Terence George Craddock Poems

insatiable leaking curiosity
come fleet now visit me
let us fly our silk dark flags
for going to guarded places
...

we are born tabula rasa the blank slate
all that we shall do all that we shall be
is written we shall write our own destiny?
...

human intellect at birth is not pure potentiality
already love in abundance poured out upon wanted
loved cherished fetus stacks cards favourable odds
...

please quote evidence behavioural genetics
what is learned from fashion random studies
especially interesting twin adoption studies?
...

when you were young and wise a teenager
when girls looked at you with puppy dog eyes
you had an easy choice not to hurt their hearts
if you knew exactly what they wanted in their hearts
...

writing in dreams can achieve seamless perfection glorious

to write a poem perfect in a dream is an energizing bliss
but to remember the poem upon waking is not a near miss
...

hot in the fierce
burning overhead sun
but cool beneath a green
tree shade breeze
...

a straw brim country shade hat
protects from the scorching sun
better than a trendy baseball cap
...

waking in a grey bland
fingernail dull morning
is choice smile applied
with an attentive adorning
...
