from sink to spinach, gourds, vines

the skyline, 
leveling a peak to make

Recycling Usage

Use the stones 
of my grave,
to build your home;
Use the wood
of my coffin, 
to heat your home up;
Use my bones
to feed your pet;
Use my memory

In their wake the shifting sands bury secrets, centuries old.

Turning tides recycle sands and cleanse the womb, of Mother Earth.

the dying leaves of autumn have one last chase, before passing.

they will sleep in painted canvas ground, recycling themselves by spring.

From the garbage bins she took out the cans, 
On the station she had no fans.

Sighing and praying all in one phrase. 
Days later I saw her again, 
Muma won't wake up again,, she said in pain....

 The old barn
condemned;
fresh wood
for creative juices;
carved and whittled into
the most refined
picture frames,
you’ve ever
ever imagined
to don
a fine portrait...
condemned
to a new life.

my poems are crap
written on toilet tissue
waste bin overflows

I straighten each sheet
these words will get flushed away
perfect recycling!

socio economic pyramids and parallel o grams in space. 
I do like uncle sams green eggs and ham.
 Let the world crash, start over again.

They dont put you in prison for office crimes.
 Put your credit in the recycling center...
