Close one eye, 
My items inside it,
Twinking idyllic,
Twinkling Poseidon,
Tell me but lies.

Who is the best, 
At mules and tribes?
Niceness undisguised,
Design precise,
Thrice but one,
Skies full of eyes,
Sum kind like,
Would it not be wise,
Revives, spells and cries,
Men, mice and crimes,
Pond scum alike,
Who is this beggar then?
Deckard Cain, who else?

Sidewalks broken on my boulevard,
Auburn hair where I used to walk,
Talk, and think of her dialogue.
I'd thought greenery would fall,
Replaced with concrete barriers,
Perhaps I'd talked too freely,
Told one too many tale too tall
To still be taken seriously.
Discreet forever, words picky,
Discrete for ever, world sticky,
Disformity for even worms licking.
Take me away from this place,
For even screaming and kicking,
Seeing worse, feeling indignant.
Not to curse the growing infant,
But the plants must go.
No handlebars rusted,
To bikes comprised of broken dreams,
No van full of children hopeful,
Just a van to the hospital, please,
My heart is about to explode to pieces.

Could I just wish? To be,
Mired forever in my thought,
Cubs would fish it seems;
Would one list, to be not?
On the fixtures glass,
Alike one's heart, an ass.
Like a bandage wonderful,
Placed over a chest, 
Healing hearts impass,
Task feeling, impossibly vast.
Please come back,
Please come back.
For all I want,
Is what lover's lack.

Could I just wish? I could,
Fish of this river forever,
Desiring one lost, to be not.
Would she list her lover first?
I would think so, deserved
For I have been gone,
A decade and more, lustrum.

My life a water, cold,
Too cool to be absorbed;
Endeavours foolish.

They ask for more free verse,
Ironically I ask for freedom.

Turn yourself, the sun faces west,
Learn your self looking into distance,
A poem of story, rhetoric important.
He just tells of lions and beasts,
Ire and deceit, lies succinct,
Are my poems of heart not complete,
Even if truth is too foolish to be?

Future hard to see, a pence to me, 
Fences mended where darkness meet,
A dense man where the larkin leap,
Without them where would we be?
A garbage heap, a fence two feet,
A garbage pile, a fence of three,
A garbage life, spend barking of time,
Not mine but others, I covet.
My duvet stained with oil, lovely,
When was it worth more, white forlorn
Or in a pile on the floor disgusting?

A Barrie kid grows,
A ferry, stone's throw,
Parry sound, Toronto,
Pound it out, big smoke.

This season I'll move downtown,
City planners dictate high spots,
How? Do they sell drugs now?
They only make dumps, dry drops,
Build highways on your houses,
Hope the best for us.

Eyes water, why bother?
Save yourself a level of honor,
Tomorrow it will be your brother.

Open prose with my dignity,
I am simple, Iambs, imagery,
Trying to oven toast,
With my sympathy lost.

I hope for you another loss,
Scotch socials, often postures,
Costumes oft. 
Walls filled with posters,
To wish you, where I was,
As if my feelings forgotten.

Open hose of complacency,
Teach me your giving ways,
Leach lead onto my face,
My children's faces,
My foodstuff casings.
Tell me of today:
"I Take not, responsibility.
Taste, not digestibility, 
My style succinct,
My rubber hole,
Leaves rubber taste."

I write without notes,
No goblins, or hope,
Aftermath nonsense. So?

I write long-form cribs,
Despite shotguns, dibs,
Despite skunks glibs:
Seven, Eight. 
Eight, Nine.
Just in time, coughing:
"Forgive my hands,
I am pandering, but
All I wish is to climb,
My trip divine,
My lips atwine, 
Would you be so suited,
Had I not arrived?"

In the middle, my tie mismatches,
Patchwork outfits, simple acids.
Dissolve an owners possessions,
Would ten not ask, where are my people,
Clothes and houses?
I would think at last, and note it,
Seven ate nine hungry and homeless,
To not play such a hand, preposterous.
By standards awful and longing,
With numbers staging off-brands.

Walk ambles beyond,
Talk stumbles upon,
To write another poem,
Ideas like a fawn.
Appealing siren song,
My pen misguided,
My Ken to Barbie,
A life, component plastic,
Abdomen firm, mind naught,
Opponent, you cage her, 
For I cannot.

Wheels but partition,
A PALS secrets, 
Foreseen at distance,
No team so clean,
A fallacy hideous.

She spins the wheel, deals,
A vowel to vie, consonant,
She speaks volumes, columns,
A fool to buy love constant,
For I is one you cannot buy,
She screams from the distance.

Lately, I write universal,
Rody Walker disapproves:
"I see through you,
Ethereal, feigning too close,
To touch a virtue.
Oh, feeling, careening mostly,
Posts passing, tongue lashings,
More dashing, floor, gas pedal,
More dashing, more dashing,
One says, like a clause."

Platinum ring, yet,
Heart diamond, set.
What's happening, please,
Forget my misdeeds, luck,
A hat in a ring, belts,
One generation fights back,
Another fights against.

Poetry succinct, mispelled,
Written on cocktail napkins,
Waitress dismayed and going,
Thrown to a well indistinct,
Dreams worth more than coins,
More than love or poinsettias,
Less two roses that grow together.

At least,
If I throw my feelings,
Into the well they drink,
One day they will think of me.
Although,
If I know I'm leaving,
Into the well I go, no warning,
or unthinking. 
Tomorrow,
If I am untoward,
Bloated upon our meeting,
Give me shelter from the storm.
Or at least a greeting.

Let's get lit
Have you ever felt a time so lit,
Like this.
Blessed, dressed,
Comfy sweaters,
It's Christmas.
Have you ever felt a time so lit.

I guess, I'm dressed in it,
I'll spend the whole day with my friends,
Chilling.
Mingling, God Willing, Song Singing,
Painting pictures of my brothers swinging,
I guess, I'm blessed because,
I can feel it's Christmas.

We get presents (ooh)
We get Phillips Hues.
Everything you wanted all year,
I've got just for you.

Let's get lit
Have you ever felt a time so lit,
Like this.
Blessed, dressed,
Comfy sweaters,
It's Christmas.
Have you ever felt a time so lit.

Wisdom, do anything for love,
One cannot administer feeling,
Smoking trees and tending buds;
Ashore a flood, Amore my love,
Shores complain not of fumbles,
Nor bees of bumbles.
Horse contained not by hurdles,
Nor flees or humbled.
No fleas or bugs, or jungles.
A girl, reserved forever, supple,
Personal, plain, non functional,
Is she a butt joke, or punchline?

Regret, or spend time a spindle,
Two too many, to twine a stick,
Rope simply frayed on four ends.
Portend of trouble, 
Poor tend to nothings,
Their lovers forever troubling,
Who casts shadow twice a valley,
Humble?

Railing, mirth like nail files,
Failure at the last mile, paling,
Valencia mailing, orange letters:
"Hello, my love endearing,
Are you not hearing my words,
Cello, or Othello reading."

Orator deceiving, apportioned more,
For boys, they are but fleeting,
Foreign peering at another girl.

Teenage to be, card or palm reading,
Do my feelings mean nothing more?
A chore on your list of meetings,
Suit, Tie and your railing grasped tightly.
I might be a fool for lies and deceit,
Ununique like an onion, carrot or leek:
"Choose me please, you need to eat.
Color me pink or beat me anew, kneed,
Until I am bread, so says the meat."

Your railing a crutch, always needed,
Like carrot bread has disgusting features,
You have disingenuous dealings with realism.

My heart filled with love,
Only my paintbrush coveted.
Simply a coward with canvas,
To give forms anew, forever,
Formula new, for you toward,
Perhaps to give in retort.
To highlight, grey,
Brush dusty and disdain,
My desires of microphones,
Speakers though, just saying.

Reading of lives I enjoy deceit,
My letter bold, italic and neat:
"Please hear me, Greek, leek,
I sometimes write nonsense,
Lest hope you would hear it."

Leading my lines,
Foreseeing poetically,
Receiving a liar guilty.
He says:
"For stanzas today, teacher,
I stand like bread features,
My brother filet beside me."
For once he doesn't lie,
Looks for the sky, sees ceiling.
Nothing aground marks his feeling,

Seeing the concrete,
He remarks of life:
"To tryst so wildly, again,
Would Vivaldi paint so vividly?
Probably, and with champagne,
because his name has dignity."
So seeing his window,
He thinks of rain.

Bartlett pears, dare i say, or shout,
Without is life austere, my world grey.
Some juicy poetry I heard today:
"With my hands so sticky,
A world become so tricky,
So quickly the armoire useless,
Of rickety fences, my house is."
I spoke it, To save face,
Bartlett pears are on their way.

The valley is my grave
For I sit within the mouths of caves
I shall not move for days
Nor weeks nor years
For even if I'm paid in flies 
My destiny, Tyler, I won't deny
For one day when I die
My body will atone
For I could eat a stone twice my size
My destiny, Tyler, I won't deny
My afterlife, a Bulwark Frog
Lo, to be a tadpole of one's own life
For now, I just write songs
Fantasies to make my family fear the valley's size
Then bulwark on
