Part I
I am one of millions
blown by the winds
a dandelion seed
just a weed gone wild
who fell into the crack 
of a sidewalk
wedged tight and rootless
my feathery parachute 
stuck to something 
more concrete
than I'd ever desired.
let the tears of a passing storm
wash me into the soil
that I call chance
and I will burst in 
bright greens and yellows
to brighten the 
ghetto of my world.

If not then bury 
my withered remains
in potters field
until I become clay
that the master 
potter above
can reform with love
into a vessel worthy
of holding on to
something far more
than a childish wish
and a puff of 
exasperated air.

I am the 
unfinished prayer
the sermon still 
germinating
an incomplete poem
that wallows in 
the cathedral of my skull,
nothing penned 
can capture me
until I am freed 
from this pathway
to obscurity.
Part II

Where will we go 
in the after life,
after the muss 
of the morticians knife, 
will we wander strange worlds
where old memories are hurled
like cold rain on our face
with no flesh left to wipe.

Will we find just oblivion 
when death comes by delivering, 
that one long final gasp, 
near our loved one's who clasp, 
but can't hold us no more,
as we slip into nothing 
and sleep evermore.

Is death like a nap, 
that we'll wake from someday,
and stand before God,
in a judgemental way....
or is it a chapter
that ends every story
with peace...happy endings
somewhere far off in glory.....

There's no end to this song,
cause I've yet met my own, 
there's no answers of course,
only coffins and bones,
but I swear on my grave,
when I reach the unknown
I will publish the truth
in a song or a poem. 

As a ghost writer slipping
into some writers brain,
I will bring the world truth,
so that all who remain, 
can at last seek the path
that will lead to less pain......

Whispering death's like a nap, 
that we'll wake from someday,
and stand before God,
in a judgemental way....
or that death's our last chapter
that ends every story
with peace...happy endings
somewhere far off in glory.....

Or something far worse,
that all good men will curse,
from the dank realms of hell, 
what a story I'll tell...

I'll be dead anyway,
it's the least I can do,
no more poems, no more songs,
just my final debut.

So if in some wee hour,
you mind is invaded,
by some unearthly power,
by this poet belated, 

Just be sure that you write,
every word that I send,
lest you wind up a sequel.
in which "you'll" write
THE END !


Part III

Parchment flesh is

marred by age spots
faded ink blots over 
the blue veined 
scritch-scratched
lines of life waning.

Time writes 
its soliloquy
from the wells of
watery, cataract
clouded eyes.

Lips tremble 
over the mutterings
of some long 
forgotten dream,
as hankies genuflect
beneath sorrows leaked.

True maturity 
is the final page
fluttering like 
a frail heart
in its closing chapter.

All of its wisdom
destined to be
bound between 
tight covers of earth 
by the author 
and finisher
of our faith.

There are countless
acres of stories
shelved in neat rows
beneath granite markers
that note those who 
mastered maturity 
in chiseled footnotes.
Part IV
song lyrics
I remember 
secret messages
sent with eager fingers 
on the slipstreams of inkjets
blood coursing 
through our viens
to those most private places 
we had yet to explore. 

We were fresh 
like warm loaves
of hot bread steaming 
and begging for the silk 
of buttering each other up.

We bantied words about
our thoughts turning to
love and possibilties,
we wrote passioned poems
with fingers pressing buttons
not of the flesh kind
but fleshing out a
long distance intimacy 
between us.

You haunted my dreams
like the soft wisp 
of a kiss denied,
and I chased your promise
between lonely sheets.

I was the Gable floating 
high over your Tara,
coveting those
scarlet lips 
that were
far too soon 
gone with the wind.

Distance and time
eventually eroded
what we savored 
into just a passing fancy
now we are not in love
nor  at war
we simply
remain civil.

But I will always
cherish what we 
once thought we
might have had.
