Fox News and CNN, for once agree - just kidding.
I drink the tea.
I imagine lost pelicans hitching a ride South.
A truck driver has reported blue sky’s
in Kentucky....

Hypothalamus
My hypothalamus is haunting me.
An empty crib.
A bump that will never grow.
Love authenticity, you will always be a part of me.
A ghost in the hallways.
Your heart beat in my deepest quetiapine dreams.
A scan that will never show your sweetest echo.
Father, why would you make me bleed the love so pure?
I lost my voice from speaking you into existence.
He runs his fingers over my stomach my breath hitching, hoping yours is too.
My hypothalamus is haunting me.
