Avocado
10-2-13

So it's Amen to my first avocado
And O Hallelujah
It was like rape peeling off the skin
And popping out the pit
An interesting experience
Meaning amusement yet not confusion
Where the expert shows his gentleness
In the cutting of its green flesh
Delicate and decadent
With its tincture of the soporific
I slept good last night
To dream about sleeping on an airplane
Flying only across town to where I'm at
Here and now....





Morning Buzz
10-2-13

On this second day of our government shutdown
Libraries and convenience stores go not affected
Where I block the world out
With my Alice Cooper morning buzz
Given the breakfast of poetic victors
Of carbonation fresh and cold
A sensation that never gets old
Being filled with the fruits of righteousness
Of love, joy and peace
Loving what I see
Even when she might be obese
Given my fetish like a gift
Writing these compositions
Till I get my life
Here, now and today
Where all is Now on this second day....





On Romans 13:28
10-2-13

Knowing that summer is over
With by the leaf of the fig tree currently fallen and blown away
In winds expected across the east end of town
Knowing that fall is here by an earlier sunset
Beautiful and dark
Where I prefer that I see not
What's in front of me
Where James, John and Andrew ask
O, what will be the sign
To serve as a deficiency of faith
Leading to the hope in things not seen
As the leaf of our fig tree is no longer green
Hoping to make our way
Into our year of fourteen.....




Working On Something
10-2-13

There is safety today in humility and compassion
Saying my prayers for all at work on something
As a thing I do by way of the pen
Today where sorrow is better than joy
Serving as the base of all
Affecting ones countenance for the better
Where I know safety in the love
I choose in supplications
For those at it again
Where my command is to yet watch
Where I drink my Coke without the added scotch
Here as an observer making my choice
To learn from this available beauty at hand....
