wasted

Wasted
8-5-13


Superfluous bananas are discarded
In the lack of a morning meal
Wherein by such karma
I spin another Monday wheel
Of superfluous portions
More than enough
Where the road ahead is smooth
In that such is rough
Of superfluous serenity
Of which I choose to be content
With no longer chasing
The state of my ecstatic pursuits
In that I am satisfied
With the simplicity of well being
Just the way that it comes
With my Phil on drums...




















Unavailing
8-5-13


Enfeebled and wasted
In my past tense sweet Zinfadel
Tried and tested
By my three year achievement of sobriety
Not the easiest way to walk
In the new ways of ambling and staggering
Back to the work at hand
In that which I prophesy in part
Enfeebled and wasted
Where debilitated
In that I am loved and therefore hated
Where every drop matters of the seed
The restless consumer yet scatters
Enfeebled and wasted
To serve as the trial yet at hand...










Engross
8-5-13


Engrossed and in the flow
That which I come to know
Up against the windshield
Of another Fed Ex truck
By which my faith doth grow
Reading again in the minor prophets
By my pleasurable itch
Upon my great toe
To acquire large quantities
Of excess leftover grace bestowed
Upon those that still yet seek
Where the humbled are exalted
Where blessed are the meek
Wherein we are strong
In that we are weak....








































Absorbed
8-5-13


Absorbed in stratovarious sessions
That begin another poetic and prolific day
Where I set my pen free
Over herbs and black Cavendish
And all of such luxuries
In raw turnips and eggplant stir fries
By the lows of all highs
In no need to inquire of the whys
Grooving to the new beat
New to me
Yet according to such release
An artifact of authenticity absorbed
In such a curiosity
To serve as the idol
Of my conscious choice...








Condoned
8-5-13


Expletives and intensifiers
Are condoned in a poetic sense
Of natural utterances
Of our reaction to such stigma we yet face
Where all words are meaningful
In that we learn the language
Of such irate venting
Into empty spaces
Of our thin air of abusive language justified
In the way that we feel
In that we find
That all of this drama
Is indeed real
Of expletives and intensifiers
To express that which we stir up
In the sediment
Of what lies in the real me...










Positional
8-5-13


Mentioning not names
Scholars once again read
From the epistle of James
To crown our queens
And our dames
Mentioning only positions
Of this eminence in what's yet to come
Where the humbled are exalted
As the base drum struck
To make the sound of sonorous sovereignty
Of salvation according to all that is subtle
In all of this
That is here and now...
