Poet's Wormy Tree
Ill Rational Warped By Walls Of Words Gone Bye
Like A Cyber Press Set To Impress As I Express
Upon A Mess Hall Of Minds Melted Mental Blind
Weirds Wired Well Inspired To Weave Wending Ways
For This My Kiss Upon Loose Lips Tongue Well Tipped
Rapier Wit Rappers Writ Byte And Bit Spite And Spit
For This I Lay It Down to Drown In Sound Set Surround

the past was a dream
The past is a dream
I'm going back to my village
in Mars, there will be flowers everywhere
welcoming me
“see what you have missed”: they say
moving into town heavy traffic, statues
of men who are forgotten, looking heroic
shamefully hidden by seagulls muck they
are no respectful of man’s endeavour.
The problem is I have been ensnared by
a woman I love, she likes to live in a town
near all amenities as they say.
I like to live with her forever.
So, the cabin in the dale walking among
trees with my faithful dog and...

Edith lived here
Edith Lived here
Black & white photo
A house where
Edith Piaf lived
Casting a long shadow
On a summer street.
Blank windows
The house is unpainted
As always
Edith has gone
Her voice lives on
She had no regrets.

Mood Swing Ep # 11: Off The Cuff...Straight To Print...Alcohol Induced
something new happened today
something brand new
it rained today...
and for the first time in my life
i was happy simply because it rained
not to be confused with glad
like'' glad it rained cuz it'll get rid of the snow''
no..no...no
something moved inside my chest
and is still moving cuz it's still raining
i can hear it beating its song
against the window pane [so cliche right?]
but tonight..it sounds like
the erratic beating of ancient drums...
hmmmm

We Write
Living out our dreams and fantasies, letting go of our pains and sufferings,
we write to make things seem right.

Poetry Is Everything
Poetry is like a language
we become familiar with
over time, letting words
emerge on paper and fill
the blank spaces, leaving
room for thoughts to
expand and blossom into
something beautiful and
sweet like when flowers
attract bees and poetry is
essential like the oxygen
we breathe in every
minute of every day, that
is what poetry is as we let
it take us to a place a lot
of us are calling home.

Poetry Is...
Poetry is language
unravelled, unfettered,
unfaltered, unwound,
poetry sees itself as all things
unbound
in reaching, teaching,
leaning toward the light
in guiding a promise to
garner insight,
poetry is letting go
of the you that everyone knows,
poetry is you unmasked,
from within your emerging past,
a full circle of finding yourself
ending where you began
writing your name for the
first time,
who knew you had volumes
hidden inside..

Dream 3-17-19
Dream 3-17-19
Our professor keeps the classroom
deliberately dark
so that with its Cathedral high ceiling
it will provide a church-like feeling
for us young poets to show respect
for the craft with sacred silence.
There is a projector machine to put up our work
that we especially want to share with the class.
But each time a young woman takes advantage
by placing her poetry directly into the machine
without waiting for the professor to do the honors.
Her poems are invariably about sex.
So after one...

It was during the Dawn
when yet again he affectionately whispered in my ear
"Bubble Brain"
I realized... without an 'us' there would be a lonely me.

The Great Sea
We’re all just looking for a simple escape
A way to get rid of the pain
Some way to flee this dreadful world
Yearning to be swept away by rain
We write these words, we make them rhyme
Our crying and our weeping of tears
We will always be bound though, you and I
We will come to learn this over the years
There’s no escape, there is no way
To get away from our demons, you see
We will forever own them and hone them
For they have led us to the great sea
The sea of darkness, the sea of emptiness
It’s the sea of...
