taking from fetid
I walk off wildly into
your blazing sunset
taking from fetid
I walk off wildly into
your blazing sunset
Your blazing sunset
burns through me lighting the sky
painting me inside
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
painting me inside
and me outside too bright red
A lobster, I am.
a lobster I am
a book jacket out of sorts
I decorate saws
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
I decorate saws
I try my hands at all steels
I make them smile too

When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

I make them smile too
Sometimes with an easy lilt
Others, with a jilt
"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
Others, with a jilt
shove my heart, from abyss of sorrow
I hear it cry
i hear it cry
whispering tale soon lost
found near the sun set
Found near the sun set
a sign all tattered and worn
Kisses: One dollar
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty

Kisses: one dollar,
a handful of of loose change. Dimes
reflecting sunlight.

reflecting sunlight
the ripples on the water
when will it be still?
when will it be still?
oceans sheeted to glazed glass,
the blower content
and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.
- John Berryman
the blower content
resonates within her pipes
airy notes that rise
I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.
"If you're going to write you better have somewhere to come from." Flannery O'Connor
airy notes that rise
bring back dragons on the wind
returning fortune
returning fortune
made the fat cats lick their chops
a fantasy world
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
