L’Usurper de l’Amour
She was prone to moonwrath; She was coming to goldenness; It was an outblown image of potential – Forever was smiling and playing with her hair. Catullus was laughing bitterly, And butterflies opened like hearts, The slaves all walked to the sea, now dark, But she…she was prone to moonwrath, Unleashed upon tides, economies, minds,…

Rites of the Holy Non-Sequitur

A Poet’s Prayer
If these verses be not great, Let them be better Than all I have written before And all that anyone else is writing. Give me the strength to change All that cannot be mine Into my greatest inspiration, Let me find victory in my defeat, Words to cover up reality’s bad patches With all the…

As you shake your head, He jumps across a stretcher In a bombed out home, Violence, Violence, Everything is violence Cries the teacher. Armies come and go and wander in between Finding cities to sack Women to rape Children to enslave Blood to spill again and again When does it end you ask? He laughs,…
