a poet’s stubbornness 
awful tastes, wicked thoughts 
well ment understandings 
love of the heart 
fluid dreams 
a delicious art of 
poetry’s love...

put aside to make an extract in

Restless movements dripping,drop

Jewel covers rocks pleasures
Fossils of dormant brown doubles
Captivate earthen brothers

The fool consults his satellite
Eager to shred to tatters
All ambition to fight
Structured tyranny
Rolling over
Civil minds
Without
Fear...

A novel way of seeing ,to the jaded eye....

structured refusal
Cloistered eruptions
dearth to accept 
   
Rising triumphant
 they steal from each other
 Defining their existence
—by what they reject

peaceful beacon beams and glows
calms the storms in me

sailor tossed up in the foam
rescued by your light

Keeping it to yourself,
while giving it away

Only poetry is split,
and structured this way

A deft oxymoron,
as light is re-sourced

but not seeing expressions on the

surrounding the radiant soul,clear

make yourself known,teach me the

Children in the schoolhouse
Chant a structured, uneasy song
“Risseldy-rosseldy
Mow-mow-mow"
Monkey Bars behind a bench...
She nervously lights a cigarette
Something is about to happen
A single crow lands.
