broken

 

24 oct 2013

auburn, wash.

 

her painted faces in his mist and fog

tainted traces of trysts thus thronged

by their mind-freaks doing soul-tricks

quickened by shit while imagining it

albeit both shriek before the silence

per midnights' führers and couriers

as dew streaks slow on broken mirrors

reckoning their doggerel bed of wolves

 

 

contentment

 

3 nov 2013

friday harbor, san juan is.

 

november's kiss then cool caress

before icy grind by winter's bite 

and frore finesse mid endless night

yet, for now, the autumn's end

oh contentment, tho' death foments 

his shrouded smirk, hence to it

wrenching a grin per smile within

 

 

purview

 

4 nov 2013

friday harbor, san juan is.

 

endless roads in the mind's realm

a thousand seas at a dream's helm

 

kiln of soul burns lustfully white

as each fuss turns ashen and trite

 

slightly angled, then widely curved

by rare purview of peace unreserved

 

 

strait

 

7 nov 2013

sidney, b.c.

 

her kiss stings, accordingly bestows

ushering a forth-cum-ing wintertide

briny sips, then respiring lips, slow

low, bold to rimy skin, thus fits pied

stutter-stepped in time's cold throes

 

 

bit

 

9 nov 2013

victoria, b.c.

 

bit for hemp, likewise, corn for coin

as gov't mules and pachyderms purloin

the individualist's private treasure

per the centralist's deviant measures

and latter's lovely enrapturing folly

of universal trolly and martial volley

ah the monopolies by monopolized guns

ergo man and land, strung then wrung

 

 

rainfall

 

10 nov 2013

mill bay, b.c.

 

bedewed coolly by rainfall's fate

subdued by the sustained spate

resisting the hate else the cost

moments lost and trodden into sod

 

 

chair

 

13 nov 2013

lincoln, calif.

 

the goddamn tan vinyl

withal cold impressions

dormant and recessed

such solos in recital

versed by old ruminations

tormentingly expressed

 

 

economy

 

17 nov 2013

rocklin/sacramento, calif.

 

bartering new shoes for brews

wood or stone, hewed then honed

or cloth sewn, condoned by two

trading true, mutually by them

else begin unwanted intrusions

by unwarranted fusions of laws

and creeds, causing the slowing

and lowing of liberty's economy

 

 

phantoms

 

11 apr 2014

savannah, ga.

 

liken the lurking phantoms at dusk

admittedly random, eve's passion must

gather the lovers, loners and hermits

as scattered matter to hypnotic orbits

while poets scribble endless dribble

stoics quibble and gamble in ramble

odd stalkers gawk then gawkers stalk

as tourists stare akin voyeurs ad hoc

thus all choose or refuse per twist

by turn of tryst or yearn mid the mist

o'er marbled fronts, cobbled squares

garbled stunts and hobbled affairs

 

 

mannequins

 

13 apr 2014

st. augustine, fla.

 

lilted notes of tilted piano keys

or melded hertz flirting to flee

weds to cigar smoke and perfume

equally, as attar-tokens that loom

crowning a hundred heads or more

gowning mannequins as wine pours

 

 

yearn

 

14 apr 2014

okeechobee, fla.

 

acting familiarly

as thespians tragic

shit, the mimics

of subconscious magic

though pang the twain

in odd sympathy

the concerted yearn

for full symphony

 

 

sorceress

 

16 apr 2014

key largo, fla.

 

o sorceress of the wayward isles

graced and styled by mantles wild

'tween stints like cafe aisles

flitting mid the grins and wiles

as well the grails of coveted guile

 

 

highways

 

17/18 apr 2014

key largo, fla./hattiesburg, miss.

 

charioting like thanes

trite steel mid lanes

as white mice in tubes

darting right for food

harking left at fools

ah, to cool by old tunes

so to mutter odd runes

while highways prune

this damn way and that

per fuckin' tit-for-tat

by the governmental scat
