The last thing
you should ever want
is for a poet
to re-edit your verse
Better a robot
still better an ape
if your words to survive
— and disperse
(Dreamsleep: October, 2025)
Exotic Feathers:
effacacious in the wind
winsome moments
resembling rainbows
Oceanic Views:
blankets of crystalline skies
tweaking the soul
breath-taking visions !

An old fountain pen; restored to its former glory.
Parchment awaits its clothing of poetry; my grandmothers words appear; not mine.
Another ancestral visit; she’s tweaking me.
“How still is our tranquil stillness ~
If it ushers not blissfulness”

Seeking connection
In active cognition
Presupposes
Separation
Seeker seeking
Is energy leaking
Methinks silence
Needs tweaking
15-September-2022
tweaking endings requires replaying dreams
but what is the cause of such addiction
wherein we enter trance in our thought streams
state of deep hypnosis our affliction
until ego dies by crucifixion
we may at any time set our soul free
unshackling consciousness from our mind tree
This anxiety has my mind always tweaking,
Bottled up energy about to blow my beacon,
Shattered with everything I am always seeking,
Raddled with misery with the fear that is leaking.
Depression squeezing,
Time slowly seizing
Motions always wheezing
Coasting and never feeling
Roasting and always freezing
Fleeing but never leaving
Siddhis or powers on us may be bestowed,
just as petals open of a blooming rose
but addiction to allurements is best stowed,
that poised in stillness and dwelling in repose,
we see there’s no purpose in tweaking the dream,
which in duality does endlessly stream,
save for the purpose of sharing love and light,
as a beacon of hope in darkness of night.
Depression me, dumb
Showing low or no, signs of fun
What to do
I’ll, forget too
Calm
Feels so wrong
Clouding judgment
Trails of resent
Boy!
What joy?
A need to hide
Then sad decides
Active
For the practice
Tweaking
I’m going out, streaking
You don’t want
To be
Around
When
My feelings fall down
Wow!
Go
Slow
Or you’ll let it all show
During enduring winter rain
the small bird cheeping
his only wish of certain warmth
ducks out of the sheeting rain - each
grain aimed an icy dart poignantly
tipped with a hardening past -
into the chimney duct through
too-small a hole for use again,
tweaking his wish to certain flames,
some sorta luck, and, suddenly drained,
to sync with the rain
Other people raise children.
We sat back and learned from ours.
They kind of raised us.
We had never heard
Of some of the ideas they
Brought home to us.
Designer clothes.
We did not have those
In our day.
I am still being taught by children.
Other people’s not my own.
One taught me twerking last year.
Designer clothes and tweaking.
I am being raised by the best we have
Our children.
there are rumors always flowing
but very little known
about the tiny mischief nymph
fairy of the poem
to her each poems a new beginning
on a trail to wanderlust
an adventure taken to the edge
this fairy of the verse
fussing over every title
tweaking of the lines
adding just the right amount of dust
this fairy of the rhyme
only seen when she lets you in
as she flutters to and fro
taking you to the highest heights
fairy of the poem
Her distant voice is tender
falling all around
caught up in her splendor
not one single sound.
Needs are always aching
quaking in my heart
I’m hers for the taking
from the very start.
Never are we speaking
seeking loving ways
writing passions tweaking
love poems all my days.
Always am I thinking
sinking in the need
trying hard and inking
words into the deed.
Deep need ever creeping
seeping into me
always know I’m keeping
thoughts of you and me!
Helzabob had her own ways of tweaking spells a tiny bit
She unleased some monstrous concoctions on her sister.
Helzabor created creatures who danced, twirled, and sometimes bit.
One time they went after a stuck-up guy who insisted on “mister.”
Mister came down the hill and slid into the witch’s house.
Everyone ran for cover, especially rat, crow and mouse.
Helzabob with a diabolical smile met him at the door.
She zapped him into a new green creature forever more.
Hopscotch playing
Dragon slaying
Home alone staying
Child of a broken home
Liquor sneaking
***** peaking
Experimental tweaking
Adolescent always stoned
Cigarette smoking
Eating then choking
Closet toking
Average American whore
Cake baking
Zoloft taking
Dinner making
Wife and mother of 4
Empty nest
Did your best
Cheers to the rest
Menopause is the answer
Constantly prying
Endless crying
Slowly dying
Widowed grandmother with cancer
So strange.
On the tuning board I'm an F
and yet I feel quite sharp somehow.
Perhaps I need an adjustment.
Here.
or there.
A tweaking of metal wires
wrapped a little too tightly
and then I'll hit the perfect C.
So strange.
for somehow sharp still feels like me,
looks like me,
is like me.
Hmph.
I guess it's better to be sharp than flat,
and while I'm at it, better yet,
full with chords and rhythm too...
Maybe I should synchronize
and be a little more like you.
I must maintain I much prefer poems
which do amuse yet elucidate
with alliteration plus a fun pun
to enlighten and or educate
double meaning yes indeed
metaphorically speaking
a clever endeavour is all I need
for word-play tweaking
and no quibbling I refrain from reading
stream of consciousness scribbling
with neither rhyme nor reason
a smattering of words dribbling
altho' meaningless all the rage
scattering in wobbly lines
Pollock-like across the page
there was a young girl from Surrey
whose love life was all of a hurry
so went for sex advice
from a madam of vice
now can tease and tempt without worry
she has learnt the art of foreplay
hope he has the libido to stay
her tweaking and kisses
sure has no misses
has a smile on his face all day
his friends ask was it more than a kiss
said he can't disclose what it is
that has made his day
in a wonderful way
said his trembles and thrills were just bliss
