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.

Raptor royalty
freedom's avian emblem
feathered majesty

Senryu: My Kingdom for a Title
Muse on vacation
words hide in hibernation
oh come insight's thaw

Check Please!
Two gaze outside
watching raindrops
with window glass collide
silent island mid cacophonous café
reverie smashed by coffee, crème brûlée
cross candlelit table
eyes, hands, lips flirt
arms entwined
feed each other dessert

Senryu: Well That's Just Great!
Much too wide the net
bullet too fast to outrun
curse you omicron
Masked among the maskless
per force agoraphobic
still the piper's paid
Dearest omicron
I've been a good boy I have!
pray a light sentence

So l'm not perfect
There's bliss in imperfection

Senryu: Fleeting Comfort
Roll over searching
that bit of cold mattress
simple tingles found

Words, Balms or Daggers?
The smallest of words.
most concise phrases
whether solo or combined
are heaviest in responsibility,
consequence, or
irreparable ramifications defined
Freedom to live life
as one chooses
to assuage pain of injustice,
infinitesimally salve deep wounds
of grief by evil wrought
on jury’s pronouncement hinges
whether “guilty” or not.
Resolve and dedication
to “I will, “I do,”
at nuptial altar easily uttered
may build institutions
of wedded bliss...

Regularity's Price
Golden grain nuggets,
really ground up rocks,
made,somehow, edible.
Containing more fiber
then a cardboard box.
Purpose? Debatable.
Breakfast cereal? Maybe.
But shouldn’t be fed to baby
Perchance, as popcorn ceiling mix
Or non-skid paving material
But if you find
yourself in a bind,
plumbing problems
It will, most certainly, fix
And if it’s grapes or nuts you wanted,
you surely will be disappointed

Reaching down
barely digging
extracting handfuls
sheets of yellowest gold
five decades of Autumns
mining this claim
wholly uncontested
Unabashedly consorting
with all manner of rakes
eschewing cacophonies
of puffed up blowhards
Young miners, at times,
appear less enthusiastic
laboring in crisp Fall air
they'll better appreciate
the seasonal exercise
when catapulting
on to piles
of gathered gilt treasure
Quitting for the day
stowing tools
depositing the haul
soon to...

Senryu: Gone for a Curry
Swish, swish, swish; swish, swish
Flawless, high-arcing, flight plan
Steph's round-ball brilliance.

Quest for Elusive Happiness
Left alone, disregarded, shunned
once labeled the only one
verdant garden now fallow ground
ecstasy echoes cease to resound
Yearning for love from once dead lover
obfuscated desire made clear undercover
use subterfuge in lust-driven pursuit
release sensuous songs, take them off mute
seize ostensible amor verdadero
escape the tedious life straight and narrow
loose steel bond forged in devotion, tempered in resentment
forget heart, soul,...
