Denial

“I don’t care” sat on her lips like an 
      unacknowledged tumor
metastasizing

I don’t care
said it all in its refusal to
acknowledge
     the depths of its anguish

Ill Will

Too ponderous of a weight
To carry on one's shoulders
Slowly metastasizing
Cancer on one's soul

Never To Sleep

Those migratory storks,
will not come
this year.
The lake was burning.

The secret kill
of the wringer
was metastasizing.
Make the tether-

small for the macabre
end. I am not yet
frozen. The stalker

will not leave the
flame. Outside a tribute
was ready for
an uprooted tree.

My shadow moves ahead
to catch a cage bird,
in the parrot green sky.

The Unglad

("Utopia and Terror Merit Badge", 2010, original oil)

The Unglad

Increasingly
You, me, us
Are part of the great
Unglad
People without much hope
Given the great
Inexorable
Tide of Unhumans
That from Marx on down
To today
Has morphed like a metastasizing
Cancer
Until all that’s left
Of the uncorrupted
Is the Unglad
Sick and tired, 
In need of safe harbor 
And solace
Before the gathering storm.

Bastard Sunrise

The Rough Slouching Beast has been born in Washington. Upon its birthing what bastard sunrise were we promised to relinquish our souls? What white dawn in darkness was actually immune cells rallying to fight a growing cancer? Now that it has begun metastasizing upon our national flesh, tell me, O toothless sages of our faith, what is your plan to restore our birthright of azure, blush mornings while we can still live to see them?

Autumn's Final Toll

Chilling tides turn the leaves of my soul
For Summer's balmy days I pine and troll
Residual reams of light o'er slighted heart scroll
Scourging winds erode my wavering, intellectual pole
Truant feelings flood my sensory console
Alternating, rancid dreams my psyche patrol
Molting mind is making my wit drab, droll
Burrowing through lengthening nights; entrenched mole
Color blind, as metastasizing changes o'er my body roll
Twining memories strand my spirit on life's, rocky shoal
