POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction Writing poetry is the catalyst in my quest for authenticity and the conduit through which I express my deepest thoughts and emotions.

Unfathomable
Vaccines?
They're for the weak-minded,
spineless wimps.
Mass hysteria
fomented by big-pharma.
Global pandemic?
Clearly, a leftist fairy story
like Peter Pan.
Besides, longevity
runs in my family.
Grandpa lived 104 years.
I'll admit,
I'm a tad needle-squeamish.
What's that?
What about my loved ones?
I have but one.
Oh and I'm a lucky son-of-a-gun
Just this morning
I walked 13 times
under a ladder,
on broken mirror shards,
whilst screaming,
At the top of my lung ...

Lexical Verity
Praise words
that In gentle whirlwind
your flawless figure encompass
cheeks caressing
supple lips hungrily press
fine, downy tendrils
on neck's nape electrifying
in ears, warm whispers
of true beauty testifying
dancing cross ravishing ridge
of soft exquisite shoulders
exciting-to-firm pink nipples
topping rarest of succulent breasts
each curve every syllable embraces
in blissful sanctuary of you-scented places.
each dew laced letter finds rest.

Raging Aging
For my mid age
I'm not too shabby
a few extra pounds
proach'n Sumo flabby
the big thin
begins tomorrow
of this I am resolute
till then, with sorrow
I'll shelve the Speedo swimsuit
Still a man of steel
with a pillow-soft feel
hey you, Father Time!
are you look'n to tussle?
'cause underneath
the fat hides serious muscle
how's about we engage
in a cage match, ten rounds
I'll knock you flat
KABAM! You'll hit the mat
so take that!
you cruel chronographer
Après la bataille
I Mr....

What is real, true love?
Does it burst in or sneak up?
By rules ungoverned

Hairesy
Dark brown mane speckled gray
each melanin depleted strand
not simply evincing age
but observable symbols,
medals of valor
awarded for perseverance
amid trials, pain, and grief
merit marks of intense ecstasy
every patch of silvery hair
containing wisdom
sage advice
born of and nurtured by
lived experiences

Senryu - Triptych: Going Absolutely Bananas
Green hands in tiers bunched
curved fingers reaching Sunward
tropic chandelier
Split, blended, or sliced
for sweet delights sacrificed
savor joy's flavor
By mere brown spots shunned
when spotted, sweet flavor peaks
prize the fruit not peel

Music Passion Ten
Bluegrass Roots and Country
Appalachian Summer Night
a front porch congregation
drinking moonshine get’n tight
on cigar box guitar someone strums
banjo lends its lively voice
effervescent fiddle joins
washtub bass and whiskey jug
In tandem mark the beat
washboard adds its joyful noise
singing songs of a sobering nature
of hard times been and coming
ever present death, old time religion
love’s conquest, evil’s defeat
t’was the place of Bluegrass birthing
where seed was planted and nurtured
I was to...
