Poet Introduction
Every day I have the same argument in my head. The little devil sitting on my shoulder does this wild end zone dance when he wins, the angel on the other shoulder just gives a little prayer, so sometimes I go with the devil just to see the dance.

Beggar
Begging on street corners
borrowing with greed
pockets turned inside out
skin crawling with need
lust, avarice, and hate
his daily bread
the world owes him more
so he takes what he's due
sacrificing humanity
on the alter of his desires
no deals to be struck
no bargains can be made
to fill his empty cup
and ease his...

the path
unheard music whispering
a floating ribbon of gossamer
shimmering and surreal
possessed of ghostly illumination
a path of deadly peril
the sky a pinwheel
a kaleidoscope of color
endlessly shifting
for all eternity
in a war between dark and light
visible for those with strength to see
and dare to walk this path
to stand naked before the universe
cold and alone
as chaos rules the heavens
for most mere setting forth
to quell quaking limbs
to will the body movement ...

Worshipping death
polluting the air
the sea
our souls
never thinking but with greed
personal gratification becomes a creed
the cancer is our self perpetuating need
our egos reign supreme
living in our manufactured world
destroying our humanity
with our narcissistic minds
seeking our annihilation
in a world gone blind
we light the match
just to watch the world burn
oh how we worship death ...

Heart
With all my heart
I breath life into words
the words into fire
the fire into creation
but the words are just words
using allegory and metaphor
just markings on paper
that cannot ignite my soul
the fire within me
lays dormant smoldering
waiting for a muse
to spark embers into flame
but why should I need a muse
to complete my soul ...

Be real
The world is fake
Fake spiritual guides
fake yogis
fake shamans
fake religions
fake hate
fake oppression
fake offense
fake news
fake politicians
fake money
fake panic
fake cures
I am so tired of fake
Live your life with meaning
become a living prayer
write poetry
worship humanity
Be real.

To Be human
Burn it, tear it down, smash it all,
throw bricks, set fires,
leave nothing standing
I am not a Grecian statue,
topple the dais you've set me on.
I am not a guiding flame,
You cannot caress fire
or make love to stone.
I am crass, I am human
I will destroy the images in your mind
that makes you think I'm special
Humans make love
not art or spirits
Remove the chains you've placed on...
throw bricks, set fires,
leave nothing standing
I am not a Grecian statue,
topple the dais you've set me on.
I am not a guiding flame,

or make love to stone.

I will destroy the images in your mind

A self made man
I
I am...
I am alone
deaf and blind and mute
I create
eyes to see the cosmic dance
ears to hear their song
lips to kiss the world into being
and a heart to feel ...
everything
to laugh and cry
at the beauty of creation
I am...
alone
I create Eve
a being of pure energy
I create my soul
a home for Eve when she tires
I create night ...
I am...

Arsonist
So carefully she works
A frown of concentration covering the sky
Layering the kindling just so
Sticks then logs stacked with utmost care
A pyre to warm her hands in a frozen world
A flint emerges and is struck with razor sharp wit
A small, shy smile as the kindling begins to glow
Oh so gently does she breath this fire to life
Coaxing, willing, pleading that the spark to hold
A grin of pure mirth as the kindling bursts into flame
A laugh of elation as the fire blazes
...
