Reverberation
while not falling asleep
I made a sound map
of those clicks under the bed
and by cities:
platbands and bougainvillea
from Tegucigalpa
machine guns and spiders
from Tel Aviv
flush toilets and platypuses
in mogadishu
forests and automobiles
from Ouagadougou
pigeons and trawlers
by Ulan Bator
whales and household appliances
in Phnom Penh
giraffes and drums
in Maputo
kangaroos and books
from Antananarivo
camels and pyramids
from bangkok
bees and tractors

WAS MARCUS RIGHT?
Marcus Aurelius in an
ancient flow of rich
philosophical wisdom
said:
"It is disgraceful
for the soul
to give up
when the body
is still going
strong."
I choose to believe
Marcus was right.
That's why I
love meeting YOU
at the KISSING PLACE.

The Wait Alone.
The Dislocated Lips,
Spit the Blood Vessels,
At Risk,In A Subtle way.
Spit, @ The Dislocated Hips,
That Have Put On Weight,
The Dismissed,
State Of Shame,
Suspended Orchestration,
That Works Alone,
In Vain,
Remains Gained Weight.
Alone

Carry's The Weight Alone.

The Dislocated Lips,
Screams The Loudest,
In Vain.
Inventing Artistic Ways,
Of Losing Wait,
Wait

Share with you.
Causing pain and discomfort,
remaining,I share what I know.
It isn't t that much knowledge,
in my head,not educated.
But I'll gladly share whatever I know,with you.

So Much For It Being A Nude Beach
Jessica stripped down,
got into the water and
swam around to cool
off before she saw a crowd
on the beach almost secret.

No Choice
She is dripped
In aqua ink
Waiting for the quill
To inscribe with calligraphic
Letters etched with palpable emotions
I choose you way beyond
The moon light sky
And golden sunsets
I choose you for all you are
Seen and unseen
For your are a mystery
Floating on this earth
Pirouetting with grace
But with a mind of your own
Determined, standing tall
I choose you for I must confess
I have no choice at all .

A Call To The Reaper. A Reminder To My People.
Reaper come take me
but not too soon
because I love who I'm growing into
Yeah I misspell
and set stanzas askew
but I don't envy any of you
Because the words slip out
from under my fingernails
and my thumbs blaze their own trails
Living on uncommon hope
surviving on dimes
putting my life together three lines at a time
When everything is breaking
the simplest rhymes persist
I need you as much as you need this
And if you don't need this at all
I still need you to know
it's okay to...
