Is deathly afraid of breast cancer
She heard a masseur
Developed a cure
Best of all, the man's a free lancer!

a qualitative masquerade
Ideology trumping feeling

Las Vegas
Three layers of clouds
On a paranormal sky of multicoloured insanity
In Las Vegas, god and devil merged
Into one identity

Blank verse
in the village street
alone our brand new gas lamp
this our Las Vegas,
while we all celebrated
enemy bombs raining down.

How convenient it is too see
thanks to Thomas Edison's scientific mastery.
What do you suppose he would think of us,
visiting some place like Las Vegas?

Odds are Kris Kringle won't Show today
Because Father Christmas leads the way
So jolly Saint Nick
Will be today's Pick
If Santa Claus will lend him his sleigh

Two streams below the falls,
the feeling and message part
Drowning with malcontent
—whirling in a twisted flow

playing the slot machines from hell

rages a fiery lost inferno
Where we burn in fearful anticipation

You first forgive
to then forget
Judgment lost
in past regret
To change the mantra
soul’s unfilled
And cage the snake
—from now until

This morning,
my body stopped in
to say goodbye
Thanking me
for the joy
Forgiving me
for the pain
Fading into
memory
—one last time

Las Vegas Strip Spraying
Last night there was a strip spraying;
Bullets were straying and bodies laying;
Agony there,
And despair;
We wonder what message this is saying.

Las Vegas, big win. The coins are flying.
Casino is broke. Heart attacks. Someone's dying.
On Power Plant two teenagers were playing.
With buttons and wires, just pushing and cutting ;-D

You can’t burn out
if you’re not on fire
Jim roaming wild
pyre to pyre
The only way out
the only way in
Flaming the moment
—death rebegins
