By an Emerald Fire
From the Sacred Medicine Dens of Andromeda,
& Czechoslovakia,
To the Top Hatted Capitalist Regions
Of Afghan, & Pakistan,
To the White Waters of Atlantis,
In the Monet-ic Morning,
VAN GOGH-IAN GANGSTERS
Of 'The Starry Night',
AWOKE,
To See
A Universe of Ghost Shadows,
In a Cloud of Smoke,
Being Blown BY The
Beautiful,
Death Killing Beauties!
Chanting
The Lost Poems,
Of Every Known,
& Unknown Poet,

Stressed Men Prefer Curvy Women' Final Draft
Study! Revolt! Struggle, Success!
We Shed Our Ineffable Raiments of
tormented Flesh....
& Queen Street West Morphed into a Ballet
at Rush Hour as
Badly Aging Pop Stars
Declaring the ACTUAL Divinity
Of The 'Fair Limbed' Harpies
Genius Enough to
Dig Me, were
Being Haunted BY The In-
satiable Ghosts! of Groupies
Past.
During the Desperate, 'Retributive Hour',
In which I Magus'd Your
Sceptered Beast!

Ode to Hecate
In You My Millennia Long Search Has
Found it's Long Sought Conclusion-
It's 'Death or Glory' for Us, Hecate,
Carlo Gambino, or NOTHING,
For You & I,
You, & You alone Shine Brighter than if You
Were Born the Legitimate Daughter of
The Prince of the East-
You halt Me Snip of the Silver Cord
That Gratefully Imprisons Me-
You halted Me Snip of the Silver Cord
That Gratefully Gaoled Me in the Here, & Now!
'The Brightest Stars are Not Always in
The Mood to Sing', As You Know, 'I
Shall Speak as Liberal as The North'.
'Magick & Art have Strange linkages'.
My Friend Dante Krysto Sleeps Hanging

His

Car.
‘Twas Her Flaws that Cupid'd ME! !
& We didn't even know them.
YET.

A Free jazz poem for Joan Baez
It Feels as If I knew You
In a Past Life,
You Could have Been My Sister,
Enemy, Lover, MOTHER, Girlfriend,
Ruler or Wife!
All I know is That Your Definitely
A Kindred Spirit?
But I can't remember Us & Our Families
Dying From the Plague,
Us Being Crucified upon the Most
Crooked-est of Crosses,
Whoring Ourselves on the Cobblestone
Streets of Mala Strana, Prague,
I can't Remember 0,1,2,3,5,8,13 ~?
or 9,7,1,9,4,9,3 ~!
I don't Remember The LOVE &
Stimulating PAIN,
That We Experienced outside The
Dali Museum in Figueres, Spain!
Witnessing the Tomato & Bullfights

Ode to Liza Minnelli
I spray Paint Your Image on The
Graffiti Mural'd Walls
Between Dundas West & Keele
Subway Stations, As a
'Red Headed Beggar Girl'
Crawling Towards Me on Your Knees,
Against the Backdropp of The
Copper
Metal
Chasm?
With My Black Eye Liner I Draw You
As a Crude Stick Figure on The
Smudged Up Mirror, of a
Filthy Public Washroom,
I Finger Paint You as The
Forbidden Modern Primitive!
Wintering a Tropical Soundscape of My Heart,
I Scribble You In Gold & Silver & Violet Crayon
On a Pink Piece of Construction
Paper,
