My poetry

This section will deal with poetry I've written.


Universal Loneliness

If I were but a speck of dust
Cast in the endless realms of the universe
I doubt that I could be more lonely


Mortal

I look out on the beauty of the day-time sky
See the endless oceans of the blue;
Marvel at the gently drifting clouds;
And curse my mortal life.


The Fact

No man may be an island
But-
That there are an ever-increasing number of pennisulas
is self-evident


The Paradox

Were we what we are not,
And were but what we cannot be,
Then Man could call himself
Conqueror of infinity


Scientific Failure

You know, I've delved into Kinsey,
glanced at Masters and Johnson,
pondered Freud
examined the ancients
gathered all the data, facts and statistics possible
simulated them in a computer
and still I've failed
to find the meaning
of love.


Cry

I cry
a voice in the night
unheard
unknown
doomed to wail in sorrow
only rocks and walls
to hear my pain.
Why
must it be so?
