Without Poems

A painting without a name

I'm unsure of an image popping up in my head 
A dot locates alongside a crowd, with a space reserve
Until now, of its decay from the fresh dark to pale light 
Which has been started  the image once  begun to alive

It's been never so sure of that the disparity remained 
As a balanced

Summer Night Without Your Spouse

       When the silver moon tangoes out, with a lyrical hum,
       And my heart beats like the gentlest drum.

       Then, does my warm breathing hearspeed,
        Oh, it is then, you,

Seventy Years Without a Whisker

I lived seventy years without having whiskers
but then one popped out of my chin
it was thick and long
tweezers bent when they tried to pluck it

the whisker laughed at my attempt at removal
he was tough and determined to remain in place
he has been imbedded in my chin for two years now
it will be three at the

Better Off Without Me

I’m a broken person in my heart and mind
My world been distorted there’s no reality 
No doctors can find a cure I cannot be saved
You should go you’re better off without me

I’m scared of myself and who I’ve become 
I’m called a danger to myself and to society 
Why are you here trying to love

Celebrating Christmas Without Going Broke

By Christmas Day each father
and mother, also known as Santa and Mrs. Claus,
should have fulfilled “Dear Santa” letters
and other wish lists. They overspend, but for a great cause!

Expensive foods, grandiose home improvements,
and decorations are added. Guests will be so impressed.
Bank balances shrink; credit cards get maxed out,
but—By George!—mom, dad, and kids will be well dressed.

I Can't Live Without You

I can't live without the oxygen I breathe
          I would die without this air in my lungs
I can't live without the water I need
          Oh for just one drop on my tongue
How did I make it this

Cities without water fountains and? 2

In California today, 2025, city managers, attorneys, engineering 
Work in an infrastructure of control without water fountains.
Micromanaged district supervision of States of legislature 
Troughing below the poverty lines as entrance and exit serve the wills inheriting the labor of "housing" "something" without competing.

Prediction of 24 hours, 7 days, is enough hearing of you 
Needn't be

Without you

The world is a bit colder
The street a bit emptier
Without your voice
Without your hand to hold.

How To Disappear Without Dying

Step one
Smile like stitches not for joy
Just tight enough to hold you in
The kind of smile that never aches
But keeps your mouth from spilling

Step two
Speak after everyone has left
Let words fall where no one looks
Your voice belongs to empty rooms
Where no one asks or stays too long

Step three
Move quiet through morning fog
Become the blur behind

The Electrician Without A License

There’s an  
Energy tag on my big toe 
“Zapped to death:” it says 
I’m a “John Doe” 
A lightening bolt 
Sent my soul a jolt 
Into the next dimension 
Permanently disabled and 
Unable to be grounded, you see 
Living life on the edge can be fatal 
I don’t even know who I am

A Journey Without A Goal

(“Rainbow Body” detail, 2018, original encaustic)

A Journey Without A Goal

The path to enlightenment is a wondrous 
And delightfully paradoxical thing!
It is complex and yet simple,
Endless and yet immediate.

The problem is it is never us who becomes enlightened,
Since enlightenment is a reunification
With what has never been divided,
And so the journey then becomes nothing but a dream.

What

When they failed black kids without homes

Her hair stood out
Reaching for the skies
Wishing on every star at night
Someone would hear her cries
Her need to have a life she doesn't just have to survive 

The chaos of hair confused
Unsure how to keep it or what to do
She is the only one in the room
That had hair that flew 
Just a child without
