“To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
– Alfred Tennyson
between the feelies and the squealies
when there is no safety in numbers
and recognition might bring distruction
and a squealie begs your help
sit him/her down, tell him/her wait
you will fetch what is needed
slowly walk away, turn a corner,
speed like hell back to a bubble!
no, Annie, don’t get your gun
that’a da way
this sorry World has swung
since territory was an issue
of survival
“ Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.”
– Dylan Thomas
it was his father’s death, not his own
birthed Dylan’s pen to write
for men becoming fatherless
for women becoming motherless
the awareness moment
pre unconsidered
tell me how does it feel
1st generation to declared
“don’t trust anyone over thirty”
to now have children
over thirty?
but i struggle
thru the Dylan story
how can knot know i,
breaker of lines
a scallarwag of words
filling in the lines
filling in the lines
down to the bottom
Page Two!
ha ha little laugher
a paranoia
a holy shiver
Where to you want to go
little one?
Would you be handed the answer
from someone’s
little black book?

playing with sound
(i’ll ask you again)
will you come and play?
