Premium MemberThe Dinosaurs At Webb Dock


Early morning and the gantry cranes
at Webb Dock look like long necked
dinosaurs lining up to drink from the river - 
and the sky is aglow as it might have been
when tinged by the first hint of that asteroid 
slamming into Yucatan on the other side
of the world 66 million years ago.

This is 2025 and no

Premium MemberView Through the James Webb Telescope

Where the stars are born in a cosmic cloud,
There's searing heat in the coldness of space.
The sight of each star, just one of a crowd,
Adds to the presence of Heaven's good grace.
Distant, but clear, as it crosses the void,
It comes into being just like the sun.
We think of the White Dwarf, now long destroyed
And the

She wore thick leggings
our childhood polio albatross
mass Sabin vaccine sauce
body snatcher ritual
fixed beautiful legs.

(In early elementary school she wore braces most of the way through 6th grade. We all went to the nearby JHS to drink the approved Sabin vaccine. By 7th grade she had healed. She had beautiful, working legs.) She has recently, physically

James Webb Telescope

Will event of creation be revealed
By the James Webb telescope
Concentrating time
Like a kaleidescope?
Galaxy after Galaxy
Slowly being revealed.
Will the moment of Creation
Always remain concealed?
Will we ever see the glory
Of the birth of timespace,
Can James Webb ever show us
Creation taking place
Or will that event remain
Tantalisingly out of sight
So no Theory of Creation
Can ever be proved right?
Is the

A 2nd Poem About Joe Webb

My neighbor is a responsible drinker, he won't drink and drive.
If other people were as smart as him, many people would still be alive.
Joe will not drive a vehicle if he has been drinking.
That is responsible behavior and it's also good thinking.
If you're about to drink and drive, remember Joe because he's an inspiration.
Driving while

Like a Spiders Webb

Like a spiders Webb
You warp around me
Your body keeps me warm when it's cold out
I can feel your heart beating against mine
And I finally feel safe
I finally feel like my life is right
I don't wanna die anymore
I wanna live my life so I can spend it with you
You're like a spiders Webb
If I try to
