Him

Chocolate muddy pools
Of universe ending and
Expanding-inward rolls.
And waves and symphonies
Heard long ago
Much farther from here
Than can be intimated.

He began in those
Eyes and grew from
There into vexing
Superfluidity and
Silent understated
Passionate visions that
Overwhelm even the
stars that yearn to
sparkle so.

Those dancing, darting,
Mysterious eyes control
With ticks and winks
And beguiling timidity
The black, hardened soul
And puckish sprite alike.

Pupils unite and fuse
alpha and omega
into a circular looping,
spiral-downward, inward,
upward even.
Fuse the unfused and
Confused and infused…
Relentless ends together:
Chocolate.

In the Kitchen

Bring me a grapefruit,
A rubber ball,
And a jar of tasty
Elmer’s paste.
I have the tools to
Make your dreams come
True.

Give thanks for fate.
Give thanks for your future.
Give thanks for this
Moment, and
Pray
That this never ends
Again.

Spilt-um- milk

Lifelong day concluding,
The re-rising sun marks its death.
Two hundred forty years in the
Blink of some cosmic eye.
When hearts fuse and minds fuse
And bodies fuse-
Infuse, confuse:
Conflagrate.

Lifelong day concluding,
Reality interrupted by the
Sun’s intensity,
Melting, molten plasma,
Nucleic bonding.

Sixty four chromosomes and
Sixty four chromosomes spilled
And one hundred twenty eight
Chromosomes lie together baking-
From the creamy puddle-in the
Intensity of the sun and dry
Up.
Close, but no life:
No death either.
