We cured death on a Tuesday,

No uncertain terms -Simply confounding-

Harsh asymmetrical contour following dislocated noncontextual departure.
Roaming, haphazardly choreographed with precise misaligned determination.
Mindfully staggering indistinguishable purpose, consistently in linear circumnavigation.
A matter of process, a state of perpetual traversal, saves from permanence.
The ad infinitum of specificity is quantum, the superposition allowing consistent continuity while indelibly transposing by observance.

a cosmic sonnet

If fusty galaxies twirl like Shakespearian poetry,
is astrology a tragedy or a comedy?

Are there clusters of uppercase in outer space,
the remnants of metaphors that broke up like meteors?

Coming To Terms

Heed this call, my son, for my heavenly realm awaits
Familiar faces wait patiently beyond the gates
You stated proudly that you've lived your dream
Your wife was your river, and children your stream

Willing to give anything to remain in your skin
I shall bless you now with my ethereal

Heavenly Terms

Owing a debt
you can never repay
Beatitudes leveraged
salvation in play

Moments beholden
to all that’s to come
Providence calling
in voices unsung

Eternally liable
the invoice sublime

The wings of an angel
the wings of a dove
In debt to forgiveness
—absolved from above

A Political Crisis In Avian Terms

Richi, Liz and Boris,
which one will the fountain bless?
What wise owl flies to our aid
and pulls us from this mess?
Vultures make lazy circles

Maybe they won't say boo to a goose
or are they planning when to swoop?

Because women will not call it quits

And its driving him out of his wits!

masks so he won't be able to 
deliver any presents this year

But he told me to tell

Coming To Terms With Reality

He disappeared without a word.
There was no writing on the wall
to let her know what to expect.
Was she naïve and blind to all!

Her expectations drowned in tears.
A thousand thoughts her mind assailed. 
The world around her crumbled down
Was she to blame? Where had she failed?

Confused emotions left her nights

Don’t touch my heart, don’t touch my lips, 
Don’t touch my soul, don’t touch my hips,
Just leave my body parts alone,
Please only touch my funny bone.
