Writing - with audio

audio link

Writing is a type of mania
But without those less desirable
side affects of other self indulgent
behaviors. It helps one to shed the
straight jacket and washes cool
The burning fires of the soul
Refreshing ever those musty places
Trapped deep within
Giving voice to
Subterranean soundings.

Animals - with audio

FOX
The fox once caught
Will try to convince
His captor that he
Is the one ensnared

PIG FOR A STY
A pig for a sty
A ring for his nose
A laborer wallowing
In food, drink and mud
A slaughter

OLD BEAR
The old bear
Will not leave the trash
Unless shot
He dies a slow
Ugly death
Yet allow him to live
Again and Again
To the trash he goes
Close by the house
Until one day
A life is taken

THE COCK CROWS
The cock crows
Nudged by the unseen
So that the world
Might know
That all
Have been cared for
During the night

A LION'S LIFE
A lion's life
Full of pride
Is a lonely life

Swimming In The Tides - with audio


audio link

Death comes soon enough
No need to sit and wait
One block falls another is set in its place
A baby is born an old man dies

Swimming in the tides
Is not a task of leisure
It is however one way
of telling the live fish
from the dead

Reflect and Remember - with audio

The greatest plagues
Attack not the body
But the mind

Memory is a dancer
Just beyond my reach
So, I am learning to dance

Epigram Trio Plus One - with audio

audio link

The man undressed
Is distressed

Teachers seldom do
What they teach others to

(ON COMPUTERS)
The green grass won't grow
Where the green glass glows 

Life is a serial to be consumed
Once it is eaten the diet has bloomed. 

Desire Ask Ascend - with audio

DESIRE ASK ASCEND
Food loses its flavor
When there is no one
To share it with

As stones are for skipping
So words are for winning
The heart of a lovesick soul

The biggest mountains
Are climbed one step
At a time

Life and Love - with audio

audio link

Life and love are free
What we do with them
Will cost us our time
And many a person's help
