INTO THE SEA
*
Into the sea
the river seeps
until with relief
the river is seized
and begins to merge
in Neptunian deeps
*
LIBRA LIBRARIAN
*
When the libertarian
dated the libra librarian
she realized he was antiwar
and supportive of
the rights of all Liberians
*
TRAGICALLY PRUNED
*
The tragically pruned
and hacked bush
would not in this year
weave seeds of his
species immortality
nor provide food for
the birds nor
create oxygen for all.
Like a child
whose every desire
is whacked off by
parental control freak fire.
Like an Asian girl
whose bound feet are
deformed and mutilated
by hideous ideas of
beauty.
*
IMBEDDED REPORTERS
*
The military
carefully choose
journalists to imbed
... those most likely
with war profiteers
to be in bed
When a writer is
surrounded by
men who are armed
he's less likely to
report what
will get him harmed.
*
AURA CHARGER
*
"Physician, heal thyself".
And he began to draw in
the light of his own
aura to charge his body.
*
SMALLER ACORNS
*
He observed that
the smaller acorns
drop last..
like thin not
overweight men
in a nursing home.
He saw that the
oakleaves first
turning scarlet
were those which
had received
the least light.
