Las Vegas renown Belle E. Danser
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
—in flashes of joy and pain
(Las Vegas: January 23, 2016)
Taking a last breath inside

Las Vegas
Three layers of clouds
On a paranormal sky of multicoloured insanity
In Las Vegas, god and devil merged
Into one identity
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
(Las Vegas Boulevard: 2 A.M. January, 2018)
luck smiles at me playing
playing the slot machines from hell
the numbers are turning out
luck smiles at me
the numbers turning up
roulette
black, red odd
numbers
hot
Within the tragedy of a broken dream
rages a fiery lost inferno
Where we burn in fearful anticipation
—waiting for the alarm to sound
(Las Vegas Nevada: January, 2016)
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
(Freemont Street Las Vegas: July, 2022)
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 Nevada: January, 2020)
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.

*God bless the souls of Las Vegas slaughter !
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
