Just like when I pee
amid splendour. A latrine
seething through nettles.

[Stolen from the English poet, Geoffrey Hill.]
Tho' all the maps of blood and flesh
Are posted on the door,
There's no one who has told us yet
What Boogie Street is for.

sting nowhere is found
the burden no longer mine
I watch as you fall
The Tank is gone and now so am I.

With the green instead
Of the yellow or red light
You need not stop here
Love prevails.

Change is not a process for the impatient.

A government which robs Peter to pay Paul, can always count on the support of Paul.

September sunsets
Perfect; neither summer's heat
Nor winter's sharp chill

A proper haiku
Did you think I could only
Do them in wordplay?
Yes, I am an alt
Whose? An open secret to
