dearest sir-vent

if the leg horse was not so encumbered with the whitewash of undone and undoable laundry, this fear would be consumed with intended banefulness.
in light of the heavy, upon my already depleted pen, I request meeting taken at your enticement.
the issue of who or whom, depending upon your level of enlightenment and education, shall carry the added mass.
- etched upon the whiteboard.

the rain

mist invades every private inch,
enough so as to convince garment
to revoke its desire to cling -
and part - as memory does of
long ago.
slowly : tenderly.
in this way, the artist inhabits cloud,
using sparks of brilliance to startle inhabitants below -
jarring memories of greatness.
Earth needs its lovers,
its poets -
needs the rain.

thank you for the rain.

the Solution

daily, early doves awake him, 
to examine the beauty of his still sleeping wife.
only his dreams contain such vision.
this is the moment, daily,
he remembers to make waking hours
- ones of peace.

the moth

the moth on the desk
lead the annual parade for Spring's arrival.
barely remembering, it awkwardly stumbled
through air. the summer breeze
was in its wind - in the effort
of its wings -
the sound of barbecue,
the smell of the pool.

why did I kill it ?

I owe a debt of gratitude to Scott
 — for his gusto and glee. He makes
my life a brighter place.

I seldom show it, but for what it's worth
— a sincere thanks to you my friend.

It's fascinating how the same silence
shatters in quite different ways — you
have a fan, Scott.

poetry - the language beyond word.
-thank you.
the puffy cloud surrounding  humanity.

poetry - as good as words can get
-thank you.
beyond the debate of storm clouds.


encouragement - soft
as mist from a thousand mile waterfall.

12:45

the power cut around 12:45,
don't know why.
the clock awaits me -
tomorrow, tomorrow.
this day is for fantasy.
sensing the delay, the neon signals
his demand - then warning - flashing -flashing -
reminding - anger - confusion - worry -
embarrassment - flashing
-pleading - pleading - pleading.
Got him !
it's that moment when factory worker finds
pink obsolescence in the mail slot -
all that remains of his flashing is yesterday, 
tomorrow will again be for clocks -
but today....

I'm what they call a memory keeper
I never got to bathe in yoghurt soap
or drink soy through a straw, but I did
they say, steal a chicken from a house
before — a long, long time before.
