Perfect awareness
Despite the garbled events
Puddling at my feet.

Another sun lurks
Peeping past the waterline
Spying on my hours.

Seeking the wild gourd
Parting the frosted pasture
Skulking and plunging.

United in stone
Mankind courses through walled veins
Filling up the world.

Remember that time
In Milano...that weird dude
Who kept staring off?

Off the circuit board
To stare down unknown orbits,
To dare godless fates.

The choices once made
Cast deep shadows of intent
On the things true loved.

THE OUTER ORBITS
WHERE TIME/SPACE SEEMS ELASTIC
WAITING FOR GODOOZ.

Snatched by misty teeth
Arrested wonder above
Native songs below.

It's the big moment
Where neurons confront morons.
Who steps up first, hmmm?

Ever gaining height
Gravity is but a myth
Wooed by a whirwind.

To the starting line
And time has lost its meaning
Where passion must count.

Five little piggies
With mild ambitions, at best,
Ain't gonna cut it.

Conquering Hero
Flitting the globe once again
Looking for loose change.

Little wooden boy
Trying so hard to grow up
And not to grow out.

An asphalt nomad,
Made restless for sun-kissed climes,
Freezes in headlights.

You found Jesus, eh?
Where was the Halo Monkey,
Behind the sofa?

Eternal questions
Echoing through time and space
Might suggest fowl play.

You moved to Paris
And you gotta break the news?
There's an app for that.

Now fleeting sweetness
A timely release of self
Overcome, yet whole.

Turquoise telescope
Bringing the unknown closer
While having to wait.

What is a window
But an odd two-way mirror
That reveals lookers.

BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP
BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP BWEEEP
There goes Omaha.

Taken by surprise,
Stirred out of old reveries,
Rattled by new winds.

Adrenaline rush
With fantasies of mayhem
In our DNA.

Seven elephants
Slam dancing inside my skull
Doing Jaeger shots.

Poor, poor Bigglesworth
Caught in the linen closet
Nipping on a Pabst.

Each Khaalugan morn,
Urging old ones out of bed
The Beginner speaks.

There's that one weird guy,
Unflappable and patient,
That drives us BATSHIT.

O what dreams may come
Untethered and unbidden
Asleep yet alive.

Where the sidewalk ends;
When reality
Meets the imagination.

"Look, it's good for you."
A nauseating cliche
Beyond remedy.

Can I, PRETTY PLEASE??
Don't care where or for how long.
Just don't make me STAY!

Abominable?
This stylin' Himalayan's
A ready Yeti.

400 floors up
Beyond filthy commoners
And staying in touch.

Ever and Today
Spinning among memories
And scattered desires.

Unearthly creature
Whose presence only requires
A humble silence.

What is a mere fence?
An invitation to pique
The odd picket peek.

Meandering stones
Demarcating yours and mine
Grounded, so grounded.

Blurring connections
Collapsing tightening gyre
Spinning between planes

Gaining attention
Focal point of no return
And God laughs and laughs

Exquisite senses
Tendrils of pure volition
Capable of faith

Entrance or Exit?
A hello starts slouching towards
A tender longing.

What's wrong with Johnny?
He's got too much...not enough?
Vocal ampage works.

A divine notion
That simple things have merit
Refreshes the mind.

Soothing black asphalt
Thumb outstretched pointing westward
Anywhere but here

No pots rattling?
My bowl yet bereft of meat?
O how can this be?

Suspend disbelief
The night sky reels, splits open
Revealing wonder.

Watching intently
Flicker of recognition
Midnight Hail Mary

O so stealthily
Casing sketchy neighborhoods
Dodging freelancers.

Fifty-five wing beats
Hovering, feeding, living
In just one second.

The road less traveled
Is covered with black skid marks,
Shredded wheels and glass.

American dream
Nurtured by a Wall Street sun
Too intense for some.

Portals of Others
Sealed ever so mute and blind
Beyond memory.

The Way is narrow
The Path strewn with predators
Bunnyists Unite!

.........................................................................................................................

City or country
Ring tone or tolling church bell
Tomorrow calling

Wavering notions
Pulling and pushing limits
Of righteous vision.
