There's a whole lot more
To hormones than what's hidden
Under our genes jeans
This I know because
Limbic System told me so
Give me an "Amen!"

Yesterday
when the liminal
becomes the subcarrier
signal waves bye-bye
as the earth leans in
cry not for shrinking daylight
embrace the darkness
Tipped on its axis
The drunk world slurs it's solstice
Planetary binge
Celestial power drinking
Earth wobbles out of control

Yesterday
I remember when police wore shirts to work
For most of my life
It ran in strict parallel
Within it's privileged shell
Course change late strife
Dragged its slimy trail
To intersect our tale
It proceeded to foist
Mealy mouthed and moist
It's fetid festering soul
A global hairy mole
No channel change
Can stop the strange
Geezer cynic shouts
"Let's get ready to grumble!"
Complaining ensues
first mash them all up
heat and serve in a big bowl
fresh hot tea peas soup
And then I heard that grapes were just hemorrhoids on a stick. Put me right off wine for a while.
Statistically I may have twenty years. That's because I'm the luckiest man in the world. But all the things i learned in my first twenty years were the best. So the best is yet to come.

Yesterday
taking a short walk
into a long days vortex
to meet my long night
Dog days of summer
Ushered in by long spring days
Don't seem as long now
a controlled fall down
earth's gravity well defines
how I walk about
alternating falls
in a controlled manner down
into planet earth's
gravity well is the best
description of how I walk
is that a vortex
in your eyes or are you just
happy to see me
Took the time to write
About a constellation
Of beauties in sight
My mystery achievement
Blissful hours spent tonight
Spray largess around
Flourishing on every self
Still no trickle down
Excuse for being
proud of my humbleness and
character flaws with
wanton whimsy because of
so much salt rubbed in life's wound

Yesterday
Once beyond the pale
Becomes the coin of the realm
Frenzied fiat force
fireflies recalled
chased around on summer nights
then they went away
the current regime
will fold spindle mutilate
to get it's own way

Yesterday
I love my wind chimes
I hate my neighbors wind chimes
My stuff and your shit
lift of life makes me
soar upon wings of desire
to swoop from above
down into beloved arms
that swaddle my poor sore soul
susurrus soar through
the corridors of my mind
where howls once echoed

Fatherly advice.
Go do something even if
it's wrong. Point taken.
James Joyce — 'Every bond is a bond to sorrow.'
A pinch of this a
dash of that plus a skosh of
whatever. Netflix.
opaque to many
to just as many it's clear
the rest pay no mind
primordial soup
a little dab'll do ya
greasy kid stuff spark
Pinch both sides of path
Primordial Sun Flower
It's clear. Us or them

I keep my eyes shut
Reverse blink on occasion
Surprises abound
See who will blink first
Boon for big dry eye pharma
Call your broker now
He is a manufacturer of images
And is very much removed from the truth - Plato
Have care packages
A positive attitude
Hunting for goodwill
Rip it to shreds
Your intellectual pieces
Of hypothetical thesis
Since it's Father's Day
I'll be putting up a shelf
Crooked as I please

exposition makes
my eyes glaze over that's why
I do the haiku
when the whip comes down
every gash from the lash gives
laughs to Slash the Clown
Cardinal Fang to
Bishop Slash, "Let the dogma
glaze commence at once."
"Got em riled up good."
The Doyen told the Doyenne
"Time to slither out"
public and private
deeply imbedded in us
waste fraud and abuse
Night moves on cool grass
Til cops spotlight shone on us
Long ago hot night

seems like all the dark
in all the shadows wants to
spill out all at once
floating on a raft
of graft, war profiteers are
cashing in big time
red-winged black bird nests
fills the shoreline with joyous
distinctive bird song
The way of life is transformational
Not exclusionary
naked and displayed
murder primates of earth have
shed their human skin
He thinks Joseph Stalin was a good man.
Says he did some good things for the Chinese.
This is the sort of thing that makes one grateful for semi-consciousness
