I write because my time is limited and my imagination is not.
The eye between the lids of sand and sky Everything human dwindles and scurries Our pride would reason and nature defy Tremble before our titanic worries

You probably won't buy this, but I'm serious Contemporary reality seems more and more like bad fiction Most of us can't quite believe it, but we have to live with it
So many petty worries and concerns Rumors to be spread and gossip savored Garments to be displayed with fresh patterns For your sleek or stout forms. deftly tailored
No mind can be made More reasonable by the Slaughter of bodies

If it is your ambition to vanish You have no need of scientific guile Nor will spells translated from the Spanish Allow your form to disappear with style
Another summer May not be mine to embrace I will love this one
I thought it was just me The fatigue It is mine, but not mine alone There are many other humans I have heard good arguments for loving
Beware the enthusiastic censor Busy insulting your intelligence Eager to usurp the role of mentor Convinced that there's nothing beyond the fence
Most of the alleged "Deep dives" are actually Laughably shallow
Tell them to keep their nasty chips You don't need new hardware You've had language all along How can anyone find reading stories boring?
The persona is so carefully made Sculpted and painted to please other eyes By each of us, a role is deftly played The finest actor old logic defies
Seven hundred and Seven poems and stories Thank you for reading!
