Voices That Call

Real poets do not hide
  behind ivy covered walls

But write within the maelstrom
 —of those voices that call

Of Tragedy She Would Not Write

     Of imagery in yonder meadow
       she had much to say
     from daffodils on rolling hills
       to ivy covered fences

     Yet of tragedy she would not write
        of carnivores contending
     for the hoof of a femme fatale
        ~ She could not bear the ending

Dearest Alma Mater

tradition-drenched halls
    ivy-covered walls
  dearest alma mater
    why'd you flatter
  me with this sham degree
  I've no skills, no connections
    my classmates take their meals
  in the house of corrections...

  you took my money, awakened false hopes
    hooked me on oxycontin, a pill-popping dope

Graveyard Angels

wings unfurled in protection
eroded from surrounding rudiments
along a beacon of illumination

visage composed and serene
branching arms cradling cleaving souls
afraid to fade into eternal rest

gifts born from remembrance
weeping, wilting, worn
beneath a wandering ivy-covered guide

quiescent consignor of peace
beyond the cessation of life
- suspended in advocation

Chutes and Ladders

Ivy-covered sheepskin, firmly in hand
    the confident graduate, square-jawed and tan

  Pulled offers from prestigious start-ups all over the land
    a year later he played lead guitar, hat in hand

  He, ever-grateful to his folks for those music lessons
    They, bleary-eyed from all the therapy sessions

  Yet Patience will out, and Time always tells
    Perhaps by thirty-five he'll own an oil well
