moment flower
the surrounding ground
shakes and rumbles
slowly and softly into a mound
though it forms without bumbles
as it sprouts fast and high
the enormous great white shape
vanishing all the blue sky
a site that will surly escape
for a moment-flower is born

MOSQUITO
SPLAYED--------she lies there silently
perfect ten------eternal landing
illustrated beauty
unexpected end
beautifully-------flesh stamped twice
shadowed by dust driven stripes
pristine----her profound extremities
divine destruction
painted picture
art fatality

alchemy of a poet
into the fire i leaped
with all my passion, fear and longing
melancholy provoke the flame
this timemy shattered heart would fall
for a commitment without embellishment
my dismember soul is released
intimate moments revealed
become more than my belief
these moments that had broken
futhermore had awoken
these fragments of my heart glown
a guiding light for others
and distinguised my very own
now with nothing at all to hide
into the fire i perch
for the well suited words
that i so viciously search
with all my passion, fear and longing
melancholy provoke the flame
this timemy shattered heart would fall
for a commitment without embellishment
my dismember soul is released
intimate moments revealed
become more than my belief
these moments that had broken
futhermore had awoken
these fragments of my heart glown
a guiding light for others
and distinguised my very own
now with nothing at all to hide
into the fire i perch
for the well suited words
that i so viciously search

moments contained by shattered silence
a gentle sweeping dust
caresses the remains
protuding the earths crust
grounds of yesteryears gains
the sun glisten upon the bone
there among the heat waves
where the once warrrior groans
close by rests - the other braves
500 years, still
western hemisphere pause
telltale of the kill
musket blast-----the cause
motion picture arrives
1500's the incas uprise
spanish brutal carnage drives
native empire----the prize
a gentle sweeping dust
caresses the remains
caresses the remains
protuding the earths crust
grounds of yesteryears gains
the sun glisten upon the bone
there among the heat waves
where the once warrrior groans
close by rests - the other braves
500 years, still
western hemisphere pause
telltale of the kill
musket blast-----the cause
motion picture arrives
1500's the incas uprise
spanish brutal carnage drives
native empire----the prize
a gentle sweeping dust
caresses the remains

Mother natures matine'e
acool gentle breeze
buttercups dance beneath the sun
repetitive swaying grass
richness of violets stand aside
in this moss beaten ground
a hawk cries in the distant
songbirds sing a stones throw
the art of technique
demonstrated
immense darting swallows
caper the skies
through and through
the smattering cloud
tickling dandelions
with every pass
before an onlooker.......
nonchalant surveillance
observing invisble blueprints
glimpse of deception forseen
seconds to minutes
mintues to...

poetic madman
fine point brushes
paint on canvas
delicately expressed
BRANDED PAGES
bold impression
TATTOOED PAPER
optical reflections
objectionable to some?
sensational to others?
serenade to oneself
masterpieces in place
now in despair
no one to express
feelings, phrases, emotions
critics of none
these wasted
printed thoughts
stay upon the desk.....in the dark

under the black mistle toe
thee early hours telegram
sentenced her to her knees
there her tattered heart would fall
to condemn her
under the mistle toe
for what she had heard
would paralyze a stone
for a quarter of a century son
broken heart of a year
comforted by laminated shades of black
and the last rites expression
the dust remains patiently
upon the oak cloaked chair
that stands before
the moth-eaten decorations
her incognito stare
upon his mystery silhouette
her energy drowns the flame
under the black...
