Busted in the Morning
Good Morning,
You did one thing wrong, you woke up
If I haven't told you before
I'm sick & tired of this rut
As my stomach turns
Acid reflux burns
I know exactly what I must do
I know how you feel,
when you eat a meal
Go look in the mirror
Can't look at you,
you're busted every morning
My headache is now gone,
relieved we have no spawn
Use to be a naughty ass slut,
now all you want are glazed doughnuts
Doesn't matter how much you think
or the number of hairs in...

Go look in the mirror
Can't look at you,
you're busted every morning
My headache is now gone,
relieved we have no spawn
Use to be a naughty ass slut,
now all you want are glazed doughnuts
Doesn't matter how much you think
or the number of hairs in...

Ode To Caffeine
When I first heard of you, I didn't know what to expect
There were whispers and discussions and yet…
I was not tempted until that day
You had an accomplice
He said “why don't you try a dopio?”
“A dopio?”
“It's a double shot espresso
it's the only way I keep going for the day
I'm telling you you're gonna feel things you have never felt before”
I thought about it and decided
It's time to stop playing these games and just give you a shot
I went out and paid and had you in my hands
I still looked at...

Coffee & Pancakes
I.
We reached that Dead End
the one that pointed and said:
You, Right
and. . .
You, Left.
Scared Us senseless
but we bagged ego
submitted despite what we wanted
Because Love
isn't always grasping for happiness
On the contrary;
it's often a self-sacrifice
for the one you love's benefit
Those who've truly Loved
understand this
II.
A timing belt of dynamics
churns for our experience
Infinite are intersecting...

Autumn's Embrace
Because we are poets
We feel so much
Fall's sudden brisk temperature
Releasing us from summer's hold
Sudden rummaging through draws
Finding sweaters long tucked away
Sleep has been better
Morning's crisp and dog walking faster
I covered you up
Blanket askew
You lay exposed to my hungry eyes
Morning desire to have and to hold....

Imaginary Soup
The rooster crows!
The rooster scares
the hours of the day!
In the portals of the night
the late afternoon.
In the morning arches
the beginning of the day.
The rooster sees the breeder...
In his cackle is the warning
for all poultry
and for all the farm animals
of those human hands
looking for something to eat.
The rooster attacks his operatic aria
with emphasis on sunlight
which shows the murderous hands.
Those hands full of fingers
breaking necks and plucking feathers.
Those hands...

Antemeridian
She was a wee slip of a thing
hanging low in the trees;
a coquette on a wild fling
yet eager to appease.
It was quick like silver she came
and just as quickly went,
like a wispy alchemist flame
that heaven gently sent.
Breaking day wouldn't let her be
so soon she'd disappear,
to blend in morning liberty
with daybreak atmosphere.
She went to kiss her darling sun
to feel young and new
before she once again got spun...
into the midnight blue!

angry wind
while walking,
the angry
wind
caught me
by surprise,
coming
upon me
with angry
and cold
thorned
fingertips
that easily
pierced
my thin
and
unsuspecting
garments,
i huddled
my best
against her
as i was
forced
to flee
down the
sidewalk
and toward
the comfort
of my
waiting home.

so what to do, silly ..
no milk in the fridge
so no tea
sugar
I’m not your sugar
honey
we could always have coffee
hate coffee
in my tea
so no tea
sugar
I’m not your sugar
honey
we could always have coffee
hate coffee
in my tea

All the Little Worms
Each and every step hurts
These knees are getting old
But this heart beats like a drum
Wanting to go faster and further
But the air is getting warmer
And there are a few minutes before the sun comes up over the mountains
Here in the valley
Where the summers are dry and hot
All the little worms
Out to the side walks
Are crawling back into the grass
Now that I’m older and slower in pace
I notice more of these things
Permanent Waves play in my ears
As I make the final stretch home
The sun comes up over the...

Paradise Sunrise
It’ll be here any minute
When I see the light
Going to run towards a
Paradise Sunrise
Got a bag packed
Full of letter seeds
Ready to bloom on the
Fields of my skin
Got my aviator
Ray-Ban glasses on
Sun beam guitar strings
Awakening with a yawn
Nourishing my spring
Of rose petal skin
Sprouting a garden
Creating words to sing
Arranged to set sail
Upon a sun stream trip
Infiltrating the dead of night
So it can feel the life of a
Paradise Sunrise
When I see the light
Going to run towards a
Paradise Sunrise
Got a bag packed
Full of letter seeds
Ready to bloom on the
Fields of my skin
Got my aviator
Ray-Ban glasses on
Sun beam guitar strings
Awakening with a yawn
Nourishing my spring
Of rose petal skin
Sprouting a garden
Creating words to sing
Arranged to set sail
Upon a sun stream trip
Infiltrating the dead of night
So it can feel the life of a
Paradise Sunrise
