I strum my grief

& pluck one-liners

~riffing beats~

as I define

/ a life in leaf /

my story time…

in bits-so-sweet

until decline–

there never was a prelude finer–

worth a sonnet

and a shiner.

Through a reed &

with some weed

I blow my smoke

in piping…

oboes, flutes,

kazoos that toot

to mellow

bellowed griping…

My odes

unload!

My poems

come home!

My villanelles unveiling–

in measured chord

dynamic score

of trial’ing & tre’vailing…

For mortal wounds

the gizmo used

is full on Philharmonic,

no poem

but tome

–a fiction long–

subverts

the hurt to tonic…

As lullabye

may I imply

to me all words

are music

witty, ditty

>even shitty<

can sound pretty

when I choose it.

I play the keys

you know,

I caress them,

polishing characters to & from my QWERTY,

(offset by one key always, but I have an ear)

arms rising & diving quite dramatically
 
 
 
Dah–nah–nah–NAHHH!!!

I orchestrate sentences

arrange notes

& sample sounds–

plunk

plunk

plink

snapping fingers beatnik style between composures..

wink-wink-wink

composures

to remix,

harmonize & synthesize

the ize within.
 
 
Chewing long-handled pens

I wear black pajamas

(dba sweatpants)

and plenty of extra pencils in my do too, I forget they are there

weaving braids, harum-scarum style, on my days off…

fingers fall in agreeable waterfall

sometimes unison

> a Chord <

sometimes singular

> a Big note<

each digit

respecting the path of the digit before.
