Reverie
by Anthony Eusanio


Alone, and all will enter
this winter catheter
very handsome this
dense disaster

thy boon is mostly memory
free with the moon
to live in reverie

I find a such
a Such as not
it comes and goes
without a thought

the legions of deadfalls
amongst evergreens
are those I cling to
thus my song screams

Deep-like sunlight
swaying by my stand
suddenly by Midnight
comes a broken hand

A silvery stag
no hunter can touch
but fragmented dreams
can hurt so much

we'll kiss and dance
under a little tree
whose safe,tight bark
bleeds reverie

This Spring
Black flowers
don't concern me

Rocknrolla
by MrDaMan
Virgil R. Hall II (Randy)

She’s got devils wings
and an angels horns
A look in her eye
that God has scorned.

Her halo a snare that
seduces desires
gut hooks the soul
and sets it to fire.

Like the devils driving beat
of a demons conun…drum.
On a one way mission
Ya gotta get some!

She drives my nascent evil
with every heavens grind.

And I run
every red sign
in my blinking mind

I’m not lost…

I just don’t
want to be
found.

I’m a stray dog
looking for
flesh to pound

Padding the street
with every beat
until they bury me
in the ground

The Lion

Inside my soul screams
pacing like a lion in a cage
trapped in this skin
trapped on this rock
going nowhere
one endless circle
for all eternity.

I've seen what happens to dogs
digging under fences
escaping the comfort of warm hands
looking for greener grass
petrified on highways
wishing they were back home.

Back and forth
I hunger for the pharaohs red flesh
christian appetizers
the sweet air of freedom
beyond my prison
horizons I'll never reach.

Dreams of heaven
lost in their evil smiles
my claws now manicured
by their lies
my roar silenced
by their disease.

My heart
marinated in their poison
still beats strong
if only I knew
the secrets of alchemist ghosts
I would tear a hole in their universe.

If only I could stop this anger...
the bars would disappear
and the true light
would absorb their power
making me king again.

Home of the Grave


Let us not play with castrated politicians
Rather
Let them hang up to dry,
Along with their ambitious intentions to destroy mankind!
We can’t clean the air ,
while their polluting stench recklessness stares.
Where’s the love?
You have no money,
No power
No say
Nothing good to come of this!
Nothing comes to anyone if were all dead,
The air we can no longer breathe
Dig your own hole, land of the free home of the grave
Swallow your transport oil, show passport to get on my own soil
Rain rancid acid,
Splash of U.V. sunshine I’m wasted thirsty
Let us melt together
How sad it is
Don’t sing to me!
I don’t want to hear your tragic dope song.
Change or hope is long gone,
For you and me bitching doesn’t solve anything!
I don’t care as long as I have my weed.
Stupid fuck!
How you going to smoke your shit, if you can’t breathe?
Enjoy the world while you can
We are Armageddon
We are here!
Don’t ask to be saved, when you can save yourselves.
Do or be undone!

Pacifists Bullet
by MrDaMan
Virgil R. Hall II (Randy)

There is something
about peace and love
that isn’t quite universal.

There’s too much envy,
greed and intolerance.

Nature’s
heavy handed
tough love
constantly culling the
herd of the weak
with the ravages
of savage humanity.

Blame the finger of God
or the reason of mankind’s
collectivist insanity,
blame the acceptance
of hatred,
racism
or a heightened sense
of tribal vanity.

Even blame itself
can be blamed
as a man
chasing his tale.

This is a rock
and a hard place
in a pillow fight
of souls,
deadly as time
is to mortality,
forgiving only
momentarily,
as the stones
are squeezed
for every ounce
of blood.

This is the justice
of chaos,
judge of life
and jury of peers.

Free will
is a gun
full auto trigger
on choice.

If it wasn’t
for peace
and love,
none of this
would be
worthwhile,
worth living,
worth desire…

Worth the fire…
in a pacifists bullet.

Confessions of a Yogi

My stance is wide,
feet anchored
with all four sides.
I establish my foundation
with careful regard
to the distribution of weight.
I find my center,
pelvis tucked under,
so as not to spill
it's precious contents.
I support my arms
with inner strength,
relax my shoulders
and radiate.
I am balanced
with an easy view,
hovering in the distance.
My neck is free
as the roof of my skull
reaches
with optimism
towards the sky,
and I wonder why
my legs are trembling.
I should be stronger.
I should have more control than this.
My shoulders are heavy
and begin to droop
like wilted leaves,
thirsty for water.
Dejected by
this quick decay,
my mind begins to wander.
I am so owned
by this flimsy shell
I call my home,
dictating the limits
to my endurance.
I am weak in this
fleshy coat.
Why am I here?
What is the point?
Where am I going
to run to?
I want to break down.
I want to breathe.
I'm not breathing.
My blood is empty.
All courage drained,
all my windows are
smashed
in this domestic struggle.
The interior exposed to an
unforgiving landscape,
where judgment reigns
and guilt is abundance.
So I fill my cup
with oxygen
and raise my fist
to the gods of war
and I drink from this
iron goblet.
I am fierce.
I am tired.
I am warrior.

Epona's Wild Daughter

Season me
with all the spice your soul
can spare.
Believe in me.
Let your guard down
and surrender
to love.

To all the things
that hold you back
from breathing.
Even if
you can't see them,
just sing them.

The sun can't find
the moon can't find
us where we're hiding.
The sun can't find
the moon can't find
us where we're hiding.

She offers us
her guiding hand with grace
and we embrace her will.
Let our guard down
and surrender
to her plan.

To her plan...
follow the rhythm
Every grain of sand...
Follows the rhythm
and if you trust your intuition
and follow the rhythm
Love and life will flow
through the mouth of the river
and EXPLODE....

Releasing the past
that's holding us fast
in it's grasp.
The intricate patterns
are weaving a new song
and we ride it along
and along
and along.

A Backwards Life, Lived Horizontally

edging

his
empire stretched
these precincts
his feelings
centered in himself
but extended
to shadow territories
itchy ghost fingers, twitching
uncertainly, existing simultaneously
in relative dimensions
(trust me in this)

he saw:

(1) polyester and nylon
(2) sovereigns in the dying world
(3) true gold

he lay exposed on the naked mountain
nourishing our shaven imagination
enabling sordid truth
to escape beneath
the surface of a diminishing
sine wave

but
you should not
creep blindly away
no, no
you should
shake those mean
language sluts
whose cloak becomes
complacency

(4) dishonesty doppelgangers

all
syntax blowback
bombing with
metaphorical allusion
three million starving
and so much adjective soup

they
are sad tacos, my people:
gods jackoff
to humanity’s pornography
& for the want of a
meaningful relationship
these days
souls are havested
in stunning heists
masked divinities
throwing barstools
in
the last chance
saloon
(a downside of happy hour)

so then
do we not
digest thoroughly
our horizontal experience?

eating we are
extracting the juice
of the marrow
i am the slimy crow
blackhearted
you are the plunger
undeterred
he is the toothy inmate
describing
in languid squirts
the algebra of
these starving lives

i
remain aloof
to your slanders
i
have already
bitten the hand
that feeds me

scarred


I was eight years old
when my shield broke.
When the bleak realization
of cause and effect
seeped in through
iodined skin,
and the mirror
showed me my
ruined reflection.

The days preceding
were glorious;
Christmas with Nonna,
the secret piercing of ears,
cabbage patch kid,
and curlers in my hair.
I loved everywhere,
everything,
everyone.

I was fast.
Strong little legs
that carried me quickly
over clay banks,
as the sharp blades of
grass
whipped against my shins,
smearing ink like strips,
cacti jumping at my ankles.
Rarely would I walk,
I would skip for miles,
roller skate till my feet
were numb,
as the winterized roads
rattled my spine.
I was stronger than the boys.
I was soft as a cloud,
and harder than stone,
but I was far too fast
that day.

I scanned my surroundings
and climbed off my chair,
making my way
through the maze of adults,
through the legs of the table,
elbows and knees,
cutlery clinking against the china,
just to say hello
to my new little friend.

She was sleeping
that's OK.
I offered her my hand
as a gesture of peace.
She had one eye open.
Time was suspended.
A snarled twitch of the
upper lip,
and fear seared my veins;
a hot rush of fight or flight.
I flinched in response.
The cruel attack of
swords forged in bone.
I felt her sharp teeth
puncture my skin,
raking my gums
like a pile of leaves.
Her lower jaw,
deep into my neck,
attached face to face,
I could not move.
I was paralyzed.
I vaguely remember
a guttural noise escaping
my throat,
and petting her head
to comfort her.
She didn't mean it.
She shook,
and I shook,
and we remained this way;
tears mixed with blood
streaming down our face.
There was nothing I could do.

My mother screamed.
A scream that rang in my heart
like a recess bell,
releasing me from the tedium
of this struggle.
I collapsed in my fathers arms
as he scooped me up.
The red stain spreading
against his crisp wh

Ravaged

Dirty sheets
and dirty hair.
I am wore-torn,
threadbare.
Tear me apart,
like a mother
shreds
linen rags
on a
Saturday.
It's almost noon
and I cannot move.
I cannot do.
Procrastinate.
Errands line up
before me
like sitting ducks
in a carnival game.
I take my aim
but I cannot win.
This game is rigged.

Three poems in three days, this is the last one , my friend:
Silence.
I sit here on this dusty winter's day in summer
as I search and wonder.
I look for other possibilities,
other possibilities that may slide beneath the true measure of cruel reason.
This day hangs in the wind and so the known transforms into the unknown;
how easy is it to see only what you want in this shady dance of chance.
We are shadows cast on a window blind, in this mad dance
with the light always behind;
like dried leaves circling on the wind, we are caught in a bind.

Searching the halls of memory. I seek to question beginnings and endings,
only to find I am not one but many.
The self is just a show, another flickering shadow play;
a fool's parade, a clock work dash.
I can not find anywhere else to go, anywhere else to call home.

Reflections of reflections, we are only shadows;
Shadows cast by the light that blinds us so.

We are limited creatures that cannot bear to look at the sun,
for it blinds us so, and so we run.
We cannot see what we do not want to know.

In this show, a masquerade, a play,
only each experienced moment,
though it slips away fro us,
can light the way,
for it leaves us no time to question what might have been,
but leaves us with only what as been;
comfort is only found in hindsight.

I cry out to a distant heaven but the stars cannot hear me.

My poised heart hungers;
such vague longings lead me to seek for intangible resolutions
that can move through this experience of succession;
a nothingness emptied into the darkness,
I am left alone, as I search for another pattern to hold reason and passion in tension.

I struggle with contractions that can never find resolution,
and so I dance, another shadow;
a clock work puppet I hunger and thirst,
another day has been blown away, another night still to come;
I sit here and dance, play and wonder of other things,
another time, another place,
another shadow b

(More Traffic)
Surprises and ambiguity are my good friends
Surprises are inviting; knowing is sound, secure
But it would end the writing
I like to know the vehicle but not the path it travels
Me, a video camera, and the mystery unravels
I think I will die young and away from home.
