Amenities for the Eumenides ~ Saturday, November 8, 2025

They knew what they signed up for, then again
how could they know, how could anyone know
exactly what they had coming in store

Detachment: The Devil Detail, but when
exactly they understood what it meant
viewed by their superiors, as to show
intelligence in the field, what was more
levelheaded, carpentry, or to fight

Detachment Alpha until all are spent
exact revenge on long lost enemies
touching displays as everyone must die
amenities for the Eumenides
in death, men become boys if they should cry
levelheaded carpentry as to cite

butteryslick slippery arguments
until military history talks
rifles in hand, boots on the ground, detail
negative zero plus was pure nonsense
setbacks took place, commonsense with no trace

arrived too late, never on time, brass chalks
timeliness up to trains, their brains for sale

at auction blocks around the world, no need
to draw attention to clueless good grace
tents of Eagle Scouts emulate the games
exactly without loss, too young to die
null set positive infinity shames
troops to divide by zero, as they try
ignorance blithely disregards the feed
of information, The Devil Detail
noted, at dusk, red skies, sailors set sail

Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge ~ Friday, May 30, 2025

Professor Miłosz answered my question reserved with but one word, 'Daimonion' obligations to respond to students forgave him for reflux indigestion ever more witty than a Cheshire cat such a response like peeling an onion strange to hear what inspires a profound sense of history and philosophy, deep rivers flow to offer one time at bat Moments come and evaporate, to seize in my youth the mystery of being łodzianin , The Promised Land , a breeze of less than fresh air blows mortals fleeing socialism into the deepest sleep ziemia obiecana , what does this mean answers in his History unfold time nothing escapes Polish Literature save for the Catastrophe , the unseen wisdom, impossible to grasp, then guides experience through right and wrong, as crime removes the stain of corruption, unsure existentialists adopt Marxism despite the deep divide taking both sides music to post-Stalinist ears, the Thaw yet, thirty-five years later, with the Fall questions of ...

Poor Axle Hole ~ Monday, June 30, 2025

Allegedly, we are all, already lighter than air, in the atmosphere, float lifted on buoyant bubbles of root beer enlightenment a dream, are you ready get out your magic carpet for a ride ending the reign of saṃsāra , the boat decides all fate, all connections, no fear life goes on for billions of years, the sun yes, will become a red giant, such pride wet behind the ears, no tears, we were cool every summer at the beach, on our bikes all day long, no worries, play pocket pool ride our beach cruisers back home, no one likes empty pockets, no cash, no change, no fun are you ready for mokṣa , for release leave it all behind, nirvāṇa , let go let Baruch HaShem , blessed be the name answer all the questions, for I seek peace liberation, salvation, suffering ripens into soft pears, this much I know everyday, a blessing, I feel no shame alive and well, a miracle, I bring desire to an end, if I borrow your ears to hear, duḥkha ends with sorrow
