Shooting it up, the frosted black
   I once had you, young root,
   And my veins still lay there trapped
and I felt your ghostly ******
      each time, I came to a stop
to climb back into your branches.
ZOO May 2017
I am to grow down to your garden, and talk to the flowers
and I pretend I was succulent and we grow back but never tired.

cut me into three pieces
you work the land by quarters
watching me,
perhaps you whose arms felt like lead.
I gave you rotten things when I grew up
but terribly feeling that I was being laughed at.

So below, I sew with these branches to you
grow back and intertwine. We are the behaviors of the briars
and we are familiar.

I swing at you down by the greens
we just lowered to an idle
and switched for me
caught me up somewhere, dear Sympathy.

I did not have to look to see you like me
  what you mean
you were warmth and about to show me
you had secular laughs.

mouthed liked toadstool
lillies of the desert
dirt all over my dreams
you went the down wrong way,
and up is now down inside me.
i am as Two girls on a swing-
go down in sweatpants.

To trust

Look into wisdom
Let go

Barefoot

Stop by the frig
Grab a diet beverage

Enjoy what is received
In meditation

Of fairies at my mazes

Over and over, day to

come and go
   to stay in, place them
to wander

shapes slow
they dissolve in too
then wonder
    sharing how far we
can go.

bittersweet Lava,
the blue breath sprays
  the paint of the ocean
the sentiment of your River
Trecks back to pig buried under beach
   of Happy fools, that let
the Sand in your wet swimsuit
left drying on your Rocker,
Flip! that first string of pearls through  
the Summer air.

Such a sad day
I interviewed for a cemetery grounds keeper position in rememberence of today.



I Think It's Going to Rain Today
Song
by
Randy Newman
1968,
Song was
covered by many artists, Norah Jones is this one.

Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
Think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend
Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today.

ZOO Nov 2016
Once upon a time, we lived trapped, here-
Inside by our skins
And we were free to like them
Or leave them.

But then, i might miss
When, I first felt my tongue
on the first kiss.

where, I rolled your eyes
remembering you on my way home

whose toes rolled back up inside her shoes
loved me to be pulling her hair

to be liked like this …
to  be inside these sheets.”
to loved just once,
to leaving her
to leaving them
to resist this kind of living!

so I snuck into
your room, To your sleeping, whisper
kiss and leave
And by this way, it will only work

"And If it is true that:
You are only resting
But if you love this
Then it will awaken
As this kiss was meant to do.”

And by this, we are to find
if love is true can love them and leave them
So they can live.

And it was.

And so she did.
ah lobes for lobe love for lobes and globes
ZOO Apr 2017
24 hour dance with wolves
war makes our crimes criminals
downs us of our  ways tastes ta tonka ;millions starved while whites rebuild
embarrassed, holding fingers to head as in horns you kicked US
we are free from each others louses America
whatever walking shadows need
We can survive on such rations
I lived in the hostile grasses where
in the hills you could buy luxury.
ZOO Apr 2017
to be alive
***** pretty little children can
laugh as sons of man

what's not alive, and what has survived,
and what it means
to be alive.

Response to trauma to keep others from feeling the same trauma I went through keeps me from feeling I will ever truly heal from my own,
recovery is so repeatedly vicious,

Life is scary with all the normal experiences.

I love you brothers hang in there.

You are the water, I am the desert
melody,

The first time you brushed against me
and I drew my arms around you
and it gives us a chance to breath.

To such great things you are Croatian
and dew to me
    I put on that coat of life.

With just brush strokes
you invigorate  me,..

I am the desert
with much are we at staked and exiled.
words meaning nothing

To the sudden fall I wheat,
and my own life, tried to save but face, a horrible misunderstood nature of my existence;
all the meaning of life is
I confess was to escape it.

Why am I so dumb
It sits inside me a wall between us, a machete
I couldn’t learn fast enough that I was unhappy.
Instead of saying or affirming “Yes” you take down the past poems.

Bit by bit, the voice inside my head ate and ate.
Leave myself alone.  I didn’t ask for help.  then my period.
The company you keep…why should I have stayed on, or longer.
amazed at the part of me was to say how bothered.
The pencil is the thing, the hand the thing, and erasing is not,
Do I realize when I’m in trouble then my eating hand hates.
Instead of saying or affirming “Yes” you take down the past poems.

I’m angry I’ve not tried to save others, eating bread alone.
What would have happened had I not told on what was said. But left it inside other women to tell me,
Find me Moby, find me Godly, are you a white whale?

Should I be chasing cans like a stray dog, till i make you smile
that is not me but you take me home
I can’t receive if I don’t believe.  so i run away.

every night I’m having one of those recurring dreams
Thrown into the middle of a big city, searching for my baby
NY
and I don’t pickup the gum stick on subway rails
I know its not free candy.

this is me.
