She could explain beauty to a flower
She is that amazing

But, dare she
appreciate
the many twists and turns
on the limbs of this tree?

With her I take my comfort
knowing that
when I stop
and talk to the ants

that she might stop
and talk to them with me

Understanding
the true and precious nature of ants

and that they are wonderful communicators
not to mention
good friends to have

Her acceptance of me
disarming

Getting to know her
a joyful gift

Unexpected
like the word
“Sugarbuns”

I take delight in my own handwriting
knowing I write for her

because she is
the Flow

And once you know
the Flow…

that’s all
there ever really is

to know

The
Power
of Tongue
to slice
or to love
to express
or to say
what we’re thinking of
Biologically
the strongest
muscle of all
could shoot words of death
like a cannonball
BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM
soft and slimy
able to taste
yet words are spoken
with waste & haste
Death to the lies
Death to the hate
Death to everyth….
No – Wait ! WAIT !
Care what you say
Care what you do
Nothing will happen
Unless you choose
to speak only Love
to say only Truth
accompanied by mouth
assisted by tooth
Yes
Often things are best conveyed
Without tongue in action
Silently say
nothing
nothing
ssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh….

Gargoyles Dance

…and Gargoyles dance upon rooftops

as echoes of laughter

crawl down the sidewalk

only to grip another stranger to the wall

of humanity

crawling, clawing

with nails

of emotional flesh

ripping through well built walls

of thick

organized confusion

masquerading as success

only to find truth

gargling

gargoyles

metamorphosing into angels of light

fly

off into clouds of pink dust

that embody

the great mass

of Love and absurdity

drop-pop-popping

raindrops of gold

that fall into eyes

opening open eyes

that are really

closed to the light of the monstrous void

striking the ground

only to turn

into bouncing super balls

up and down

randomly hitting those

who need to be woken

up to the inherent danger

of themselves

Long Toes
Hold
Many Reasons
Like a Fatal Bird
That Flies In The Night

Apples Roll
Down Brick Streets
And Rot
Where They Stop
Yes Rot

A Fly
Big And Green
Lands
On Horse’s Hiney
And’s Killed
Instantaneously
By
Swat Of Tail

In A Heart
Somewhere
Swims A Fish
In Murky Blood
And Sucks Up All The Love
Yes Sucks Up All The Love

Love’s Labour Lost

Muse1

As a poet, musician and artist… this one has special meaning for me.

Love’s Labour Lost

My muse speaks
So I must obey her

She mentions things 2 me
and they come

She whispers
and I am moved
beyond her words

She smiles and I weep
in her beauty

I give myself 2 her

and she delivers me
2 creativity

like a mother
delivers a baby

I am a Ghost

ghost

To start off the poems here, I figured it would be apropos to begin with the first poem I ever wrote. It all started at the tender age of 6. Here is the untitled masterwork of that very young boy. It may be the best and most honest poem I have ever written.
