JOE POEWHIT Poems

Look good - boy.
SALE - day now.
You lived the ship.
We just want your - gold.
...

THAT STUFF

Got it man.
Yea! ! real good.
...

A CIGAR [doorboy]

Been on your old feet.
That big front door to keep.
...

Here I sit for only a moment in time. All of eternity and GODS
creation surround me. I am so small and minute next to all this
temporal state. So short a time, only the span of a heart beat,
next to the pulse of all. A space to look out upon the external.
...

The barrel makes a sound.
Tap, that rat & round.
KEEP - pour another - profound.
'KITCHEN' - crackers - cheese mound.
...

SONGS

Rush to me with outstretched arms.
Bring the songs of enraptured nights.
...

STILLNESS

Gentle cushion blooming dawn.
Caress the solitude of life.
...

QUIET SILENCE

Not a sound to notice.
Only the blank of nothing.
...

LONELY DAYS

Caught in crimson fire.
Lost with a crying sorrow.
...

RING TRUE

Songs fill the empty sky.
Beyond a place in motions time.
...
