crumbs gone
hungry blue Jays ate
moss bone dry
sun light dwindles
cast long stare
Hollywood
eating my words [xiii]

apostate’s haiku
not all spirits were meant to be part of an entourage my hand says

i’ll be in good company ii
my good friend at
Unforsenities

added this rockin eulogy! thank you Tim 🤟
Old school class and full of brass
commanding attention with her eyes
A princess who tumbled from the stars
who phoenix-like rose again
Flaming fancy fingered magic
on ivory burned bright to the last note
A legend who lived life on his own terms
abrading our ears with his throaty roar
A giant though in stature small
who;s voice and horns pierced us all
forever they will soar together among the stars
may they alight as one on the silver mountain
i’ll be in good company





2317
we
wrestle
wildly
without
words
willfully
wrong
when
woeful
wasting
to the boy from other poems
if we never fly
if we never dream of life
in other directions
if we never tilt our hats
by Johnny’s tomb
if we never smoke Cuban cigars
and tango with Tom Waits
if we never see each other again
know that you were enough to make me happy
simple
one drop of time is
all i need to tell you that
i love you deeply
reason a\○
i’ve come this far to love

ultimate sacrifice
i saw a man weep
over his son’s grave today
i held his shoulder
