Lithe,
Supple,
Flexible
Willowy,
Graceful,
Stretchy, springing, pouncer.

Last Mooring
All vessels
Have final moorings,
The better captains have long planned,
But I suspect
Most are tethered
To an unintended last end.

Gathering words to describe you
I could say
You are the unchallenged promise
Of every clear dawn,
The circular comfort
Knitting our nest,
The smile on my face
At the sound of your steps,
The light as it contours your nippled breasts,
Your voice bridging pillows
Preparing for rest,
You are the grant of tomorrow
And joy’s present tense.

Cop 'n Count
Not all roses are red,
Nor all violets blue,
Sugar has calories,
Let's burn some ;-) say you?

Looking Back to the Future
Beneath my feet a runway carpet
Of mowed green plants,
I recognized the grass,
The weeds I can’t.
What do we really know,
Looking back,
Beyond the interregnums,
Copernicus, Newton, Darwin, Einstein …
Surely, another paradigm cracked?

It's Guinness at night but it's "Oh my god" in the morning

The Gawd Proof
Last night's party
Has become this morning's bane,
What more proof
That there is a god
Whose calculus set the universal laws
By which all things
From planets and stars,
To people in bars,
Act accordingly,
Or suffer the consequence?

Chicago
Chic-ago, Chick-ago,
You’re my kind of town.
Chicago,
Chic-ago, Chick-ago,
You’re my kind of town.
Chicago,
You’re no longer known for stacking wheat,
Or butchering hogs into meat,
You’re a broad shoulder town by Michigan lake.
Chicago,
Or butchering hogs into meat,
You’re a broad shoulder town by Michigan lake.
Chicago,
You’re now renown,
For your arts,
For your arts,
And grand boulevards near your parks,
Fancy fountains that spray the air,
Wind that blows everyone's hair,
Buildings tall, but not always square,

I Eat Sun
I eat sun
Every day,
I breath star dust
With every breathe,
I pass ozone,
And piss neutrinos,
But find a heavy diet of gamma rays
Hard to digest.

But dry and beautiful here,
A women with a red umbrella
Crosses the river,

Simultaneous Connections
Simultaneous connections:
I'm x-changing emails with a blackberry in Spain,
A Dell in Dublin,
While text messaging a cell-phone in Bangor, Maine.
I just voice mailed my wife in Indianapolis,
Left an answering machine message for my father-in-law in Randolph, NH
Who's in Boston, for a Greek Easter mass.
Did I tell you I'm posting this blog
From a Tennessee farmhouse,
And beside me is our three legged dog,
And a nine life cat?

WAITING BY THE PHONE
Waiting by the phone,
Lengthens time,
And shapes perception,
Waiting by the phone,
Waiting by the phone,
Waiting by the phone,
Waiting by the phone is training to be a zen master.
