SATAN'S BREATH - (ad lib radio play about war)
Three men wait for orders
Tank roll towards them
No artillery support
No retreat called
They wait as the tanks roll forward...
Tank roll towards them

Memento Mori: Memento Vivere
We lay on our
spheres and write
poetry in the
ever changing light
of destiny's shadow.
“remember you must die, so remember to live”

Shadow
I hid behind
the rock;
She said
yes sir
thank you sir
your dark
humor sir;
as the Shadow
drug her off.

To the Voltarens
I gasped;
Micromegas!
I have
found you!
He was a
giant of
gargantuan
stature;
how could I miss?
My God
how we laughed.

Science Musings
Poets muse the smiling sun,
Science scans the mathematics;
Both will chase the light-beam,
Each with potent ecstasy.

it was said
to him
" go to that desolate rock
and call her name out"
you will
find her
and so he did
perhaps his call
wasn't strong enough

One day
I shuffled through my notes,
- a mind's dismay.
the blue ribbons,
the red flowers -
where patriot buds lay,
- waiting to come alive.

the oxygen came,
as the poetry captured
the fire—the flame,
it took a deep breath.

Quaint Randy Sultan
Austrian beer
communal drunkenness
fondled guests keeping
laughs muzzled, nibbling,
openly pleasured
quaint randy sultan
teases, unwraps
virginity's Xanadu,
youth's zest

A Kiss
Repeating from a single sun
They can not see
In the shadows of twin moons
Lovers touch to share a kiss
They can not see
In the shadows of twin moons
Lovers touch to share a kiss

thing.
People throw things away quickly.
If your hands are physical, your smartphone is also a thing.
It's easy to say things, but things also have a god.

Vessels
Collection of pencils
Some disdained
The honorable ones
Kept in vessels.
