Hollywood clowns
spend two-thirds of their lives
trying to make people laugh
but when laughter cools and makeup cracks
they get off on making people cry.
Cut out of black paper
Japanese
Thrown before a sky
Of night milk
Janitress of a
Lower house
One toothed,
Point hatted,
Flying in front of a
Victorian curtain
Two thirds storm,
One third dark.
if adams and eves be
hovels for souls
- and -
their bodies of some
thirty trillion cells
- then -
they average genes about
thirty five percent human
- meaning -
the adams and eves be as
two thirds earth eden garden
- soil -
mirroring all other life forms
seen in the earth eden mirror
- so that -
in caring for their own health
they be guard'ning the survival
- of earths -

What did you do to be white
Why does that make you always right
Born into privileged by race
The humanity you disgrace
Two thirds a human being by law
Jim Crow skirting its flaw
Civil Rights codified by statue
Voting rights gerrymander by venue
Prison filled with poor black men
No bail plea bargaining innocent condemn
A cigarette a bag of skedaddles
A Black Lives matter a riddle
Choked to death at the hands of the law
An evil heart the white mans flaw
good-bye
summer
see you
next year
your turn
autumn
bring your
cool breeze
gleaming
light frost
do your
magic
changing
leaves from
green to
golden
red and
purple
see them
cascade
leaving
bare limbs~~
mums and
pumpkins
brighten
porches
kids in
costumes
trick or
treating
special
Thursday
when we
gather
speak of
blessings
feast on
turkey
autumn
now is
two-thirds
over
soon we
will be
singing
carols
SEA
Water, very deep to immense depths, no sunlight pierces
down here – blackness.
Coming to the surface, sunshine sparkles magically,
a myriad of dancing points of light.
Sea monster curling in the rip tide, powerful muscles
gracefully propelling him seawards – for food.
Salt water covers so much, two thirds of the globe, all this wetness.
Drown if you breathe it, don’t you dare unless you’re a fool.
To be a fish, man enjoys the sea, diving, sailing
or simply watching.
