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.
Senryu Triptych - Ponder 3
After years training
I have achieved pro status
gold-medal gluttony
Homework aversion
dulls benefic impulses
no work no reward
Epiphanic thought
must eat right and exercise
DING, stop the presses!

Quit blues rumspringa

Slightly Scorched, Still Coping
Glistening with sweat
by extreme heat exhausted
I approach the window
between hell and paradise.
Angel of mercy
peers through the triple panes.
I pick up the phone handset…
she says "no need,
I hear your request"
Asking for my full name,
my date of birth,
petition validated
Angelic voice names the price.
Out from below the window
a heavenly portal opens.
Blessed cold air
caresses Sun-baked face and arms.
My debit card placed
in the silver drawer
pays my indulgence

Home
My place is no showplace
replete with fragile
dust magnets,
museum piece furnishings encircled
by invisible red velvet ropes
be my comfortable guest
lay about on the sofas
walk hither and thither
wearing shoes or not
no room verboten
no carpet reserved
for special occasions
clothing, while not
completely optional,
is by no dress code bound
so, let your hair down
or up, or cue ball shaven
you'll be not judged
it's a be-yourself haven.

Passion's Cause and Effect
Proceleusmatic strains
of ecstasy’s harmonious crescendo,
enraptured, spellbinding moans
Incite desperate, hungry kisses

Where Flora, Fauna And Beneficent Humans Gather Part 3
Look! Here come the marching bands
requisite element of a proper parade
rhythmic, harmonious nomads of music
representing the college championship combatants, others summoned
by special invitation
high schools from across nation,
and far flung countries
all high-stepping to the drum beat
in perfect synchronization
presenting unique orchestrations
of lively tunes composed
perhaps by Sousa,
Queen, or Kool & The Gang
Mire los jinetes a caballo
prancing horses thrill the crowd
Andalusians and other breeds
their...

Where Flora, Fauna And Beneficent Humans Gather - Part 2
Armada of kaleidoscopic land vessels
ephemeral flourishing flotilla
constructed, garnished with all natural material from all around the world
grain, grasses, seeds, and flowers
romantic, fantastical, peaceful, exciting mobile dioramas
with invisible conveyance
perhaps a pirate ship with jolly buccaneer crew
with rice paper sails, hemp rigging,
a cannon made black with poppy seeds, riding pampas grass waves
maybe a princess in her palace
with royal gardens of roses, carnations, and chrysanthemums
with a wooing prince astride a...

Where Flora, Fauna And Beneficent Humans Gather - Part 1
Since childhood
one event has brightened
every New Years Day
a glorious morning parade
from traditionally sunny
Pasadena, California relayed
watched in robe, slippers, and p-jays
the Tournament of Roses
heralding a championship college Football game
rarely watched by my kin
unless dad’s school was playing therein
Unlike the more commercial NYC
cartoon ballooned cavalcade
marched on Thanksgiving day
that’s become one big advertisement
for the latest plays on Broadway
the variegated, festive floats
that...
