    All I'm Asking

    Another spirt in a quagmire Selling off dignity just to get by Inflated egos that conspire Adding layers to a perpetual lie   Sycophants always fall in line Empty vessels lacking a spine   This world so full of sorrow Throwing obstacles in the way All I’m asking of...

      • I like how this feels angry and tenderly thought at the same time. I like that hopefulness in the dark

    • Damian the fire in the eyes of those zealous followers of the pied piper elevated to guru status is painted in your poem with fire and smoke. Truly a smoking great poem that is as strong emotionally as it is rhythmically. You have real talent my friend.

    The raven's hue

    Stress coiled around her eyes. When hope dissolvedbeyond light-years,she slid open her dresser drawer. Beneath sprawling pharmacy scriptsand towers of credit card bills,the black metal trigger pulsedraven-dark, alive. With a velocity that could split stars,and energy enoughto fracture galaxies,she became weightlessa wandering...

    jazz on a rainy day

    I sat at the café table by the window, rain tracing slow rivers down the glass. The city blurred gray beyond, tiny circles forming and vanishing in puddles that caught the soft glow of streetlights.   Jazz drifted from a small speaker, warm and intimate, and I...

    • My funny valentine is a beautiful song. It’s something that sticks in the mind. I like how you said that a painter may hear it. That could make is day go easier. Nice piece

    • I remember this one. It is so good. Top tier writing, really. It could be in any creative writing book out there. I think it’s my fav of yours, and perhaps your best. Excellent.

      • I wondered if I had posted this before. Thanks, Styx. This is the result of about 18 revisions. lol

    • hello dearest Tim you’re obciously of great taste…I feel your pangs on this rainy day painted so beautifully ❤️

    • Beautifully penned, Tim. Such an excellent write with amazing storytelling and precise imagery my friend. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • You spread imagery like a true artist in this one. A painter could never touch it. You took us there and settled us with that song in that café and created a moment forever breathing

    • Tim this is one of the most evocative and emotionally strong poems of have read on the Beat poet experience. I have read much Kerouac, Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, and many others and this poem takes me into the heart of their world but written in retrospective from a much later time. Truly this is a work of great poetic art that refreshed my spirit on how much I loved reading those writers from yesteryear.

      John

    • Really great work. The depersonalization of our world. Moving words.
      Regards
