POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am not a poet. Words have expressed themselves through me all my life but in an organic way. They are telling me something about the connectivity of language and consciousness that may not mean anything to anybody else.
In As Quick As
Flashback
I've died a hundred thousand deaths
Which is why I fear it
Slow and painful
Flash points
Stabbed and starved
Short breaths
Quick flash
As I live it
The transition
Is nothing to something
Beautiful
Flash forward
When it is meaningful
To the universal flow
From which we all grow
Flowers
Upon myself
Flash cards
Where there is nothing to hide
The only thing left
Is for me to decide
What flashed through my mind
Has to be cruel
To be kind

Blight
Tonight
I will go out
Of sight
Just letting you know
Top shelf to the right
Of my fascist language
Some see as blight
Due to my type
Of white
So I show them the skin of my teeth
And remind them of their savage beast
Over a beer or two
Where we laugh at each other
All brothers
Under the shun
Clicking heals together
Once we were done
We enjoyed each other's company
So much fun
That I fell off the ledge
Of looking
I will go out
Of sight
Just letting you know
Top shelf to the right
Of my fascist language
Some see as blight
Due to my type

And remind them of their savage beast

Where we laugh at each other
All brothers

Clicking heals together

We enjoyed each other's company
So much fun
That I fell off the ledge

Original thought
Ought
To start from naught
Working backwards
Finding no original thought
Consternation
Brought all thought
Back again
With memory sieves
Slipping and sifting
Shifting
Fast forward
Changing gears
Giving itself
Something to think about

A Shot In The Dark
One time
In Africa
Hunting in the bush
A night hunt
Where it was my turn
To shoot the prey
As it would make a man of me
They would say
The hare in the spotlight
Couldn't agree less
Neither did I
But I digress
So I shot high
In order to miss
Upon hearing the shot
The hare jumped
Into the mist
Catching the bullet
Crisp and clean
This is where we had
From the start
Our one true bond
Our heart to heart

Blink
I'm real interested
In how animals think
How plants communicate
Why I drink
What motivates ants
To seek higher ground
Months before
A rainstorm
I'd love to know
About planets that orbit
In or out of control
To my wit's end
Where
Messages send
Insanity
To some creator
If there are answers
What are the questions
For all intention
Existence
Avoids
Any mention
While tantalizing
With some salvation
I can see it from here
But
I can't feel it

Last Round
You can give me a leg up
A leg over
While pulling my leg
Show me
An empty leg
A hollow peg
I will not beg
For an arm
As I mean you no harm
While cocking a leg
I will be your sex on legs
Every which way
I will pull it
While you stretch it
Out from here
As your tales between
Significant others
Can shake the legs off of you
On your last leg
Leaving nothing
To stand on
A leg over
While pulling my leg
Show me
An empty leg
A hollow peg
I will not beg
For an arm
As I mean you no harm
While cocking a leg
I will be your sex on legs
Every which way
I will pull it
While you stretch it
Out from here

On your last leg

Blank
White space
People sheeple
Cringe in
Fear and doubt
Regarding
What the future is all about
But you can't survive
By killing
Anyone else living
Under the Sun
Or skies above
The bottom line
Is all about love
Which is where I can take it
From here

Bested
I'm so glad
I can't preach to my kids
As they have rejected
Everything
I've inspected
Right or wrong
They have injected
Their own perspective
Which gets on my nerves a bit
Simply because
I'm always right
About everything
Don't get me wrong
I don't mean to sound high and mighty
But when it comes down to truth
And facts
I'm so close
You can't see me looking
Unless
You are vested
Where my heart remains
Rested
I can't preach to my kids

Fit Start
All bets are off
Discarded on the floor
Among the clothes you wore
Now you stand under
My fixated stare
Nude
Naked
Bare
Your long hair flows
Over your shoulders
Yes, I'm a breast man
And have you on camera
Turn around for me
Bend over
Part those perky cheeks
Show me your moisture
Until your slit fits my peek
I will take you in hand
And have my way with you
Don't call me daddy
I'm worse than that
You are my prisoner
A pet at best
To be collared and leashed
With all the rest ...

Turn About
Don't bring me back
With your science and technology
I prefer extinction
To your distinction
Based upon your predilection
To be rich and famous
Seeking immortality
I will not be your Tasmanian tiger
Returned from the dead
My facsimile
Won't fit
In your Morgellon head
There will always be something missing
In my singular dread
Like my own social structure
As you raise me in confines
You will never describe what
Undermines
My volcanic explosion
Fire and frenzy
Sticks and stones
To become...

There you have it
A Sun up while lying in bed
Drowsy
I must get up
It's not my fault that I blame myself
Lousy
I can't get you
Out of my head
For Christ's sake
To sum up
We had a great time last night
Never to see each other again
I knew it as your tits brushed my lips
Our thoughts bristled
Painting pictures
Pix-elated
Out of here nows
Mother of God fucks
Holy cows
So goodbye forever
I just screwed myself
On your canvass
Whatever detail means
You created
Artwork sex
