A Barred Bard
A poet without a means to write
Is like a butterfly, without wings

Words on Fire
In a sweet flambé
heated words
are searing
The pan sets
flakes in flight
instantly to light
a fire bright
In ash below
my tree of life
is growing
Warfare’s unspent
munitions at
my rooted feet
I spread my roots
a shield for what’s
beneath them
So men can tread
the earth
safely above these
and in my garden
food is growing
My leaves above
with heat and light
by war torched night
By day sweet shade
yet unconsumed
heated words
are searing
The pan sets
flakes in flight
instantly to light
a fire bright
In ash below
my tree of life
is growing
Warfare’s unspent
munitions at
my rooted feet
I spread my roots
a shield for what’s
beneath them
So men can tread
the earth
safely above these
and in my garden
food is growing
My leaves above
with heat and light
by war torched night
By day sweet shade
yet unconsumed

After The Rhyme
Trying to write and nothing comes
I remember when it used to be fun
Lost in the rhyme for hours on end
Falling in love with every word penned
Sending stanzas back and forth
Trying to keep up for all I was worth
Loving poetry with all your heart
Pulling me in and making me a part
World stopping and standing still
Taking both the blue and the red pill
Two years gone in the blink of an eye
Making love to each other in sexy rhyme
It’s time now to put poems aside
We need more to be satisfied
Our words of...

Poetic Trinity (Collaboration with Timagination543)
Where in the world did they get all the words?
this inflammation of ink
that births from the womb
fat poem babies with more
wrinkles on their feet than broom straws.
Are their heads somehow bigger under
all their hair?
Do they have unique lenses on their eyes,
allowing them to see the world in different gradients, richer shades?
Is it something they do?
or is it something internal they bear?
Do they breathe different air?
I'll never know, I'll never see, anything
more than...

My Poems
Some critics say I compose good poems,
Others regard my work as nonsense
My poems can interest or bore you
It depends on how you view the words
I write about the past and the present
And sometimes I create fictional stories
I pen poesy and free verse to please myself
I never attempt to impress the readers
My poems contain sensitive and taboo subjects
If you’re a narrow-minded person,
Don’t comment on my compositions
I don’t take kindly to negative criticisms
I express myself through my writings
Read my poems with...

Poem I Was Going To Write
Remember...
The poem that I was going to write
The one I talked about late last night
The same one from the night before
It was really going to be great, I swore
Funny and clever and maybe sexy
Like a song that's really catchy
You'd read it over and over, I know
Like that poem from Edgar Allen Poe
A masterpiece, there is no doubt
Metaphors you'd have to figure out
And big words you've never seen
Like polytetrafluoroethylene
That's the coating on your frying pan
Your food won't stick, I understand
I'm not really sure...

Amongst the Sleepers and the Dead
Every star,
Nightly
Dancing upon
Every sea,
Both caressing
And
Crushing
Every shore
With juggernautical
Whimsy,
Forth and back,
Flying,
Falling,
Just like me
And the inconvenient tears
That you’d like
To ignore
I won't be ashamed,
Anymore,
By any means
Or
Anyone,
So,
Watch me burn and rise
And every bridge I lay to waste
Is weeping on a distant shore,
And everyone I disappoint
Is a hanging judge
In a kangaroo court
And everything...
Nightly
