    Mirror, mirror on the wall
    who is the ugliest of them all?

    Not you chum, you're still too fair
    but wait a while, you're getting there.

    I found a stone shaped like a heart
    Upon the sandy shore.
    She said it looked just like her butt.
    She's right! I like hers more.

    Low Roller

    The tumbleweed blows in,
    shoots the breeze in ghost-towns
    then whispers its farewell.

    Four Seasonal Poems

    1.
    At the dawn-tide of summer
    Not yet soft bitten by drooling frost
    We may walk nightly without expense
    Except the expiring sense of joy.


    2.
    As I walked the parks maimed by autumn
    I felt all things by that moment whetted -
    And knew it to be a vindication of living.

    3.
    A scouring death
    Wets my window-
    But it is yet
    To scar the glass.


    4.
    In winds that are frugal
    With their convoy
    The fallen leaves do not dance
    Out of the wet grass -
    They only shiver.

    Sad Truth

    Those who speak of love eternal
    Lie about the truth’s hard kernel;
    Love is fleeting, love is cruel
    Far less flavoursome than gruel.

    Why is the Night Sky Dark?

    Infinity? The Gods confessed,
    "Are not we now so nicely blessed
    With finitude? Let skies be blue
    And when it's night get darker, too."

    For Good Reason


    God doesn’t like me much;
    He’s justified, I guess,
    but the only consolation is
    the Devil likes me less.

    A Rose

    A rose blossoms

    would you see me origami

    I remember
    having to sit
    down, as I heard
    those awful words.

    You’re fit, thank God,
    you’ll get through this.
    You don’t know who
    gave this to you?

    a fiscally
    transmitted disease.

    Gone

    The house of cards that once was there
    Was tumbled by a breath of air
    And all the folk who played inside
    Have gone to who-knows-where.

    music flies
    sideways
    across the
    highways
    the beautiful
    causeway
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    in freedom
    is rhythm
    an almost
    sychism
    to a ritual
    prism
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    All love is nonsense
    it changes from person to person
    from time to time
    What is eternally true is Trust
    nothing can change it ever
    unless you broke it!

    a fantasy
    starts indecise
    and then takes
    off to find a while
    to free its hide
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly
