Millennial's Curse

Earbuds in and phone in hand,
millennial’s converse

Language distant, eyes unshared,
their lives on hold—obverse

Stags

intense . . . to begin with, belayed by hours
hewn soliloquy through obverse platitudes
benign, betrayal among friends, in grounds
of open mouths, a kraken of tongues regale
upon which bar the cocktails finally arrived

President Without a Precident

President Without A Precedent

Is a President
Without any precedent
Not with our consent

Listening to Rachel Maddow show
and this came to my mind. All 
of the negativism that is appearing
seems to have an obverse affect
creating a positive response.

Sunset West of Eden

Candles wax time pulls it to Earth, drops cool stilled hardens in seconds, a fire holder girth, warps obverse, candles wax time pulls it to Earth, vapors prompt darkening observes, fire loses fight gloaming transcends, candles wax time pulls it to Earth, drops cool stilled hardens in seconds.

Obverse

Wisdom grows alone
darkness eyes attend 
wakes the light slumberer

Deep in wet dreams
respect waves the buried
grounds for divorce

Wind weather attitudes
cries mount
lies draw out

Greens wild the untamed
beast burdens the walled
shaft and base flowers

the unschooled gather names
foothold finds rest
virgin aroused the sleeper

Taste for the end
tomorrow another day
what was paradise?

One Coin, Two Sides

What's true for you even if it is insanity may not be the same for me as we each have our own reality 'There's two sides to every coin' some are said to say 'But what about the edge, when one is on display, showing tails and the obverse?' as a numismatist I insist even a mirror reflects the reverse yet when confronted with a conundrum maybe at least you and me will resolve the knotty quandary with compromise and both agree to disagree
