No one reported on the
Missing girl in Baghdad,
Or the lost boys in Kandahar.
It never became important
To consider such an outcome,
Until salt was spread here.
Westerners
forgot
that
elephants
will
do,
When mechanized infantry
Eventually runs out of fuel.

Glow
Freezing fog smothering,
Last gleamings of truth.
Soldiers with refrigerator doors
For shields sleep in foxhole ditches.
Sub-humans raid the postman for
New dvd releases and bills they won't pay.
Boomers mingle safely in the malls,
Aimlessly wandering the jogging circles.
Agents fortify the Krispy Kreme and guard it
Like there is a purpose left for something.
Basement candles burn occasionally as
Remnants try to make it new again.
See Jane run. Run, Jane, run.
Last gleamings of truth.

Grocery Store Credo
Beware the manager and cashier
Both afflicted with poison ivy.
Never cluck behind the two-way mirror
While old ladies ladle whole fryers.
If it won't fit on the shelf,
Pluck it and put it on the shelf anyways.
Community pools are great in the summer,
Yet you still can't tray-pack a dragon.

Walking Nude in Gudger
Getting out of the truck
To get home before dark.
I realize too late again,
The truck is going there too.
I race up over the hill in time
To catch the descending ride.
(The curves of the countryside
forcing slower vehicle descent.)
Then I notice that I have no pants
And wonder when they disappeared.
My times in this strange place dissipate
When fresh Levis reform my lower body.
The whippoorwill segues with twilight
In Mount Vernon, safe from the Jubileers.

The Doubting
Did I tell her the truth?
Was our last meeting earnest?
Why did I wear that red shirt?
Sometimes time
Is the real enemy,
Disguised as unending.

Hidden
I blend into the shadows,
Fade away within the twilight,
Hunker quietly in the gloom.
My voice is but a faded echo.
An old dream never remembered,
A faint itch gone before scratching.
My eyes see slayers creeping,
Light forms all deftly subdued,
Vivid colors reduced to paleness.
My ears hear faint rattles,
The sound of one hand clapping,
The push of the celestials.
My hand guides the invisible,
Leads them to points unmapped,
Holding the orphaned event horizons.
Spin away the downward spiral,
Flush the fashion and the vogue,
Feel my presence-be windblown.

Ophelia
His love fell.
We all fall.
The water waits,
To drown us all.
The sun winks,
The moon smiles.
The stillness waits,
For endless miles.
Shudder and twitch,
Embrace the key.
Descend the depths,
Become the sea.
We all fall.
The water waits,
To drown us all.

The moon smiles.

Become the sea.
The Flower in the Rock
Against a pallid sky a flower blooms amid the arid stillness.
The red bloom a contrast to the beige and gray twisting background.
There are no human eyes to see such decoration in this wasteland,
Yet the beauty persists and calls back to more bountiful times.
Finally, a solitary bee, weary from its long search for manna,
Alights and drinks of the nectar from this isolated oasis.
Pollen clings to his body as this lonely messenger buzzes away,
Hopeful of finding yet another such prize before ending his daily ritual.

Special to MVPL from BCM
The Lost (part 2)
Terra firma, sayonara.
Boating, baiting, bonding.
This can’t be happening.
Surely they will find us soon.
Already bathing so
Strange to want a hot bath,
A cold drink.
Anything hot,
Anything cold.
Can I sleep?
Better not (why not?)
Surely they will find me soon?
Floating down, down.
Sensory overload
Then depravation.
Am I dreaming?
Am I drowning?
Yes.

Haunted Carnival
Driving past the stands,
Seeing the prep for the new day.
Hearing the chatter of the carny folk.
I dream the prizes,
See the secrets,
Know the truth for ten minutes.
Waking, forgetting, yet feeling.
Still.

The Lost
A feeling of remorse,
A feeling of satisfaction,
A feeling of dizzying triumph.
An insight into another mind,
An encompassing silence,
An unknown love, glowing like the sun.
The first cry of freedom,
The glory of independence,
The realization of infinite abilities.
New ambition,
New determination,
New drugs to make the voices stop.

Blue Haze
When the sun is just a bobbing white cork
Seen through a liquid glass, there is time
To remember the red tricycle that
You rode across the yard endlessly.
Now in quite stillness your thoughts glide
Back to Saturday morning cartoons and
The popcorn in oil cooked on the stove top
For the movies on later that night.
"My mother is a fish," whispers your
Long-finned escort as you drop slowly,
Slowly to the hidden beach, the lonely resort
Decorated with conch and moving stars.
You pedal and remember the heat from those
Dog Days and how the cows would be so still,
Frozen in place on the pastures at times,
Locked in a painter's gaze, then you see her face.

Liars and Tangents and Bores---Oh My!
Ilsa is hungry and cold.
Grey Carpathian clouds bathe her and whisper,
"You do not matter,"
As Kanye West blares out on the village square.
Instant communication and isolation,
Powers merging capital lost within concrete spires.
The beauty of the lone dove abstracted
Into charity black holes worthy of Sagan.
Gorged on hormones and certified nutrients,
Western Saviors worry that Wal-Mart will
Begin to charge for plastic shopping bags, content
That moral compasses are available on E-Bay.
Zombies attack giant plasma screens in surround sound,
American Idol smothers remaining conscience sparks.
Ilsa doesn't return home, her rigid empty body
Prone on the dirty Balkan street, forgotten, unGoogled.
