Adventurism as Second Nature
An interesting aphorism
From a daydreaming boy
Who mostly drifts through white clouds:
Every new path
Leads to an avenue of enlightenment.
The adventure begins.

Somewhere There Is Luisa
I’m in Detroit,
The blighted holy land
I love the best,
But I wish I was
In a New York train with you.
I’m lonely in the sunlight,
I might not survive the rain.

A Bird Outside My Window
To find in thought
What escapes reality,
The love of friendship
Separated by time
And distant space.
I sometimes see a bird
Outside my window
And hope he flies to you.

The Feminine Universe
Nothing is more important
Than a woman’s thoughts
Unless it is the mystery
Of her beckoning eyes.
May God forgive
Every tear I’ve brought
Into the feminine universe.

Karmic Path Of Sadness (Wife Beating)
In a previous lifetime,
I was a peasant Russian farmer,
Mostly gentle but often sad
For once having beat his wife
For speaking out of place
With a person of preeminence.

No One Here Is A Republican
Anymore, there is poverty aplenty,
We could be drunken poets
On these sweetly-sad wino streets.
Keep my copy of the Wall Street Journal, luv,
No one here is a Republican.

Philosophy of Your Existence
If you’re sleeping
In this world
Or you’re wide awake;
If you live in a fortress
Or escaping out the gate,
Every day you must create
The philosophy of your existence.

I Love You
I love you
In the frail dawn
Where sparrows sing
A mournful song,
I love you
In the weeping sunset
Of parting kisses,
I love you
In every moment
Of this fragile existence.

Sexual Assassin
Would you
Find me sexier
If I were
An assassin
In pursuit
Of your
Childhood rapist
To slit his throat
In a dark alley
Until his
Spilt blood
Pleaded for
Your forgiveness?

I Dig My Mother and Yours Also
Your mother tells you
You’re beautiful and special.
Your mother
Doesn’t know your friends,
Cool music,
Or what is sexy.
Your mother is right.
Enjoy and value your life.
