  • Take Me Back

    to Saturday Cartoons To dial-tone phones and men on the Moon Leave this entire decade here I will live in yesteryear.

  • I Want to Travel

    back in time.Straight to the 1990’s. I want to re-experience them I hate that they’re behind me. I know that I can do this if I  Could just master time.That whole decade still exists Although we’re left behind.

  • Hell’s Empty

    Hell’s a little empty cuz the Devil’s up here. Well, he came around the city and we had a few beers. I hear he found a little lady and he always gets paid. May have come a little early but at least he got laid. If you see him comin’ for ya try to go…

  • No Title

    Bitten by Medusa’s hair, I’m poisoned and I’m stoned. Lie with me—we’ll be a pair— I dare not sleep alone.

  • I Saw a Girl in the Bush

    I saw a girl just in the bush Out of my corner-eye She smiled at me and then she blushed And then she waved goodbye The glimpse of her was oh so brief It might not e’en be real Was it just a thought I had In my automobile?

  • Nine

    This pandemic’s got me going mad. It really feels like it will never end. I’ve tried to use the excess time I’ve had To be productive to productive ends. If you’re like me you’re losing half your mind Just trying to keep busy and keep safe. This isolation is a galling grind. And public recreation…

  • I Saw Peter

    I saw Peter at the gate  But I was running really late So I said to him at once Sir, I never played the dunce And I did what the Hebrews  told In the Holy books of old And, yes I read the Golden Rule They didn’t even teach in school  Then I applied it…

  • Perseus and Andromeda

    Image by WikiImages from Pixabay He flew on wingèd sandals near the shore And saw her naked there against the stone As beautiful a maiden naught before, Had Perseus encountered, bound alone. He carried the decapitated head Of the Gorgon sister who was known As Medusa—even in her death Her disconnected head could turn to…

  • There’s Magic

    There’s a magic flowing through  Each and every thing. I wish that you could feel its pow’r It shakes my living be’ng. It doesn’t differentiate No ‘isms’ or ‘otries’— It doesn’t care how ignorant You just happen to be We’ll never know, for instance, And can’t hazard a guess, What fungi say to old oak…

  • Albert’s in the Hall

    Poison Ice Cream · Albert’s in the Hall Alberts waiting in the hall Oh, that man has seen it allThrough his passion and his painThere is sun after rain There’s a madness you can feelSome will say it isn’t realStill you feel it in your soulHe will lose all control CHORUSAlbert’s waiting in the buildingwielding, shieldingHe…

  • Love to Make

    Speak to me in poetry Whisper what you’d say to me Cross your lips into my heart Beauty, you’re a work of art Ever-after’s just awhile So little time to see you smile But we work with the gifts we’re given As long as we are one, we’re livin’ As long as there are breaths…

  • Dead Ass Meat

    A storm is coming trust. We all can feel it now. It’s building in its strength It’s breaking at the bow. To harbor, we will go Protection from the storm For those who make the grade Are those who get the worm. The worm always decides Just whose cancer to eat And if you’re not…

  • Autumn—While We Have It

    Longing now for Autumn—for a Season so serene. Leaves litter my lawn and not a Single space between. Autumn bringing temperatures  So varied and extreme It seems reality is blurred And everything’s a dream. But if I’m really dreaming  When I wake what will I find? A hotbed here of Hell or just a World…

  • Sonnet One

    If love is all you’ve got I have enough Please bring me something challenging to me As difficult a problem as you’ve got And I will solve it expeditiously.   The only time I’ve loved was in my youth The only time I’ve lost to a degree. I wish that then I realized the truth.…
