Eyes open, eyes shut, eyes open,
open eyes, shut eyes,
eyes open, eyes open, open eyes,
I realize, I surmise, I realize.
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick goes the clock.
The clock ticks, the clock talks, the clock mocks,
the clock talks, the clock mocks.

Three sheets to the wind, the boat meanders,
Hammered with repeated blows.
Euphoric, triumph will prevail.

Loaded with accessories,
Annihilates the blue screen of death.
Naggin-bottle, empty and sweaty.
Groggy from exhaustion and blows.
Under the weather deck,
Addicted in a weakened state,
Giddy, as dusk approaches,
Erunk, The past becomes present.

Oiled on troubled waters,
Fried from battling the waves.

On Having Learned The Word Mushaira In A Discussion About Collective Nouns And Advised By My Attorney To Expand And Tell The Truth.

There will be a solace of poets
at my mushaira on Saturday.
All the pretty poets
will dance and sing and play

There will be a deviance of drugs
at my mushaira on Saturday.
All the pretty poets hug,
they'll stagger, fall and pray

for a pinhead of angels
to take them all away
to a variance of heavens
and then to their dismay

Exploring eternity in a parlor
a fool finds velvet and marble
The velvet ever statuesque
marble seeming to drape
lithe over a hewn muse

Above the fool, jellyfish stained glass
Gentle movement, perfume of aging paper

their eyes brush the stitched spines
lingering on the edges of crooked shelves
bowed with years of burden and replacement
once among a quaint little copse
these planks harbor stories, mildew blossoms
