Poem: Not-A

NOT-A

The not-a-telephone does not ring
The not-a-light does not glow
The not-a-freezer is not cold
The not-a-television is black
The not-a-radio is silent
Outside -
I hear birds
And the wind
And occasional voices
The not-a-engines are silent
And some seek others...
Others cower alone
And noone knows
Why everything stopped
The not-our-world is changed?

Poem: Me (cummins tribute)

ME


May I, said me
Of course, said we:
Me & he she & she
How can I, said me?
Be you is all, said we:
Me & he she & she
I shouldn’t have, said me
Too late, said we:
Me & he she & she
How did I, said me?
It is you, not us, said we:
Me & he she & she
I’m sorry, said me
Silence, said we:
Me & he she & she
Talk to me, said me
We don’t know, said we:
Me & he she & she
Let’s follow together, said the:
He & he she & she.

Poem: i

i
I was i (little i)
The i before I (big I)
The
awarness
i
was afraid of:
being alone;
&
rejection by family and friends;
&
failure;
&
those i thought better.
i dreamed
but was aftraid to act.
i
afraid of his flaws
but i
never afraid of tomorrow
so i became I
who is still afraid
but can accept
fear.

Poem: Time

TIME

Time
does not function the mechanism is broken and yet -
everyone is older than before
without Time
so Timeless is not frozen but the absence of -
and Time is still there but not functioning and yet -
everyone is older than before
but there was never a without Time since -
Time was always there and did not function
because the mechanism is broken so -
Time is not age and -
Exists without time though -
Time was never without it just -
Time does not function so -
what does broken Time mean?
since time is never in absence but -
only not functioning and -
age continues to happen
happen time ageless but not less

Poem: I am Lost

I AM LSTO

Iam lsto
The ideas, the concepts
the quagmiire of too many, to sort, to understand,
of opposing views, of opposition, of destruction,
as words, written and spoken, few understood, few accepted
as most fly on past, to the past, gone before I can understand them,
as channels change, and pages turn, too quickly, too gone, too gone, too gone,
I am lost.
As I sit at my computer, writing, composing, decomposing, the words of the great,
I realize how few, and how too many the greats were, and the greats aren’t and
I start
confused, cfoneusued - iedas, cceonpts, hTe sntecne, as I wtrie it, bceoems cfseonud nda lsot in oot mnay iedas form yteredeasy nad tdoay. aWtl hiWmtamn is het fehtar of dab pertoy.
So I srot het iedas oznigarng tehm by ptirioy an
Iam lsto.
