Preposterous
In my nightmares
of dark's puberty
as the shadow grows
struts a carrion crow
with all the pomp
and desolate eyes
of stone-beaded evil
with preposterous praise
and inuendoes
of egotism living in a cave
of dark's puberty
as the shadow grows
struts a carrion crow
with all the pomp
and desolate eyes
of stone-beaded evil
with preposterous praise
and inuendoes
of egotism living in a cave

THE PIGEONHOLE COMPLEX
WHERE?
Poets have, as a whole,
an amazing ability
to venture into worlds
of fantasy, make-believe,
dark, sexual differences,
dreams, anger, historical
backgrounds and moments.
Some poems are self-revealing
while other poems are fiction.
Through the years I have
noticed, as well as being
the recipient of, the practice
by readers to place poets
in pigeonholes and boxes.
WHY?

to separate the poet, who
is rarely known face-to-face

I'VE NEVER READ A BAD POEM
OPINION
I was just thinking,
which I dare and do
some of the time.
I was thinking about how
everybody and their
friends and enemies
have opinions about
poets and poetry.
Which is great and
acceptable to me as
a free tinker and
non-respecter of persons.
The gamuts of opinions run from
fools to brilliant, from academia, to
smart, professional, and illiterate.
I believe, and I'm not asking
anyone to agree with me,
that every poet has the
right to express what emotions,
mind, heart, and...

DONUTS, AND OTHER ADVENTURES
Lost and dazed I pull into the gravel lot
Colby hijacks shotgun
And 4 others pile into the backseat
They scream and laugh as I
Frantically blast Beethoven
Fulfilling a newfound fantasy
And put pedal to metal
Jerking the wheel and spinning recklessly into control
Tomorrow I’ll revisit that field
To find modern art gouged into the grass
I’m suddenly tasked with driving Lucas
To yet another field
Discussing German cultures in a German car listening to German music
While improperly following new friends and almost

WHY I COMMENT ON POEMS
HONOR
It is an honor,
to me, for me,
to read the poems
and writings of
others, regardless of
where they appear;
even on toilet walls
NO,
not to sit in judgment,
criticize, or evaluate,
but to enjoy, meditate,
and appreciate what the
writer has put into the poem.
Some are written out of joy,
some out of sadness, anger,
sexual arousal, being coy;
others seek to challenge
and create questions,
and even confusion which
is good at the time.
While I recognize spelling errors,
syntax...

WHY I WRITE POETRY
CLARIFICATION.
I should have titled this,
"Why I TRY to write poetry."
I write poetry because
I have a love affair
with words, syntax,
metaphors, lines,
sentences, and paragraphs.
SUBJECTS
There is no subject
that poetry cannot address.
There is no emotion
that poetry cannot touch.
There are no highs
nor lows that poetry
cannot reach.
RESULTS
Poetry creates anger,
frustrations, doubt,
love, passion, pleasure,
sadness, euphoria,
danger, questions, ...

Refuge For Me
fear hiding behind my smile
for at least half a century
it reveals no sadness or sorrow
self image taunted by humiliating
words exhausting anything positive
mentally weak fighting to luv life
making useless wishes blowing out
birthday candles secretly wishing
to not celebrate another year
soft warm rain drops from above
cleansing dark secrets within me
a refuge for my tears and soul

shadow
she's a dream,
ghostly
with haze
without shadow,
the night sky
overran
the sleeping
moon,
her form
standing
against
a background
dark as night,
but when
the morning
whispers
its first light,
she fades.

Silhouette
In my mind's twilight metamorphosis
putting shadows on the back burner
through the looking glass over fields
of yonder and blues skies
finding the joy of little things
listening to the swallows' choir
Ave Maria's silhouette
putting shadows on the back burner
through the looking glass over fields
of yonder and blues skies
finding the joy of little things
listening to the swallows' choir

Eat my heart.
I've saved the deepest part of me.
Its shrouded in mystery.
An enigma waiting to be discovered.
Layers longing for revelation.
In solitude.
Within darkness....im here.
Passionate....waiting.
A black heart.
Take it.
I have kept it sacred for you.
You can feed.
Take your fill.
I will lay motionless.
Ready for you to have your way.
Pleasure yourself in my decay.
Each and every day.
I'll gladly lose myself in you.
To climax on another level.
Another kind of deeper blue.
All the time...
Its shrouded in mystery.
An enigma waiting to be discovered.
Layers longing for revelation.
In solitude.
Within darkness....im here.
Passionate....waiting.
A black heart.
Take it.
I have kept it sacred for you.
You can feed.
Take your fill.
I will lay motionless.
Ready for you to have your way.
Pleasure yourself in my decay.
Each and every day.
I'll gladly lose myself in you.
To climax on another level.
Another kind of deeper blue.

THOUGHTS ABOUT POETRY WRITING
SELF-DISCOVERY
I do not
write poetry,
poetry writes me.
I do not have to
search for words,
words find me;
I freely and openly
sin against syntax.
I never know
the ending, the
ending is a surprise.
There is never
a disappointment
because my ever-present
Muse knows best.
I do not write
because I have to,
I write because
it is in my DNA.
I am not concerned
about critics;
I am my best critic.
I do not have
a special time to write;
my subconscious is

Treading On Eggshells
I placed all my eggs
Within one solitary basket
And noticed, not the hole
Nor the trail
Of broken dreams
In my wake
I shall return
To my shell
And try not to make
The same mistake
