Mythical Bird, show me your secret Hatch forth from your shell Plumage of orange and scarlet Emerge glorious from whence you dwell Fiery Bird, you must reveal Your astounding, magical ways Where from these lives you steal Forever reincarnating well into your days Aflamed Bird, you must teach How you reinvent yourself anew With no help within reach Without aid, effortlessly you flew Majestic Bird, take me in Blanket me with your wing Listen and acknowledge my sins With all your wisdom and heart could bring Magical Bird, will you impart? What knowledge you keep Only then, I may start To make my way out from the deep Enchanted Bird, you have to help I'm desperate to rise like you **** your head and hear my yelps Of all the things I'm trying to undo Celestial Bird, if only you could know Intricate workings of this unfounded fixation Why I seem to always wallow An eternal target of sorrow's attention Imaginary Bird, will you demonstrate Your amazing fantastical flight Dipping, gliding, in the air you gyrate Aggressive dance with gravity you fight Mystical Bird, won't you display For unworthy eyes, would you give? Seemingly easy, aloft you stay Even when you know you'd die before you'd live Wondrous Bird, oh how perfect you are I am in awe, I am swooning How you become one with the stars Making the best of the short time you're living Secretive Bird, is it time? Reducing yourself down to ashes Ready to absolve your stint of crimes Reborn perfect, free from previous gashes Ensorcelled Bird, please don't retreat Back into your familiar cocoon I'm uncertain if again we'd meet Just afraid I might be gone too soon

In the dimly lit chamber, we set the scene. An owner and his pet, a game of primal and prey. She kneels like an eager dog, a collar around her neck. He stomps his feet and keeps her obedience at play. The owner, like a magician, keeps tricks up his sleeve. He wants his pet to learn— to be his student and please. Commanding her to crawl, to fetch and beg. Waiting for him to call her a good little pet. She barks and whimpers, a puppy in passion. Spins three times and licks her master’s feet without a whine. The pet surrenders to her master’s might. She delivers his sturdy leather boots in a straight line. With a flick of the whip, the pet curls in elation. Her master chuckles at her sounds of temptation. Submitting to the cynicism of ******* and discipline. She is flogged like a plebeian, forgetting she’s a citizen. Pet and master, a bond so strong. The two are bound by zeal, craving one another. She wallows in the comfort of her belly rubs and treats. And runs around with a rush of red in color. She goes through treacherous training. And yelps if she’s ever caught complaining. Waiting for a tasteful gift: the eternity collar. When she is ready, he puts it on with honor.

An Owner and His Pet
Right now, as we speak, there's a little boy, aged five Pushed aside on the corner of his mat, where he naps His fingers are clenched onto shredded crumbs of bread He managed to get his hands on this morning despite his mother's constant nags About having to save the last few bits for his new born sister   Ashes and rubble are his best friends ever since he can remember Disturbance aches him no more For everything he's ever known are dents   He wouldn't know what the other side of the rainbow looks like, let alone both For he's never encountered a rainbow during his yelps of pain Pressure, abundance of destruction, humiliation His innocent weeps never reach aid He is now used to it No more room to present emotion For everything he's encountered will forever be frozen in time He wouldn't know what peace is, ever For contrarily that would be foreign to him Therefore, somewhere in this world, silence takes over This little boy whose whole life has been built on lies and disruption

Somewhere In This World
Gripping ***** locks knotted to his scalp, she kicks him to the road. Glass bottle bits scrabbling under his fingernails; he yelps, dragging away. Their pressed flower daughter clings to the soot-stained wall. She tiptoes his nape into the pavement, drawing a gag and gurgle bubbling out of his throat. Two fingers pull his nose, resting his teeth on the curb. An incisor plinks to the girl’s feet. She hugs it as close as a home.

The Dentist
I just hugged Zoe and I saw her hickies and wanted to kiss her lips over and over just like the day we got high and danced underneath moving lights and she was in my tutu and her blonde hair felt right tickling my face and the boy who is supposed to love her didn't notice and it made us laugh and laugh because if we didn’t laugh; we would have cried. Why do we love to leave behind bruises on lips and necks and arms and eyes and teeth? It hurts but no matter what, no matter how much I crush my teeth together to hide my yelps, it always turns into this beautiful, beautiful mark that doesn't want pressure and looks like a sunset borrowed it it’s colors because *no one, not even a bruise, wants to be ugly*.

i saw the greater part of creation succumb to the piracy of numbness- the nimbus rage of torpedo cigars blowing blue-grey smoke into the dark lashes of love-struck little ***** thirsty angels with tangled curls of hair bashing their heads against bathroom walls screaming under their breath, not enough. i saw the green plastic- and her orange eyes and the soap-bubbles on the sidewalk and the soap frothing all over the sidewalk and the glass that took off like pristine bullets in every direction and- blood running over the cum-covered lip of the curb, flowing into the street- down to the drain, dripping into the hungry orifices of the big metal grate into sewer pipe salvation- destination unhindered by your humanity. god, this must be insanity and not even the good kind. but let's go watch the fire-works up on the roof- crawl out the attic window i let you go first to watch the electric calico trickle down your legs like a promise. i like the birds that fly in and out of your hair- the handkerchief at your hip, i like the crazy and the cool- the too cute for comfort and the fake angsty danger of your darkside. like morphine- the band or the drug? you're ironically detached with your semi-satanic languidity- and overdue serenity [i got a few overdue books at the library.] [they closed the library a long time ago.] i like to play catch with your presence- our eyes with the back-and-forth, the half-sent glances when we think the other isn't looking. but we were always looking- or at least i was always looking at you. i could see half inside of you. you were always half-naked- in the scanty rags of the latest fashion. when you breathed it was like nectarine noises- and muffled yelps of love. i watched your shirt move up and down on your chest and told you about "never knows best" it seems i've seen the greater part of creation succumb to the supreme softness and the best laid plans of motorcycles and mini-vans fall to pieces in my palms. and you were the greatest creation i saw on the roof that day. don't bat another pretty little eyelash at those tiny flashing pieces that go past like ricochets it's just one more night of strangeness and then you can be free again.

are feelings of love felt alone, feelings of love at all? or selfish yelps for attention borne of boredom & a sense we only hold on our own of childish - - - - idleness. singularity less; more independence from a whole the only company he keeps is furniture together with the furniture of the house he sits, with seven seats left empty, the curtains tales appear to grin without validation from another he feels like a child standing the school's final bells rung the bustle of the day has droned now dissipated the bustle of the day irritated when it droned, he longed for home for the bus as he waits for the bus the quiet surrounds hold tight but hold cold like a fridge door keeps, it clutches, encloses the school yard empty he stands; singular; out of place in the surrounds the school bleeds terror when empty The laughs & shouts & jeers & footsteps keep the wholesomeness whole empty of shouts a graveyard now the ghosts of the day linger & they finger your buttons they push your tenderness they kneed out they **** (with their cold digits they **** just like the furniture does. just like the furniture in the house laughs when uninhabited it silently jeers 'Why so many seats mate?' it pokes with its linen digit; fuzzy but cold as it continues 'you're alone waiting for someone to come by and pick u up & take u back to home

in the presence of the furniture
so many loud yelps barking voices clacking at each other believing that their ignorance and unabashed rudeness will get results    hurray for the strong shouldered head held high who ignore such brazen brashness of the moronic    bravo to you that can stop an imbecile dead in his tracks by a stone cold even gazed eye meet eye stare   stopping the foolish without uttering a word.

intelligent confrontation
1 Screams in the night, Sleeping all day. Yelps of pain, And cries of anger. ****** torture, Mind disruption, Soul disappearance Tears in the light Screams in the night. 2 Terror through and through, Scared thoughts of pain. Living in sadness, Then despair, Life drained. Dark appears. Nothing left. All taken and blue, Terror through and through.

Terror Through and Through - 2011
a beaten man bleeds, but lives boldly trees, leaves and ****** skin diseases : before we bleed, we scream i’ve screamed; we bleed; i’ve done it all and we’re here together in sickness, i have seen the wall of sound that frightens me in health, i’ve heard the yelps of a beautiful young dog with coins for eyes and golden silk for a coat in insanity, i’ve found myself, twisted, i know, but i am lying there; content in life, i am everything all of the time in death, i’ve seen the truth in venice, my gondola has spilled over into a stream of consciousness which i have not known of in paris, i’ve slept at the bottom of the seine in corfu, i’ve basked in warmth and love in moscow, i’ve seen a man’s heart and a woman’s soul be married in the church, i have loved, bled and screamed my hunger has not been satiated; bolder now, i’ve been louder in a quiet field; i’ll lie with you; i’ll bleed you dry; i’ll replenish you; i’ll love you; i’ll write our life stories on the surrounding woods i’m beginning again; i’m burning fuel to start the end of my consumptive nature i digress, i digress, i aggresively digress

Let's talk about this jazz club that lives in my cellphone in 1950 something with Chet Baker back from the dead. Let's toast to random notes taking flight into the city in the middle of nothing nights we've known or been familiar with. Let's shake hands cordially with the unfamiliar as in "deal", or "peace be with you" as if in church, tipping hats at that stranger passing by at the crosswalk some late evening in spring alongside dandelions sprouting forth from the pavement. Let's read between breaks of beats Kerouac must have hit in 1950 something San Francisco in yelps into the moonlit stages of the balcony of his boxcar boxcar boxcar gone by in a mad blur with whatever graffiti'd message of hope it bore on its sides. Let's hitch into the unknowingly infinite by way of the pen's mighty point. Let's unlearn the way syllable by syllable and demolish languaged signs like hurricane force candor blowing down fact-ory made terms and political decorum as smoke from the pages of their corporate handbook joins the Chet Baker solo note pilgrmage into the holy skyline. Let's move side by side unspoken as those jazz notes he forgot to play. Let's fill in those blanks with uninformed confidence beyond our abilities and grasp the unsayable names of our dreams remmebered. Let's see in seconds passing like bums inebriated with the holy moments gone too soon. Let's talk about nothing but this sacred second at hand on this clock unseen pointing overhead to the face of the moon gone full and hungry for attention. Let this happen only now. Only then will we talk about where it's going.

This morning breakfast was two coconut macaroons and a novelty- sized pecan pie. All from the cafeteria.        When you’re going it alone, it’s the small things. I can still hear the echoes of sleep as it recedes, 8AM, throaty yelps - panic -   and it slurps down the drain.         **** I’d give anything for a drain snake. **** I’d give anything for black coffee and a hood on this ******* coat. Just above the below and below the upper,         I’m hovering somewhere in midfield. But we didn’t cover this coordinate system in geography, or what to do when you’re drowning in waves of self-righteousness and the desire to be hip.        I need that hood. And probably new shoes. When your roommate is an egg-shaped vampire optimism can be hard to come by. Her munching marks the stroke of midnight,        and I reach for the sleeping pills. Oh for the perfumed winds of personal space. Oh for the prairies of carpet and private bathrooms. Oh to have hot water at 9PM.         Sing sweetly of home ye golden-thighed youths.

an ode to college
have I not held a fruit in so long? one that is this organic and whole an apple a good grip, a solid fit like a hand another hand to hold that I had not held but had wished to hold more longingly than a piece of fruit; which speaks directly to my orthorexia in loud blows of chicken-bone-in-my-throat yelps and laments it screams: **I WOULD RATHER HOLD AN ICE CREAM CONE IN ONE HAND IF I GOT TO HOLD YOUR HAND WITH MY OTHER HAND THAN HOLD A DUMB APPLE IN MY HAND WITH THE OTHER EMPTY** an apple a good grip, a solid fit my eyes watch the bulb in your throat bounce up and down when you laugh (you laugh more than most people do and I love that about you); when you silently swallow after nodding and listening, engaging my eyes with the rings of your deep brown irises; when you gulp down a gin & tonic or Stella or horrid spiced wine gone luke warm from the cold rain; I watch the apple bounce up and down; a good grip, a solid fit, I’d throw it away (any day) to curl my fingers around an ice cream cone

The Winter Feast In the Glass forest Snow falls And trees Stand Darkly visible Beneath Ancient crowns of Snow and ice In these creaking limbs Nothing changes - The slow viscosity of time Drapes the boughs in Delicate shards that Swallow light But Over here In dark stains Beneath old eaves Famined eyes slide among Rivers of shadow Pursuing the warm glow of life - In an instant They absorb the warm hapless thing Whose bright shrieks tear At the fabric of shadows The beasts feed - Their crippled little yelps Resonate Death through the Forest where Time shivers and breaks - From dark boughs Gleaming Thorns of ice whisper To earth In the silent thunder of snow Satisfied The beasts leave - A sacrifice of blood And bone Is made - Crimson tears bloom In the snow - Time gathers the vibrant colour in its Crystal embrace High above Winter winds Caress the old boughs That lovingly Creak and whisper In the Glass forest

Chatter she. what are u listening to? me.  melancholy song writers broken love tunes she. ugh.  why? me.  wanted to see how deep into the bed I could sink, till you came a looking to play with me, my spirits to raise, a game of capture the flag indoors --————— Aural vs. Oral her night dress rides up, I awake to an undressed waist and thigh, take advantage of the pomp & circumstance, cause i believe whole heartedly in waiste not, want more as tongue performs its repertoire of magic tricks, i.e. reciting poems, to the standard whelps and yelps of “oh its just you,” keep hearing little tiny whispers but not those accustomed sweet nothings? turns out she is listening to her book, quite the mesmerizer, on her new cordless earbuds which are tablecloth covered by her blondini tresses upset? nah. applauded her multimedia tasking, but took it as a challenge, my efforts redoubled she didn't seem to mind now she wakes me up to show me, Surprise! her cordless earbuds, in place sigh. --——————- Ordering Coffee weekends, get coffee in bed in my 19 oz. porcelain cup from Toronto, standing order is: fill it to the rim, extra cream she says.   isn't ironic! that is exactly what I charge for my coffee payable in advance

ogdiddy's explicit bedtime stories
she was a peregrine & appeared to me shimmering in the primordial morning between purgatory & hell talons like a crucial valve-handle carrying me outside the gaudy dream my heart's vagrancy the latent tendency i had of putting chemicals into my body despite the ugly consequences one man's poison another man's high now sunlight fractures into spectra wind blows thru century-old oaks becomes tangled in my nipple-length blond hair as we march hand-in-hand thru these narrow streets the pinched labyrinth the last dusk light this swamp she was a peregrine the hungarian turul genteel brown eyes watching me howl at the midnight moon & yip like a fox at the first dawn light now she shares her own breathy yelps with the pillow like fumes of lavender sprayed in a strand of oaks i know for a fact she has claws she swore she'd never use them to hurt me but sometimes i let her anyway i need to feel those dead fingernails buried in my living shoulder-blades propelling me into a new kind of manhood redeeming my weaknesses weaseling into my shorts pains & insecurities melting like cloud's spit down the windowpane lazy & safe on a warm sunday morning wrapped together in the skin of this gyrating palace this is no longer casual desire: joni mitchell sound-tracked our first makeout sesh as stars bloomed fat behind a surly multitude of clouds over a tar-colored lake so if you think i'm ever letting her go you're a ******* pants-on-fire

My toes Are frozen From the harsh November chill Cheeks flushed and I had to hold back Panting Breaths And SCREAMS In the darkness of the woods Yellow beam of the Flashlight My lantern and Faint clicking of Dog's tags and Leaf crunching My guide. Crunch Crunch Crunch Go the fallen leaves And what if I die out here Or get Lost Huddling in the darkness As the Beam Fades Oh God The sounds And what if What What Was That A bobbing shadow on a tree trunk No more, no less It's the flashlight Distorted images I don't KNOW But I know I need to get home With Or Without The stupid BEAGLE With the injured Shoulder So hurt He yelps If you look at it I don't know That I Can trust Him out there In that dark night But I can't Trust myself Not to Panic

Crushing Autumn Forest Silence
arms spread way out, head down, head up--the line toed. tearing screams and yelps... bloodied moon and dry land, the fine lines of this phenomenal world cut like clenched teeth. chanting pregnant clouds. tongue's ties to thirst, opening land and pounding drum...creature crawl of delirium. birds of prey drawing large blue eyes that will not blink when their talons seize. rain the dance, dance the rain...down, down, down! i had such visions of water girl, now i want to drink your mouth.

Rain Dance
Those greasy, slimy, whickered faces. The raunchy day old grubby look. Face of a torn up werewolf and body of a useless human. The filthy high stench of pickle and sour croute odor rising, the dreadful slump walks of the unloving creatures. The way they look puts chills on your bones that crawl up to the center of your brain. That one eyed loose tooth taunt that stares at you every night is a sin. The gruesome body that makes a horror in a child’s eye is evil. With the stained, tattered, grump and lump, deep dished in sewer and horrifying clothes that aged rapidly, theres no way you’ll live a week or so. Their screeching scary moan that’s deadful to any. Its mind and body yelps for the organs of a live one. Cold and empty; the once lived corpse that haunts and attacks like no other. No way in mind it can tell you’re there, but it can sense your frightful fear. It rises from its ground to seek out flesh. Be aware, awakened, cautious, wise, and high up from the ground onto your precious feet. These kinds of reckless thieves can steal any living soul without a care. It’s there to do its time. It’s a zombie.

*And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah* a cry you hear at night (my nighttime vocabulary), the same repertoire as the daytime residents, yelps and screeches, groans and screams, bleating whelps and yelps, grunts and curdling silent  low moans and pierced wails, crues du cœur, (cries from the heart)  but at night when these orchestral sounds are released without modification, freed from the governor of self-consciousness, the embarrassment of waking mirrored witnesses, atonalities as raw as a violin string snapping, the terrible sounds, twice as harsh as the scrape roughened roaring sound of the  hoarse word, raw, when spoken out loud but I count them all as friends, these then my nighttime vocabulary companions. each deed, each sin, committed, lifelong repetition, dances in a chorus line, across my eyelashes, each demanding my punishment with a different matching sound; the reciprocal noises of the lives I shed, the lives I've taken, the forsaken forsakings, the blatant ones done with no excuse, no pretend rationale, these are my very own songs of the night, conductor, musician, audience, one for all, all for me, my torment of endless and relentless unforgiving sonality

a cry you hear at night (my night time vocabulary)
clean in the filth where the spectre yelps and bleeds my wrists; bound to betray my hand - i gather gods, too weak to be unloved completely - without vanishing into blue what? spotless in the hell of my blot in the chambers of my open wound... i glue glaciers to the sun's heel and mark time with shadows - i cast into other moons   for lack of a reason to do otherwise. in a world so otherworldly to love me less than snails in clarified butter is to play god. but you have to be God's Fool or the Devil's yes-man saying no. you remark and i flinch in the breeze fantastic. i blast past it, and return; not unscathed but ungathered in the Harvest of our Misadventures. I'm an indentured surgeon cleaving the cancer from the polyp of our necessary illusion. in this Ocean I'm not waving... only drowning in the wishful. i barricade tsunamis to tide-pool the fathoms of our fumes.

Not Waving, But Drowning I
You tell me one thing one day and another thing the next. What takes the cake is you turn around and wonder why is it that I'm perplexed. Even the ugly has its place, what is ugly to one is beautiful to another, that is , once you get past the face. A silent psalm does surround a starry angles glow, wiping the tears of fears. Stand tall when you can. And see that it is you that has you bound. While here, in the mechanics of the mind, as it matters. Some of us just aren't mechanically inclined. So while many move forward, hordes are left behind. A Book talks about this big war of Spirit, and its stress is that it is no game. No politics physical or not can steer it, there will be no passing the buck, no pointing the finger in blame. No longer am I walking with my head in the stars, my feet are flat,  right on the ground. I put my ear to the track and hear that heavy chunk of metal, with its painful mournful sound. I can say that there are other planes, yes, I can think that if I please, though every breath that I breathe, I'd rather announce to my world that I'm just not out to feed. Like it has a pain or purpose that arose out of some need of something that just had to be said. That sleeping dog that you kicked only had a snack of grass before he laid down to take his bed. You had been nudging him with your boot and now he is awake and he yelps and then vomits on your shoes before he commences to growl.. and that godawful Hell will be back, and it's going to extract One Blood Curdling Howl!   The Universe is saying in no so uncertain terms That I had better hold back, that I had better take heed. It isn't just me that gets cut, no it isn't, no, all others bleed. All those ****** good loving deeds that hath spawned better life that I don't know about. On the other shoe, all those hurtful, hostile things, those things that gave Hell for many to carry... hell for many to tell. Never is it one cause, one reaction, and oh, my thoughts and actions, and the shame that comes, coming in fractions of degrees. Then, a breeze broke the solid heat and quelled the sweat and quenched the thirst. You can toast the twisted souls or you can have them cursed.

I can say that there are other planes, yes, I can think that if I please, though every breath that I breathe, I'd rather announce to my world that I'm just not out to feed. Like it has a pain or purpose that arose out of some need of something that just had to be said. That sleeping dog that you kicked only had a snack of grass before he laid down to take his bed. You had been nudging him with your boot and now he is awake and he yelps and then vomits on your shoes before he commences to growl.. and that godawful Hell will be back, and it's going to extract One Blood Curdling Howl!   The Universe is saying in no so uncertain terms That I had better hold back, that I had better take heed.

It is the Hopi Yei making fun of those who have lost their balance in the world today.* Aztec Warrior 9.6.15 youtu.be/XPd9be8R5bA youtu.be/ID-hZ3pVx7w *(Note: first song is called ‘Yeha Noha’ and means “Wishes of Happiness and Prosperity’second song is called ‘Ly-O-Lay-Ale Loya, “The Counterclock Wise Circle Dance” May you find your balance)*

POEM 42
The more you seek the more you know Whether it be in an upstate penthouse Or a lavender tree surrounded bungalow The mind, an unfathomable garden of planted scriptures, undefined. The heart yelps, the voices blow   Initiative galore of intriguing canvases follow One does not see, one does not hear But sense is beyond the limits of sorrow I would like to see, I would like to hear Albeit constant delusions of fear Created to seek what's beyond the border I rest in assurance, one day the tendency of denial won't wander
