      Schreit in der Nacht, Singen

      Straßen, rote Bäche, weiß

      Gas sickert durch die Haut,

      Ihre Ohren explodieren mit flash-bang

      Einschläge hinter dem Zittern Kamera

      auf, wo er liegt, gefallen Marine, mit weit aufgerissenen Augen,betäubt,

      Schädel-split Opfer dieser amerikanische Nacht.

      Folgen Sie einfach ihr Geld

      zum Oberlauf der Gier

      und Sie werden sehen, wie sie vor Wut

      gegen Ihren Bedarf

      bis endlich

      es ist dein Blut

      sie wollen

      zu trinken.

      Wilma’s Welcome

      He sat the table, fresh kid,

      waiting for his dinner, 

      pushing back the war 

      now so far away.

      His big brother smiled

      glad to see him safe,

      when she walked in, 

      carrying a steaming plate

      of the best fried chicken

      either had ever seen.

      The aroma awoke in his memory

      soft Ohio nights,

      God's righteous thunder rumbling  

      gentle rains cooling the hot August sky, 

      when Mom carried in our dinner, 

      fried chicken and mashed potatoes, 

      safety and 

      love.

      And looking at his brother's new wife, 

      he smiled and at last said, 

      "welcome to the family!"

      Prayer for All Souls

      Fill me with your

      sacred fire.

      I long to rise from

      this moldering pyre,

      but I'm trapped

      under a dying sun.

      Your love

      is just beyond my reach,

      and sight fails

      as I falter,

      and back

      to basic earth

      fall.

      O, lift me

      with your mighty hand

      and once again

      I'll live.

      Storm on Hunter's Hill

      Pure line

      slopes skyward

      massive, dry,

      creased clusters

      cast-rock,

      hard shale,

      till crevasses,

      small streams, fill with rain,

      increase to flash-flood

      greedy hands

      grab pebbles, haul branches,

      crashing to the road

      below.

      The rain wants it all down,

      to sink it into the sea,

      level proud mountains,

      make all things

      equal,

      but the rising line flows

      to a distant ridge

      where dark oaks

      hold out

      for hard, blue 

      day.

      Advice for a Madman

      Look into the sun

      and you'll sear your brains.

      Deep truth burns,

      sets tender nerves aflame.

      Better to look

      at the dispossessed moon.

      with reflected lies

      she'll comfort you.

      Ratschläge für einen Madman

      Schauen Sie in die Sonne

      und du wirst sear Ihr Gehirn.

      Tiefe Wahrheit brennt,

      setzt zarten Nerven in Flammen.

      Besser aussehen

      an der enteigneten Mond.

      mit reflektiertem liegt

      sie wird dich trösten.

      Nocturne November

      breathe deeply

      the darkness,

      listen to the rain

      pounding drum-beat

      drops, see glass streaming,

      liquid streets glistening,

      imbibe the stink of mud,

      rot of moldering leaf,

      as life

      subsides.

      Nocturnes November

      atmen Sie tief durch

      die Dunkelheit,

      lauschen Sie den regen

      Schlagen Trommelschlag

      Tropfen, siehe Glas-Streaming,

      Flüssigkeit Straßen glitzern,

      trinken den Gestank von Schlamm,

      rot von modernden Blatt,

      wie das Leben

      nachlässt.

      Immanence
