Niagara Falls
the rocking horse straddles a nail
its time came and went
in trembles as did i
the springs that i care
for are the ones in my bed
and the ones that come after winter
the man bought a round-trip ticket
and a one-way ticket
take pictures of the barrel
trusting over Niagara Falls
yours are flowery secrets
and mine are still-life proclamations
both as real as smoke
and mine will hang in halls

A MAN TO HOLD
Our reality forbade me from kissing your lips
And stroking your hair with my fingertips.
All I could do was hold your hand
When I traveled the distance to a different land
Just to see you for a quick little hour
And I gladly took that power.
How I longed to know how you kissed
And a touch of a man, oh how I missed.
How much it pained me, you have no clue,
To not be able to cuddle up with you.
Sitting across from you, my mind slowly would drift away
And all we had for memories were conversations from day to day.

Desperate Need
You let them in
You opened your Door
Wide
Coz what they say
How they say it
The moves
That they make
That Convince You
They are Friends
As they Slowly Suck you Dry
Of Everything
That is You
In Your Desperate need
To have
Friends
And Now
You pay the Price
Always thinking about
Their Wellbeing
As yours
Slowly Decays
You opened your Door
Wide
Coz what they say
How they say it
The moves
That they make

They are Friends
As they Slowly Suck you Dry
Of Everything
That is You
In Your Desperate need

And Now

The End is Nigh.
A dystopian future is at our door
Facts on Facebook checked no more
Open the sewer let the clowns speak
Lies and deceipt will reach a new peak.
Orwell was prescient with the Ministry of Truth.
Bradbury knew the temperature at which books burned.
And Huxley foresaw a society off their tits on Soma, subdued, placated and duped.
The genies of Zuckerberg,Musk,Trump and countless others cannot be put back in the bottle.
Disinformation is the new truth.

Recapturing
Christmas has passed,
and the new year approaches.
I encroach upon you
with a belated text.
The pretext is the weather
to remind you
of everything we have been through.
The snow was our serenity.
Snowflakes fall, and I
want you to know that I walk
for blocks in the symphony
of the busy streets alone.
I have a bittersweet
but upbeat feeling reading your reply.
You have established roots
where it does not snow.
Still, I hope the fruits of your labor
are savored and receive water from the oasis.

I decided one fine day
To visit the faraway land of fae
I'd planned to go their on my own
My venture into this twilight zone
As a treat, instead of camping
I affoeded myself the luxury of glamping
I told of my plan with friends
And that's where i should of let it end
Then one suggested one misty day
Could they join me in the land of fae
I agreed it would perhaps be better, than alone
As we planned to enter the twilight zone
Then this person said would it be okay to bring a friend
So i adjusted the cost, equally to spend ...

Thoughts and Dreams
Land of thoughts and dreams
Descend into lies and thievery
Star spangled on my soul
Watch a deceptive devil
Orange and loud
Drowns out the truth
Playing the part of Patriot
Hugs the flag my dad stood for
As he is corporal bone spurs
Says studio 54 was his Vietnam
Spits on McCain an American Hero
I don’t get it what’s in it for them
He translates patriotism into cash green
Build the wall keep the Rapist out
Grab em by the pussy
They let you if your evil
Shell of a tough...

Preferring The Horn
The pauper porpoise poet
Was a very poor porpoise indeed
As she spent all of her lobster money
On copious ammounts of mead
She read her poems at open mics
But her words were all at sea
Apart from one fine night, she got it right
And flipped her flippers with glee!
Some thought she was a dolphin
Which would really piss her off
And one even called her "Flipper"
She told him to foff!
Yet she found him quite attractive
He was a swordfish, well endowed
And when she saw how 'sharp' he was
Their marriage was avowed ...

visiting my father
Visiting my father
I met my brother in the town where he was
on his way to see our father and wanted
me to tag along
He, our dad, lived in an old house and
surprised to see his youngest son also
He brought beer from the kitchen and
my brother and he spoke about labor
politics
I was at the time a communist and had
contempt for those not sharing my faith
After all, I had spent several days at
a hospital in Odessa, where doctors wore
tall white hats, a chef would envy
My father avoided looking my way
I sat...

Farewell
Farewell
I'm tired of Portugal
this small country, not bigger
than a hamlet in Spain
their worldview is what
is seen from an Olive cops
small-minded
and deceitful, bewildering
where the Arabic influence
lingers
decapitated by Christianity
I have family in Spain
who read Cervantes
I don't know why
it could be they are working-class
they value me as an elder
in their clan
I even have a brother
I have never met
he lives in Chicago
the whisper is he is a gangster
