modus operandi

i found this poem on a staples note pad:


Fasldax} FLAT RATE X

years are our hours
our dreams become no better
along and alone, becoming
mechanical and binary

love becomes an impossible story

we have no say, we never know
how long or short our lives are

we become bad metaphors
sunk by/into pandemic
accepting the obvious truths
we’ve brought upon ourselves






some of my poems can be purchased here. other poets include: Eric Comerford, Vince Corvaia, Meredith Devney, Diandra Holmes, John McKernan, Lynn O'Donnell, Linwood Rumney, Larry Schug, Michael Steffen, Patrick Sugrue, Kyle Torke.

"[poetry is] a kind of ingenious nonsense” - sir isaac newton

new poetry/art collection/collaboration with ana c.



ana’s collaging makes me knee-weak/dead-legged/steven seagal-ed.

she is the georgia o'keeffe of pasting materials not normally associated with one another onto surfaces to be enjoyed.

her spontaneous mishmashings of clippings, photographs fragments, crossword puzzles, etc. shuck your brain from its calcium casing like the $2 oyster it is and ravenously tongue-mop your head clean before discarding what you once were like some barnacled shell.

adam coates helped too. i don't know adam coates but am grateful for adam coates. thank you adam coates. adam is a great name.
