Imagining you
dark chocolate fine red wine
your scent in my cumJack 5/12
Apricocks... Be kind and courteous to this gentleman; Hop in his walks and gambol in his eyes; Feed him with apricocks and dewberries, With purple grapes, green figs, and mulberries; The honey-bags steal from the humble-bees, And for night-tapers crop their waxen thighs And light them at the fiery glow-worm's eyes, To have my love to bed and to arise; -Shakespeare: Midsummer Night's Dream

Need
Need
We need the air to breathe
The air does not make us needy
The deeper breath we take
The stronger we are

Spittle and Blather
Spittle and Blather
Have you ever encountered a gaggle
Young mothers pushing their offsprings'
Strollers postulating the joys babies
Bring lifting them to show
But seeing just their own
Baby reaching out its tiny finger
As piercing screech of a blue-throated macaw
Erupts startling need crying out its existence
Upon these crawling creatures
Young mothers project their fantasies
Hopes dreams imaginations of able men
Women one day making them proud proving
Their pride fulfilling what mothers
Married working walking their progeny
Cannot do for themselves
What do you think or feel
Value as you watch their excited faces
That this is life the meaning we all
Yearn full of passion to gain
Do you see these happy women
As beauty as joy as comfort
Is their love for these small beings
Ultimate unconditional unassailable
Am I alone in finding my fulfillment
Otherwise in choosing to abort
As I did
Delighting not in what my semen
Became but in the seed my mind shares
Yet you will point out sweetly to me
That I like them shall one day be
Blather and spittle
Crying out in pain or wonder
As what life I have departs
Those gathered around
Will say how sad he has no children
No sons no daughters to bid farewell
If a few of those who've loved me all these
Years live still
They will bid my drooling mouth
Good bye
You will witness what flights of meaning
I achieved.

Yeux
Yeux
How do you say eyes in French
How do you say eggs
When first I saw you
Cafe in Paris
My desire hatched
My desire to hold your hand
My desire to fertilize your eggs
Like a cod
Nager dans la mer

Lake Country Seed
Lake Country Seed
When I was yet a student lad
First time visiting the Finger Lakes
I hung upside down
From the cabin's playground monkey bars
Naked
You said to me
"You looked like an animal."
You wouldn't have sex with me
That night our host
Offered me more
We unmade his bed
We fucked like animals

What
What (Ironic Self-deprecation to Release Tension)
So what the fuck will you say
Old man with a scrap goatee
You old goat let us tell you
Death bed nursing home enema bag
Want something to stick in those varicose veins
Come on say something wise
We dare you dare your impudent impotence
Old fag what would you do if we spread our legs
Were you there when Caesar shot across the Rubicon
When they shot Kennedy and Camelot
Fell to Morgan and Modred and Merlin froze
You sat there a kid in Latin reciting
They said on the intercom "The President is dead"
What now dry skin can you get it up knowing
They broke your round table
That all your kings and knights are rot
Make us laugh old man jester
Lear's tragic old fool dance
Sing strum a guitar say something deep
So we can like you and your old bone
Like you and your wit whats left of it
Like you because we feel sorry for your
Feeble attempt to be cool like we are
Young like we are
Hipsters the way we are (Not!)
You can't be our mirror man
We are not your masturbation fantasy
Are we are we
Poerm
Poerm: Po-erm Dfn: A poem-like expression using words to convey what is otherwise ineffable, with always an eye on, or other sensory awareness of, Eros. Thanatos may be substituted or play a part as well.
