  Faceless Geometry

  Bumper car melee

  At obtuse angles jammed

  Faceless, the geometry pressed

  Our possible futures mingle

  Delayed Security of Death

  Sipping formaldehyde with medical hype


  A lab coat cloaked sterile destiny


  Balding with bare hands to compute


  Imprinting watery vitality to a blue tooth


  Chip sensor, genetic desire plunges


  Closeted towards strapped hardwired control


  Engineers veer deaths machination icons

  As chirping screens bleat out information barriers


  To pass through fat nurses and white hallways


  The delayed security of death

  Glory Through Mystery

  The conundrum 


  Gunning down a sense of mystery


  Truncating hospital lives, spewing


  Poison tar gas to advocate concrete


  Control and ruthless rulebound vocation


  My agreeable nature floats


  In, around, outside, and above


  These games of stolen pride


  I am myself, timeless bound


  To a prophesy pure within the sky



  All moods coalesce 


  All people march for destiny


  Not a name, place, or vocation
J

  ust simply realizing


  The glory of each moment

  Soulmate Imaginary

  Separated by distances


  As time dances in and out


  The evolution of our being


  Caught so tight, interwoven


  Hearts palpitating, pressing


  To explore each possible nuance


  There's a carnival of imagination


  Left poised on every vacant lot


  Teeming on the market


  With unusual resale value


  Captivating soul dance ether


  Murmuring through density of dreams


  Your thick breath whispering heat


  Draws me towards the infinite

  Energy, Being, and Void

  Emergence

  Out of darkness and ice


  Freezing mountain caverns held tight


  Elemental crystals bound up light


  No running water or cool stream's breathe


  Planet was barren, sea water still


  Starlight broke through, as galaxies changed


  It was just me and you


  Potential and empty form



  We were there with our starry hair


  Filling glops of rain as they came


  Plundering through the tundra


  Out of energy rearranged


  Tall trees climbed to their peaks


  Nothing then was the same


  Species bred insane


  It was all a new game


  Vertebrae and brain, the path to see


  Monkeys gathered closely, singing tree melodies!


  No blues were shattering the peace



  Monkeys breeding furiously


  Having a passionate shopping spree


  And look what came to be


  An upright heart!, countering


  Nature's grace


  An ape man heart lifted skyward


  To contemplate the way


  Buried subconsciously, dizzying sound


  Teased the walking ape


  With fireplace dreams, morphing skull rocks


  Paint across the sky and palms


  At every deadly cost!


  Caves and plains were scattered


  Splattered through the shaman desert


  All else is history

  Jujitsu Dojo

  We strike out on objective clash


  Were set to meet, make it brash


  She throws an elbow, duck the might


  Tackle waist first


  Still delight in sight


  Wrap an arm, advance position


  She’s still a girl


  With the greatest ambition

  Electric Imaginary Futures

  The rich vibe of electric throaty cries

  Will summon the rumble underneath

  Causing flesh to stamp its storied meat

  As a fleet, silky retreat

  Emboldens a soft, graceful week

  Love's endless repose growing complete

  Our ground is sound, the heart embrace

  Stringing past times around painted thighs

  Striking imaginary lines with pleasure

  Always finding the sunken treasure

  Inner child hand and hand

  Rolls off a red carpet flame

  So be adamant

  About chosen paths

  A creative crash provides fuel

  Triggers resolution

  New sights, new world, new mind

  Impress this Moment

  Communicative ballet


  Swarming like bats-


  Our urgent pressing bodies


  Limited in time


  Breathe their own space


  Beyond melted wax flesh


  Though still beholden


  To each reverberation of sinew


  In a disco with death


  Digital hierarchy resumes


  Unload, reload


  Move to a new folder


  Hard drive luminescent


  But our voices gather like rain


  Searching the strip malls


  Looking for love


  Amidst all the obesity


  Darling, come to me in full dance


  Bring your passion and glory


  We are the soul's history


  Given a rubber stamp


  To impress this moment


  With human urgency

  Avid Betrayal

  Mercury nights unrelieved

  Betrayal passionately suggests

  Our future- parallel in jest

  From jumping many potholes

  Freewheeling college enterprises

  Found my candle beside a manhole

  Your tongue is dirty like fame

  Is Reality Unbending?

  Beneath ground level towns meddling


  Sodden streaming business circles


  Cheap entertainment and gossip


  Beyond the stop signs and road mines


  Potholes and exhaust steaming


  Future graveyards we are ingrained already


  It will be us on those bookshelves...

  Reaching out to communicate


  Our lives and what we know


  When all the dust settles


  And we realize timeless human


  Undergoing, underwent, forever curious


  Precarious our plunder into big bold Time


  Eyes dare to capture enchanting sunlight


  Black holes spin, morph, transist


  The interwebbing of psychic space


  Dream forms land, rain dances mate with fate


  Yes, I feel the past breathing, culture teeming


  Like waddling toddlers striving to make way


  Paying open minds for youthful beings


  Bashful in open air concerto

  Yet still robust with authority's musty grenade


  Through loving every moment


  Of this silly, w
ondrous, unexplainable life

  Engineering Nostalgia

  What is value?

  I stand here peering out at the bar tab

  Wondering what fallen soldiers reside here

  Belatedly sipping away staring into space

  He checks his phone on and off

  Searching for some message and meaning

  Takes another shot, stares

  Waiting for a beautiful bride perhaps

  To jump suddenly into his frozen arms

  Then again the door floods open

  People shuffle around looking for their seat

  I'm wondering where I'm supposed to be

  Walking back into the kitchen

  The chef tells me not to stand at the bar

  So promiscuously

  I agree, it’s not favorable to see

  What is value?

  I go out into the darkened streets

  Glowing with artificial heat

  Wondering, if you can engineer destiny

  The way little store shops

  Recreate nostalgic mystery

  Collecting pennies by the breath

  The ocean front is murmuring

  In languages I still can’t understand

  As clapping heels gawk

  And old folks talk

  Newspaper gossip talk-

  I'm standing in the space of no space

  Wanton Abyss

  The future will never wait


  So I figure lets channel the surplus now


  While there's salt in the flesh


  And juices run through veins


  In the main feed of life


  Waste no time to get it right


  Keep crafting like serpent's artillery


  Charge off like bandits in the night


  Blazoned with the candle of love


  Strike me through wanton abyss


  Blissful on God's endless pyre


  Inspire the sparks of romance


  On this love emboldened

  Headless Horseman

  A body enmeshed


  In the dullard traffic


  Intravenous circuits, downhill highways


  By my side, snaking waterways


  Ruthless traffic now bashes


  No faces, no lyrical intimate


  Blast out like can opener



  This soul-flying I have dreamed


  Skyscraping every distance


  The wheels of time shift


  I ching scheduled polarities


  Thoughts scatter and drift



  This dream of civilization


  Robbing a beating
