Fears Leave Today


Catastrophic car bombs
deeply unsettled officials
on opposite sides.

Inside a shrill sloganeering square:
unsettling silence.
Policemen muttered; protestors sat still.

So much screaming so early.
In full force, 18,000 gathered

Holding This House


Looking for a little home
is enough to test this history.
A chance to add another notch in time.

It's difficult to imagine
a house containing secrets
that would destroy the first white surrender.

Patiently focused in one impromptu direction.
This Is Us

The mystique of the modern-day Edison,
a troubled cultlike figure begs, the rise of the dominant

On Finding Life


Reading of an Alabama sex parasite
fighting for businessman consciousness
after studying medical rats...

"Eating brain rare,"
apparently official scientists said,
"continues on to Tuesday and after death."

"Swallowed hearts," some report,
"have shed brief human possibilities,
a verdict infected with a light electrical charge"

Three Diversionary Worlds


the eponymous pyramid

secrets of a jade globe

a chameleon on stucco
the richest mixture of TV shows
decorated with actual feathers

trotting up to visit the spirit of the mountain
surprise!
it's a summit of downtrodden tourists

Pro-Regime Curve Split


treacherous curve sharply reduced speed ignored warnings

series explosions ripped weapons depot at least
and injuring fireball hundreds of feet into the air
some seriously dozens wounded blew up pro-regime after rocket

shedding certain belongings nothing to do with marital split
nothing without some kind of strategy or agenda
rings with the tenor of the times another game he is playing
