Induced Coma
This rising
Medical emergency
Whole wild world
In an induced coma
Recovery slow
No life guaranteed
Walls of society
Torn down
Hidden disease
Spreading like a bush fire
Horizons changed forever
Mask or not to
That’s the question
Will create shortages
For those heroes
On bloody frontlines
Clapping sound
Revealing heartfelt gratitude
Could be humanity’s
Beyond that moon landing

Cosmic Culinary Chaos
in meteor field, adrift
inside, showing
no sign of elation,
a perturbed Sous-Chef,
job interview bound,
intended destination,
USS Ezra Pound.
He began to rant
the moment boarded
“What took you so long?”
Is my life not important?
I used to be Head Chef
at Crandooyars
on Bravo Bravo Alpha Seven
Where my Klingon cuisine
was awarded
four grunts and two stars.
Must I now cook
in the kitchen from hell
when I’ve just left heaven?”
All crew members,
with one voice could tell,
this is...

Exequies for a Bee
(twenty-eight of 30 - Official DUP NaPo/GloPoWrimo 2020)
Found a Bee last night
on its last leg
of its short existence.
Got me thinking. . .
a lone(r) individual
now no longer
pollinating his
surroundings, unable
to serve his Queen,
accepts his fate &
waits for the gate
to open.
This Bee lied sideways
barely moving
on my bedroom floor.
i would have set outside
but i knew he would not
survive, so i tried
to make his upcoming
demise
as comfortable as ...

Signs
Splitting hairs with dull knifes
dressed up in bad habits
life relegated to picture screens
unheard screams
darkened diners
beckoning candelabras and moonlit drives
no wax drips sealing secret treasure
grand Mal seizures
nor sacred visions
hands tied together
reckless, restless
begging for a night outside
I burned your picture last night
just to see you move
smoke illuminating
from those flashing signs
OPEN 24 HOURS
hidden behind the unlawful order
NO VACANCY
dressed up in bad habits
life relegated to picture screens
unheard screams
darkened diners
beckoning candelabras and moonlit drives
no wax drips sealing secret treasure
grand Mal seizures
nor sacred visions
hands tied together
reckless, restless
begging for a night outside
I burned your picture last night
just to see you move
smoke illuminating
from those flashing signs
OPEN 24 HOURS

Evil Blossoms
What I don’t understand
Answers something in me
And so I seek, walking
Feel nettles prick my skin
Hear hornets chastising
Menacing hovered ears
It’s irresistible
Because it’s contagious
I’ve always refused their
Magic gypsy potion
My body doesn’t fight
Does not forbid passage
Welcomes the sinister
Like beautiful bouquets
Indeed that’s how it looks
Both attracts and will kill
Like a lover possessed ...

Poetry flatline
No anguish over loss tonight -
life happens; sometimes sad, so what.
There's no parade of lingering hurts
to stoke fires of rhythmic resentment.
No awe-inspiring sight before me
to awaken spiritual rhymes.
No commentaries on my tongue
of friendship and its disappointments.
No nagging questions or angry rants
to encourage ink from my pen.
This rollercoaster has come full stop -
no up, down, forward or backward.
Just a sideways glance from outside my head
at a brain that is out of synapses.
The feelings and thoughts have all...

Love Seeps
There are kisses
That becomes perceived infinity
Love seeps into soul
Kindred spirits feeding on passion
Their fires burning forever
With the right ingredient
Everything is magic
Lovers finding emotional connection
Through sensual touch
Cherishing soft beating hearts
Intoxicated by moonlight
Drenched in existence
Chills running down spines
A new universe
Where skin finally merges
That becomes perceived infinity
Love seeps into soul
Kindred spirits feeding on passion
Their fires burning forever
With the right ingredient
Everything is magic
Lovers finding emotional connection
Through sensual touch
Cherishing soft beating hearts
Intoxicated by moonlight
Drenched in existence
Chills running down spines
A new universe
Where skin finally merges

War
Don’t ever fall upon your head,
Did all of you hear what I said?
Just one half? Oh that’s terrific,
Do I need to be specific?
It means that this includes your face,
Anywhere, hey there, any place!
I’ll talk till I’m blue if I do,
And that is the color you’ll be
If you fall on your head.
Green, purple and red,
I’ll throw in the black for a clue.
I’m saying you’re gonna be screwed.
There’s parts of you you never knew,
Which is bad when that’s where you land.
But if you faint from standing still...
Did all of you hear what I said?

1st Transudation
(twenty-seven of 30 - Official DUP NaPo/GloPoWrimo 2020)
i lightly knocked at
Hell’s front door
seeking relief from
Arizona desert’s floor
another summer
has awakened the sun
potential heat exhaustion
has now begun while
triple digit Fahrenheit’s
begin to soar and i
feel as though i’m
melting once more!
Reprieve will come
now and then
by way of a monsoon
three, 4 or more
bringing tepid rains
to a thirsty land as
lightning illuminates
the way!

Sunshine
There's a warmth you barely notice
slowly climbing up her way
the heart of life enduring
loving light you wish would stay
she lifts her head each morning
the songbird gift her tunes
moving forward in attraction
hints of glory inside the swoon
my mind most often elsewhere
in daze about the day
she rises without expectations
enlightening the proper stay
beauty can't describe her
always giving exact truths
in her I see a future
where nights of love do soothe
her fire red has...

The Messy Feeling
You are the morning light
Breaking through curtains
A bare footprint on new fallen snow
Raising messy feeling in my stomach
Sheer bliss for these tired eyes
Carry this heart let it breath your love
Feel heaven from an angel’s kiss
Touch me send those lovely shivers
Beautiful chaos and confusion
That permeates soul deep
Breaking through curtains
A bare footprint on new fallen snow
Raising messy feeling in my stomach
Sheer bliss for these tired eyes
Carry this heart let it breath your love
Feel heaven from an angel’s kiss
Touch me send those lovely shivers
Beautiful chaos and confusion
That permeates soul deep

All Work And No Place (Day 26)
I have been thinking about work;
weekends and public holidays give me the time to think
when I am not swamped
with the day to day;
that I do not like my work.
It seems to have me
as a robot dog with demands to jump through hoops
but due to a glitch in my programming,
a quirk in my nature,
is not always told which hoops they are
more prone to jump clumsily through
while quoting parts of 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' in binary.
I am a puzzle piece that just does not fit
left behind and ignored
not a footnote...
