Your Verse

A day that you seize 
It goes endlessly 
The show does not cease
It's on constantly
Long after you leave
Things grow from your seed
In life's poetry
What will your verse be?

By Heart

Got my Gwen Stefani bindi 
Walking in the sun like Cyndi
Out in space with Mork & Mindy
Inbetween like darling Wendy
In my garden, eat me/drink me
Lost at sea, in stars, completely 
Call on me by heart if need be
I'll be in my lamp with Genie

Make Up

Against my self and soul - a crime
Of wasting talents of my mind
Avoiding truth, denying sign
Restricting signals from divine
My health in shambles and decline
From years in fear and on sidelines
For this I pay a fee and fine
I think exclusively in rhyme
Compelled to spell where I'm behind
To make up for this missing time 
My wish, just this: through it to find
My counterpart and kindred kind

Collective Conscious

This art that you appreciate
These artists you so celebrate
You sing along, pontificate
Lay back and watch what others make
Get drunk, and high, and medicate
Quote Kerouac and Willy Shakes
Write papers on how they're so great
Then mock me, send me side-eye hate
For veering off your boilerplate
Hello McFly, I can't relate
And I will give it to you straight
You ever stop to think - hey wait
Perhaps I can participate 
How do they come up with, create?
These gifts and talents you equate
With high IQ's and genius traits
The point where they originate
It's a collective conscious state
Expression is unique, innate
But we all have this access, mate
Turn on, tune in, for goodness sake

Caretake

Unlock my heart-shaped garden gate
Collapse in coral bells and wait 
Into my tuberose escape
To heaven-scented sugarscapes
In this my mystic meadow place
I've made no messes nor mistakes
I've caused no harm or hearts to break
I'm given penance, pardon, grace
A smile is spreading 'cross my face
For when the winds stir me awake
I'm free as flowers as I caretake

Matching Moons

My grandma Peggy
Born 1920
A Virgo like me
And matching moonsies
A Scot overseas
With hair like Lucy
To Texas, to see
What else there might be
Back in the forties
(I mean the nineteens)
A cowgirl from green
John Wayne with Maureen 
You find what you need?
I'll keep on looking

Bobby

Bobby the Iranian
Thought I was a lesbian
'Cause I wouldn't sleep with him
Stayed at home with pad & pen
Engineer and atheist 
Said I was the craziest
American that he'd witnessed
Analyst and anarchist 
True, I wasn't made for it
Up and left that damn office
Sealed with my ass to kiss
Like him, I go where I wish

Mr. Lotta

Chris's Father - Charles Lotta
Taught of Dot and bush koalas
Kangaroo and duckbill plata
Fairy bread and egg pavlova
Played us didge and said we gotta
Be authentic, always oughta
Spoke of music's healing powers
Poems and prose and pretty flowers
Asked of us we honor ours
And I do all day, each hour

IOU

An IOU
Oh yes, you do!
A raincheck too
And I cash you

Kin

Neptunian, Shakespearean 
We've met inside our skies again
Musician and an alien
Astrologess and magician
Through sign and rhyme and time we bend
By birds and butterflies we send
On dragonflies and hyacinths
Near friends who feel we play pretend 
That we belong in looney bins
No matter, pay no mind to them
This is the way we find our kin

Money Tree

Currency is energy
Value I do or don't see
Based on how abundantly 
I do view myself to be 
Blue as bells and Baltic Sea
Rich with gold intrinsically 
With or independently 
Treasure Island instantly 
I am my own money tree
Rainbow's end is inside me

Tornado Jo

Tornado Jo
An Aries, so
Upright, on fire, and onward ho
A yogi though
She'll Bend Down Low
At ease, with peace, in grace she goes
A chick in know
A witch with flow
Her moon of mist and melting snow
A burlesque show
She'll fight you, bro
Like me, she's free and with crossbow

My Back

It's funny you should mention that
That all we have is now, in fact
'Cause I just chose to interact
To switch trajectories and tracks
To edit defecits and lack
Call all my light and power back
Respond from love and not react
To fear and fragmenting and crap
Remember all I am and act
Accordingly and pronto, stat!
The universe does have my back

Her Bath

Do we think that Kristen Pfaff
That she just died in her bath
Do we really think that that's 
Not insulting, weird, or wack?
What if Whitney was on crack?
Mushrooms, catnip, caffeine, smack
No one drowns like that, asshat
Not her daughter either, ack

In Space

You'd like to put me in my place
To segregate by class and race
To chaos cause with horror and hate
To shoot me up and mask my face
Do you know who I am in space?
I'd lay your lizard ass to waste
Care neither for your church nor state
Your taxes, banks, and mortgage rates
Come at me with your tanks, your mace
I straight up shall evaporate 

That's Sweet

The same frequency 
Like two pretty leaves
From two different trees
I can't make you me
But why would you be?
Exist separately 
Yet similarly 
I think that that's sweet

Fantasia

Unbothered by your Earth 3D
Despair and negativity
Nor shadows in my mirror I see
I'm warrior, empress, child: all three
You don't believe it? Come for me
Fantasia has no boundaries

Angel's Apprentice

Blue eyed and blonde fish
Angel's apprentice
Betrayed by a kin snitch
Geffen and grunge shit
Candle and cake wish
Burn out and blow this 
Left us a space witch
She's got your heart, kid

Intuitive Astrology

Intuitive astrology
Your soul inside the stars I see 
Allow an alien like me... 
To read you via poetry 
The planets transit beautifully 
Around you in your galaxy 
Lets do a dance of energy  -
Fill out my form posthastily

Alphabet Eve

Spaghettio sea
Like Chef Boyardee
Been you before she
But not after C
This alphabet eve
I swim and I see
ABC through Z
I move them and wee!
It spells U + me

Northern Nest

Misused, abused, confused, repressed
Turned over-sexed and under-dressed
Corrupted and it's been complex
Obscured in swords and cryptic text
Methodically is moving west
Across the sky as sun that sets
A lifelong lasting lunar trek
Into her moon and northern nest
And only then begins to rest

The Electricity

Pardon, All Apologies
Mars is making war with me
And he is Uranusy
Never one for nuance-y
What with all this Pluto, we
Blew the electricity
Siento mucho and scusi
I work in the dark, you see
