the Gotham man
the Gotham man
He is so wealthy, perhaps the richest man
In the world, he enjoyed his lucre and sired
A dozen of male and female children
He has reached middle age, and his youth has
Gone the body, no longer as elastic as before
He has realized, as many men before him
that
Life has a time limit
Great wealth is also power speaks; we listen when
A rich man voices his opinion he has thrown
himself into body politics, perhaps confusing
Opinions as truth
The problem is he has yet to learn the language
Of diplomacy and is...

a regular day
A regular day
We read, with amusement, that Facebook is set free
Mark, our erstwhile friend, has seen the light
Not spending money on fast-checkers, more kudos to him
Is he sincere
For now, this is of scant interest, the wind blows hard, rattles the window, and demands to be let inside.
Hollers, you were glad for the summer breeze
So, what is wrong now
How do explain, to the wind it is a matter of knowing when the climate for change is right?
The wind is not willing to give up, asks what about
X, a rude and opinionated site; well, you...

a grocer and dreamer
The Grocer and Dreamer
The local grocer calls his shop
The best supermarket in town
Although his shop is small
He has big dreams, sells jam
tinned beans, bananas, lemon
and chocolate cakes
He also sells local wine made
on a plot, run by his brother
In the morning, he has fresh
From a bakery that has few
Customers as it sells real bread
That is not packed in plastic
A big supermarket nearby
Will open soon
Our grocer, harassed by health
Inspectors every week sold
The shop to the new supermarket ...

life lived
The life lived
I live next door to a street lamp
full moon every night
On an enormous heavenly canvas
A Lone Star shine
the rest have turned their back on earth
light up a galaxy
that is not of my concern.
When I watch an ad for Martini Blanca
on TV fine, by me
I need not be smart, in a bar.
I pity the star
it must be cold up there.
I wave, it blinks back, and fireflies dance.
I live next door to a street lamp
full moon every night
On an enormous heavenly canvas
A Lone Star shine
the rest have turned their back on earth
light up a galaxy
that is not of my concern.
When I watch an ad for Martini Blanca
on TV fine, by me
I need not be smart, in a bar.
I pity the star
it must be cold up there.
I wave, it blinks back, and fireflies dance.

the simple faith
The Simple Faith.
At school, we had bible classes
but our religious learning was based
on the New Testament
The Old Testament was kept away from
us as it was vile and long knives
God was not so much in the picture
other he was Jesus's father
that he was a son of the virgin Mary was
not what we were asked to think of
consequently, we knew nothing other
then the name of Jesus' disciples
the cruel Romans and coward Judas
I often thought of god, still do, and
found not believing in anything was
wrong as nothing in...

Reflection of Tears
Crying into the ocean, I lose my way,
To add to the sea, where sorrow will stay.
To see the reflection of me dissolve,
I cry as the waves around me revolve.
To see, then fall, and splash into the tide,
Where tears and the water forever collide.
I cried into a river, where currents collide,
To see my tear just washed away.
On the bank, I did stand by the rushing tide,
My tears fell to the land, destined to stay.
The river consumed all I could resolve,
My cries to its waters did slowly dissolve.
I cried in a puddle, where...

To see, then fall, and splash into the tide,
Where tears and the water forever collide.

the last bus
The last bus
This is a day for us losers, no this is not about the climate, from my window it looks like doing well, a dollop of sun there and a splash of rain there, it is no asking for anyone’s permission
With losers, I mean us who have managed to get old, but living wildly and not going for longevity
This makes us miserable because we have nothing to look back on and say, sure I did that
It is not that we didn’t try to make a mark, but
Booze and women got in the way, conquest
a whore in every port

Need Some Dialogue
Need some dialogue
Without it all bets are off and then it’s On(fire)
If we can’t put some words together to get us
A little closer to being real no bullshit gloves are off
So give me some dialogue
And I’ll show you we’re not so different
When a storm comes upon us we can deal without human impulses
So talk to me I’ll talk to you
Give me some dialogue to show us both
We aren’t Ape Men
And I’ll grill you up something good
Enough to feed our family
Until we burp and unbutton our pants
...

failed mariage
Failed marriage
In my village in the Algarve, I met a retired
Captain in the US Army, he had a military walk
and tended to dress like he was on a safari
He had a house in Florida with crocodiles
on the lawn, he never said what he did when
in the army. perhaps the catering corps
on his travel to see Europe, he had in Portugal
met a plump middle-aged woman and decided
to stay for a while, and since few spoke English
I was his audience.
One can say it was a perfect match for her dream
was to go to America, she guarded him as...

long way home
long way home
Evening transit murderous
slowing down to a standstill
I'm a part of a long necklace
fascinating colors, a circus is
coming to town
A sea-gull in peeked cap
knocks on the window
tells me to carry on, too soon
awake as a Bengalian tiger
crossing a bridge that will
collapse, if not today, but
some rotten day
A thousand cars in the drink
the injustice of this thrown
together grasping at straws
The falling rain is an affront
water has planned this
A café, ahead, drink coffee ...

The Wolftrap Bar
A tall glass of water you are”
The words I had no control of
Marooned at Wolfstrap
Except I wasn’t trapped
The bar partially empty
I had drank a few
Before I met you
You helped me sober up
And got me home
Alone I had felt
Until you made me melt,
My cold heart thawed out
I might be thinking out loud
But I may have found
The one I’ve been waiting for
I sank to the floor
An interesting predicament
Do you wish to be friends?
Or will you possibly,
Hopefully, maybe
Be mine
