Four chairs. One plate, One fork. Two chairs. One napkin, One partially filled glass. One chair. A microwave meat pie sat, Camping out across the table from him, ignored by the noisy, white conversation, of too many red lettered bills and junk mail. The TV sat just out of view, slightly out of frame, with […]

Rhyme Inc.
Drop the beat, the heat, slide the wisdom to the streets. DOOM the funk like unwashed feet or some ole skunk meat. The El Dorado, gold crease, please the teddy bear market with ease. Decease or desist. Drop it like it’s hot ’til the heartbeat cease. Roll up on it like Thought in a spaceship. […]
Rocket Fuel
A star packed sky dots the scene, Hand in hand, a quixotic dream, Jumping out of a Friday night, And onto the movie screen. Speed it up, slow it down. We glide across the shoreline. We out race the light, We love in never ending night! For It was written across the heavens, In the […]
Way Up High
And If there is a God…Somewhere way up high,Way beyond the sky,I will one day be free,Be free to just be,Feeling good, grinnin’ into the breeze. Running free through the night air,Escaping the mental trap houseBlue eyes and fair,The deception laid bare,The fog parted,Breathing in rarefied air. Only then slightly aware…Of the fear spliced into, programmed […]
Listening Session
Fingers snap, hands clap, the melody wanders into the room. Heart rush, guitar crush, hidden in the corner with whom? Pecan brushed lover, sitting on a faint gray sofa, against faint gray walls. From over, near the door, to the middle of the floor, the melody crawls. With spider web vibrations, on a line to […]
Music to My Soul
Moonlight travels, The shadows, Draw to a close. Ceiling fan whirs, The restless stir, Resisting repose. I blend into, Merge into, Bring heat to the dark. The sheen on a Moreno hue, Resisting dissolution, Into the fading light, Holding you tight, Into the late hours, Into the maturity of the night. The magic in your […]
Mariposas Y Lluvia
Like attentions fixed upon Winter, Floating to the ground. Creeping madness imagining snows melt, Cooling the brow. Found floating in the sharing of thought, Finding like rest in burial sought. Cupping handfuls, Bathing in the abstraction for hours. The nuanced intentions, Sesame the arms of flowers. Toe touching head, A still of curved form. Flipping […]
When I Get Old
When I get old there’s gonna be a lot of shit that I’m gonna just stop caring about. There’s so much wasted time, I could prolly free up and put to better use. I’ve already identified quite a few things and listed them out. Hmmm. Might not be a bad idea to get a head […]
Into the Blue
She lay on her back floating in the water, Rocking with the currents, Atop golden leaves brushed onto the water’s surface by the sunshine, Floating away into the minutes and hours of the day Forgetful of everything, Her fingers broke the surface, Trailing the turbulence behind, She floated away into the blue. It opened It’s arms to […]
And Then You Die…
I found love. It sprouted atop the trees. My top new priority, She, caught me, with her Latin-Mami Steez. Sun-touched, at ease, Simple destiny, We, In love to be. Swinging through the leaves, Arm in arm, twisting up the vines, A touch of the divine. We hopped from branch to line, Dancing in motion, pure […]
