gray tones of blah ness
settle into apathy
yesterdays flatline
pathetically plain
ridiculously stagnant
my mind plays opossum
Behind each unvoiced whisper
a shouting heart remains.
Beneath a raging heart
words unsaid speak on.
Within each murmured thought
a shallow grave endures.
Behind words once spoken
lay all things broken.
Enclosed within an unheard whisper,
a raging heart.
Wolfgang Mozart wolfed in haste,
A poetic sonata serene,
Harmonizing in good taste—
Finally finishing in canteen,
For a fix of caffeine.
Wolfgang Mozart makes no bones,
The audience not realizing,
He painted harmonic tones,
Spellbinding, yet not surprising,
Tunes so mesmerizing.
When choosing a ring tone,
Make sure it won’t grate
On your nerves or turn into
A sound that you hate.
They vary from gentle
To jarring or shrill,
While doing the job
They’re designed to fulfill.
We snap to attention
When hearing our phone,
So its ring should be one
We accept as our own.

Staple diets tainted gray
still pesticides they spray
gallops horse of dapple grey
fourth beast say, ”hell’s to pay”
as life bubbles into shape
for human illusion’s sake
two thousand twelve’s wake
Love in life is not a fake
Somber tones may meander
worldly concepts detest a new face
many old faces doth not erase
Love’s face, by perdition’s race
Though much maligned, patiently, I wait
for the fall of beauty to be enthralled
and rest within my iron gate,
where love and innocence is recalled.
I have wrapped your hull in gentleness
and adorned your amorphous soul,
entombed, in wombed, guardian I, rock you
bringing fond memories which coalesce
and ensorceled lullabies to this knoll.
Dark is the glamour which bids you adieu.
Eternal Vibrating Tones of Grace
Eternal dawn, nurturing womb,
Hallowed pure catacomb
Romantic heart of fragrant blooms
Sparkling splendor enthroned
Love from eternity
Sacred vitality
Hope's opportunity
A heavenly wink from mercy's face
Eternal vibrating tones of grace

You spoke a new language
of rarefied air
guided nonchalantly
through curving channels of brass
Conduits of cool
juries of jazz
floating past soulful valves
harbingers of what will come
Slender fingers
improvising storylines
magistrates of melancholy
bailiffs of bop
Miles from the mainstream
a milestone of
modern modalities
kind of blue
That obscene stare
aggravates the silicon
thrust. You become a victim
of an upheaval.
The white dwarfs have
invaded the blackboard.
You can get a glimpse
of unsolicited rape.
A cyanide capsule
hangs on your chest.
Will you commit a suicide
after an unnatural kill ?
It takes a toll. The
abuse of the fingers.
Instead of writing a name
you print the cave.

Mobile ring tones at morning light,
disturb the shapes under covers,
the outlined echoes of last night,
two star-crossed microphone lovers,
drawn from opposite ends of town,
yesterday’s pub entertainers,
way on down at the Old Three Crowns,
they met singing Gloria Gaynor,
ramped and amped with emotion,
to songs that belonged in the haze,
now wake to face their commotion,
the music of separate ways.
