Raphium Series~Brother
Little rebellion inside my soul
hoping to escape my troubles
Worrying the sky
his blue is tormented
Child of the day swims sideways
there is a cap on the air
I am grounded
So moving left to right
travel the winds
Finding the desert jubilation
and like a colt run free
expending energies too painful
Seeking sanctuary
immortal honesties
are too dreadful for me
Sympathy for the devil surely
understanding of the creator?...perhaps
Anger rushes through my veins ...

When a Guy Calls you Brother
Man
That's really amazing
Been charting the vernacular for years
Everytime it happens, stops me in my tracks
He called me Brother
There's no higher Apex
Man to Man can be a difficult quotient
Enough said

Loner's 50th Birthday
Today is the
Loner's Birthday
He wants to enjoy
the women but
with all that is going on
he chooses to stay
safe in his bubble
He might be over the hill
and can't get it up
no more he might
need the blue pill or
Nugenix to get his
shit in order to
become the Incubus
he's meant to be
So Happy Birthday
To the Loner

I Have A Voice
I have a voice
it will not be stilled
hear me
hear my words
of deep concern
for you
for them
for family
for our nation
we are all
but brothers and sisters
not here to hurt
each other
but to help one another
I have a voice
you have one too
use it for uniting
not dividing each other
and don't forget that
we all matter
it will not be stilled
hear me
hear my words
of deep concern
for you
for them
for family
for our nation
we are all
but brothers and sisters
not here to hurt
each other
but to help one another
I have a voice
you have one too
use it for uniting
not dividing each other
and don't forget that
we all matter

The Artist
Find the poem in every person" ~ William Carlos Williams
He was quiet, with stone cold, observer eyes.
Face, set in stone, from time waves
of… Talking to no one -
Telling no lies.
I saw him one day, at the sink…
Crystalline waters -
Downward flow
Like icy daggers
of… Sorrow
Made serene
Liquid colors in the drain…
Swirling
Art is movement that stirs the soul.
I entered his sphere, with no fear
just fascination
Starting a conversation
with a question
in...

Sister & Me
Sister & Me
Crimson tressed child
Of the copper lamplight
trades first communion lily gown
For blue nurse evening shawl
With Red Cross and
Toy stethoscope
To hear the Jazz rhythm
Of my heart
But phonograph of Brubeck
Plays our song
For our pretend Union
On altar of girlhood tears
That bears the loneliness
I too feel
While lost in boyhood dreams
Of seagulls chasing the night away
On neighborhood stoops
Where Django strums from guitars
As dawn comes with slow insistence ...

R.I.L. my brother. (Rory Cordell Reedus)
I just heard the news today
I think of the times we shared
Im not quiet sure right now what to say
Your heart was so big few could have compared.
One last time to hold your hand.
One more time to hug you close.
Lil brother confidant and friend.
I hate not knowing what i should say most
You were hard head and fought for what you believe
Yet still kind at heart to try and fix whatever it maybe.
Now im heading home to let you have eternal sleep.
Weve always said life will be what it will be
I dont want to let go but...

Berserker Brothers
here we go...
hunt with stealth oh brotherhood
bring down the hypocrites who sit in judgement falsely
with a wide swing cut their words from their mouths
leering at you like they know better
and don't forget lest history repeat itself
they struck first
my blood beats with passion
anger stirs and I swallow
releasing it in the aether
letting darkness hunt itself
calling down principalities
elitist cunts with prejudice
I call on favors from the immortal
to bring down the giant
we rise and fall ...

Barstow’s Nostradamus
More than an attempt to get right
with the city of Santa Cruz
childhood home of my buddy Doug
reflections on a Receding Hairline
If ever a listening with the skills
of a bartender graced my life
Doug fit the job to a tee
heart laugh, spot on advice
A sense of right and wrong
refrained from excess in judgement
keen observer of human behavior
more than advanced student of music
Shooting the breeze after work
tour guide of big B
the forecaster of Barstow’s plight
“after the tsunami we’ll be...

I Wish To Seduce My Husband... Not His Brother!
Rachel went into the bedroom.
She was getting herself ready for Daniel.
But instead, Harrison walked in.
