welcome to the reader
poetry will now direct
in my life its the main leader
even if not always PC correct.
taken hold is addiction
sleep live and breath
thepoetryforum and me have friction
even if the reader does heave.
love to escape
soon as i get online
all expressed with no cape
its more important then finding a feline.
read and comment
it is a vicious circle
on subjects that need a dent
poetryforum is a god given miracle.
are you a addict
can i cook you some...

Cowboy Song
Had a .22 and a bottle of frontier whiskey
had a thought
of a long time ago when some old cowboy
put a slug thru wood rot
felt that same rush and
nearly pulled the trigger
but then i saw the barrel
against my head
and thought of a new orleans funeral
in the rain
the first strains of a broken hearts note
so then i took another swig off the blown-glass
and thought of a poker face assassin
barely widening his eyes
against the deepest burn
and turning around
i saw the ghost of my own
i nearly pulled the trigger...

UNRESOLVED MYSTERY
A puzzle I am even unto myself…a mystery not even I can resolve.
I have never understood why I do or act the way I do…the mystery never dissolves
With every leap I take into a brand new day
I blow myself away
Thinking and over-thinking, analyzing and configuring myself like an unsolvable equation
I’ve shot prayers up to the heavens asking the Almighty to explain, awaiting with anticipation
For answers never answered…not even by the Almighty One.
So, I’ve re-traced my footprints paved across the miles of my history and found...

Societal reigns
Shards of ice are all my heart can push through,
Lifeless I lay, lifeless I stay,
Entombment of my own apathy.
Lifeless I lay, lifeless I stay,
Entombment of my own apathy.

Nvr Mynd
Tis a never mind
That harbours
Suicidal thoughts
Killin ongle ono selves
Toxic stinking thinking
Held captive, myndz
Abundant hearts do tell
Loves love abandoned
Issues, seen to play out
Interesting scenes
Dare to exist behind
Deadly sins, lusting
Beastly sixes, wrath and all
None other above
Love to conquer
Unadulterated honesty
Searchingz beyond
Sights of a neva myndful mynd!!!

Brainstorm cometh, damning frontal hemisphere

uber wayfaring zealot, drills legendary phalanx.

Genesis Of Thoughts
Narrow and shallow shining laser focus
into chasm while teetering on brink
akin to scurrying thru microcosmic burrow
of microscopic Manhattan skyscrapers
wink'n nod and blink,
this ace of spades heart (diamond
in the rough) poet digs club billy shallow
sometimes forced to spelunk
thru crawl space chink
hunting down gamesome dodging
catlike whim elusively outpaced,
yet webbed, whorled wide net
nonetheless doth cap cha alive
agile adept idealized rat fink,
...

Formally Known
Who they were is no more
formally known before passing
resurrected at the bequest
of one person, their very self
the butterfly is born to fly
from the form that came before
once thought the perfect shape
normality then transformed
the questing one journeyed far
beyond the walls that defined
security beloved by all
now the chains that hindered life
cast aside though some may ask
the garbs then worn to replace
manacles no longer bound
to discover freedom’s bliss
now the conflict has been resolved ...

this hunger makes us dangerous
so what if i walk about with my head in the clouds?
so what if i am mostly a doppy romantic?
so what if i will not hear
a cross word about johnny mathis?
so what if i have my nose jammed in a book
or three?
so what if i am something of toaist these days?
do you think that i have forgotten
how to chew your face away
as if a rabid animal?
(and you with a face
so much like a porkchop.........)

Wracked With Ratiocination When Writing
no shortage of familiar metier real
(material) aye attest
welling up within thy breast
merely a predicament how to winnow
junk bonded barnacled
accretion encrusted
amidst gems buried
within treasure chest,
yet vigilant to sift,
viz figurative fine tooth comb
uprooting excrescence laired plethora
incognito, sans faux
couture doggerel habiliment dressed
necessitating painstaking
poetic rock climbing
ala scaling Mount Everest
imbedding, hooking,...
