The Glorious Well

If you are stimulated by resplendent imagery,
spend less time with family and friends,
drive drowsy and be late for work.

Station a cat at each rat hole—to watch
the rats. A desperate survey. Blood
and the desperate courage of the rats.

Like the Battle of Thermopolyea,
Inelucatable trouble. One cat,
keeping eyes, keeping days and nights.

Motivating Proxy Dismissals

to weigh desire for freedom against need for security
the threat that is motivating some decisions
went up and gave a very candid assessment

answered every question he could possibly answer
piles of sandbags, trenches, and barbed-wire
hardly unheard of to step aside, or be pushed aside

accused of being manipulated by external forces
repeated and irresponsible resolutions that undermine
        regional peace
the festering feud still bitter over their proxy war

Bible Study Shootings

A town bewildered by bloodprisms, throats
shooting dummy commentary at their youths,
saying guns, weapons, what? headlines, what?

automatic risk, mental health, what? what?
A trump analysis. A policeman throats

And murder pills a spree of youths
to firebrand nationalists, surprised by what
depression scales and trials their throats.

His Own Trace

In time he shed the voices of sequenced thought
witnessing the indifference of his silent cure.
A vision of extinct counterculture became his god.

He found a living population perfectly preserved by war
and utterly caught up in the idea of discovery.
Their soft bones became his tissue, their young cells his blood.

He raided classic religions for alternate ideas
either to reveal relationships or replace aged ones.
Now, he has a new thought and this time it’s all his own.

Strangeness of Prospects

“a vertical and unwavering band of light”
containing a wealth of digressive discussions
the discontinuity of chronological structure

“My art, my voice, my imagination, my characters”

Distinguished by Behavior

At the flick of a switch common sense
Defeats things like the vast of night
For some edged and fallen people

But to be lulled where the things that make people's lives
The inspiration for a false sense of hope are being fitted
Would feel closer to anti-social behaviour

To be introduced brightly
Following a welter of criticism
Appears ever more the worst thing
