I always wanted to be that random style of writer Writing about things which have no connection In reality but they are connective only by the ingenuity Of his genuflection; the circumvention of his Circuitous routing, his plaintive perturbing petulance Which insists on stacking things of different orders Flying birds together of different species If I could write something of the ticking of clocks Not as though the ticking were of premeditated duration Embedded in metal tracks around perimeters Of prevaricated die-cast hours; but as though the ticking Were only a random fixture of a theoretical day In which random clocks ticking played a minor role During the still life of which a poet happened along And copied it all down dutifully, not caring if Ticking clocks were related to pitchers of Forsythia Or falling off of cliffs into the Aegean; The only task of the poet to capture it all And let the reader sort it out later In the random tracks of his circuitous brain: Whether the pitcher was full of sea Or the sea was stealing into the pitcher One blue, serendipitous drop at a time And where no clocks were keeping time.

Painting of a Drop of Seawater
Ice crystal image genuflection upon the ground Frosted wind passes around you it speaks with a howling sound Sleet smooths your surface your body of crystal mirrors portray your soul Sun light captured within you speaks a language of answered prayers Rainbow whispers of reassurance to this purity of soul, the woman who kneels upon the ground of freshly fallen snow.

Ice Statue
He touched our hands But unconcernedly this famous man And would not look us in the eye For fear of contact or what might be worse, connection And we could hardly blame him, for after all He had each day been singled out for close inspection By ones like us, in awe of his celebrity Circled in the shade of his perfection Hoping for the star-dust sprinkle of acuity Or sparkling eyes, admission to his inner cult and clan He wore blue jeans And scuffed sneakers as a badge of proof Of his coolness and unconcern While we his audience with concealed attention Enviously eyed his hairy confidence, unconsciously Imitating in each phrase that low convention Made small adjustments to our store-bought suits and ties And nodded several times in bright pretension Made small amendments to our smiles and lies Flicked photo-phones in pursuit of custom and routine He gave a speech A flippant interview, this famous creature A well tossed phrase, a rounded cliche Poured forth like brandy in a glass, convivial Or apple cider-ed vinegar in pewter mugs A sardonically French-accented phrase habitual Well humored, heavy lidded with testosterone At interlocutor women with the pens and pads Delivered in a low and purring monotone For all the world as lovers, each to each He stretched a smile A modulated shift of teeth and beard "Genius? Not I"  with deprecation "My shallow intellect, so poor and so ephemeral" Delivered in a tone that mocked inclusion While we assumed an elegance, unintentional A nonchalance that shields the wide charades Unmoving in our breathless, but conventional Genuflection to the the notion that pervades                                                       Our addictive appetite now sated. For a while.                                                                                                                                  He kissed their cheeks And stroked their arms, with sensuous ambivalence But absently, as if he cared so little In his farewell. 'A bientot' he said and 'Au revoir' And slipped away amongst the moving Milan crowds Creative and creator, irredeemably a star With, in his wake the smiling scriveners staring At his retreating back in Stark excitement In the middle of the circling and squaring, at The alpha-wolfic effigy. The Shepherd and his sheep.

Some tell me Blackpool's cool, so I sit in the cool, watching a darkening sky, wrapped against the onshore breeze, stifling a day's end sigh. Starlings do maths in the sky, imaginary numbers, imaginative paths, sweeping, forming swarming, hereditary helix, genetic genuflection.

Mending the Day
Sitting at my lonely barside I kneel before the patron saint Of castaways, And raise but two fingers. The peanuts and peasants Have much in common, They are roasted, salted, Glazed with a succor No sweeter than savage starlight They serve to compliment The fine layer of salt On the rim of my cocktails The liquor as **** as their company. This is the rite of reverence That droops my eyelids This is the gleaning genuflection Of the day's stale bread.

Genuflect Is what they expect But I rather kneel down To my muse up above And the pancake Is supposed to cure But lately I’ve found It’s only a thorn I don’t belong here In these holy places Baptized myself a million times Haven’t been granted no graces All I have left to do Is to wait on the angels With their bagpipes And feathers And figure out whether I’m worthy Whether I’m worthy

Genuflection
The cold is my commander, it taunts me, while it steals my sheaths of warmer cleaving skin sections exposed by its notions and collected conscious. The sounds are complicated, the moons azurean hue resembles the coldness of my cigarette's embers blue, and then the commander shucks my final breath away. It isn't something that I barely feel, but rather something that lightly see. It's hoarfrost births its fickle shell of hardrime on the last of those interstices I once called my fingers. And from this choke, this frozen voice is detained by the vox ice amplifier that steals each noise. Besides, in an interruption I hear our whorish neighbors score of shouting scripted shouts, and screaming scripted screams. Each day she becomes less and less like any real human being. It's hard to believe that behind these walls that shield me from the albicant and atrocious heraldry winter casts me through, these sounds are concentric like limited Earth words written in the prompts that some ill and wanton succubus would. If only to lure herself from the pains she gained while lying to those amidst her closest ties. I am further distressed, though fully dressed narrowly watching bits of frozen water interlace themselves beneath freezing in the corners of my mind. When until the shaking and commandeering of my mortal sounds, disperse amidst the ferocity that Spring white snow absconds. The tremulent vocal chords are hailed by a hard-rimed **** who ensuingly rips the cantering spirit from each last place it stood. Only those who know this wind could speak about the way it genuflects and obsesses on these rules. This freezing genuflection hails to every servant of its rein, I can barely exhale the inspiration that rises from the head, until any skin exposed to air is reclaimed by my commander for good. Then each neighbor's head may lilt upon the piste, and pray for something more balmy than negative eleven degrees.

You know what it’s like to be alone with god? (long version) (An infinite rustle of ideas Silenced in this steady heart.) Here my shoes fall freely god knows I’m hungry for primitive answers; you see I relate to life’s barefoot minimum while maintaining a full set of godly lotus lashes, who’s petals fall like thin paper trails where I rest my mind as I savor earths crooning tempo At night with you god the fires burn like morning coals Just enough to start the coffee, Just enough to wash my face Just enough to sip away night trails made of lust from another existence. genuflection in prayer is my choice because this position lends me a humbleness that makes clear my own yearnings, my desires are purified into understanding that I can never stop this flow of desire. I pray with connective tissue smells of jasmine and myrrh and pinpoint the dust bowls of fury hiding north of my shoulder blades. I am soothed by the contrast, where I bow my head and make my own pearls of wisdom to follow, you hummm to my knowing, you dance to my foibles like prince did in purple rain. You never ask for love, I Just feel like love. I ponder: don’t you think god that this fermenting human existence is innocent after all? after the fall (after birth love’s forgotten all knowing) for it is in birth I am blinded by my mothers cooing call and now, that’s all. It really does not matter why I forgot I remember now All of this ‘knowing’ triggered by my failings Triggered by the lack of ‘others’ to fill me up Triggered by the desperation to know who I really am because of my … failings I look above and our likeness is astounding, I may faint in the truth of it ALL… I am flush to the bone I fall Landing in the crucifix position Against the wall of Desdemona’s illusions I lift the veil I open up to your call (The All In All) You said, “and greater works shall ye do than me” You said, “be still and know that I am god”. “The seed does not fall far from the tree,” you said The busy bees came through imagined murderous pesticides That was my life (imagined) and their words hummed me towards my alignment “accept your magnificence” they buzzed then god said: ”change your focus and let your failings fall like tears (did you say duckwater god?) …magnify the joy” And you will see The I (In You) And The (You In) Me.

weeping willows dangling their thin lithesome leafed branches curved in genuflection caressing the   surface of  life giver Aqua   as if the brimming pool perhaps a creation of its own weeping from leaf through root to leaf seeping age old unbroken circle of life memory of fingertips rife trailing ripples that won't collapse Gently did I scull the rented skiff disheartened grief stricken and stiff opposing tomorrow's defeat my heart heavy struggling to beat as if lead had bound it in straps already my mind's in sorrow seeing my sadness on the morrow the Greyhound bus diminishes until it slowly vanishes leaving me standing with our scraps of long hot steamy summer nights holding to each other despite the sweat that passion delivers though in August's heat we shiver cold promenades, foggy wraps through damp dense swirling wraiths we tail pretending to be on the trail of Jack the Ripper in our hood the hammered trilling of our blood when passion and play overlap last spring your pirouettes in flowers demanding all of my powers to not burst in flames of lust my love for you just that robust you kept your feelings under wraps how could our sweet love have come to I need to get away from you a cheap bus ticket to "the Bay" is now an entire world away.

Willows Weeping in Roeding Park
On your knees You will worship For a minute, an hour, a day Elixir of the Gods Closer to Heaven Yet farther away Facsimile, resemblance   Black and white dreams Closed eyes and prayer Torn between the emotions Of the emotionless Empty acts Repeated motions Experience or fantasy Wishes or desires Fear, excitement, and nerves On your knees You will worship And it will resemble truth For a minute, an hour, a day The taste of honesty in lies Will linger in the memory Of the approximation of Heaven

Genuflection
baby the world holds you with complete delight- time rocks you in reverence and seconds and hours are prayers for you. the world is new and yours. it sings and sighs in solar keys and mountains hills and trees are temples with life for living. you are the most beautiful melody each note a psalm and your heart one great balm that soothes us. honey you are pure life your eyes pools of deep genuflection you find love for everything and darling you love so truthfully.

for sophie (with bellows and love)
Who is this man? With hurt in his hands Fallen on one knee; a vassal of Your command “I’ve searched O’ Heart of Hearts! Yet still I found no Lord” On a silent night I shout in nullity Perched fore Heav’nly Body That makes me feel adored In quiet genuflection Near a Sea of Stars I hear the waves thrashing I listen to the Universe roar Granted what light th’ occupied Galaxies could afford Hark! I do declare, Serene Silence said, “A faithful servant of Tranquility lives by his own accord” With a new boldness and candor repose I watched mediocrity shrink and my love for life grow I have heard a new Lord The One left neglected The One we ignored We are One Body interconnected Diffr’nt notes of the same chord *The people long for heaven but life is our reward*

CATACLYSMIC CATECHISM
Wallowing in a shallow pool Time has lost time I run like a fool. Blood pools and pulls. I wish I were running. My cup dipped Halfway full I cry when I taste it. You didn’t cleanse me I want to jump in victory You didn’t fix it. I scream out in confusion. I hear the Lion roar delusion. I cling to your mystery I don’t love your plague You certainly, designed. You are not vague. A missing piece I thought you built me. Evolution Incompatible with “thee” My hands folded without a crease Trying to impress you Speaking blessings and peace Sanity is all the same They tell me it’s good to… Good to love you A spec of blackness on a cloth Quandaries in the mud I see a ***** fog in prayer. Wondering if your there Mad God I kneel back. Loving God This isn’t fair.

Genuflection
_Confessor_, I am reborn, Vain with ash and frankincense; Absolved of my inverted pleasures, Reconciled to the morality of suffering. _Confessor_, I am returned, Predestined to gravely offend; Nimbly contrite in my genuflection, Gracefully weak-kneed in my resolve. _Confessor_, I am reborn, Although aged by my discretion; Examined satisfactorily by my conscience, Blessedly relieved through your encouragement. _Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa._

Mea Culpa
Mary Go Round she lies in the garden her mind consumed in dreams spinning this way then that way it seems she can almost breathe in the smell of her lover mixed in with the daffodils and lilacs and one other her pretty blue dress flutters in the fall breeze leaving her soft legs uncovered above the knees she dreams his touch underneath but it is her own skillfully manipulative fingers loosing free a moan after all it is her temple this is her genuflection wonders if her lover dreams of her in his reflection she should go she knows that is the proper answer but if she leaves who then will lovingly romance her spinning in the garden where wild kisses land galore round and round goes Mary confused by this for sure torn betwixt and between her lips tremble for an answer on her tiptoes pirouette like a ballet dancer again her mind rolls thru the clouds of blissful rushes feeling his hands on her supple ******* tongue flickered hushes she feels his eyes staring into her own eyes of grey take me now my darling please never go away as she awakens from weary torment thrown away the chains the release of her special fragrance releases all the pains the morning rain drops breathing in the sound from high above we smile and watch Mary Go Round Gomer LePoet ....

Mary Go Round
The *** dreams                Are                         The                                  Worst The ones where I can smell you, The ones where you taste my sweat, The ones where we feel our flesh become two-in-one, The ones where you see me bared naked and true, The ones where I know what you sound like when you *** A squeak    A moan       A scream            A wail               A cry           A mumble       A murmur    A whisper A silence. I want you, Inside and out. I want to kiss your tulips, And lick your lifeline. I want to make love to your mind, And **** your fantasies. I could tell you all the things I want to do, But I’d rather excite your imagination. I want to (inhale) you      and (exhale) me. I want flushed cheeks, gasping breath, glazed eyes, curled toes. I want genuflection And glossolalia. You breathe life into my lungs. You light my fire. You fill me with passion. And I am so ******* ****** at you.
