05-31-15 Stormy Skies Alive

Lightning strikes
Cars abandoned
People escape
Wading in water

Storm damage
All around us
Thunder cracks
Across the sky

Power lines down
Highways flooded
The rains pour down
Beating hard on the ground





   

06-30-15 Cowboy Astronauts

Trapped in the web
Tangled up in technology
Old familiar sounds soothe
Warm quiet tranquil safe

Lost inside outer space
The road ahead will be hard
Thinking about the universe
Fly away into the stars

05-29-15 Seaside Summer

Afternoon sunshine
Blue skies fresh air
Misty sea spraying
White sandy beaches

Gulls squalking
Dolphins dancing
Salt of the ocean
Cool tropical breezes

Shells scattered
Starfish gathered
On the shoreline
At low tide






     

05-28-15 Diamond Language

swing right through it
chopper to the right side
a bloop and a blast to win
jump in out on the grass

throw a cookie down the middle
cheating a bit to the right side
then sneak one in against the shift
a ricochet rocket to the corner

living in the history books
solo shot over the left field fence
a flamethrower out on the mound
from a great spot to watch the game




   

05-27-15 Replacement Speed

Time of the day
Go ahead tomorrow
Forget about the future
Live in the past tense

Wheels turn backwards
Travel through centuries
They had no idea anyway
Losing history in a moment

05-26-15 All The Miles On This Road

Tough rag zipper clock
Half of the ocean roughly
Several moments expire
Fitness size fun extreme
Bonus favor shake pretend
Milk bottle dinosaur game
Mental breakthrough mind
Over matter begins again
Silent way of the ninja





   

05-25-15 Puzzles Inside Your Hrart

False words in other languages
Stack the score in a street hustle
Change the minds of civilization
Spend your free time sleeping
Freeze the extra funds you spend
Fix the hearts you smashed before
Make yourself useful for once
Kiss the broken heart of lies
Fly like a free bird soaring

05-23-15 Echoes In The Subway

Riding a subway train
As it snakes through tunnels
Pulling into station after station
Underground graffiti wonderland

Mysterious creatures lurk in shadows
Strange fog rolling from the darkness
Ghosts of commuters roam the platform
Strong energies trapped in time forever





   

05-22-15 Swimming In The Northern Lights

Look into the light
It's a beautiful light
A colorful light

The night sky
Is fresh and cool
Colder up north

Snowballs fly
Snowflakes fall
Snowbirds sing

Long journey
Rise to the peak
Peace at last

Great stuffed animal races
Crayons drawing new shapes
Alphabet letters on parade
Hula hoops and baseball games
Comic book superhero imagination
Running wild in the afternoon
Playing hide and go seek
I found you






   

05-17-15 Your Self Is Showing

Who are you
Who are you really
Who are you hiding
Who do you want to be

You're nobody
Until you are
Somebody

You're not
Who you say
You are

We are
The star
Of our
Own show




   

05-16-15 Exotic Age Of Evolution

Pick and choose your poison
Pickled cucumber in a jar
Take a long vacation and relax
The years soldier on past

Time will break you down
Inside outside around town
Hot coffee and a newspaper
Tradition habit routine change

Acid rain pours down from above
Sinister winds are blowing back in
Wounded creatures survive in pain
We all will go through it all over again





 

05-15-15 Low Fives On The High Line

LATE LAST NIGHT IN THE DARKNESS
MORNING CAME PREMATURELY
SUFFERING UNEXPECTEDLY PUNISHED
BUT WE DIDN'T CARE AT ALL
WE ONLY GOT SICKER STILL
IN STOMACH PAIN CYCLES
SOOTHING THE AGONY AWAY
WITH EXTRA REALITY DOSES
OF HEARTACHE MULTIPLIED BLIND
SO DON'T DRINK THE WATER INSTEAD
WATCH TV UNTIL YOU FALL ASLEEP
THEN SLEEP AGAIN UNTIL THE SPELL FADES OFF






   

05-14-15 On The Road To Ruin

Guns in the trash
Are ruining our home
We kill the cancer
Then we fight back
And sleep alone together




   

05-13-15 Night Of The Shadow Creatures

A dark shrouded figure
Disappears into a shadow
Sneaking around the room
Creeping in shady corners

The demons got inside here
Through a crack in the wall
Now they'll never leave alive
Before spreading their evil seed




   

05-12-15 I've Got A Wonderous Idea

Let's all stay in bed
And sleep all day
Forget about the time
Hideaway from work today

The stars and moon
Sunshine afternoon
Turn off the daylight
Bring on the night
