Poet Introduction
I am an Office Assistant with a poet's soul... sometimes I wonder how he is doing without it.
of many things, Murphy holds sway (SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1995)
of many things, Murphy holds sway
a paycheck is delayed, a weekend passes
bills hit the bank, I am dismayed
time passes
.
I dance in the dance of time
(season passes)
working in the sun and wind
(the mortar must go through)
finally back online, my soul is freed

Daylight toil (SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1995)
I help to build houses strong against the elements
of brick, block and mortar, it's outer shell is made
water sand and a bag of powder, repeat.

Beginnings (Monday, 23 October 1995)
A life to live,
a time for hope
happiness and joy
look to the world
see the sights
let not the modern veil dull your eyes
'tis indeed a time of dreams, life
.
--------------------for a friend and her new child

Slow Dancer on the River (Poem... Free Form?) (Wed, 18 October 1995)
Slow dancer on the river
quiet sounds of classical music playing
narrative half heard
-
I think of the reclaimed swampland
passing by, covered in mans dreams
and dashed hopes, to the future
-
sitting at the table, eating,
I ponder mans inventiveness as
passengers and military men fly over head
going on their way
-
I look across the table to see my
grandmother, mother and sister
enjoying some time on the river

War Games (WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1995)
Doom II?
Grandest Fleet
VGA Planets
.
I play the games of war
so I don't take it to small scale reality
knowing all the time that only bytes
are lost to my rage, hopelessness

Chaos Reigns upon the hill (Wednesday, 18 October 1995)
Chaos Reigns upon the hill
where has sanity gone?
Was it evaporated by the DC sun
was it floated away by the rain?
is it time to move them to Cheyenne?
(oh no I did it again, politics)

I am a rock in the stream of chaos (Wednesday, 18 October 1995)
I am a rock in the stream of chaos,
Things happen, and flow around me,
Leaving me unchanged, unbowed

skimming the surface of "reality" (Friday, 6 October 1995)
skimming the surface of "reality"
watching time pass by on the wings of vultures
fleeting (tho I don't begrudge) the year nears its end
.
"reality" is a silent hell,
where song and sound are dulled by yells,
red rage, and lack of hope
.
shielded from reality
I try to find a doorway,
and force my way in
.
I look (farther than my eyes can reach)
homeward to the mountains
back to where I felt I could touch the god
.
my life is my friends online

moonlight and fireside (Thursday, 14 September 1995)
I peer into the night
wonderingly searching for
things beyond the edge.
.
moonlight and fireside,
songs and stories beyond compare
soon the sun will intrude.
.
alone I am, in this grand world
where the sun does not shine
nor light of day intrude
.
with sadness I see the dawn begin,
the sun rising on towards noon
another day pass, and night begins

in all my travels, (military family) there have been 2 stable things in my life. Colorado (where my mom is from) my rock of stability, and Georgia (where my dad is from) the proverbial Hot place
(so I've been between a Rock and a Hot place, come on, groan)

Colorado (Wednesday, 20 September 1995)
Best wishes to the one moving to my home,
(the land, it is a good one)
The trees, the sky, the mountains
the roads to get lost on
(and then to find your way again)
