American Biology, the music of life.
and Thus I fell upon the sword of my predilection A moment of divine inspiration gone astray This dish of red and beating bread Cast aside refrain On shelf ****** a mote of dust To Wait another day. ...at what point does patience become denial

Hourglass
I Sleep next to dreams as lofty words on wasted reams a miss used time or ends to means this mush of patience restrains to sin through will of mind contained within lay that to waste what aspires to be oh hidden fate in elegancey I close mine eyes withhold thy needs care not to cause few misread deeds whom only lead to spiteful seeds Moon beams wane and dissipate cross frosty panes a gauge of time ticked off by rain this music made sweet serenade a leitmotif of dreams past played on morning comes & brings the sun the brightest star of Apollo's hour and Ea's desire though all I aspire this union of fire of earth well worth we wait within deep sleep and reap our body's heat oh perfect form thoughts while I gaze attention divided open field fed by maze -2006

Intellectually ******
It is in this hour, as the exposure of day gives way to the intimacy of dark, when all plans cease to matter and the very air relaxes from reverberations of days clutter. darkness smooths out the bumps of light, softening annoyances and lending much needed contrast to things that matter most. We behave truest in our darkest hour

on the night
It's silly all the thought that goes into writing poetry. The poems that count are the ones which require no thought at all. when you asked me to write you a poem, gave me a deadline I knew I would fail.  Had failed. Now. The words on this paper will not bring you back they won't wage wars in the name of God or love won't rise up off the paper when all that's needed is an embrace. These words are no more than lead on paper strained attempts at funneling thoughts distilled down to something somewhat legible no more tangible then words spoken aloud. dust on the wind so to speak, fully capable of bringing tear to eye despite their inanimate position. I need a drink, the burn of fire water to cleanse my soul Poor me another, cause I can still see  the floor

thoughts on paper
Swing my phallus, a lame attempt to keep balance on this spinning rock. Better ruled by short stick then take stock in anything serious. mind shut move forward what we can't see certainly can't hear us. Only an ******* pumps fists This abashed soul lumps his blame on the short comings of others. Disdain, a fort built from pillows and covers tumbles under the absent look given by scorned lovers... I picked a rose pricked a finger now my love is left to linger with thoughts of red blood all because I was too impatient to grasp it a casket lies in reserve for this paper soul it doesn't take a fool to see that penciled trees won't grow so here i stand thumb up head down gratuity, a hole filled with water and rubish forms beauty in this mind an oil rainbow doth permiss But thats just it a shimmer, a sheen that gleam a thin slice of cold metal the only rebuttal a reflection, depth shallow if mirrors speak no lies pull thIs finger out of a hat devise an angle to cut glass which speaks truth not crap, or a whacked crack at fact. A fallacy presented forms false return allows me repentance from all that i've learned. Solace in dreams? a world of things which feints refuge, gives refuse and meddles muddied the sleep sought to steal from the night replaced it with fists, your form, and a fight a plight is where i stand to sit despite the case i planned to rip Eyes turn to days distracted thoughts juggled nights turned to pains, sore throats, bloodied knuckles Upside down or inside out? ... to be continued -2010

Is it worth my time to rhyme or should i just state my case and place this dime in line with the others waiting patiently for a chance to be exchanged for a song to sing along monger thoughts about doubts and clouds hot girls or conquered worlds fast cars and false stars bop to the beat bequeath further ideas or lies so I'm told by authorities brought to tears for a neglected world flag unfurled of false ideals and reals of red tape to bind hands stunt plans of mans minds evolution ever we should grow to realize nothing even justifies this disregard for free energy and unrestricted mental tenacity Let morals rule 'sted scripted paths reinforced by stave and threats of hells frightful burning fiery vats -2007

Penny for your thoughts
Awake I lie at foot of hedge In sleep I stake my claim These enigmatic poses read Delve crossroads good and vain Determined not by what was said befuddled state remained And though the sun shone forth so clear a fog floats present fear to veer this course I would retain So still to seek a path I must through this leaf lined elusive muck Some things are lost Long left for dust with time to heal pain (and trust) But should a solemn path hold true and light my weary way a price, a goal, a trove en full mean nothing lest it's you -2006
