Incomplete
No words or phrases on my palette
Adequately represent
The kaleidoscope of emotions, the colors
that this love of you splashes
on my soul
echoing ripples of sensation
throughout my body.
Yesterday you conjured even stronger feelings
That no art of mine can properly express.
A few pale attempts might say:
Grateful
Deep repeating love
Missing moments
Curious
Concern
Interested
Desirous
Passionate
Wary
Restrained

you are a cinematographer
this half-sown
papoose
you carry me through
without assumptions.
a scent of black tape
wrapping the belly
your flat-pressed
stamen sigh
rising from an anemone cup.
I would wear
your eye to the stream
and slip through the eels
and follow its path alongside,
as it curls through into another,
to the edge of the dam where
two swans foggy in net curtain,
their three cygnets
grey in duff down,
circle
and...

Jaded Masterpiece
We are each jaded puzzle pieces.
Individually, we make little sense.
We are not particularly stunning.
In fact, we are often quite ugly.
We appear as jagged splotches of color and haphazard shapes.
Until one fits into another.
Into another.
Collectively, we make a beautiful masterpiece.

Paris of the Plains
Kansas City had a rich jazz culture,
where there were snazzy venues
all over the city that displayed
open & welcoming marquee.
Let me stop
and rest a minute.
Kansas City's known
for many things.
12th Street & Vine
is one of them.
Even the Beatles recorded it.
And so we here in Kansas City,
our whole lives,
we all would have to endure it.
I drive & wind & wonder down
the Paseo Boulevard,

Untitled Words
I suggested
maybe making art
is making love...
Well then, I'm obviously
not an artist
he said
Then proceeded to
sing my heart
in arpeggios of red
and broad brush strokes of black,
Rhyming notes
with colours
in a furious dance
Until my fumbling words
suddenly fell into harmony
making sense
resonating
not alone

The eternal color palette of connected astral energies
To be a spec of stardust
upon which such force is cast;
painted primordial start
crisp, dynamic colors enforce the blast
Spread forth and s t r e t c h
brushed hands of certain hue
reflective introspection
of profound creative truth
'Tis shapely dance
astral curve-twisting to excite
awash in an abundance
this aura of omnipotent light
Dark sectors swell, expounding
celebrating love that'll set us free
shaded tones ebb and flow through time
accentuating...

Some Perverted Form of Art
I read an essay once
about a dog leashed to a public square
and starved
in some perverted form of art.
"But is it art?"
a crowd of dilettantes cried,
stroking their chins
and clutching their programmes,
as that good boy shivered
and turned his poor
and pleading eyes on them
in turn.
"Let's say it is"
a critic said.
"Here's my review:
the dog should be replaced
with something else.
I vote the artist."

Return of Box Head
You missed him
Right ?
New poets don't know
He runs this place
Mind control
A total misfit
Makes Beavis and Butthead look benign
Sexy as fuck too
Chicks really dig him
Trust me
Wait a minute
Don't trust me
I'm his creator
BIG LIKE
