death class of 2064

The DJ
schmoozes
“And now we have a request”
“Here’s a little
Rage, Against, The Machine”
Then starts to croon,on the keyboard:
“Killing in the name of!
Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses
Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses…”
as the aids hand out medication.

This time
in this life,
a plateau
to which
I will never
return.
I will

When I can no longer walk
I will watch.
When I can no longer see
I will listen.
When I can no longer hear
I will tell my stories.
When I can no longer remember
I will make them up.
colony collapse
restless legs
identity theft
tainted eggs
leaded Barbie
cancer genes
home invasion
tainted greens
diseased hearts
deadly sin
broken parts
tumbling in
tasered youth
speech bereft
monks for truth
what love is left?
popping pills
guns in school
glossy pages
skinny cool
homeless nola
no one cares
bullies at war
shiny wares
early risers
sound alarms,
can’t convince
of coming harms

anxious images

when death comes
February 1, 2007
when death comes
the hand of life
reaches down
to lift up the soul
like a kitten
and gently
place it elsewhere

it does not matter
how long I live
as long as I generate peace
where then?
July 5, 2006
it may seem
as one gets older
and friends
begin to die off
and associates
begin to die off
and siblings
begin to die off
and unknown age-mates
populate the obituary
it may seem
life has become a game
of musical chairs
