This Is What I Would Like To See Happening
I really do
wish they open the shopping
malls back up like the old days.

Texaco
I had a dream the other night
in high dynamic range,
with credit fonts in neon light
and skies most passing strange.
On cars the credits wrote themselves
but only on the doors,
like invisibility elves
composing Celtic scores!
But though the hues were rich and deep
I heard no music there
where trash was stacked up in a heap
and filth hung in the air.
Twere no Eire of old, ya see,
but the U. S. Of A.
Where beauty least of all was free
In a new Chevrolet.

Unloved child
There's a point in time
when ticking dies
and all that's left
is the slow exhaled breath
pregnant with with unspoken thoughts
unwillingly giving birth
to words no one could love
raping the mind
with jealousy and anger
a bastard child born in darkness
a horned demon
from logic's womb
bald of empathy and understanding
crying naked
in a world without love
how could we care
for this offspring of selfish desires
better to place a condom on our tongues
than bring an unloved child
into the world

DARK and TWISTED
Sometimes your honesty feels like violent blows
For I still carry our hidden secrets nobody knows
My eyes have opened, but my soul's departed
You left me stranded after just getting started
Somewhere along the way your feelings shifted
Leaving me often feeling so very dark and twisted
You were a trickster filled with so very many lies
To many when's and way far too many why's
Mixed in also with how come's and also who's
Leaving me dumbfounded without any clues
I know I'm not very special nor am I very gifted
I am just...

One arm dragging.
Growing pains.
One arm dragging on the floor.
I had you,
Unfit,
to be called.
Raw expression,
Depression.
Not fit, to be called a Mum.

FATE or SHOT in the DARK
Upon their first meeting, she knew her chances were very slim
but, all she knew was just how very much she wanted him
He was the epitomy of her reoccurring dreamy desire
he and only he would be the one to tame her ever raging fire
Of all the wonderous magical moments he would bring
underneath it all, there's truly basically one very thing
That not just his smile or the way he would teasingly kiss her lips
whether the ones on her lovely face or the between her hips
And also the manner in which he worked his magical hands
that...

MAGICAL MYSTIC
whereabout the magic lies within us all
underneath where the light doesn't fall
wrought so often by touch on silken skin
only then can you truly see from within
in the daylight we often come up short
a heart moated inside castled support
diminished all while the sun shining bright
feelings only seen or felt within lunar light
seep openly in the crevices dead of night
covert thoughts sadly not talked about
and not putting in all that we take out
stepping outside as to check for rain
before we retreat to tuck it...

the question
standing in the
bathroom
looking in the
mirror
asked the question
"Where did it go?"
the answer came
came like bombs
falling on Berlin
under black and
white news clip
skies from 1944
time...
you old bastard,

abandoned village
An Abandoned village
Somewhere in Iberia, packed away in deep gorges
there are time-forgotten villages of houses built of stones
dank inside cold in winter and never cleaned
there are no roads, only tracks from sheep and dwellers
small parcels of land to plant beans and potatoes
wine and Madrona (strong alcohol) is made from wild
growing vines.
Isolated, the human stock was low cousins
tended to marry each other, which in time produced
many half-naked idiot children sat in trees like apes
when not in the grass touching each other...
