POEM: The Enema’s Within

This poem is a dose of pushing back on the Trump regime’s deployment of masked secret police and increasing militarization of policing in our ledged democracy…

The Enema’s Within

They talked shit
A bout
The left
And those who haven’t
They want have the country
Too rule the other
Brought and souled
On violence
While huddled masses bellow
Agin the party lyin’
This is knot America
To be politically korrect
State-ing the obvious
In what parently is limited government
Bye the people
In what remains
The fatherland
As neighbors turn in
This
Incite out
What is it wee must
In part
Taken in
Assault-y and bitter solution
In what might be
In dispensable
A healthy dose of moral fiber
Standing to gather
That peaceable assembly
In what right truly means
None left
Behind
With standing whatever throne at US
The catch
As chants is up on
In head and tails
To toil it
Allot of shit
Perhaps choiring US
In the wake of such grievances
To re-dress
Amidst that essence of democracy

POEM: Bad Guise

In case those masked cops rounding up people in the streets were fretting over who might be coming for them, it’s just us…

Bad Guise

You may have herd
Cops need masks
To protect themselves from the people
Posed bad guise
And that is knot enough
The masked cops need cops
Due the cops protecting the cops need cops?
The chauvinist-in-chief courts trouble
Parently with impunity
In citing cops need bad guise
And such daze
We’ll pass
Over hauling wee the people
As just us peers
Answering that singular question
Copping pleas?

POEM: The Straw Dint (Notably Possessive)

This poem emerged from the image of a flurry of potential “last straws” as in “the straw that broke the camel’s back.” This poem parlay’s the resilience of camels in the desert as a metaphor of resilience for us in whatever deserts in life we may experience…

The Straw Dint (Notably Possessive)

The straw didn’t brake
The camel’s back
With such reign
Time to bale
When surroundings
Anything but stable
As if
Know room at the in
A desert creature
Dune the best passable
Carrying life
In between
Oasis’s

POEM: Superlative Power

A poem about The Don, the grift, the superpower…

Superlative Power

His superpower was
Low expectations
Razed to absurd levels
Then giving you
The lyin’s share
Of what wasn’t there
In first plays
And the lessen
Don’t look
A grift
Hoarse in the mouth
You always get
What
Pain for

POEM: Revolution-airy

Earth is our ultimate revolution…

Revolution-airy

“If I can’t dance, I don’t want to be part of your revolution.” –Emma Goldman

In this whirled
Of human unkind
Nevertheless
Mother Earth spins
Up on her axes
On a roll
Of celestial peeks
And as fore whine of hours
Mine, mine, mine
She encircles awe
For eons
As we entreat her
Like a revolve her
She offers a twist
To this grave plot
As she gives us a fly orbit
Of moons and amor
Wooing us
As if to herald
It’s our turn
As well
Now
That is
A revolution
That I can dance to

Shockin’ awe
As all is fare
In lovin’ war

POEM: Poisoned, Well, Being

Poisoned, Well, Being

We thought buy being
The strongest of allot
A mass of power
Every won posed
Could not with stand
The gravity of hour rein
On just and unjust
Weal wrest on hole some
Little did we no
Never quiet figuring
Out
The sores of life
Sacrifices
Willing to be made
By more
Then mirror God
Our most
Lucid moments
Like dropping balms
In order
To come to
Our sense us
Incensed at preyer
Wee are undivided
In the no
Venom
Coming from the poisoned
Well
Being

POEM: First Responders Knot

A poem for the actual first responders, prevention workers of awe kinds. NOTE: If you are not named specifically, we know that you are used to it…

First Responders Knot

A shooting
A heart attack
A suicide
A drunken wreck
Law enforcement and EMS
Quickly respond
In that ninth inning stretch
Pining the needle
Of overdue and overdo
Not quiet
Reminding us
Of heroics long for gotten
As hidden in efface
As sum of us
Know wear
To be found
A triple bypass
Of teachers
Counselors
Public health workers
And them ilk
Of compassion
In the long haul
Of un-scene
In the whirled
Of overwhelming convention
And underwhelming prevention

POEM: Ship Happens

May you harbor good feelings…

Ship Happens

It’s awe ways now
Some wear
Though not hear
Life is afar
A weigh
As untouchable
And just
As I can’t sea
Ship happens
And once amor
Cared a way

POEM: God Necked

I am necked be for God…

God Necked

He souled himself
The rope to hang
Buy knowledge
No’in by awe
Allot of science
And a byte-size art
Bequeathing him
A faith worse than death
Larger than life undone
An unfathomable circus
To hang by a thread
And notions of God
Made
Necked
When you can hire power
Hung up
On awe that is a parent
Of coarse knot
As a trap adore
And the gravity
Of fallen
Fore it agin

POEM: Reveres Bargaining

This poem is a meditation on generosity. The title is an allusion to my practice of “reverse bargaining.” My favorite example is when I was tabling, selling buttons, at a large event. Of course, I made weigh too many buttons — if that’s possible. I don’t want boxes of buttons in my house; I want them out in the world. So, another button vendor, an alleged competitor — in my world, there is no such thing — wanted to buy a bunch of buttons to re-sell in their business. He said, “How many can I get for $100?” I said, “how many do you want?” He offered, “How about 300?” I said, “350 and it’s a deal.” The rest is history…

Reveres Bargaining

What is your status?
In the whirled of busyness
What might
Be scene
As negotiating position
Is mirrorly just
A bargain
Bin there
Done that
If you were to attest
The limits of my generosity
You may be soarly surprised

POEM: Star Children

Are we soully star dust?

Star Children

They expressed matter
Of factly
That they were
Star dust
As in choir
Are you Sirius?
Still, quiet ponder us
We made note
The twinkle in their I
And undeniable dark background
They conceivably came from
A plausible perspective
With stellar possibilities

POEM: Arming Up, Surrendering to What?

This poem was inspired by a friend, a confirmed liberal, who is considering buying a gun to prepare for a potential civil war. This poem is a meditation on such epic choices. Gandhi viewed cowardice and fear as the real enemy. People should not hide behind nonviolence so-called. People should confront their fear of harm to self and their own. People should confront the tension between the beast in ourselves and the best in ourselves. As Gandhi said, “There is hope for a violent man to be some day non-violent, but there is none for a coward.” The common thread is courageous skin in the game. May we awe choose, courage over cowardice…

Arming Up, Surrendering to What?

“They will beat their swords into plowshares…” –Isaiah 2:4
“Or to take arms against a sea of troubles…” –from Hamlet

How might
Ponder US
Perhaps approaching
A civil war
Perhaps a poaching
What weigh
To fight
Farming humanity
Or farming out humanity
As feeleds burn
An affinity of life
An infinity of death
What is it we’ed due
In hour relationship
With someone ails
Axing won an other
Beyond belief
Canon fodder
Or plowshares fodder
To be or not to be
To kill or be killed
What is it, a boat
Buy what kin ship to sail
Regardless of the wins
Or losses
Brought a bout
By grave choices
By awe standards
With skin in the game

I am an Antifa Marxist and Lennon-ist

I am what antifa looks like — that is, an anti-fascist that wouldn’t join any group that would have them as a member. Of course, this also makes me a Marxist, a Groucho Marxist.

For full disclosure, I am also a Lennon-ist: “Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.” and “Give peace a chance.” –John Lennon

POEM: A Pacifist Incense Ability

“Being a pacifist between wars is as easy as being a vegetarian between meals.” –Ammon Hennacy

Being a pacifist between wars is as easy as being a vegetarian between meals.

A Pacifist Incense Ability

I am too
A pacifist
She proffered
Sow confidently
When only a madder of instance later
She uddered allowed
THIS
Parently in sensibility
“Of course, I’d kill anyone threatening my children.”
Buy definition this stranger pacifism
Up in smoke
As like
The God of awe
Not love
As the red carpet rolls out at won’s feat
I bid welcome to my sibling
In what turns out
Too be the roughest child hood
I ever metaphor
With such no how
The slimmest comfort of being
A vegetarian 23 hours a day

POEM: The True Meaning of a Hill of Beings

Our solidarity with one another, awe others, is the measure of our being…

The True Meaning of a Hill of Beings

The high maintenance folks
Were sent back
To first class
Fore a remedial steak in reality
To yearn
What they had not
The prize of beings
And what it truly means
To be
King of the hill
Mountin’ to nothing
And good standing
Next to won another

POEM: Hammered

Hammered

“If you only have a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.” –Abraham Maslow

They claimed to no
The fascist way to what
They want
Winning at all accosts
Won tool to rule them all
Pounding
And pounding
And pounding
US down
Hammering ahead
Weave awe
Been nailed
And awe the wile
Lowering that bar
Of steal
Pour tending
Making their claim
100% hammered
“You’re not screwed.”

POEM: Well, Come Homme

God welcomes the pour…of spirit…

Well, Come Homme

God souled
Awe that
God possessed
To the pour of spirit
Like heir
That we breathe
Living with abandon
That dusty throne
As pawned an eternity a go
Having discovered homme-lessness
Be gets
Such mortal doings
Relegated on awe sides
Picking up on
Such wayward litter
And know vagrancy at the in
Getting beyond avail
That’s will
And sow much more than a sip
Well
Come homme
