Get a Clue

little signs of impending ketchup 
splat up the nose out like a nose bleed
the col. has hidden the knife 
under miss Scarlett's skirt
writing a novel in the conservatory 
while Mrs. White pushes her husbands
beard under Mrs. Peacock's feathers

Hop Scotch

the speech has died staggering youth
thank you for your vacant expressions
cockroaches spent the night gone fishing
take your time to know the words
stuttering for your convenience
hop scotch silent amputee

Synthesis

commanding the red apple to crunch
slurping juices dripping from the mouth
sparkling sand settling in the garden 
falling from the trees untouched origin
blowing whispers from the tongue of snake
bare the skin was touched by leaves
creating a chill spreading seeds to synthesise

The Yellow Canary

the canary flying free on the clothes line
bright yellow dreams of flowing fabrics
performing for mermaids touching songs
glittery tail magnified by the salt of the sea
flying time to the farms of life's concerto

Dream Bent

sit up dizzy in reality
the dream was bent
paid in quarters to forget
monotony crusted eyes
sun kissed regrets
splashing the length of lashes

Cherries

locking up cherries in cartons
sucking the pits free 
kinky knots caressing the tongue
on the side of the road
3 cartons for the price of fun

Little Miss Aggressive Manners

little miss aggressive manners
floating on her stinging bee
poking age with high heeled shoes
and a martini with two men straight up

Texts & Tonic

sipping half frozen tonic water
lips so big texts so long
singing lets get it on

Liars

liars leave welting marks
sopping up tears in the rain
balding from martyrdom 
stuck in liquid webs 
unquenchable fires burning

Milk & Honey

the prince of lollipops chasing desires
white sand splitting two paths 
gray whales pushing reunited seas
flowing paths of milk and honey

Stir it Up

smoking societies polite smiles
winking seven times safely
listening to the band stir it up
so long to the end of songs
the beginning happens in seconds

Tears

trusting lies folding time
small truths framing sideways
rested eyes fooling mirrors
grudging the tears to flow

Granite

granite fills the room like noxious weeds
to formal for socks with holes to play
hammering dyed paper to tiny splinters
windows to look out for means of escape
home is where the heart palpitates with desires

Shekhinah

the Shekhinah calls me to to follow the trees
little floating cotton enlightening the path
open palms catching glimpses of dwelling
the earth pushing forth the webs divine

Cracked Volcanos

spectrum disabled on the fringe of despair
thoughts of ghosts dissipate mimicked behaviors
withered torn faces pasted with transparent glue
blowing down the roads of cracked volcanos

Tupper

rolled pennies falling
unacceptable heads or tails
on the brow of the angry gas man
short man complex to long Tupper wagons
children hiding behind plastic containers
no sex no supper just Tupper

Crows Eye

likewise said the crow
pick up some sticks 
the twine tight for flight
supporting the wings
integrity finds mortal shields
flying blindly in the crows eye

Blue Shadows

blue shadows are drifting toward negotiations
calm fragrant breeze caressing inner sanctum
the length of stares are about to be measured
come peacefully into the delicate vortex

Curdling

Gargantuan stones under hypnosis
the birds have all scattered 
little miss muffet became a hoochie in her tuffet
shooting up her curds and whey

The Name

sabotage barefoot in the muddled grass
the list thanks the masters of the law
which sword denies this name
stretching thru the spirit of the trees
counting drops of rain passing the spectrum
blanched diamonds drifting 
where is the name I am
this list is consumed droplets of names

The Lioness


calmly starved the lioness comforts lost calves scenery neglected gnats covering longing eyes confusion of the misfits of this reality nudging them along with no safety or fight the calves become the ghost prodding introducing the lioness to her cub

Divination


divination sparkles with a side of boredom
caught up in a wild horse storm bareback 
the wild hogs have been showered
meeting up with the old coyote 
living on rainbows and white kernals
poking rhythms in the little black pot

The Fox


So the fox hid the secret 
took the fox oath
never to tell a soul 
of this sacred duty given
leaving clues 
clearing the path
they tried to coax 
begging for just a clue
the fox tried to gesture 
look closer come inside
they raised their hands
you sly fox we give up
while the secret slept cozy 
warm and safe in the fox hole

The Frogs


decay in the space between air and earth
the chimes blowing lit by the lightning sky
come in and have some tea
we are all alone inside
thats the tumble weed scratching
what can you tell me about the frogs
come here isn't this special
go ahead look under the blanket
at night they come out
the whole house resonates

Wheezing


fragile laughter wheezing 
smiling red painful bleeding
chance of death knocking
all paid to look away 
the time for them to soon
laughter healing wounds

The Queen of Hearts


The Queen of Hearts spoke softly rolling her cannolis
the sous chef to Minnie Mouse and her holy pearls
Mickey was kind of a player Mouse well connected
when she returned to her kingdom in Wonderland she was furious
the king of hearts tried to please her but always fell off his pedestal
the White Rabbit announces all hail the Queen
but Alice failed talking back and questioning this tyranny
so the cards they played and fell in line
the Queen of hearts was beloved and they all weeped at her passing
Minnie's Cannolis just don't taste the same

The Bunny Hop


lemon meringue pie dripping from a cigarette
dancing the side to side bunny sway
hop up to the kitchen hop back to the table
the Queen of hearts bellows 
what are you a stunad it's right in front of you
under that quirky laugh hides a quale

Sleepless In Seattle


the line cracked you found me sliding on a pole
boots so high kicking the empty black spaces
small intimate room no where else to go
sweet innocent kisses no lines, curfew to sweet to leave 
as I smile taking off the boots letting my hair down

Towelettes


grasping folds with soft paper cuts
masking old wounds with moist towelettes
mashing silicone into empty pockets
listen up to the bum on duty 
wink and smile for candy
tomorrows pigtails are to tight
