Some Babycham and Irish Mist
May smooth the way to being kissed
Score one for Mabel
Under the table
Though it looks like she kissed and missed . . . ....

Grumpy all the while

housing all the bile

building on hate pile

calling all vile

distanced by  a mile

missing  all the smile

hemmed in an isle

All  set to derail....

mysterious Castle of Grootsinger
overseeing the sparkling Rhine
keeping dark secrets of lovers
housing rumors of mystique and espionage
I prance in gladly
caring not if I get out alive...

I saw a battled frame
housing a black 
and white photo
of a hero 
in war, 

proudly posing
hiding his fear, 
his fragility

some family's pride
and country's

creased, 
in a junk shop...

Many housing builders fight over me.
My reddish wood is beautiful to see.
I have more than one common name.
Growing one hundred feet is my fame.
One of my names starts with Norway.
Can you name my other name today?...

Public Housing


The rattle 
in the walls
would stop, 
I’m told, 
if the litter 
in the halls
were edible.
Night after night,
tin after tin 
the rats squeeze in 
to feast on 
their reflections.

it s been up hill
like cotton mill
turning housing burning
its still part of our pass
at last
after allthe pain
don't let there lives be in van
they paid the  prices
for our rights
so much to be dom remaing
but
tTIMES OR CHANGING...

Crooked branches
Falling leaves
Firmly in soil
You perfect tree

Nests of birds
Housing eggs
Home to some
You perfect tree

Sweet ripe fruit
Dangle from your hair
Food for few
You perfect tree

Helping all
You perfect tree...

I met with a group who were passionately against deforestation,
who held their meetings at one of their member's log cabins,
and the rest of the members all lived in wooden housing.
People tend to not practice what they claim to believe in....

Big tin boxes
All in a row
Housing people
I don't even know

Placed close together
Just a few feet apart
So I  can hear every sneeze
 Every cough, every fart

Stray cats are a problem
So are dogs that bark
I totally hate living
In this trailer park...

I pay the bank for this 
Very bank used for standing
And staring with nothing left
To do but rob Peter, forget Paul
I didn’t like him very much anyway
Dollar dropped is a dollar lost to me
Investing naively in the will of free lies
To prepare for a future without living the life...

A HOUSE FOR HUMANE REMAINS A COVERING

A shelter that has it’s coverings a top, bottom 4 corners;
Housing human beings protecting them;
Liken cave dwellers animals snuggle hide behind boulders;
Taken in by family protects friends;

Born and lived as one
Suffering terrorist wrath
Housing souls within

Falling to their knees
With fatal skeletal wounds
Bleeding flesh and dust

Catastrophic acts
To the ground, loose curtains fall
Human spirits soar

9/11 names 
Speaking through living voices
Never forgotten...

Caseworker’s Rounds

	Cabrini-Green 
	Public Housing
        Chicago

Where I am now
there are no leas, no
sheep feeding.
There are tenements,
children breeding.
Where I am now
there are no trees, no
wrens lighting.
There are halls far, dark,
an old man peeing.
