Take a chance no one will think your not hip and cool if you watch a poetry film. It's not your third grade teachers longfellow dudes it's hard hitting short stories in effect . Much to be suprised by. Funny and moving a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I jhave been writing and performing in Prisons and kids at rick venues as well as highschools and cafes around the US. My work won a second place in the 1998 Allen Ginsberg PRize. Take a shot there will be no POETRY COOTIES I PROMISE!

MEASURING CUP
I considered that,
life is measured.
Like in a sweet recipe.
One teaspoon of cinnamon,
after another.
Not the rough bark to be rubbed
over a small toothed grader,
But more like the soft pungent powder.
In the smell I have seen and know,
from my travels
there are Grenadian women,
hunched over rolling wet bark into small cigars.
Their sweaty palms turning rusty red.
Hear them gossip on passion, or lack of it.
Soulfully singing songs from childhood.
Bountiful breasts

An interview with an old school Tattooer
Chunks of gold comprised his monogram ring. Dazzling gold surrounded his wrist in a pile of watchband and bracelets.

It s wonderfull to know unselfish people. I am so tired of phoney,spiritual types who are secretly bitter, fearful, unable to truly live their spiritual teachings in any other than LIP service. I am constantly pushing buttons of those types, hypocrites. All the, alters, bells and incense but no true center. Just their egos! Acting as though, they had control of the universe, could direct it for good or evil intent! Eventually leads to all sorts of tumor growth but never growth into their true pa

People do -- have lots of them.
Secret ones that destroy others

After the scatological shrapnel slices you apart
They line their hearts, as armor.
