Smoking Under the Stars

The night sky is clear glass
placed on top of black velvet
with pinholes of light seeping
through, spelling our names
in the wind as we catch
the lemon slice of moon,
putting it in the back pocket
of our mind.

Pinholes and Pendulums

Visualize the interaction of the energies of people’s lives as pinholes and pendulums.
  Shimmers reflecting streaks of god’s light
    Through pinhole instances
      Which illuminate the infinite,
        Defiant night.

Premium Member Is There Life Out In the Sky

As I stare up...into the sky 
I often tilt my head...and sigh 
At those pinholes...way up high 
There's so many...my oh my 
Is there life out there...gone by 
If there is...then can it fly 
Can it love...and can it cry 
Is it alive...or did it die

Premium Member Partial Solar Eclipse -- Austin 30 May 1984

There was a solar eclipse today.
Only partial, but enough to make you want to look.
It made me sad.
I didn't have a piece of smoked glass or ultra-dark Ray Bans, and certainly not a solar scope.
Looking up, I saw the sun flash through leaf-made pinholes waving in the breeze.
Disappointed, I looked down,...
and discovered a thousand crescent suns dancing at my feet.


The Chemist

you will long for this, Chemist,
i am sure.

inhale.
thicker than your skin,
whiter than the pupil of your eyes.
gush into your arteries,
it's pinholes, and pins,
and pin ticks, and stings.
from your foot, 
(I was familiar with),
to your thighs,
above your ribs,
inside the chambers of your heart.
hold it!
barricade your spine,
this is not your usual migraine.

you will long for this, Chemist.
this is love.
this is nitrogen.

Screeching Howl To the Fair Wind

At the traffic dodged broken barrier
My clown  eclipses pinholes gander
Reeked in the phallic sundust
Pouring out in putrid urgencies
Human beams of ghastly thought
Clinging to lucrative belly rings
Bastion of glowing hope tied to rope
Losing abundance in American swamps
As we creek our bells across the world
Drowning coca cola babies all the same
 Puns, cliques, and gospel truants 
I am fearless to step on statues
To heckle hairdos and smeckle bear feuds

Starkle, Starkle Little Twink


Starkle, starkle little twink
what the hell you are, I think
tantalizing hanging moon
rocking chair or empty spoon.

Twinkle, twinkle, ain’t you cute
glitter on night’s darkest suit,
jewels upon an evening’s gown
tiara mate to kingly crown.

Needle point of heaven’s face
pinholes poked in deepest space
eyes that watch us from afar
twinkle, twinkle, little star.
