MY NAME IS JUDE
My name is Jude,
from Cornwall's Bude.
Lifeboats I crewed.
I am a dude
who drinks things brewed,
and does go nude.
Not being rude;
in terms not crude,
I'm just no prude
in attitude
to clothes eschewed
in solitude,
where multitude
with mindsets lewd
do not intrude.
from Cornwall's Bude.
Lifeboats I crewed.
I am a dude
who drinks things brewed,
and does go nude.
Not being rude;
in terms not crude,
I'm just no prude
in attitude
to clothes eschewed
in solitude,
where multitude
with mindsets lewd
do not intrude.

She Said It!
Parched under the day's sun
my companions lingered on the insanity
of one too many mirages
set on a quest
by something the girl said
Ancient tales made it sound like
the Ark of the Covenant
leery was I with thoughts of Indiana Jones
but intrigue won out
with something the girl said
The old man just couldn't make it
parted with him in town
another of the party may never be found
after miles of sand and dirt displacement
enlivened by something the girl said
Burial tomb on the horizon
or so we thought at first view...

Practice
I'll never wish you Darkness
But I won't shine for you, either
Thought I was hangin on your words,
But I'm a Survivor
You were dropped before me;
Satisfying Reward
Practice making perfect
Paying a price I can't afford
Strength proven
I keep myself sated
I was grateful when you arrived
But you're not the reason I was waiting
But I won't shine for you, either
Thought I was hangin on your words,
But I'm a Survivor
You were dropped before me;
Satisfying Reward
Practice making perfect
Paying a price I can't afford
Strength proven
I keep myself sated
I was grateful when you arrived
But you're not the reason I was waiting

my flannel
the worn flannel that hangs from my shoulders
comfort fire desire liar
i bought it at my local thrift store
and someone had bought it before me
and decided to wear it, just as i do
my flannel has had a whole other life
past present future
oh my beautiful and nurturing flannel
you feel like a hug on a cold winter's night
you provide me sanctuary
from the anxiety that inflames me
thank...

Hollow
shallow
heart sinking depths below
I don’t know what to do with myself when you’re gone
my hands can’t hold a grip
my voice a tune
pleasure leaves me
Hollow
beating
faint retreat, be seated
collapsing, nothing without you, defeated
but then
your car pulls into the drive
I claw at the door like a lonely mutt
when you’re gone
I chew at the furniture
and scratch till I’m raw
then you return, keys jingling
I shake with excitement
Do you love me, master?

Delectable
Apples delicious
Bananas divine
Cantaloupes luscious
Dates dried so sublime
Elderberry? Say what?
Fig jam is so yummy
Grapes eaten till glut
Honeydew smacks funny
In a domesticated way
Jack fruit green or yellow
Kiwi so funny to say
Lemons lead, limes follow
Mangoes a romantic delight
Nectarines tart and juicy
Oranges a bad cold will fight
Peaches firm and sexy
Quince way too complex to eat
Raspberries rule
Strawberries with chocolate so sweet
Tangerine’s cool
Unless, of course, they’re sour ...

Der Ring des Nibelungen
Used plain 8.5" by 11" white paper. Pencil, black pen, soft white eraser, black and grey charcoal. Text written in Illustrator, using Font Algerian 36 point... The image is that of Brünnhilde, and Wotan... Wotan being shaded in the background with his spear, as Brünnhilde, the Valkyrie, in the light is up front:
`~,,~`
Woe unto you, Brave Wotan,
The Father of Wars
On the day of reckoning,
The all-powerful ring is now cursed
The War against Wälsung
From Fricka thyne wife
Your beloved children
...
