Why fall so in love?
This woman does not love me
I feel so alone

Contorted feelings
Emotional tug of war

the moods come and pass
like bullish and bearish stock
markets, their cattle

on the Street leading
to a frenzy like fish or
chickens, eating not

feed but urges to
buy, sell, make money reduced
to a "horomone"

Sitting in a cave,
bored on a lost rainy day,
that's Zabadooey.

Nothing to offer,
buys happiness by the gram,
sad Zabadooey.

Feeling a bit flushed?
Just another worthless turd,
bye, Zabadooey.

we are caught in a
political middle here
in my u-s feel

I am not sure who
represents who or for what
in this my era

the two parties in
within, why not three but still
weimar fires burned

to pearl harbors and
speculated meets of men
who must shape futures

and I miss the x
the files of aliens seem so
tame compared to now

we conserve, to try
and preserve, using old ways
for new foes or new

thoughts on the old ways
will gibson, u saw this thing
babylon and she's

a beast riding on\
an ocean of ips, habits
distilled econos

and sheltered dreamers
from libertarian to
company strong holds

holding the rope for
the tug of war till this sprawl
is not only in

city form here, but yet
spirit and social, to see
Commies replaced

with wal marts and long
laments by guys who miss bill
clinton to complain

about starr wars, the
good OJ days, like trials and
the spirit of logs

good cheer as words are
here flickering forever
marking the past for

all time till the stone
in Daniel comes down to strike
the statue of clay feet

Sitting in a cave,
bored on a lost rainy day,
a caveman doodles.

Just mere amusement
for his mate and his children,
he makes up a tale.

Centuries sever
all his throw-away stories
from marks on the wall.

Sitting in a room,
searching for truth and meaning,
a scientist thinks.

Some logic dictates,

Empty wild desolate tracts
Looking for Christine

Your words and pictures
Moved me in ways forgotten
So glad you saw it

A still part of you
Remains where you have passed by
Forever alive

The music beckons
Weaves its spell on two dancers
Eyes meet and we smile

Hands touch, igniting
as palms explore our bodies
Our arms enfolding

Heart beats against heart
We sway, limbs move rhythmically
I lead, you follow

Our souls are open
Briefly shared emotions
Remembered passion

Slowly dance as one
The dance of passion, love, death
Our joys, our sorrow

The whole world retreats
Like lovers we both dissolve
Only we exist
