Beneath twenty seven quilts
root ten pairs of toes
two spoons resting
one knot of arms and legs, a shrine
to lotus blossom and grasshopper
a flamenco of whispers
breaths ending in collapse
rooting, resting
more breaths collapsing

Gift From The Fire

In the absence of company
The heat of my fire and its light
Play surrogates connecting me to the organic
This imbibing portal persuades me
I am alone but not divorced
From the web of the living
I can feel so alone in the presence of many
Yet in...

Fractured conscience wants to scream
You idiot
While my hand beckons you
To grab it
How long must I wade through muck
To see the end of your insanity?
Wake up!
Wake up you idiot
You do not own time, life is short!
There is living to suckle
And lo...

Murphy had a lottery and I won.
Day 1: Amarillo, Texas didn't have the throttle sensor I need so the mechanic overnighted it.
Day 2: The part didn't make the cutoff so it didn't arrive as scheduled.
Day 3: You'll never guess. The wrong part ...

Hello, Amarillo.
We pull into Patrick's Tire Service. The car my daughter and I are driving to Alaska follows us on the flatbed behind. A sixty mile tow from Clarendon, Texas. Bless the American Automobile Association. Walking away from the driv...

Atlanta to Dallas for soccer regionals. Passing Birmingham at 2:00 AM with Leonard Skynard's Sweet Home Alabama playing. I hear the words, "In Birmingham, they love the governor" I think of my uncle Ray who led the US army into Alabama to protect ...
Celebrating Penis Envy

If I could be a guy I would start every day practicing Katakana with my morning erection.
I would use my erection as a sundial and mark the shadows on the walls of my room each morning for a year to make a calendar.
I would craft a set of bongo ...

Life Out of Body

Sometimes I miss the out of body experiences I used to have as a child though I often despised having them at the time.

Dear son,
Sit down. I know you think you know about the birds and the bees but there are some things no one has bothered to tell you and they don't teach it in school. I'm sorry it wasn't meant to be for you to learn this by example.

Low Pressure Rush

Massive lightening sheets blushing,
Krinkly jagged ribbons dicing,
Liquid fists' pounding drone satiates my happy heart,
Air pushing, pulling, dancing
Trees bending, swaying, lancing,
Skies groaning primal thoughts,
I am reborn
