cufflinks (1994)

teeming depths of diamondhead,
brawling surf playfully
preaching bucks,
hi-rise dreams
schmooze,
shuffle
of room service drones

miniseries (1994)

nightclouds flatten down
on millioned paws to trudge honestly
over oceanmist they pause not
before pearl city attempts at mass
architecture like magnets meeting
in blind date repulsed and curious
in an old tango
adorned in banjo conversations
comments on return of great whites
feasting on the recreation sloths
skinny japanese hardly crunch
so texans loan the lard, loan shark
lard rangers

siren song duh (1994)

nowdays prometheus cleptos
zippos @ cocktail whingdings,
elegant venus steps naked
out of virtual reality beerfoam
to impassion the dullard epic,
hercules cleans not the stable
rather scours congress
to emblazon history with parsley myth,
odysseus don't poke
out ogre eye, rather flips on donahue
to equal access the siren
song duh

time harvest (1994)

token planet ruler spermbanks
collapse, discredited
of potential, 
disinfected by Time,
us folks dumber'n dirt
& less useful than a sandbag
as oceans rise to gobble
costal infections, earth's
tension dissolves
mortal pretensions

Maui, Hi

1994

prehistoric rhetoric

styrofoam still the style
for kona organic brews in tourist kidneys
whose wallets one harvests
to convert credit's waterfront
condo overlooking petroleum
fields as they ripen
to mature as chlo·ro·fluor·o·car·bon 
feetprints in the espresso steam
running their diesel powered zits
doubleparked by old growth stands
of integrity so dirty
from legislation handling it waits
to evolve in an airport cue
stepping into the swamp of sludge
known as future

pilgrim crumb (1994)

shuttled from the airport
across farmland, pineapple, sugar cane,
cannabis, in the bed of dusk pickup
we reach the sweet hut
nestled in amongst guava aroma,
walls of glass, host treats us
to local kindness,  then we drive up
to kula winding higher 
up the ocean mountain to a picnic
with a rope swing growing
into a fathomless dark swish

brandnames unite (1994)

conspiracy boards ship
w/cutlass, shhhh
it moves clever enuff to crawl beneath
starbullets& media garbage,
portions of which blatant product
placement deserve their own
pumped up gonad juices
composted of filler subtractives
& psychedellic flavor structures;
naturally, brandnames unite.
spooky, to own the world
& adjust the sun



Maui, Hi
