A STONE’S THOREAU
If solitude were stone,
With these last years
Then,
I’ve solidified a spacious home.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
LONELINESS
If there
were only snow,
Then there would be
an excuse for the cold.
*******
AGE
The grey demon wisdom,
Slows the step,
Bends the back,
While youth turns its head away.
&&&&&&&&&
MOUNTAIN PASS
More a complaint
Than a companion.
The unhappy wind.

FATHER
They told me about
how my father in
his reluctant metamorphous
tried to comfort a
dieing man.
In the basement
laundry room
hovered by tenant
angels and my creator
sixty eight years
ceasing to exist
over a linted, steel drain.
***********
The Impotence of Emotion
Bury the mouth parts
Bleeding as pity,
The cranium seems
As a reservoir
For blood and emotion.
But rid of life,
It
Flows to emptiness.
The skull,
Its immoveable
Joints loosened,
Dismembers,
Moist,
Separate,
Apart,
Calls for solitary
Pits,
Singular darknesses
To waste in.
The hate that
Cries in the
Hidden mind
Pushing its walls
Down on consciousness.
The screams
The chaos
The gentle weeping.
The anti-chamber
Destroyed
Awakened and killed
In quaking flames.
The cerebrum opens
Like a
Black hole.
A vast
Distorted
Finity
Where silence
Released
As sound
Plays with solidity
To a vaporous
Liquid.
The monster fury
Grasps
Perceptions
Compresses them
To the heat of
Fusion
The fission,
A tidal pull
To wake.
#############
Sorry! But I can’t
January crushed me.
I needed you but . . . you were disappeared.
So I can’t do this again.
I love you too much . . . I guess?
&&&&&&&&&
Still Life…
The Moon sets
As white wine
Fills the thin glass
On the small table.
Behind her
Her still erect maleness lies,
Nude on a Couch.
While she,
Robed, leans against the table,
Still Life with Glass.
***
Drying on the Beach…
Drying on the beach….
The net billows
So much like the just loosened blouse,
The sky seems flesh through the weave.
****
The Object of Dreams
I pulled
her long
hair
out of my
bathtub drain
She is the past
that has
backed up into my
future.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
A MAN’S MORNING
Awoke to;
A painful erection,
The sun rose too.

BARK
Bark,
A rugged protection.

NO TREE
No tree.
Just sharp sky
And me alone.
