04-09-16 Lobsterfest

superstitious jelly fingers
extinct octopus singers blink
giant pools of blackout punch
reading books in the darkness
squirting looks through glass
watermelon shampoo fragrance
picture perfect war crimes shine
for breakfast in the morning sun
sports talk live on the radio station
lightning goblin sensitive energy
orange juice ocean fantasy island
cheddar bay biscuits for dinner

04-08-16 Chelsea Hotel #1017

Study the world
Killing time precisely
Surgical execution
Capture the moment

Spilled ink on the floor
Hypnotic glow of insanity
Creative energies flow
Speaking to our souls

Back to the city lights
Dreams of illumination
Experience in the walls
Vibrations though time

Frightened by the fire
Magic power in the castle
Existing everywhere together
Sharing the joy of creation

04-07-16 Morning After

One Morning
The Sun
Will Rise
But
No One
Will Be
There To
Enjoy It

04-06-16 Rocketship Astronaut

strong enough to say goodbye
the spaceman boards his ship
he's going to miss his friends
outer space is a lonely place

frozen in time for a century
he missed out on all the fun
will his home planet still exist
when he comes back from his trip

04-05-16 Forever Fresh

Music is universal communication
Beats bring you to a spiritual place
Thunder drum pounding sounds
Heartbeat rhythm thumping

Green beauty crunch
Cold water morning
Crisp spring splash
Cool breezes blowing

Catch of the day
Hot from the oven
Cooked to perfection
Delicious and natural

Slick moves laid down
Ghetto blaster boom box
Sharp threads spread out
Kings of the neighborhood

04-04-16 Earthlings After The Invasion

After the endless night
We escaped the battlefield
Making our way through
Mazes of underground tunnels

Surviving on bags of potato chips
Drinking soda cans to stay awake
So hard to think about life as it was
So much has changed in no time at all

Save our friends from destruction
We will rise up against the invaders
Their ships cannot land on the ground
We'll make our break in a few days

Running away from the aliens
Hunted by deadly robot armies
Hiding out until the invasion ends
Deliver our human souls from evil

04-03-16 Love Love Love

Overflowing with love
Love is in the air today
Spilled into the universe
Chasing magic unicorns

Follow the warmth of love
Keep love alive in your heart
Use unlimited love to heal pain
Heartbeat across the centuries

Love the life you live everyday
Hugs and kisses all over town
Empathy sympathy sweet candy
Sending all my love to you now

04-02-16 Creepers

Strange vibrations
Ghostly visitations
Green monsters grow
From down below

Answers from above
A quick flash in the night
Shadow creatures stalking
Out of the corner of my eye

Blood suckers undercover
Lovers of all that is eerie
In a menagerie of oddities
Evolved from dark evil

Howling out in the woods
Old spirit of the witch world
Silent visions of sunken graves
Eerie fog reveals a new dimension

04-01-16 Concrete Jungle Symphony

Lions on the prowl
Wild jungle politics
In your own backyard

Chaos in the streets
Time to hit the deck
Smashed glass shattered

Fireballs in the distance
Ambulance sirens ring out
Screaming in the night sky

Ultra fast communication
Total faith in the system
Tall buildings are watching

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

02-29-16 The Mysterious Snowman Of The Woods

Evergreen
Wilderness
For miles

Uncharted
Unexplored
Undiscovered

Winds shift
Dark clouds
Rolling in

Cold winter
No man's land
Snowfall all the time

A quiet silence
Shadows in the valley
Temperature dropping

Catch a glimpse
A quick sighting
Beyond the brush

Movement in the trees
Something strange is here
A wild energy surrounds us

Spirit of nature
Living in solitude
With woodland beasts

There is a snowman
Who protects deep woods
Always watching everything

02-28-16 Mixed Media Messages

Exotic imagery intense
Delicious food for your eyes
Old pictures of the ancient past

Essence of the collective consciousness
Artistic expression spilled out into space
Exploding all over your face

02-27-16 Living In Love Together

I want to repair

Into the shining light
Hand in hand together
Living in unlimited love

Fight strong
for what is right

Don't let anyone
push you around

Stand up for everything
 you believe in

Get tough when
the world gets rough

 

02-25-16 Back To The City

Cold beer at the bar
Sunset slide into night
Crowded trains are insane
Midtown cool at happy hour
Monster skyscrapers or giant robots
A slice of pizza on the run for lunch
Working hard all day long at the office
Sunrise purple pink into orange sunshine
Morning glory birds soaring above rooftops
Sweet sugar swirling in a hot cup of coffee
Yellow taxi cabs racing across town at rush hour
Electric energy is pure inspiration in this city
I really need to get back to the country

02-24-16 Back To The Country

Fresh milk from a jar
Sunrise comes up early
Cows munch green grass
Pigs happy in their hot slop
Chickens cluck in the pen
Crunchy veggies for lunch
Work hard in the sun all day
Sunset orange pink into purple
Crickets chirping off in the woods
Sweet country air in the cool night
Hypnotic moonlight illuminates us
Slow down quiet with no electricity
I really need to get back to the city

02-23-16 Memories Of The Future

on the floor
thinking

in slow motion
life everlasting

captured memories
snuggling the morning

subway blues again
rinse and repeat

heavy rains pouring
warmer winter

radiation mutations
cities under water

monster madness
midnight at the diner

be a hero today
help someone out

thirsty dinosaur
dirty dancing

disco revenge
modern messages

red hot lava lamp
flowing love light

hanging on
to the world

spinning
in a room

quiet shadows
dark sunshine

anxiety attack

spill it all out
ride the moonlight

ghosts of tomorrow
whisper your name

02-22-16 Frosty Downtown Snow Drift

Snowstorm sizzle squeezes
Blizzard breezes on Broadway
Rolling with monsters at dinner
Fireworks on Fourteenth Street

Evil ever after in the evening
Winter wizards making snow angels
Slow motion silence frozen in time
Do you remember the old Palladium

Stolen snowflakes falling in a dance
Sparkling frost crystals twinkle around
On a frozen stroll through Union Square
It's not easy to catch a cab in a big storm

02-21-16 Listen To The Music Inside You

When you are at peace
When your mind is clear
When you are your true self
You will hear the song

Playing inside your heartbeat
Processing sonic information
The sounds that surround you
In everything you live and love

Follow the music inside you
Let it guide your wandering spirit
Toward your one and only destiny
Into the light shining beyond infinity

02-20-16 The Next Wave

Forward march into the future
The world awaits a new frontier
Clear discoveries straight ahead
Find a way to make it all better

Changing lanes to turn the tide
We have to come together to survive
No more wars to fight and no more hate
So now what are you going to do 

Fresh ideas changing old ways
Another perspective is born
A perfect storm of revolution
Our evolution is now complete



 

02-19-16 Peppermint Cherry Bomb Kisses

Capture the grateful grapes
Send it next door into the wall
Flashy guns and golden trophies
Read more books about science

Secret language signals slipped in
Lickable wallpaper tastes like pineapple
Frozen vulture faces morphing slowly
Shape shifting vampires in the shadows

Start the morning off in a white snow storm
Running in a blind slide across Fifth Avenue
Hot coffee maple syrup turkey bacon breakfast
Pick up a copy of the New York Post to read

Silent afternoon sunflower shower at the tower
Fighting rage locked inside the heart of a dragon
Glowing golden spotlight sensation on center stage
Evil messages are being transmitted to your heart

02-18-16 Riding The Bus All Night

Sitting in the shelter
Running away from pain
As hard rains pour down

The bus is cold and noisy
It hasn't been cleaned in a while
Dim green lights dot the walkway

A woman snores loudly
There is an odd ubiquitous odor
Frost crystallizes on my window

Frozen in silent isolation
Wrapped up in a lonely time warp
Lost somewhere out in the universe

You close your eyes
But you never really fall asleep
Dreaming while you are awake

Middle of the moonlit night
Engines roaring along the highway
Hope the driver doesn't fall asleep

02-17-16 Mermaids And Submariners

Down below
Sea horses float
The whales roar
Like thunder

Mermaids swim
In the deep blue
Oceans flowing
Around the world

Soldiers of Atlantis
Fighting vicious sharks
Diving with dolphins
Into ancient ruins

The mighty sea turtle
Two hundred years old
Peeking above the waves
Peaceful in rough waters

02-16-16 Dime Store Poetry

acid rains pour down
on the tops of our skulls

long day at the office
stress kills everything

I only have
a short time
to shine light
on you

it's quick
maybe too slick
back of the house
talk like that

sneak attack
copy the code
my master plan
hidden in sight

once every day
I let it bleed for you
subtracted by reality
long distance heart

hopelessly devoted
heavy metal heartbreak
lay it out on the floor
forbidden after hours

create your own world
craft a delicate web of words
kiss the heavy hearts of angels
that guide you through life

write it all down
cool attitude in the city
at the turn of the century
hungry to get to the top

confused thoughts scribbled
in my old spiral notebooks
moments recorded in time
flashing by faster than light

hot clubs every night
glitter bombed in the moonlight

lost souls wandering the darkness
sunrise comes to wash it all away

02-15-16 Cosmic Menagerie

Star child falling to Earth
Living in the spirit world
Ghost light burning bright
Magical beings from space
Native stories passed along
Spoken quietly in whispers
Witches won't mind anymore
Ancient creatures in hiding
Bizzarre monster sightings
Rocketship to the moonscape
Landing on the surface of Mars
Home to the underground caves
Traveling into another dimension
Sasquatch sleeping in the woods
Flying saucers surfing our skies
Alive inside the ancient legends

02-14-16 Good Old Dog

By my side
Faithful friend

Running in the grass
Wet with early morning dew
Come back later in the afternoon
Chasing squirrels around the park

As the years roll by
The amazing adventures continue
Until the time catches up with us
We sit quietly together until the end

02-13-16 Inside A Creative Space

We can communicate
Through expression
Shouting out loud
The words of love
Lost in the sounds
Of unlimited power
Casting magic spells
Subliminally spoken
Within subconscious
Messages in artwork
Where our demons
Are in the details
Crafted carefully
Out in the dark woods
Alone on the city streets
Drifting through space
Creating strange poems
In a free exchange of ideas

02-12-16 Yesterday Was A Dream

Return to better days
When we sipped soup
On cold winter nights
Watching old movies

It never really happened
At least not in that way
The colors were different
The smell was pretty funky

Life seemed so simple
But the pain was real
It's easier to forget it
Now that time has passed

02-11-16 Notorious Lobster Salesmen

The beauty of a butterfly
Crash your car into the sun
Volunteer to eat the universe
Monster shrimp on the beach

Robots running gas stations
Cash your check at the market
Crush your can on the sidewalk
Broken heart in a chocolate pool

Salvage the struggling civilization
Speak your mind in school tomorrow
Click your heels together three times
Remember our afternoon adventures

02-10-16 Fast Food In Your Face

Everything snaps into place nicely
Hot dogs rule the summer barbecue
Violent angels pushing evil philosophies
Tacos dripping with triple hot sauce

Loaded jokes exploding above your head
Baked potatoes overflowing with fixins
Love your family from deep inside your heart
Hot fresh pizza from my place on Eighth Avenue




   

02-09-16 Skipping Moon Stones

several stones
left over
from the moon
next door
glowing
on the
bedroom floor
seeking out
infinite powers
after hours
picking
fresh flowers
in another garden





 

02-08-16 Attack Of The Radioactive Mutant Rats

Clowns celebrate laughter
Killers involved in murder
Go to sleep on the ground
Wake up in a nuclear plant
Radiation leaking into town
Festering down in the sewers
Violence in the hot city streets
Rats infesting the neighborhood
Giant monster rodents attack
Food safety is a top concern
Contamination exposed poison
Over running under the radar
Penetrating personal boundaries
They'll hunt you in the darkness
Gnawing through the kitchen walls
To eat you alive in your own home
Chewing your bloody brains out
You can't even sleep in your car

02-07-16 Wintergreen

Out in the woods
Spirits dance
Between the trees

Snowflakes falling
Silently still
In crystal quiet

Crackling ice storm
On a cold night
In a dark winter chill

02-06-16 Poetic Orgasmatron

When inspiration strikes

My poetry explodes all over

The face of your place in space

Where the sun never shines bright

So don't ruin your universe tonight

Let your love shine through the screw

Reading the pages of your broken heart

And I never told you how I felt inside

But I did it all for the glory of your love

We never thought it would end this way

So if you approve of the moves I make

Then let the world come out to meet you

Where clean spaces grow inside strange spirals

To lift up your heart into the warmth of the sun

Where we will live together in peace forever

02-05-16 Blue Apples

Poison heart salt splash
Powerful smash storm fly
Friendly road machine cow
Movement into the moment

Planet regression track snitch
Splatter fast download available
Madness in springtime all alone
Sheep pizza smooth break star

Kiss tree attack artful smear
Drama frozen favor judgement
Potential reality development
Mauled by a zombie raccoon

02-04-16 Steps To Eternal Enlightenment

Learn to live
with your self

Let your spirit
soar to the stars

Open your heart
to the lightness

Free your mind
from real nightmares

Lift up others
when they need help

Write your name
on heaven's bathroom wall

02-03-16 Summertime Angels On Fire

Salty sting of summer swing
Until the blue ocean runs dry
Swim around with dolphins
Ride the curve in to the shore

Late afternoon sunburned skin
Fresh seafood chilled on ice
Twist of lemon spraying away
Cold beverages out on the deck

Check out the Yankees score
We are due for a big win here
My ice cream cone is melting
Meet me at the pool tomorrow

02-02-16 Classified Poetry

A city in the sky
Underground letters
Fires burning bright
Revolution is born

Secret language signals
Crack the codes quietly
Then vanish into the herd
Unlock the door to everything

Dangerous ideas spread
Messages passed along
Hidden meanings exist
Serious subject matter

You have the right
To launch a movement
Inciting a riot of expression
The new world will rise

02-01-16 Starship Meditation

Take a deep breath
Let your mind wander
Away from your body
Far off the astral plane
Out between everywhere
And nowhere in particular
Spanning the entire universe
Beyond the boundaries of time

I don't want the lights on
And I don't want a turtle

01-31-16 Love Hate

Sometimes 
You make me so mad
But I still love you
Always

01-30-16 Invisible Monsters Chasing Moonlight

Outer space catastrophe
Motion of light intensifies
Long sustained sounds of change
On a hunt for fire in the jungle
Set sail on a brilliant adventure
Madness polluted the perfection
Developing dynamics of rhythm
Painting pictures of romantic evil
Energies expanding from within
Dark cold silence awakens life
Maintain the emotion of soul
Play fast to burn hot forever
I really love the vibe darling

01-29-16 Baby

Finding love
On a deeper level
Is the only search
Worth undertaking

Seeking love
Is the highest calling
And the passageway
To happiness

When I first held you
Close to my open heart
I instantly discovered
The meaning of my life

01-28-16 Death Rattle

home sick delirious
clogged up stuffed
swallowing razors
muscle ache twist
sinus congestion
pounding skull
pressure

nostrils leaking snot
sweating fever chills
suffering through pain
never get better again





   

01-27-16 Demons Are Stalking Your Soul

Darkness runs cold

Thick blood in winter

Sadness under the surface

The nightmares you imagine

Devils impress you with charm

To gain your sincere confidence

And when you let your guard down

They suck your spirit away

Pain is the only real thing

Evil has come early this season

Black magic wizards at work

Your fate is waiting for you

    

01-26-16 Let's Move To Hollywood

Someone called the paparazzi
You know you want to know about it
Spotlight shining in your blind eyes
Buzz among insiders says you're hot

A taste of glamour out on the town
Nightlife is always a wild party mess
Always the center of everyone's attention
In the eye of the storm on Saturday night

Hang out at penthouse parties
Beg for hand outs with rising stars
Drink free cocktails at private events
Die unknown in a trendy hotel suite

Someone else is always ready
To take your place on stage
Famous names are cheap
On the road to immortality

01-25-16 Seeing Beyond Tomorrow

Echo shock is in effect
Immediate control stop

Fragment of a monster world
Endless around the galaxy

Ominous beings hunt for prey
Hulking presence of destruction

Spirituality built inside machines
Emotional robots falling apart

Synthetic milk feeding the masses
No more time to waste trying to win

Bring back the dinosaur laserbeams
Look towards your future fantasy

01-24-16 Trapped In The Blizzard Of Doom

Disoriented and bewildered
Refusing to give up hope
Can't get your car out of it
Stuck in a deep snow drift
Rocking back and forth
Struggling to keep warm
You should be inside right now
Instead of risking your life
As you try to dig yourself out
Frozen toes and fingers tremble
Starting to feel numb all over
Snot running down your nose
Starting to get tired of trying
Snow blind falling down
Found stiff in a sheet of ice

01-23-16 Chelsea Hotel #123

Souls of the living dead champions
Rattling around in the heart of town
Vibrations from the future and past
Old friends we miss who are long gone

The bar at El Quijote still serves spirits
Drop in for drinks with gods of all creation
Fall in love with the romance of the universe
Walking where walls bleed artistic expression

01-22-16 Root Beer Float Haiku

Vanilla ice cream
Root beer in a frosty mug
Creamy foam on top

01-20-16 Gloria's Candy Shop

When I was a kid growing up
There was an old candy shop
Run by a lady named Gloria

I'd stop at the candy shop
To meet the other kids
While on our way to school

You'd see people drinking coffee
Playing their lucky lottery numbers
Buying packs of cigarettes and candy

On our way home from school
We'd stop at Gloria's Candy Shop
To buy baseball cards and comic books

Then one day Gloria sold the shop
The new owner short changed me
A chapter of my childhood ended




   

01-19-16 Stardust Foxes At The Glitter Factory

somewhere
floating on
thin air

lightning
electric groove
sunset strip

riding waves
fractured attraction
exploding kiss

live wire
sizzling hot
hotel lobby

mirror mirror
on the wall
ugly inside

saturday night
every night
all night

disco ball
family fortune
get rich quick

private jet
champagne showers
party time

01-18-16 Behind The Iron Door

Snowflakes falling
From a silver sky
Safe and warm inside
An antique theater

Locked behind an iron door

Where ghosts of the past
Perform in the shadows
Dancing between spotlights
In the warm glow of eternity

01-17-16 Whispering Neon Kisses To Palm Trees

Never get another chance again
Wizards of sorcery cook up trouble
Float to the boat in the bay today
Text book drama class monologue

Relative obscurity is a great cover
Busted on the other side of the island
Struck by lightning at the turn of fate
Love is a powerful word in your language

Communicate with the starry sky dwellers
Retelling old ghost stories from childhood
Monsters growling on the prowl in shadows
March of the giant wooden robot toy soldiers

Slam contest polyurethane politics quit
Spit on the ground where you were born
Shuffle along down the beach at dawn
Split for three years to find your groove

Patience in the moments of fury forever
Flip out over your new bathroom tiles
Take a long walk through the old woods
Discover your spirit in strange places

Rise to the occasion when spotlights shine
Together alone in a heartfelt tender embrace
Digital visions connected underground online
Capture the feeling of being young forever

01-16-16 Mexico At The Crack Of Dawn

Inside the engine
Trapped
Working
Through gears
Broken down
Shifting

Feel better
Or suffer
Through
The pain
And deal
With it

Dancing barefoot
On hot white sands
Splashing around
In cool mint waters

Musical solutions
Swimming in circles
Warm ocean breezes
Under the sunshine

Soft
Still
Quiet
Relaxed
At peace

01-15-16 Immune To Radiation Laserbeams

squeeze the spirit out
ingredients of greatness
jump into a new history
open to interpretation
high profile treasure
trendy downtown logic
meditation in the park
glamorous lifestyle shot
beauty sheets in the book
write it all down right now
swan dive into the volcano
take a trip into the future
caught up between streams
wasting more time away
something strange inside
odd suspicions surround
quiet sounds turned down
snake fire breakdancing
revenge of the spotlight
farmhouse field politics
search inside yourself





 

01-14-16 Stand Clear Of The Closing Doors

In a dark subway station
Standing on the platform
Next to a tall steel beam
Coated with layers of paint
Chipped in a rainbow of age
Like rings inside a tree trunk
Ageless beauty in plain sight
Always running late to work
Thinking about the weekend
Reading billboards on the wall
Filthy rats scurry across the tracks
Watching people rush through life
Delayed due to train traffic ahead

01-13-16 Afternoon Coffee Dream

Waiting for the sunshine
There will be a new day
I may not be around to see it
But it will come anyway

Middle of the week
Chocolate sweets turn it up
The radio playing our song
Roses and champagne flow

Dance on the silver moon
Silently out in a far off sea
Learning to live a free life
You'll never catch me

No change in your pockets
Good intentions in your heart
Stumble skip and fall down hard
But the band keeps playing on

Mermaids in the lagoon
Catch a yellow cab uptown
Fascination with big city life
Hot lights blazing under the stars

Love makes it all worthwhile
Don't forget about me someday
Remember all the fun we had
Feel it deep in your heart

Bad jokes sting real bad
I know it hurts under the surface
You are suffering inside tonight
But everyone else is suffering too

Raindrops falling outside
The windows rattle a stormy chill
This is the place to be either way
Warm up by the old stove

Running around the corner
Check in at the haunted hotel
Fast action on the new west side
Look around at the circus show

Build yourself a new reality
Create a place to make a home
Decorate the walls with pictures
Listen to your own music

Thirteen mysteries hidden
Uncoded transmissions discovered
Unlocked with the keys to imagination
Left open for future puzzle solvers

Serious shift to secret words
Turn around and look me in the eye
Red hellfire in burning sugar cookies
Nobody can die when they're cool

A golden ticket to bliss
Be careful or you might miss out
Unlock the door to your destiny
Kiss this world goodbye

01-12-16 Pennies In The Wishing Well

Say a quiet prayer
Make a birthday wish
Scream your voice out loud
Sing a song of hope




 

01-11-16 Messages In Bottles

Messages you send
Out into the universe
Travel infinitely around
Like sound in an echo chamber

Their impact can increase
Exponentially over time
Affecting unknown changes
In all kinds of unexpected ways

So send your messages out
Beyond the boundaries of home
Into the hearts of anyone listening
And change the world in your own way

01-10-16 When The Robots Invaded Earth

androids destroyed our atmosphere
and made it impossible for us to breathe
survival was no longer a realistic option
our cities were burning in piles of rubble

a small band of rebel fighters struck back
to defend our world from the evil invaders
they found a weakness in the robot armies
then destroyed the mothership connection

we rose from the ashes of our fallen world
now we struggle to build a new civilization
raising the children of tomorrow to live again
planting seeds to grow a garden of new hope

01-09-16 Winter Warmth

Cold stormy night
Snuggled under blankets
Reading bedtime stories



   

01-08-16 Overworked And Overwhelmed

I feel like I'm drowning
Way out in the deep ocean
Treading water for so long
Sink or swim gets real tired
Every time I come up for air
Something pushes me down

01-07-16 A Poem From Jupiter

Did you find your face
Celestial grin in outer space
Planetary sounds in colors
Galactic temple of the mind

Lightyears left to travel
Interstellar highways fly by
Easy to see the sunshine
From the top of the moon

One spaceman to another
Communicating without words
Sharing wisdom for the ages
Raging along the astral plane

Sleeping on the inside
Seeing the entire universe
Learn from experience
Then spit it all out

01-06-16 We Are An Endangered Species

Ancient animals
Hidden deep in the forest
Existing underground
Protected from progress

Mother Nature nurtures
All living creatures
Thriving in dark shadows
Growing in numbers

Then people screwed it up
Depleting natural resources
Destroying our environment
Dying out into extinction

01-05-16 The House Blend

Our initials
Are scratched
For eternity
Into the chipped wood
Of an old recycled table
In the quiet coffee shop
Where we first met
So many years ago
When we were simply
Young kids in love

01-04-16 A God In The Land Of Giants

A super giant from the sky
Arrives to find a tiny world
Discovered first by visitors
From a thousand years ago

The giant becomes a god
The people all go crazy
And we all live in peace
Happily ever after

01-03-16 Limitations Of Infinity

flood underneath a full moon eclipse
electric circus vibrations in the street
downtown kicks on a Saturday night
immortal dance kings in full swing

bathed in colorful lights flashing quick
wicked words crafted from raw thoughts
spilled out right across the floor tonight
eternity cannot wait for you to decide






   

01-02-16 Reality Is A Matter Of Opinion

intense pleasure machine
break down stubborn feelings
important stories told tomorrow
vacation masterpiece relax again
business as usual in the fire pit
terrivle casual relationship advice
crazy sanctuary animal release
into the wild we are unleashed
ghosts tell another tale in space
the disco queen has her exit strategy
all planned out in advance on the fly
my constabt pain is the pain you feel
we spend our afternoons wisely today
a little bit drunk but not drunk enough
the mystery joke is on you once again
you were born into this universe forever
artificial humanity will worship robots
we still refuse to grow up anywhere
eat drink sleep breathe sing cry explode
clash of ideas on the root of all evil spirits
weave your passion for changing the world
matchbox connection on fire swiping secrets
reflections of elegant designs for the future
expand beyond your simple horizon line
the birthplace of cool was never exposed
bathroom politics in the amazing world
imaginary fantasy creatures exploring
insane energies let go of the other parts
push down hard on the happiness button
ambitious without becoming too fanatical
appreciation for the things that matter most
summer vibrations getting even stronger
you are wearing your peacock colors out
it's not time for sleeping it's time for fun






   

01-01-16 Following The Light

Late to the party
Wandering through
Cavernous hallways
Down deep inside
Ancient catacombs
Searching for feeling
Glowing like a sun
Running to the heart
To become part of our
Collective consciousness
