03-31-16 Silence And Peace

Seeking silence
To quiet my brain
Relax my heart
Relieve my stress

Seeking peace
For the world today
So we won't worry
About more bombs

03-30-16 Visions Of Melting Melodies

Save your own soul tomorrow
Nobody wants to eat your life
Thoughts that were in your head
Now playing at the art gallery

Drink a jar of mushroom tea
Listen to loud colors swimming
Outside of purple skies surprised
Interior hearts are on display here

Chocolate bunny for breakfast
Jellybean smiles in lollipop licks
Dreaming about cartoon superheroes
Unlimited birthday cake on the table

03-29-16 Manhattan Mythology

new york city
makes you feel
like you have
conquered the world
when you are on top
but it's all an illusion
it's part of the seduction

you come back down
your feet hit the ground
sitting on an empty train
reading last week's paper
sipping a cold cup of coffee
not knowing if it's night or day
invisible inside this universe

new york city
doesn't care
about dreams
new york city
has seen it all
new york city
always wins

03-28-16 Stardust Destruction

Walking around the old neighborhood
You used to rule this town hands down
But these days you've been gone for good
For quite a while the world has forgotten

Remember those golden days of glory
You had it all for a moment in time
But the opportunity you had is gone
And another chapter is being written

Champagne glasses clinking together
Endless buffet after party on the list
Red hot underground style page play
In through the back door on the sly

Quiet night at home with a good movie
Take out dinner from a fast food joint
Forget about all the glitter and glamour
Find the peace within your self to shine

03-27-16 Unlimited Sunshine

Flowers are blooming
Trees are growing tall
Bees are making honey
Kids are playing ball

Early sunrise shining
Golden Sunday morning
Magic soul explosion
The ultimate illumination

03-26-16 This Is An Abstract Poem

Sandwich brains drowning in jello
Through the mouth of a rubber fish
Tabling trouble tumbling downward
Hidden secrets inside frozen walls

Steal the cyclone from out of the sky
Fruit of all historic efforts to fly away
Into outer space down the drain already
Sparks collapse beyond thunderstorms

You may find some sandcastle magistrate
Mystery sleeves settle back behind dreams
These are the spin cycle sounds of change
Radiation waves killing you inside your home

Mechanical romance at our favorite restaurant
The buttered crescent rolls are on sale this week
The creators from above have chosen you to shine
Make a difference in this world to make it better

03-25-16 Tropical Island Haiku

Pina Colada
Taking a cool sunset swim
In a mellow mood

03-24-16 Godzilla In The Morning

Godzilla sitting
In a quiet coffee shop
Reading the newspaper
On a snowy winter morning
Eating a toasted buttered bagel
Checking out the local action
While the full moon is eclipsed
Back in the old neighborhood
Getting into some big trouble
Running with the wrong crowd
Too proud to beg for mercy
Drinking one more for the road
Before destroying another city
With Godzilla's fire breath

03-23-16 Kiss Of The Zombie Robot Vampires

Glow in the dark
Old skeleton bones
Alone in the cold
Red eyes watching

Vampire's wet kiss
Sharp bite on your neck
Warm blood drops drip
Children of the night

Sparks pop sizzle
Eyes light up inside
Computer activated
Electronic heart

The undead rise
Flying saucers spinning
Mothership is on the way
To take us to the promised land

03-22-16 Last Blast

Laserbeams come easily
When you're trying hard
To make it all happen
At the same time
You have to find the flow
That's where the real feeling is
Contained inside natural emotions

03-21-16 Let's Stay This Way Forever

So small
You still fit
In my arms

I will
Never
Let you go

We snuggle
On the couch
Watching cartoons

Playing with toys
Reading little books
Coloring with crayons

Hilarious laughter
Jumping up and down
Dancing to the music

These are
The happiest
Times for me

Hold my hand
Follow me
Be my friend

03-20-16 Best Better

You Are 
The Best

Everybody Thinks
They Are The Best

No One Knows
Better Than The Best

I Am The Best
At Being Better

You're Better
Than The Rest

That's Your
Best Bet

03-19-16 Reflections At The End Of A Dream

Tougher than raw meat
Bloody bruised broken
A gallon of old whiskey
Spilled out across the floor

Effortless glide with grace
Fashion trends pretend to care
Golden sparkle diamonds twinkle
All blinged out under the skylight

Sitting up in the penthouse
Looking down on the world
Champagne showers flowing
A lifetime flashes by fast

You beat me to the punch
And knocked me out cold
I know I should let it go
But it still hurts so much

03-18-16 She Had Stars In Her Pocket

Seventy two million years ago
Martian space landings captured
A most unusual specimen of life
In the cosmic glow of the galaxy

She had stars in her pocket
And suns in her eyes
The flowers never knew her
It was all a big surprise

Sonic moonbeams bouncing
Intergalactic radio drama logic
Catching a comet to the cosmos
Reaching the far edges of tomorrow

She had stars in her pocket
And sunshine in her eyes
She's an undercover alien
It was all a big disguise

03-17-16 Broken Bottle Street Fight

crime drama playing out
down on the sidewalk
we hide in our apartment
shots ring out in the night

neighborhood crazy town
strange logic twisted ideas
quickly erupts into violence
cameras recording everything

muscle up on the battle lines
don't let anyone push you around
fight for the important issues
stand up stand tall stand strong

03-16-16 Spirits Of The Universe

Speaking to us
Speaking through us
Angels spread their wings
To sing us their sweet songs

The only ones
Who hear them
Are the ones
Who are listening

03-15-16 A Chance To Write Beautiful Poetry

Nuclear warheads loaded up
Love story morning glory
Unstoppable strength inside
Cool bliss in the afternoon

Kiss your face and steal your heart
There's plenty of time to shine a light
Tonight inspiration sweeps us away
Hypnotized under the harvest moon

Inciting mob violence in the morning
Performance art explosion all over
Thunder sunset skies like pizza pies
Remember the passion that moves you

Obscene gestures test the boundaries
Toxic environment over the rainbow
Sucker punch dinner party blind eye
Make your life a better place to be

03-14-16 Subhuman Underground Nightmare

Shadows deep in funky fog
Horror show slaughter scene
True darkness obscured in cold
Creatures lurking in old tunnels

Unnatural energies feeling fear
Creeping around in the sewers
Hidden from sight of human eyes
Starving for any kind of flesh

Spooky beasts remain mysterious
Slimy filth lurking in murky depths
Oozing slop stuck in a messy muck
Swamp monsters wait patiently to attack

03-13-16 In Silent Simplicity

Sitting on the steps
With a cup of coffee
Reading the newspaper
On a quiet morning

In the middle of the city

While the hustlers hustle
And the world is turning
Hardly noticing
Rush hour traffic

03-12-16 All Night Love Riot

Throwing up
In the bathroom
On the filthy floor
Of the last stall
After last call

Morning shows up
Quicker than we expected
After a wild ride wide awake
We thought this night
Might never end





   

03-11-16 Surfing On A Silver Cloud

Someday we will be happy
Saturday night special evil
Strong dragonfire breath

Shock in the spiral upward
Spirits rising to the moon
Shining brighter than stars

Share the love around town
Sometimes your heart breaks
Springtime is around the corner

Suckers born solving riddles
Sweet candy on my tongue
Sing me to sleep with a song

03-10-16 Take Away The Pain

Reach out
From far away
To lend a hand
Or send your love

Special thoughts
Across long distances
Powerful vibrations
Positive energies

Healing and feeling
Together for strength
Quietly holding steady
Peacefully resting

03-09-16 Apocalypse In Your Pocket

Poison tongue too sweet
Tea leaves in the future
Crystal smashed to bits
Elastic travel trip to Mars
Extraterrestrial mind set
Birds flying south already
Confused about the time
Alternate realities running
Existance on another level
Trapped in a parallel universe
Communication with the dead
West coast earthquake zone
Dinosaurs are coming back
The weather is getting worse
Everybody's going crazy
Waiting for the next big bang

03-08-16 Turn On Your Light

Save the gloom
For another time
We are happy now
Don't sweat it one bit

Cheer up sunshine
Honey drops in morning dew
A brand new day is dawning
Everything is beautiful

03-07-16 Take The Money

Fast cash off the books
Turn around scam shift
Hands in too many pockets
Pressing magic buttons

Work the system off the grid
Hiding under the radar screen
Screaming too much information
Streaming live into your home

Fake names leave no traces
Exploring every available option
Rip off artist on the street hunting
They are all in on the game

03-06-16 Children Of The Underworld

we all want
to be loved

electric blue
and how about you

obsession observation
walking the streets alone

sweaty palms
rapid heartbeat

spending money
losing everything

that damn moose head
looking down like a god

the devil is here
in the flesh

thirteen dollar masterpiece
dark shades of twisted evil

red overtones flashing light
dragonflies hang by a thread

triumphant music on a loop
cyborg brain communication

creature connections
mouse patrol upstairs

the ghost in your heart
shows the word to the world

teleporting in disguise
across space and time

falling apart
broken pieces

we all want
to be loved

03-05-16 Twilight Haiku

Watching the sunset
At the end of a long day
Fading into night

03-04-16 Legends Of The Subway Graffiti Ninjas

Sparks from silent philosophies
Set fire to a blazing movement
Urban voices in a public forum
Reflected in a series of images

Entering an endless tunnel maze
Disappearing shadows in the dark
Electric shock speeding train danger
Hidden beauty in the underground

Visual masterpieces emerge
Spilling out on a canvas wall
With deep feeling and emotion
Capturing this moment in time

03-03-16 Neighborhood Graveyard

the old book store
used to be over there
across the street
where we would meet
to discuss Kerouac
over a cup of coffee

that was the spot
a few doors down
where that jazz club
once stood proud
when the legends
went there to jam

the ghosts are here
of those insane poets
creatures of culture
artists of the new age
all the crazy hippies
their energy still exists

most of those buildings
are not here anymore
the ones that are standing
are empty shells now
hollow on the inside
the groovy people are gone

03-02-16 Exploring Your Imagination

Flying with golden dragons
In kingdoms of secret magic
Under the spell of wizards
In gardens of infinite beauty

Colorful flowers grow wild
Flowing below the surface
Inside the mind of a child
Twisting around in circles

Circus animals singing songs
Images of sparkling wonders
Morphing into special shapes
Drawing fantasy landscapes

03-01-16 Something To Feel Good About

The sun will shine again

Look forward to tomorrow

They can't stop us from having fun
