Jade

The windows of stars and summit of green in forest— 
The willows snowed by satin marmalade. 
The riders dwarfed by dreams and fantasies jade 
On road as sparrows sing of Java fest 
By river, swans raising love near nest 
Remembered songs I swan as pupils dilate 
The tangled branches squirrels in Palisades 
Are swimming-born-again romantic tenants. 

On Tappan Zee the Java Head and Ossining 
In world I'm free to jazz on home at ending 
Of dragon skies, beyond are city tails. 
The firemen in flow and jerks on high in hail 
And deer on story marketplace they feel. 
Our driver steers into vacuum tunnel.

Moment

Nicotianas rose in the garden  in my mind's 
Dark twilight awaiting dreams. 
The location of the black hole the clock starred 
On the moonlight of your snowy arms I gleaned 
In faith's motions on my sheet longing for your cloud 
I lost in a moment's deja vu romantic beam 
Intended to warm my cup of flow buds, 
Nightcaps of love and tea's steam. 

Partner's became parts of speech in a play 
Dancing behind my eyelids in your prime. 
Night clothes grew tails on the way. 
Igloos I lived in hid my crime, 
Penguin henchmen on my job by day 
And frozen TV dinners at home.

Understand, My Baby's Hospital

Ulcer sores; bare spots among red patient Lucys.

Jasmine

The pale yellow sunshine in a world's cold notion., 
Stacy on my shoulder an atlas could not shake loose. 
Safety pinned pajamas ingest wonders coming north, 
The gold soiled stale ancient leaves anchor silk feast. 
Pharaoh and jasmine class inpecuniary jet set oath 
Omnipotent but too anonymously suave to be the beast 
Tracing the olive in the whiskey the redcoats bought. 
Icy potent butter anemones touring the galaxy 
Gone wave platinum dreams one-sided when ready taught, 
Spicy patented talk onerous misdeeds never cease, 
The girls play part-time on the streets really no-fault. 
Soviets journey to the outer limits of reality 
The French pulled a century ago inciting twilight sleep 
For freedom a couple going out loves the inclination we 
Romantically fall during the war salvation cuddles 
Nova dancing cheek to cheek to your white silken lace. 
Red miners, cashmere goats drifting since sheared and sheered, 
For Christ's mom caring for the pandoras depraved 
In stables pink leather jackets open wise men bearded 
For angels on pipes call the dating cuisine pieces.
