The Lord's over skin
apart from the color
of a man's blood
are linked
to a lengthy
lineage
of blue-eyed *******
f*#cked by mutts.

As they face another wall
my eyes are in a river
and my face a waterfall
I see children begging
in the street
I hear their hearts
can you feel the heat
a penny for your thoughts
please embrace the need
and attend to the beat

For love

A million positions available

Requirements

A curriculum vitae

Not perfect in its application

Remuneration

A labour of glorious returns

Heart palpitations
a bleeding appenditure
the poets feather

Distance lettered
excited unfettered
a pen rendered it
and a pal befriended it:)

Asleep in the head

rent free and very well fed

shhhhhh  there's monsters there

Don't fret
place your bet
on a horse called death

After years of procrastination
You are the glow above the gloss

Lamenting
through pupillary logs
with disregard and no regret,
I look back
remembering as far as I can
tiny, specks.

Strong as the chain of my DNA
on the inside
weak as a single strand
on the outside
I won the race for life
in the first place
still I need your shoulder
to be sure
I'll give you mine anytime
even now feeling
I may have drawn
the shortest straw
strands ain't strings
and yours
could be wrong.

We're not rawhide like cowboys
But we like denim too you know

Jews-over- gentiles
followed by
Fool's gold and Blood-diamond
and then,
The-rainbow-got-it-right
in the winners enclosure stood
No-suchthing-as-black-or-white

Brown leaves flux the pond
tadpoles elude the sunlight
an eerie fog infringed

Indigenous verve
brought the sun back to his roots
chief Autshumao

Of autumn
there is not much to say
brown leaves fall
in healthy decay
white leaks on heads I say
embrace the old
salute the fall
rake the rust
dress for frost
and prepare the coals.

I feed off the wall now
she said awesome!
your size suits the category
he smiled and said thank you.

Most trees grow apart
a sad break for older paths
leaves fold like friends fall

Oh how Rome respects
Caesar's Laurel's replaced
by the Vatican's head

Crackling underfoot
from the leaves around her roots
a furnace for Moms

Monsters keele
dust settles
the ground never
acknowledges the weight
in the pockets
of what's going down

Jet sets all corners
Neither here nor there
Touchdown low profile
Flashy car speeding past
I use to live there as a delinquent
The sounds of the sirens got them hooked hopeless wanton
The incantations echoes in minds
That  feeds the Insomniac
Our new hellos And goodbyes
Are only apparitions
Partly clichéd partly prodigal
Until we see them concussed
shredded in colours of shade and shame jolted by our own pain...
Slain into a state of compassion
Our hearts prepare a banquet
On a budget of prodigious love

Do not concern yourself
with verbal abuse
they are deeply disturbed
enclosed and confused.

A fossil rocks on the beach
alcoholic breath
with dynamic speech
the question was your dad
I must have meant T rex
the devil of that era
her mom lit up her eyes
died too early hurly burly
Rex got rash
drank whisky and smoked hash
he turned mean
she turned blue
like Monday's trash
ran away after eighteen
a cycad on the waterfront
telling true stories
a message ON the bottle
slamming at full throttle.

The weather man said
to pull seed from ***** soil
God made the sky rain

The sun has got mountains to climb.

I reached into the windows
of her Soul

Dripping pastels found my fingertips

Etched by soft caress

Stroking gently

I Painted a beautiful rainbow
Around her forgiving heart

None must hurt in hurts
Cohesion mend and it mends
two halves blend and blends

Dreamcatcher
hold my hand
draw me close
lift her veil
offer my love
beyond the shallow
on the grail.

..Beyond the vail
....Faraway from the myst..
......Ignorance remain bliss.

I sleep at my mother's
My wife has repossessed
The bed and my neighbour
Does the plumbing etc.....

Slipping on her cold blood
Indulgence uncorked
Champagne laced with poison ivy
Euphoria unfolded lapping up
The leftovers of another man's bliss
He got caught in the fish net stockings
Of a poledancer thinking
How the he'll did I miss that
The girl had ***** and a ten inch
Rocket
Tied to a crack in her back pocket

In Zeppelin's dream

monsoon lovers  
in cocoon

ecstatic kaboom

Innocence is the catalyst
a child the key
Compassion births belief.

Look toward the stars
in our existential quest
carry on searching

I'm out of the game
a yard a yarn a yearning
flaccid broke insane

Brushes softly stroked
no anger only patience
love gentle as a dove
