Common sense abandoned Countless warnings issued (remember how the skies roared?) Proof of Heralds night and day, growing body count of sacrifice victims Obvious Frankensteinian experimentation The whole worlds sees. The whole worlds knows.

A moving picture postcard, animated scenery, and dramas taken from the pages of a scripted comedy. What is it you see? Just what you expect: Material from Vaudeville and conveniences that lack All purpose, life, and passion - Set designs so cold and wooden. Who is there behind it? Who has fed the Beast? Who… Continue reading “Free-will (and Other Lies)” – Poetry
The feast prepared, the silver laid. The fires of the shortest day. Porcelain. China. Crystal shines! The crescent moon to mark the time.

I arrived at a performance filled with laughter and joy A light-hearted comedy to shake off the dust of depression So many care-free moments filled with wide-eyed innocence. But then I briefly recalled my heart's passion That key to illusions past, present, and future And it raised the second curtain on the theater before me.… Continue reading “Dust Of Deception” – Poetry

In my day, there was no image No multi-colored hues, Yet we had the steady drum beat - We had the Joker, too. My mother's tears were wasted, Though I did it all for her - I sought to make my father proud. Oh, how the lies did burn! I never did remember The… Continue reading “Everybody Loves a Man In Uniform” – Poetry
