I paint a
picture and stand myself at
the center of the frame.
Upon a green hill
before a stone house.
I look out at you
and wonder what you see.
A table, some chairs,
and dirty dessert dishes.
Discussion of school politics
and federal mandates.
A deep breath,
a sip of coffee,
and a real laugh.
And a sponge to clean up
the spit.
Why do you plague me?
I see you,
no name,
and know you are
named.

But I wrestled with a man of gold

Silicon highways spread through
Data cities and souls.
Light and sunshine bubbled up
And wrought to gray cold,
Pulse and fire extinguished,
Save for
The humming, the humming.

as a victim of
a restless soul.
Hairy brows
and sagging lids
I wonder what
AGE will
capture
next.
The sun pours its beams
over the horizon they do flow
coating everything that is embraced
soaking into the earth.
It is an odd state of affairs
when I must destroy my body
to stay alive.
Yellow buslines along streets,
Angry, boisterous yellow lines
Shouting and choking
On their own vomit.

October Moon
I sent a smiling moon,
a pouting moon came back.
I sent a harvest moon,
and nothing was returned.
(man, this new format is doing things to me)
He wanted to be someone, he said.
I said, well you already are.
A man, a carer, a rover among stars.
He said that was not enough.
I said well life is tough.
We sat and listened to the stars.
The sky got mellow, and we heard from afar
a sound that said you are what you are.
I had to give a kid a test!
I had to give a kid a test!
I had to give a kid a test!
Because he was dumb.
I gave a kid a test!
I gave a kid a test!
I gave a kid a test!
Darn, this is one dumb kid!
How do I tell his mom
her kid is dumb?
