If ever you are lost
look to the islands anchored in your eyes.
I am the waving anemone in your cobalt pools.
If ever you are cold and afraid
look for my torch lit hands in your nightmares.
I will send them to lead you through the tunnel.
And if I should die before you
inhale my last breath and I will live
infinitely within your reach. | |

I've got my camouflage
bits and pieces
feast and feces
pasted in a decoupage
a layer of glue
glazed and brittle
between me and you
while I dodge
and skittle
with a mirage
you're thirsty in the desert
and you want an oasis
and I can provide it
in one of my faces
and any emotion
is genuine
but the coin has two faces
and turns on a dime

Because
All this because an abstract
grew fractal lips and remote
hands sculpting textured
lyrics - inaudible to the blind,
a symphony for the deaf,
reclusive colors curling the
corners of our mouths
and when it was done
two alabaster throats
we are one
song. | |

If I were heading for the dominican
I'd be thinking like a boy scout again
pack my noaa radio
in with my solar generator
you ever been to a good hurricane party?
fvck the lights, you need an ice machine
we have candles and lanterns and everything
on the rocks, anybody?
and always keep a case of merlot
or something else that's decadent at room temperature
incase the generator runs out fuel
I'm not going out 'til the eye goes over
Unless it's to check my goddam fishing pole
running a barometer test and all
even shrimping, we caught the best ones in winter storms
same way up north with trout and salmon
Gotta have a Q-beam aimed at the surf
never gonna hear the clicker go off
strap this EPIRB clad lifeline onto your back
then hold on tight to somethin'
just hope that I don't get hit by lightining
it'll be like holding a kite string tied with a key
and women really hate that
their hair can never again be straightened..

portrait of deepest hues
shining
like the golden sun
breaking through the clouds
optically delusional
mirage created by the heat
between us
imaginary lines
wrapping our thoughts together
streaks of royalty
purples...
kaleidescopes
create
cataclysmic happiness
created
hunter green auras
falling softly to the ground
patch of night sky
deepest blue
rushing into
silver starlight
as fiery bursts of aged gold
speak of times
long gone
streak night
dancing through
untold
realms
of minds
imagery
cerebral

Jujubee...this time it's not just imagery, it's reality!!! The next time I write will be from our new home in a Caribbean. An oceanfront paradise. We're actually living the dream! Fairy tales can come true. | |

Posted: 8/3/2008 1:15:21 PM | Well, I reckon sister mary and yoko are sitting in miami right now
Had to hang out and test dad's blood sugar, or I would have gone down
lol sad but true
someday in the future
I know exactly how it feels
to step off of the plane and smell that hot moist salt air
excites and relaxes all of your senses at the same time
and I bet you're eatin' somethin' that has a fresh slice of lime
I'm trying not to go all Buffett
but, what the fvck?
live, he does cuss
you'll prolly run into him down in the islands
he'll be the bald guy that sister mary is fvcking with
just walk up and give them both a kiss
I doubt that they shut up
but, at least you'll get to kiss Buffett
I've seen enough surf to know what you're looking at
amazing, isn't it
if you guys weren't so old you could see africa
oh, forgot about the earth's curvature
doesn't it look like the ocean goes on forever?
in miami, you can even look east and watch the sunset
makes you realize why they used to think they'd drop on the end of the earth
hell, nowdays, we jump
just thought I'd stop by with a bottle of champagne
do a little boat christening
yanno you're gonna have to get one
you're not in kansas anymore, darlin
and a toast is in order
to the border patrol
different than those uptight canadian ones
they'd shoot you if you'd been drinkin
well, I had to toss something politcal in
noone cares in the islands
don't forget to kiss buffett when you get the chance
I'll come down and show y'all the ropes as soon as I can get off of dry land
love you, bye | |

a rapid naked gorrilla
dis a ssoc i at e d
learns to embrace
the bumbling flutter bees
opalescent butterflys in old trees with new truth
instead of chewing on the wings
damn , outta ketchup again.
good to hear yall survived the trip, and ridin the vibe. | |

Posted: 8/9/2008 5:03:52 AM | hey slackers, put down those umbrella drinks and post to us... God, I'm so jealous.....
drown
upon the pinnacles of birth.
holistic earth
the seeds are planted
in our young
to restore the damage
we have done
and we inherited
nature never merited
this disgrace
her mangled face
may one day turn upon us all
as polarity shifts
our big brown ball
mankind's fall
shimmering in a water wall

Posted: 8/12/2008 5:23:57 AM | a dear friend asked me...so I posted your ID...forgive me
But when I first read your lines
I wanted an umbrella to shade me
Your gift is too precious
I'm attempting fate
called mosiac
hey that's life! | |

Posted: 8/12/2008 5:51:16 AM | No worries AD
I have no permanent ID
my poems scatter in the wind
a signature dissolving beneath
the sea and I'm only alive
when friends remember me
(sorry about the rhyming... it's early)
Cheers! | |

Posted: 8/23/2008 8:20:55 PM | rhyming....it's my dirty little secret.....I'm so ashamed....
bedazzled
Living is merely survival
but truly loving is an art
like the arrival of dawn
it softly advances
across your heart
and lights all hidden imperfections
with acceptance to impart
and fresh new chances
lightened by love's grace
your soul dances, dances

Posted: 8/25/2008 4:26:49 PM | | I was teasing, that's why I winked......it's just funny that we apologize for rhyming, when it used to be the writing style in favor...the irony of it makes me smile..... | |
