Abature leads deep
Abditive road very grooved
Hard to enter in...

melange of bright colors
makes maple majestic.
most regal, it stands proud.
maroon, brown and orange,
make a kaleidoscope.
mighty grows its grooved trunk
magnificence of Fall.

All souls wish for a chance to feel an expanse,

Like capitating buzz-rushes felt through dance.
 
This is what soars in my blood and others, too,

and why I jive at home with twirl-grooved ado.

Two 
large bells
float silently
in the still 
blue sky

Stoical
inscrutable
gravity-defying
silver grooved spheres 
quietly reflecting on
the serenely 
vacant landscape

The visitors 
don't belong
yet they 
arrived to 
defy our certainty

I leant to the left
I bent to the right
I fell to a funky beat
Dancing Psydways last night 

I grooved to the left
I moved to the right
I drowned in good vibes
Swimming Psydways last night

I slid to the left
I slide to the right
I died on the dance floor
Loving Psydways last night...

What if it were only seven?
Or five?
Are the rules so strict in heaven?
Alive
sparked with energetic jive
tradition grooved in breast-fed mood
believing not that bucks are food
can cause a soul to wonder.
The soul pursues that which is good
and doesn't peacock squander.

Workin' on it...

today my darling we were in flight
somewhere in rome 
we flew through the night
all our faces cover we couldn't see 
i however invisioned your lovely face
when the covers were removed
the silence sounded my soul grooved 
this place of peace the breeze of feist
we were led to mary's bed
the mother of christ...

From deep inside me there wells up the desire
I can feel a poem coming into my mind
It escapes the ruts so deeply grooved in my brain
It wants to be written down for others to read


From my poem "The Desire"..First Stanza

Blossoms like orchids, waxy white
Waiting for pollen's lore
Producing those bean pods purple
Chocolate treats galore

Green, yellow, red, purple grooved pods
Ebony dark the seeds
Bitter the natural flavor
Desire has acquired a need

Planted 'neath fine cacao tree
In death feast 'pon dark seeds
Bitter the pulp very toxic
Theobromine just feed...

punctured passion plucked
gaunt confetti crunched
perforating porous pulps
oozing glitches gulped
cozy contractions cupped
lanky liquid's lust

eerie efforts etched
pompous platter's crest
sucking salient stress

gullible groom grooved
hoisted passion puked
bride trust bruised

meagre honeymoon mocked
sassy strife stocked.

Grooved lips
Be still my heart 
Full and waiting 
For when the time departs
We two shall share 
In torrid passion
Brought forth by a glare 
That tells me so 
Invited in trance
And woe 
If you can’t reach 
My impatience wish 
Don’t breach 
The moment that speaks 
From 
Out of my cheeks 
A desire forthcoming 
That is true adored 
For I shall fade 
By the beat of the drumming...

Sang that Song Boy
Like there ain’t nothin’ wrong Boy
Because for so long Boy
I ain’t felt a tune

It’s been a long time, Boy, since I grooved
It’s been a long time, Boy,  since I moved
And I don’ know what I am gonna do, Boy, 
If I don’t get the chance, 
Again
To kick up my heel and jam

And when you sang, Boy,
Make it short and sweet
Just give me enough to flip 
On my feet
Because I was born to dance
And you were born to sing
			with me....

I told myself just one—
two, max.
But you were hot, sugar-laced,
pressed into shape
some ancient, grooved machinery
I’ve never been strong enough to resist.

I knew better.
Knew how this ends:
oily regret
bubbling just beneath the pleasure.
Still, I bit down
until I was dizzy
with want
and half-cracked sweetness.

Now I’m sick
on everything I swallowed
pretending it was worth it.

And still—I’d do it again
if you were warm,
and near,
and looking....
