(I don’t know it all)

 

Abandon myself

More Him less me, let it be

(I don’t know it all)

From the Muck

 

In memory of Lee Kuan Yew


From the muck, against

All odds, rose a splendid sheen, 

A southeastern star,

She set the bar for her kin

And close neighbors to exceed.

Horizontal Callie

 


I am vertical, 

my characters, 

horizontal.

Poets are 

horizontal and

God, vertical.

Callie lacks free will,

she’s of my mind.

But in my poem, 

her actions have 

consequences. 

My mind found 

free will,

my mind found 

Callie.

Actions with consequences,

there is nothing without God.

On Hiatus with a Praying Mantis

 

On hiatus with a praying mantis,

Lured by the Light, hands pressed in front of us,

A meal we seek: may mine be Glorified,

With snap and pop his falls electrified;

God’s creation, nothing superfluous.

Jefferson Port

 

Bygone,

Steamboat steam stacks

Tall topping old shore pines

Blowing through a chocolate bayou,

Bustling.
