Water Poem

The rain falls in our spring,
And gives the food to the flowers,
The watery cycle forms a ring,
And it starts in with minor showers

In the beginning there is the stream
That flows from the slight trickle,
Carrying further to the dream,
And our fancies it starts to tickle.

It then progresses through the land
Then the stream becomes a river,
The whimsy forces of the moon command
And she will always deliver,

Then it an ocean transforms,
Of crashing rock, storm and wave,
Water cannot be held it informs.
And why should it behave.

Then it’s vapor made by the sun,
Following all the changes as it flows.
We are mostly water everyone,
It’s birth celebrated by rainbows.

Then to the heavens it turns again to rain,
Like family, friends, sky, sun and moon.
As instruments connected in sweet refrain.
For we all whisper it’s tune.

torches

the torch once lit is forever carried,never extinguished, we hold our loves forever burning bright, and even the embers shine. For that brief moment it gave you light in the dark. Even when love turns to cinders and smoulders, and taste vaguely of sugar, salt or ash. The old torches warm and burn forever in the catacombs of our heart.

moon

moon shyly smiling,
behind the cloudy knife edge,
night whispers my name

haiku - zest

the monk hanging from
cliff by plant tiger below,
eat the strawberry

double negative

and so you sit and ramble,
about the losing wins the gamble
folding double to kiss the page,
we pay the war in fights we wage
shadows bright incite we live,... See More
it can't not be double negative

Monday or what spawned my weeks rants

What spawned bad decisions=good stories. My week begins. Monday was a day like any other. Sun was shining. I took out my pressed suit for an interview. All immaculately pressed. Even checked the weather. Drove to the interview place early, they had three streets with the same name in the same industrial park.. Got lost, went to wrong place. Find it. Go in, they suddenly a downpour the likes of which the gods have never seen. Me without an umbrella, soaked to the bone ( resembling a drowned muppet ). I go to the interview, ace it. Head back out into the wet. Rain in buckets , rain in barrels. Get home and the minute I pull in it stops. I then want to give the gods a job interview, to see if they are good potential candidates for omnipotence. You want to ask the gods “Really now, so it’s gonna be like that is it.?”

Bad decisions=good stories

Bad decisions=good stories


MONDAY

Bad decisions= good stories - nothing sucks more than that moment during a argument when you realize you are completely wrong. So you have two choices admit you are wrong ( not an option ) or end up as a story told decades later of a guy who drank St. Ives while on codine and ran around the woods half naked thinking he was Puck from Midsummer Night's Dream.



Bad decisions = good stories ; "Kindness gives birth to kindness." - Sophocles. Well obviously Sophocles besides beign a great playwright was also a NINJA.


TUESDAY

Bad Decisions = Good Stories - I totally envy all those times I took nap when I was younger. Little child slackers. You know I fear children they are here to replace us. They want my stuff. Children should be eaten and not heard. Send them to the toddler mines!



Bad Decisions = Good Stories - Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died. I mean besides all the free food and cheap artifacts you find at the funeral. Obits would be interesting. Especially if they have a Darwin awards aspect to them. Natural causes – boring. But found naked handcuffed to an inflatable partner while covered in coolwhip – 5 stars.

WEDNESDAY

Bad Decisions = Good Stories – Word program is tricksey. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my two hundred page epic poem “ Ode to a con girl dressed like Zatanna but she hasn’t noticed me for I failed my saving throw vs Charisma” that I swear I did not make any changes to. Cunning program steals great art. Why change perfection. Bloody word fascist.

Bad Decisions = Good Stories – The saying “ Everyday you are above ground is a good day.” Well that’s just racist against Mole People and other subterranean species. SO you are telling me that blind albino salamanders or crayfish are not capable of moments of bliss. Intolerance annoys me.

THURSDAY

Bad Decision = good story - I hate leaving my house confident and looking good ( a rare occasion ) and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day ( despite stalking and restraining orders. That’s profiling dammit ). What a waste. SO I decide to look like death on a stick everyday just to trick them.

Bad Decision = good story - As a driver I hate pedestrians ( get a car hoofer ) there should be a point system for hitting them, and I always hate cyclists ( join in the death of the planet, splitter, the two wheeled hellspawn of vehicular ignorance ). Lance Armstrong their leader is the devil. Hitting him should be worth at least a million points and a hummer that is powered by equal parts kittens, souls, and Victorian era child labor. Like Dick Cheney’s truck.

FRIDAY

Bad Decision = good story - I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet any weekend night at Rudy’s Tap room and taxidermy parlor. More kisses ( and regrets) begin with bachelorette parties, Long Island ice teas, a stripper named Fernando and a cheap hotel than Kay Jewelers.

glomp

In my gypsy life,
I thought never hear,
Throughout the cold strife,
And visceral fear

Bladed pen and page,
blooded tear hath shed,
despite the old age,
and the torment fed

that a type of kind,
love dear as water,
in the fray remind,
gift of my daughter

I thought never hear,
As I sullen lad,
Words I hold as dear,
As “I love you dad.”
