"Summertime"

10/19/07

the poet picks up from the artist
the sap.. the crier
the inheritor of left overs
the stomach of society
to spill milk; to smudge
to wipe eyes in directions
deserving of roadways,
pathways.. more thoughtways
to move thoughts
to remove...

"With What Want"

10/29/07

we got lazy & decided to talk
hung over from too much thought
too many years on the run
exercise.. at this point seemed like fun

balk at the thoughtrapist
predecessor of idea of thoughts
to have & to give

widen acceptance
your intrinsic wealth for understanding
want sometimes redeems easily with thought
want sometimes offends
stubborn releases in good purpose

and want sometimes stresses souls tied to sidings
giving lives instead of chances
to let go, accept and discover
...what trust did not.

"Lucy's Jealous"

10/28/07

lucy's jealous of the heat
the warmth finding bones, the brain
to let go the pain
deep, deep & true

lenny's got the attention of heat waves
raging pain shaking hands
making peace and letting each other go

no drugs, no doctors
just water dancing in radio waves
hands immersed, those lucky enough
to be near copper radios.

"Blink of an Eye"

10/25/07

red, blue, red, blue, ---- STREAKS ----
thoughts, calls, panic
minds race, predict, prepare
seconds flash before dashboards

mothers & fathers become widows and widowers
sons & daughters erase
brothers & sisters erode
life un-happens for one of the players
and then life unveils

"Racism Relative"

10/23/07

accusation loves racism
natural disasters, terrorism
stereotism, race perpetualism
your esp, your agenda

"There's Always Somewhere"

10/23/07

there's always somewhere i can listen to remember
a time, an instance
where sense was made for memory where i can rely

"you'll see it's all clear,
you were meant to be here." -ELP
a moment for me in time integrating meaning
a reference supporting reality
a miscue for the auditories;
they just miss it for this

the scenery of shapes, buried; protected
for discovery when i need to dig
or found & consumed in a welcome mind

"sometimes" is a deceptive, unreliable friend
though somewhere provides space ... to feel,
and to think ... and relate;
not hands wiping, pushing faces clockwise.

"One Sunday"

10/21/07

the mornings silence interrupted
loud voices, a conversation
invisible sound makers
nowhere in sight

looking, looking ...
a couple, a pair
bicyclists boisterous in conversation
one sunday, down west main
they owned the mornings theatre.

"Truth Dies"

10/08/07

throw your rose
for the intent of your passion
will withstand their eyes & pavement
where your passion laying down a rose,
consoles convictions in eyes
waiting and waiting
for their reason

"American Sunset"

10/12/07

skies speak dark clay grey
eyes heavy after thoughts of an American day
the physical sun has set hours ago
the mind belonged only now exhausted
beyond remembered boundaries

an American sunset has transposed from
sight in beauty to a thought process.
simple eyes cry at the loss they recognize in sight...
Consciences cry

two hundred and thirty-two years
cries in silence to native ears
a world ignores but somehow fears
if only for today
an American sunrise.

"Conclusions Are Locked"

10/01/07

like that perfect ear piece
fitted by Miles Davis himself
all thoughts get stopped
cause ... conclusions locked

bliss no longer resonates easy answers
sweat only cools sore muscles on their
own expelled energy
not labor under the sun

that eager answer you’re looking for’s
found ago
and now you find it ..
drawing the finish line before you
