  • Gorilla - 18
    What does it matter if they are black they live in golden rays. They are the salts of this soil; the sun burning over their heads is their magnificent crown. They have muscles. Don’t you know? And when those muscles wake up and flow forward like flood, their power can be known – you may think they are a handful of clay but I am with them.
    I make faces of gods with human clay. I sculpture the idol of man with the tool of pain – I have stringed my bow and I am searching for the target. You cannot read my mind until I strike.
    Take heed, poetry is not just an art of spinning cut words from cotton. Poem in your hands is an instrument of flattery the poem in my hands is the roar of the Gorilla. Come before the flames of my fury then you shall know.
    The athletic bodied god at the furnace is producing with every stroke of the hammer, angels of metal, guns , canons , daggers , spears and arrows. They are rushing out like armies from the worlds of the fire, spelling disasters to the actors who are freely romping around in the costumes of poets and leaders ...
  • Turned Into Water And Fled Away-3
    On my memory a pillar broke and crashed, grass grew on my voice, the cows grazed and gave milk to the children o the earth; in the throats of the children my voice sprouted as poems - and gold fainted on them; god entered Kalidas and washed his hands with tears

    With storms of gold I wash my grave; I adorn it with the wings of centuries. I fill it with famed suicides . I cut my head overflowing with locks of light and, placing it in a bejeweled platter offer it ...

Edgar Albert Guest Poem
The Killing Place
 by Edgar Albert Guest

We're hiking along at a two-forty pace
We 're making life seem like a man-killing race,
With our nerves all on edge and our jaws firmly set
We go rushing along; with our brows lined with sweat
And our cheeks pale and drawn every minute we dash,
And the goal that we 're after is merely more cash.

We 're out for the money, the greenbacks and gold,
