Presto
see the tables floating
no strings attached...
like a mannequin..presto
vanishing before your eyes
spectral locomotive rushing
through my vocal mind...
silver-blue...frozen in silence
standing outside in the cold
presto...I radiate more heat
than light.
I'm not one who believes in magic
sometimes I have second sight.
heard the thunder behind her eyes
with a wave of my magic wand
we'll disappear...
yes I've seen the candles floating ...

My Opinion
Americans are more concerned
about what people think
rather than being concerned
about what Americans do
or don’t do…

Deeper shades of read
each word becomes home
proven sanctuary
moored upon warmth that is you
call out to me— my other half
I'm listening
searching
where meeting between the lines
is bold discovery
that heartily welcome
arcs of pure incendiary imagination
exposing mind, body and soul
feel deep, in bold triumphant spirit
revel amongst pleasurable panacea
riding out as waves, crashing
marvel each page's turn
across a captivated yearn
carving...

Paper Architects
Trace index finger down my spine,
acknowledge every crease.
Unveiling secrets between the lines;
Through curiosity or disbelief.
Fingertips graze at delicate edges,
Ideas spill out, too big to withold.
Dog-eared pages mark the worthwhile pledges.
Notes in the margin trial stories untold.
Long nights deciphering their themes,
on a path where nothing seems to agree.
Are we authors of the same dream,
Or are you reading vicariously through me?

Beneath the Euphemistic Veil
Words can be tricky, shrouded in disguise,
Euphemisms dance before our very eyes.
Toilet paper's shift to bathroom tissue fair,
A subtle change, a whispered, nuanced prayer.
Sneakers transformed to runners on life's track,
Yet beneath the surface, secrets still they lack.
Old cars reborn as "used" with gentle grace,
In euphemistic cloak, they find a resting place.
Hospitals, where illness met its healing end,
Now wellness centers, where new hopes ascend.
Health professionals, in scrubs, they softly tread,

The first we take
And the last
It's a contradiction

Hymn to a Dying Artist
After writing a Decade, a gladness should pour
So I lift my heart with praise, although
I recall a thought of Kierkegaard,
Who said I’m bereft of weal and so
I hide behind a skilled conductor;
Life’s Master of the anguished allegro,
Embellishing my pain, like a wondrous score.
And while I journeyed, unabated,
Living with Death, Death every day,
Sleeping with all I’ve killed and hated,
The Spirit reassured me and His Voice would say,
“Give meaning to the Memorial you created,
For your Mansion of pain will ink the way ...

morning song
Morning song
it is six in the morning
I get down and move the car from
the place reserved for vans.
This the best of times cooling before the heat begins
only a few people out walking their dogs enjoying
the peace of a beginning.
I could have parked my car in the space between
two cars, but I lose my nerves, this after 60 years of driving.
In the night the wind blew hard from the sea
tiring itself out, and me too I hate the wind it takes my breath away
leaves me a husk falling asleep in front of the TV.

A Recital (seductive whispers)
in a room
full of
flickering candles
crackling
warm fire
two glasses
of sumptous
red wine
next to
a book of
Byron poems
he holds
her eyes
on his
as he
softly
recites
gentle
foreplay
for the mind
slow
burning
seduction
as the
moon
rises
nothing
will be
denied him
