The Bug That Fell In Love With The Flower
I never expected it to rain that day because the sun was so bright and hot. Everything had a yellow glow according to the sunlight.
Fashionably hot I flew to a spot under a leaf; shapes like a mosquito swat. It suddenly started to rain and the memories came striking like lightning.
My shelter was complete. I stayed until the rain was done but by then it was night and I was stranded under a wet leaf.
The green sepals towered over me. Each motion tilts them to my fear of me falling off the leaf. It was dark and even after the rain, it was hellishly hot.
...

Flower Shop
He was kind of like rose,
One to only show up on occasion I suppose.
Only comes around in the lows.
Makes you feel so great but never grows.
Just dies under your lonely cries.
Don't act so surprised.
Just keep picking up the petals,
Until it finally settles,
My hell you’re speaking in riddles.
Don't say it was the affection you never showed.
You can’t keep messing up, and sorry we are closed.
All the roses have been sold to the ones a little less cold.
One to only show up on occasion I suppose.
Only comes around in the lows.
Makes you feel so great but never grows.
Just dies under your lonely cries.
Don't act so surprised.
Just keep picking up the petals,
Until it finally settles,
My hell you’re speaking in riddles.
Don't say it was the affection you never showed.
You can’t keep messing up, and sorry we are closed.
All the roses have been sold to the ones a little less cold.

Plants
What is a flower
What does it mean to take a cold shower
Moments lost as if in a tower
Going to ground to gain power
Petals of love always fly by
Roots always die
Tell me who am I
Simple photosynthesis I apply
Rain gives me endless joy
I feel just like a little boy
Don't play with me and act coy
Lying in the dirt simple things of soy
What does it mean to take a cold shower
Moments lost as if in a tower
Going to ground to gain power
Petals of love always fly by
Roots always die
Tell me who am I
Simple photosynthesis I apply
Rain gives me endless joy
I feel just like a little boy
Don't play with me and act coy
Lying in the dirt simple things of soy

Early Dew
In the sweet smelling morning
life is filled with wonder,
a moment of anthem
toiled from the passing breeze,
now given freely and gently
while little spheres of dew
aimlessly wander, parting
the moment the new sun
chases them away, but wishing
only a chance to return
and dance again amid
the colored petals.

not easy on the train ..
why would I buy you flowers when
you deserve trees and what do you
mean where have I've been trying to get
this bleedin' oak home for hours ..

Rag-Foot Joe Come By, Astounding Amerika's Dreams
Every word sound like shit today, this
mildly
molded everyday formed in
precision to the many come before.
Before the after
thought when maybe, better
choices were chosen to buck up that
noisy parade come to oppose itself and
it;s wide-open, drug-effected, drunk affect, looking
to the future, thru another army of glass-eyed warriors
that came knowing who to kill, by what measures, and when.
All at ease for a break-in-the-action, pleas,
drinkin'coffee, drinkin'tea,...

Springtime in the lowlands
The honeysuckle blooms in the spring
Wild orange trumpets that silently sing
Beside wild rose hips that may sting
The honeysuckle reigns like kings
And the shaggy-barked woods whisper
Like a sultry maiden before you kiss her
Sweet nothings, its own sweet language
The lonely woods sit there and languish
Wild orange trumpets that silently sing
Beside wild rose hips that may sting
The honeysuckle reigns like kings
And the shaggy-barked woods whisper
Like a sultry maiden before you kiss her
Sweet nothings, its own sweet language
The lonely woods sit there and languish

BEYOND BOUNDARIES
From silky memories of moonlight nights to sunset walks upon the beach within the early morning dawn of light, it is those memories I cherish the most of you and I as one heart and one soul, for even now as I walk the beach alone with the sun against my back as I look as far as my eyes will let me see I wish that you were here with me to the see the very beauty that you open my eyes too. For you've shown me that there is more of the world to see like the ocean with its mist of an summer breeze blowing against my skin, even to walks amongst the trees and tall grass and flowers called nature...

The Vernal
The ice witch drips, moisture to ground.
Mother rolls round, tips her hat to the sun,
whispers warmth to field and forest,
gentle the gestures, change has begun.
Ditch and hedgerow bursting maternal,
gather their shelters from leaf and moss,
popping blue bells call time on all listeners,
the bridge between seasons is ready to cross.
A whiskered twitch, sniffs out from burrow,
blankets of leaves are folded away,
high flying birds sense their calling,
gaggle and chatter, will fly today.
Bright yellow fanfares bunch...

California Winters
White flowers bloom in
California winters
oddly near wood carcasses
some trees burst of green, still
with leaves so small, opaque
cold gusts blow
until they look like bushels of glitter
caught by beams from the western sun
By 4 pm blackbirds
contrast the pale blue sky
