It is too late now.
Gurgle, bubble, fizzle, brap!
Angry guts of mine.

halves halves and more halves
on halves, i've wasted paper
never feeling whole

she was cute i guess
A face like a china doll
far too innocent

the end was near

i would like to apologize for forgetting about this blog for a while.
i'm going to do my best to try and make it work like it once did.

on a couple of side notes, everyone should go to Sunny Outside Press and get Hosho McCreesh's new book of poems, "For All These Wretched, Beautiful, & Insignificant Things So Uselessly & Carelessly Destroyed..." because it's amazing and he has supported the 5/7/5 project, so it's only fair that he gets support from us.

and of course, if you haven't ever checked it out, head on over to the GPP and see what they're all about.

tell your friends.

think, type, submit.

5/7/5

to lie still, be silent

as the last light of
the afternoon stretches cat-
like across his face

she is feigning sleep--
like some demi-deity,
thinking: this is good.

friday nights

that euphoria
only lasts until the next
time your eyes open.

check

i wonder when the
day will come when i decide
to begin real life

so far this year nothing has been accomplished

instead of trying
to fix the things we've done, let's
just try something new

ski lift

He thinks of mentors
and the mentors will torment.
They are tormentors.

into obscurity

why i'll never be
a writer of poetry
or prose is easy

when it comes time to
save the thoughts in my head i
click "delete" instead.

realization:
i will never see the light
in this condition.

You and your blue eyes,
hiding away all your lies;
now I know better.

summer is over
so now the days just drag on,
on and on and on...

thousand year old distress signal

he was twenty year
old boy, who lived with girl in
small Mars colony.

she completed him,
once. Lost, High, alone, broadcast
from Mars Shuttle Five

Lighting cigarettes
as the last hover sailboat
made port and anchored.

sense of adventure
defeats standard high jinks of
counting revolutions.

what takes overboard?
watching the Suns rise and set
create and destroy.

passion sustains them
mid rage and then comity.
she sees right through him.

or, more precisely
the view from the Solitude
of her escape ship.

grasp this concept now:
wife gone, no why or how. he'd
go if she'd allow.

struggle to see what's
simple to me, don't you know?
"i can't let you go."

d u a l i t y killed
the man. "forget about her."
no one understands.

hints where she went?
declared, "See You Space Cowboy...
Spike for President."

before the rain comes

i tend to lie when
i say i'm okay, so you
should know cloudy days

are the worst, not because
of the grey, but because they
used to be yours, love.
