Moonlight in Vermont
One night the moon
full as a dollar
hung around all night
I swear one time
he was speaking to me
but it's possible
I didn't get that right
Then later on
I'm sure he winked at me
and was about ready
to spill a joke
but it might have been… Read full post »
Alternative
There is always some damn humming
No matter where I am
Haunting me, chasing me
Not liking it is nothing
Doesn’t even know me
But if it does the shit
Would hit the fan
Speculation is useless
Accept if… Read full post »
The Flood
I enjoy posting my new poetry work here. There's something about OS that calls out to me to do it. I was attemtpting to break through a block during this writing but now it seems like it might be applied to different situations in the Middle East.

New Poetry: 'Douglas Corner'
February already...
Here's the latest from my quite cool, cordless keyboard!
DOUGLAS CORNER
I want to go to Douglas Corner
In Nashville to see a show
But I doubt if I will go
It’d be cool to hear the guitars on the stage… Read full post »
Hunter for Something: A poem.
I had an inspiring weekend. NewYears resolutions to do, what else, write more. So far so good.
I read the booklet written by Johnny Depp and Douglas Brinkley included in the Gonzo CD of music from the film. All about Hunter S. Thompson.
Hunter for Something
Sparkle: A Poem.

Sparkle
Fascinated by the word sparkle
strikes me as almost
onomatopoeia
like clang, clang
but with a lot more class
Like Satine the Sparkling Diamond in
Moulin Rouge
Like the stars at night
sparkle like the
sun off the water
Rich, rich, rich
I could venture psychedelic
especiall… Read full post »
Christmas Cold
Gone Fishing
GONE FISHING
I was walking under the blue sky
When blues crept up on me
Like the suede on my shoes
I didn’t lose my baby
But I couldn’t find her either
She had ducked out for lunch
Or decided to… Read full post »
John Lennon
A few remembrances that remain in my head about John Lennon and the Beatles...
Like so many others my first exposure was in Feb. 1964 viewing the Ed Sullivan show. After it was over I went upstairs to the bathroom mirror and combed my hair down over my forehead. The… Read full post »
Three Poems From November
Hi. I've been away for a while but you know how it is. I have been writing just not always suitable for posting on the blog.
Anyway here are three brand new poems. Let's see what happens now...

In The Park
Writing
Author black tied
caught in a Red silhouette
Trampled by believers
signing his name on their sleeves
Running into the margins
headers and footers
cut loose
"Lead me into battle,"
he cried,
"Before I lose my teeth."
The snow fell in February
all the life
covered deep underneath

Excerpt: RAISING THE BAR
Hi. This is a small but informative, hopefully, excerpt from the first draft of my first novel. 'Raising the Bar.' It's about a transplanted couple that live and work in Manhattan. I deal a lot with backstory and this is a glimpse into the character Tom's life.… Read full post »
Washington Square Park
Washington Sq. 2009.
Sitting under a bright park light (I mean very bright) on a bench in a refurbished Washinton Square Park. It's not obviously a new look, especially at night, but the park was closed for several months as the renovations were taking place. There are… Read full post »

Where's My Car?
I'm craving a car. I was born and raised in a car culture but then once I discovered NYC I had to sell my car and have not had one since. Guess what? It's been a long time too. More years than I'm going to mention, so… Read full post »
Newt, Huckabee, Limbaugh
Red Beret (excerpt)
I couldn't get to sleep. What was that image in my head? I know what it was. It was a girl walking by me very quickly, I mean with a real purpose, and what kept flashing in my head was the red beret she was wearing. Not only did it stick… Read full post »
Dick
Something about that Cheney name...
Oh yeah. Fuck you Dick. Read full post »
Frustrating Week
It was going to be a great getaway weekend in Maine. Two shows for me to play and a whole bunch of new folk exposed to my performance and music. A road trip. A breath of fresh air away from the heady New York City air. More air in the… Read full post »
Something
I had to write something.
So here I am. Shooting up the clock at one thirty in the morning. Banging my head in the treetops, waving at the wind. I heard a tree fall in Brooklyn one afternoon and nobody else was there. Earlier the rain was splashing all over the… Read full post »
