Dedication

Cindy Kimberly.

Foreword

I'd like this poetry book to be a reminder of where my thoughts reside, when I'm on my high . . . with this in the can, it's eleven books this year. 2023 has been rewarding.

I’ve Been Waiting

Illustration for I’ve Been Waiting

I wonder what your desires are

if they are unlike the hour

 

does your bother include any other

outside of the once ousted spats?

 

in the free form of things

I see you’re not just a princess

but I hitch that to what else?

 

what swathes this beauty that impress?

 

could it be a quintuple to let go too intense?

 

often this is my invest

evaluating how must they contest?

Pumped Kin

Illustration for Pumped Kin

If I had my own kids store

I wouldn’t know how to give enough

 

every day ‘d be a showcasing gore

kids by windows, babies inching up

 

I’d file poor parenting reports

soon poor parents would be gone

 

but not by this door

every home grieving toys

 

I would have pleased the bore

they’d be my Halloween crop.

A Long Dream

Illustration for A Long Dream

I thought today was intact

... one of those days of impasse

 

but when I rose to sleep, give thanks

I noticed nothing in the distance

to sleep; to dream of dud ads

as if a first time, I had your hands

and I didn’t want that other land.

 

When the dizzy gust patted my back

I turned to catch his past

but in his mirror I was in your arms.

Her Other Names

Illustration for Her Other Names

A SOS for poets

ends with a row of guests

 

all sobriquet-owned dressed

 

the well-known exempted

 

that’s patron mo Earth

her disguise grown fret.

Silver

Illustration for Silver

I have flossed the albatross

made the crass hazard bronze

 

perchance if you find no worms

perhaps it’s the livery of your love.

I Made Myself Write Today

Illustration for I Made Myself Write Today

The bent on beginning

isn’t at all the half hemming

 

in fact, it’s a seamstress hireling.

Owl Light Ideas

Illustration for Owl Light Ideas

The house next door

has a new pour

arousing none

 

only eyes of worth.

 

Since we got poor

ours and our reflection

 

... the drought in assault.

Love Animal Stripes

Illustration for Love Animal Stripes

If I saw a kindergarten smile

I’d match my entire hide

but without having to give pride

not to display — away, I haven’t a night.

Flamingo Slut

Illustration for Flamingo Slut

Prescient

is this living space.

 

Eyelets

often awful detail lace.

 

Unkept

the scruple from the gad shade.

 

Withheld

even with the holy shapes.

 

I wept

a jejune drape.

 

To forget

his heightened loss of grapes.

She Feels

Illustration for She Feels

Inviting insisting

to drinking the distilled

however clean isn’t wellie.

The Man

Illustration for The Man

He has my waist.

And she has my taste.

 

It’s been his futon.

Sward supine was shunt.

 

Man, you have me frazzled.

Interred Tale Not Yelled

Illustration for Interred Tale Not Yelled

Deflecting to reflect.

 

In effect

this faith’s silence

panting of the end;

ditto within exigence.

 

Do I meet the princess

for you to furl our affected

or whine in a recherché desi hotel

make my love internment salted?

An Angel’s Midnight Sigh

Illustration for An Angel’s Midnight Sigh

I used to know an old pride

wending feeling of a fighting child

've a response to the questioning tide

but not by the hawser of this day's sunrise

 

Isn't it this eyes that I've lied

wishing the tenebrous at this time

Have it, the by-line of one who benights

for when it's dark, I paw it doesn't hitchhike

 

I met a friend in the eve's height

blue moon ago in a bond past twilight

he's showed up this morn when he'd recline

with encomiast words, unguent for golden lice

Worth His Salt, But Not Meant

Illustration for Worth His Salt, But Not Meant

It’s a map to nowhere;

wearing cartographer’s mess

boundary abutting heaven and poems

going from being by an alien titfer or a resident

en passant, the oneiric is the bounder’s lone legend

he’s by the painted wall, seen adjusting over again his lens.

Did You Ask For Spring Water But Got Rain?

Illustration for Did You Ask For Spring Water But Got Rain?

My first big purchase

it’s probably this big chase

so one night, I’ll feel alive from loins to waist

how I afforded the soliloquies that put me in fame

or could it be of my natural parents when I first came?

 

Life is filled with expenses, what do you entertain?

I arrived but not before painting the door, saying I’m incarnate.

 

Sleeping berry, what now do you choose to attain?

Come let’s go give that one, love, she’ll forever appreciate.

The Surf

Illustration for The Surf

We were kewpie dolls

it was heaven and more

our green sole love of law

what remains up this young

when suddenly, odd-abrupt

you ‘d some floral clothing on

ridge of my imagination

thrusting me its divorce

foo, bar, it was obvious

ought in the amorphous

staring for my exile nod

only a baited swain now.

Clip Spot X to Fly

Illustration for Clip Spot X to Fly

There isn't much time

open your missing eyes

even thawed snow sighs

a ferris wheel like smiles

all dumplings miss ye spine

showing countenance to try

it was on hay and in sunshine.

Book Spirits

Illustration for Book Spirits

Big on this . . .

I’m by a ravine

what else is written?

 

His greed was eating

taking up leaving

even in its evening . . .

death, it’s emptying.

Her Hex

Illustration for Her Hex

Once, a palindrome heart melted

with her milk now a wholly fermented

her darling was by for his usual request

his tongue lapped, slapped twitterpated

and all everyone said, and too, give comment

was "oh you got . . . oh yogurt . . ." a new idiolect

he'd absolute; thoroughly ignorant of what meant

but he didn’t need his mum telling him: catch a breath

he was sure he’d loved many a cows, but alas, threshed.

 

He had always loved her breast

not just hers, he enjoyed opulence

but he couldn’t hold a peace reticent

he needed style, the baton by nutrients

everyone ever chanting their “yogurt” beset.

 

Her heart soon lost its shapelessness

he thought it petrified, somehow useless

but to not mock himself, he was circumspect

when nada changed, drought seasons hapless

he asked her what’d changed; you became my ex.

Cold Call

Illustration for Cold Call

An old box of shoe

has a hunch haling troop

it's one of a group

of the old match-dupes

 

I met Kylie's sweet-tooths

since our do-penny brook

now I wuss out a glint, a dude

telling everyone I'm roomed

seated worst side for a book

not for any ol' reading groom

if he's selling me a boot truth
