I hope it is not too soon that i too
Am welcomed home
An inkwell cupcake if you please.
Frost it with adverbs.
Sprinkle it with adjectives.
Don’t be stingy.
You can add more.
Make it glitter.
Make it pop!
Startle yourself.
Bake it whatever degree
Coleridge, Whitman, Thoreau and Poe would have used.

'Leaves of Grass&Song of Myself'

Walt Whitman junior,so sensual
with poems&essays so influential
Transcendental writer&realist
with verse libre did insist
He celebrated America and himself
Keeping his face always towards sunshine
Seeing, hearing, feeling
All people, all races, all religions
Living a life,when every moment
Of light and dark was miracle
Singing about himself, singing about America
Which was the greatest poem for him
and I know
or
I guess
it maybe
that
I am
to be
pleased
with thee:
my love
it shall
be you
out of all
the earth:
come..
but not here
not there
but
for ever
&
through
all of time..
be
mine
A phrasis inspired by Whitman phrases the Song of Myself
The Chosen
Miracle Man Thoughts
12-25-2021
Year 2021, and Christmas Day,
my awaking thoughts are frozen.
Not on gifts or Santa’s sleigh,
my musings rest on the chosen.
Happy Birthday Jesus!
“The gift is to the giver, it comes back most to him.”
Walt Whitman
Heroic spirit,
fervent soul,
wild river conscious
that fulilled the sea of liquid ideas...
You were further than a hero,
you were a poet, you were a man
bigger than the mountain
higher than the space..
you are
Walt Whitman poetry.. !
After dispossession,
collecting the dolls-
dusting them off.
Who was watching
you, dousing yourself
to give a political statement ?
Cutting the leaves
of grass, I open
the book of Walt Whitman.
This was a targeted
killing. I will not join
the funeral procession.
A mistaken lull.
One day I will-
shoot endlessly.
