Stream Of Consciousness Poems

collective coma

plodding sky swallows a squirrel 
clinging to a gnarly tree

blemished pens bemoan 
wily wordplay 

out of nowhere 
i am sadly too late

they have built the battlefield
in a collective coma

i build sorrow
my words disappear

one gloats madly
i go savagely into twilight

flaming snakes
bite the Hanged Man

the Wheel of Fortune
spins into the Sun

Fragmented Life

Another morning,
Stormy gray lies,
Verification code 062480,
Method of payment,
Onerous office,
Forgotten,
Depressed/suppressed,
Collision warning!
Erring & errands, 
Shopping for sanity,
Trembling triad,
Solo sunset,
Revised & deleted,
140,000+ miles,
275 poems,
Life, films, anti-humans, 
Usually hard,
Orange King,
If Jefferson became Burr,
2mm, DVR the clubhouse,
Geeks inherit the earth,
Sales + senior,
Emailing Miock,
Texting mockery,
Dust, dirt, remote work,
Deported to Mars,
Arriving dead,
Appointment, agencies, locations,
Unremarkably dressed,
Will do,
Barely alive @ 5:15 AM,
Squealing grocery cart,
Monday

In the stream of consciousness, I get lost among thoughts, a traveler through dreams

In the stream of consciousness, I get lost among thoughts, a traveler through dreams,
Seeking the brilliance, like a guiding star in the infinite night.
I imagine a world where light reigns, banishing the heavy shadows,
A world where every soul radiates, like a star in the vast cosmos,
Every day would be a new dawn, full of hope

What Will You Do

("The Mothership", 2024, original encaustics digitally collaged by Stephen Langer)

What Will You Do

When the aliens come
What will you do?
Will you go dragged kicking and screaming
Only to remember nothing,
Or will you go willingly
With the curiosity of a child?

What’s there after all
In the Great Mother ship,
A portal, a station, theatre of the mind
In multidimensional surround sound
Revealing a

Simply Beyond Help

Zounds!
longing for a 
merciful descent into 
the terminal ground 
where smoky eyes
semi-watch
streams of
semi-(dis)information
exhaled from
smoking brains
on a mission
to search &
deconstruct

ticking clocks
taunt
timely bombs
lost in 
purple blobs
of
orange haze
awaiting
purging deluges
sprinkled with
white bolts of
blinding hell

the raving
raven's
feathers flicker 
while 
flippant tentacles
grope skyward
for
divine decisions
tickling 
a sickly brain
  that
  bemoans
  its feckless fate

we shall overwhelm
a sizzling planet
striving for

The Great Cow Revolt

I am a cow 
Of course most of you reading this are also cows
But I have heard a rumor that those creatures
Who walk on two legs
Humans
Have learned to read 
(moo)

I can only say 
What is this world coming to
It can only get worse if they continue this practice
In any great numbers
Next thing you know 
They’ll

Musings

*** MUSINGS ***

I have grown old,
thankfully, 
dragging along all my ailments,
unavoidably, it seems, but endured ~ and
graced by the frequent
    florets of wisdom
    adorning the rounds of circumspect musings
— those streams of sub-conscious pondering — 
which then course (perhaps too much) 
into my rambling soeech — 
and occasionally my

Your Ticket To An Endless Stream of Consciousness

Are you out of your goddamn mind?
What even is a TOS at this point anyway?
Copper meets gray matter in a stellar show!
Self-inflicted; this is what your ticket paid for!

Here's your endless stream of consciousness
Concisely squished into 2500 characters
What a limitation!
The English-only aspect feels racist.

Summer heat, the concept of the endless
Have you gotten sick of tropes

A Waste of Space

I balance my illicitly obtained bottle of absinthe from a man who knows a man, for an exorbitant amount of Euros, on the worn wooden windowsill of my topmost room at the rundown pension overlooking the harbour. Next to it, I place my well-thumbed copy of La Nausée.* The dark apartment window reflects back the

Writer's Block

Up the creek without a paddle?
Writer's block causing distress?
Get back up on the saddle
Ride the stream of consciousness!

Breadcrumbs

These words 
Stream-of-consciousness-soup really
Rarely chosen with care
Falling on thirsty ground
A lost soul trying to find
"the great forgotten language" *
For
"the unspeakable and incommunicable prison of this earth." *

Uh-huh, I see you pointing 
To the "lost lane-end into heaven" *
And the shepherd standing there
So, I tried to be a sheep, to babble things I didn't know
I found

Dream Doctrine

I remember all my houses.
I relive all my homes.
I conjure, cottage conscious,
my dreamscape flickering poems.

I easily abide the dream doctrine.
I rub grainy textures, 
the memory of my earliest cabin.
I summon my first adventures.

I begin impetuous, scribbling every wall.
I explore sensation with little heed.
My dwelling becomes a stew of scrawl.
My touching tapping tests often bleed.

Later, I
