I'de like to be able to call myself an intellectual, or avant-garde, or rebel, or whatever, but I do not condone arrogance.
Some of my poetry is junky, some of it is alrite.  You get to determine which is which.  Some of my poetry is from early on, and I am not too proud of it, but some I am proud of.




Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground Control to Major Tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God's love be with you


This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

   "This is Major Tom to Ground Control
    I'm stepping through the door
    And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
    And the stars look very different today

    For here
    Am I sitting in a tin can
    Far above the world
    Planet Earth is blue
    And there's nothing I can do

    Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles
    I'm feeling very still
    And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
    Tell my wife I love her very much she knows"

Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you....

   "Here am I floating round my tin can
    Far above the Moon
    Planet Earth is blue
    And there's nothing I can do."

  • Kevin came rollicking in, hair matted to the left side of his fleshy squash head, skull cap crumpled in his ham-hock hands, billowing about the factory entrance, like some Thanksgiving Day parade balloon. He was a man incapable of whispering. “Ya’ see Donald? He caught his dick-beatas! Right in the machine!
