Imprisoned
I'm imprisoned
he makes me so angry.
My love beside me,
& my dog with a
mental disorder.
To be left alone
is worth a million bucks.
He knows I'm mean,
& likes to see that character.
So along with my love
and all that I knew of it,
my heart is inside
some enamored poem,
somewhere
it doesn't get broken.

After a lifetime of sought-after sleep.
I have the virtue of opium/
the rain falls in the middle
of the night/it expresses
like a sage-sing-song
who I am
in my dreams/cozy & warm/
I fall asleep with the grave diggers/
I think of nothing.

Philosopher's Stone
We all turn the
wheel of pain
not knowing
our own strength;
enslaved as the camel
that carries
a thirst for humanity
until the quell,
It breaks, and the passion
pours everywhere,
thus ensuring a heave
reaches the eternal children.

Human Condition
A good and thunderous
storm turns on the horizon,
rolling over the hills here in Missouri.
I just saw two sticks of lightning
dart-up and duel off quickly,
and then the harmony
in reverberating echo/
and sound of the water.
The rain rolls in, a flash back
to a herd of Buffalo with
thier heads howling,
coming in across the dead ages
through the winds.
I'm standing there,
under an eave,
where there's a rain barrel, waiting
collecting the hooves
beating in fast over...

A mistaken poem after the rain...
After the rain
had fell,
I saw diamonds
in the grass,
the still bare branches,
they were glistening,
the pebbles
wore frost on them,
the mud,
it was beautiful,
...it was all wet.

Life Flavored Notes
I wonder what I am supposed to be doing sometimes. It seems I'm always just waiting on the next amusement ride.
And when it comes along, I'll take my seat on it, and I'll see all the things outside that I'm missing, all going by in slow motion.
Never knowing the meaning, making little worlds complete, never changing anything, it seems I'm always missing out on something.
I like my new place, things are moving slowly here for me. I'm fixing things up, and down, and how I want them.
I had to leave my baby behind, and so its...

I like my new place, things are moving slowly here for me. I'm fixing things up, and down, and how I want them.
I had to leave my baby behind, and so its...

Driving Force of Change
People park on
Delaware St.;
the hell-no
reverse-angle change.
It's natty, and I was
never reared like that.
And the streetcar,
its always in my way.

Hundreds of crosses, hundreds and hundreds of them. .
I was taking a crew out for a dogcatch. That's where a train engine has stopped because the crew has reached thier driving limits, set by the government.
I bring in a fresh crew, and take the old one back home to the train yard. Train folk live in their own world, and they have thier own set language.
It was 2 in the morning, and we were headed to the Village of Birmingham cross. There was a train waiting there for us. A dogcatch is what you call it. We had a stop to make first behind the Ameristar.
The engineer said he had to grab...

The Nature of Dragons
More than dragons
under my bed
I hate to be in the cold,
and so I feed
the dragons, after all,
they're only dragons.
