Positive Thought Manifests POLONIUS FELONIOUS
It was felonious
to stab Pollonius
but not to lob
a water balloon
at Dennis Hastert
MAST REFLECTIONS
In the sea
the mirrored
mast spears
can do no harm
She turns
wavy
their
frozen force
(to Kenny Richey
by worldwide opposition
to unjust death row imprisonment,
finally released from Ohio's
death row. Ohio Republicans
on the Ohio Supreme Court and
the 6th Circuit who call themselves
prolife have been involved in the
serial killing of prisoners. Only 1/4
of US states, only 12% of the world's
countries are involved in cold premeditated
judicial murder, a greater crime than
the hot passion of some crimes.
LES COEURS
It is not
le coeur de la mer
but les coeurs de la mer
for the sea
has hearts beating
everywhere
BIRDFRUIT
Every mature tree
from twig to root
yearns to be home
for flocks of birdfruit.
MASSED THUNDER
In the mountains...God has
massed his thunder
Your faith can ...
help the power break asunder
ROSENTHAL
God make the
sight of a rose
now enthrall
the soul of prosecutor
Chuch Rosenthal
.. so that he
resigns
from his killing hall
so that he
resigns from his
killing hall
BLAZING STARS
To the bitter
the blazing stars
seem sky's scars
To the sweet
the heart's scars
seem gold badge stars.
ETERNAL NOON
When comes eternal noon?
When soul turns around
each no... to on.
BLUE FLOWER FLAME
To see the divine
in everyone
is akin to
turning a pilot
light
into a multipetaled
blue flower flame
FLASHING LIGHTS
Behind me
in the twilight
I saw flashing lights
.. oh oh
an officer of the law
I thought
but it was
the sun inbetween
clouds flashing
HELLO
BREAK OF DAY
The break of day!
The crack of dawn!
Look not at night's
shellshards
but at the newbird sun!
(to David Wright)
SPIDER WEB BEJEWELED
A spider web
dew bejeweled
.. shining necklace
hung on the throat
of dawn..
though its builder
means it as a deathtrap
for innocents
.. God has other plans
CATCH A FIRE IN THE SKY
Catch a fire in the sky
with water.
Catch sun father
with liquid daughter.
Water is not the foe
of fire.
Together rainbows they
do sire.
SUN ARRAYS HIMSELF
Over the lip of the earth
broke into night the sun.
A little cloud
.. a baby herald
ran and told everyone.
Each little cloud seemed to
catch the sun
and to steal his homerun.
But as they were later
rained away, we knew
his ball has gone
further than anyone's.
Himself sun arrays
in His own rays
and as He arises
and all birds He arouses
His rays are of
pink and purple and rose.
(to MBC of Columbus)
OBEDIENT ANGELS
Angels are obedient
to our wishes.
They are genies
in the bottles of
our hearts,
waiting to be prayed
into appearing..
waiting to
make concrete
our deepest desires.
IN MAY TO BLOOM COME THE BEES
She prayed and
into inviolate ethers
suddenly came
ultraviolet feathers
delicate gossamer
wings of thought
turning to real
all maybes and oughts
turning the verb of may
to that of be
as surely as in May
.. to bloom come the bees
DESIRE IS DESTINY
The foghorn sounds in the mysterious
mists.. a lonely call for his mate.
The train whistles
beckon to our desire which is our destiny.
The sea sings to the shore.
In Siberia snow falls soundlessly.
In a world beyond time
horses' hooves on cobbled stones,
the crash of the cataract,
the boom of the ocean,
the cheerful babbling of the brook,
.. the first trill of absolute joy
from a predawn bird.. a trill
which is a sword to
Dracula's night curtains.
First and last, God is in our
ears.
CHARGING THOUGHTS
Garbs her thoughts does Marge
with a positive charge
as surely as
putting things
in a bag of white
more than a dark one
reflects the light..
as surely as
rainbows striking
resin's dew
leave hope
as their residue
A DUPRE
Oh once fired
was A Dupre
for giving all
of his students
an A
.. for living
beyond the judgers' realm
above the
Ivy League vines
and winter elms
