A Drunk's Bankruptcy... [Pt. XII]
bankrupt banks bite balls-
full of air- gnawing, repeatedly
deflating bubbles- leaving marks
marking to market to make 'profits'
appear from nowhere- broke
down, in the red- financial
fires furiously burning- brazen
claiming debts captured illicitly
be paid in full. fumigating
common cents, hanging on
by threads- paper trails en route
to eviction, collections- stealing
slyly our taxes… Continue

Patience... (Almost...?) [Pt. XI]
as i whirl these words at you
wind worlds around you
words swirling 'round you
a whirlwind
twirling the moment
as a baton
bending it 'round your head until it fits
slamming the baton through you
in one ear
through
to the other side
bolting it down
these words cannot be misspoken
these words cannot be forgotten
these words cannot leave
these words are yours
my words are yours
as are your… Continue

(Stream of) Consciousness [Pt. X]
pouring, bouncing- thoughts- back,
forth, forgotten; forlorn- memories
lost, ‘lore’ untold, torn apart
by the storm- thoughts swirling,
tornadic; swindling, robbing you
of your senses: consciousness degraded
as you debate inwardly, testing
theories toward oblivion inside
deciding not to be sensible about
abandoning thoughts for action-
reacting (finally) consciously, collected
open, streaming- live… Continue

About Me (Curriculum Vitae) [Pt. IX]
1-11-01- i remember clearly- nervous
first application accepted- Soldier in training
Cadet by 9/11- the principles now ingrained
though training- unfortunately- stayed, incomplete
missed A.I.T. twice because i could not ‘compete’
for the few spots open to training the Young-
Kids- to serve, protect, fight and draw blood.
generally discharged eventually to Wait politely
on your tables- Ruby Tuesday, two of… Continue

Family Time (Addicted Forever?) [Pt. 8]
Torn, slashed, broken down- left
Estimated inaccurately- wound tightly
Recent incident involving auto theft
Not expected- from my perspective- blind
Immediate encounter- waiting, resigned
Took it off- lost the key- no-mind
Years spent weary waiting to align
Immersion- suburban excursion, uncertain
Now used to being used it comes back through
Finally taking a break- memory’s last curtain
Infirm- only… Continue

Gravity (= Pi ^ 2) [Pt. VII]
Sun Jul 23, 2006 12:53 pm
Sorry I'm late...
I was
Very
Literally
Affected by the blackout
No phone, either
If I had my laptop,
I'd use it to calculate
The probability
Of those same two events
Occurring in simultaneity...
But my battery was dead…
Gravity = 9.86 = (Pi * Pi)!
2,000,000,000 digits. Have. Be. Come. Here.
(Pi CANNOT… Continue

What Does It Take To Sober Up a Drunk? (#3/3)
an allergic reaction, alternating
between, beneath, bourne by blood
carrying chemicals; coursing all directions
dominating, dimming- donning for me my mask
every eery shred- doubt- eeks in
feeding on, fomenting from these formulations
gravity grabs tighter; green, grounded
hooded, hopeless- horrified by my diagnosis
irritated; in fact, entirely ired- immune
jailed, jogging in place, jet-set to… Continue

What Does It Take To Sober Up a Drunk? (#2/3)
shaking, unsure, confused; caught in an endless loop
awake, absorbing, falling; unconscious of the truth
doubted, daunted, disabled; vision blurred by lack of breath
watching- fearing instead of acting, wishing only for a quick death
hoping it will come to me before those around me pass
not seeing how i drain them with each sip from the glass
not seeing how our dreams are so intricately entertwined
my intentions… Continue

VI, VI, VI #2 - A Candle In the WInd [For Afghanistan] (November 2009)
Cynical maybe, psychotic possibly- theoretically speaking
Awful cycles of vile vicious violence may eventually end
Natural evolution of a revolution- a final end to 'tweaking'
Death, destruction, doom- doors open... slowly.. as i append
Letters of feeling to lesson lunacy of illegal wars, wary
Even though i know i can do nothing but wait, wonder, carry
Into the open the lies they've told- for oil,… Continue

VI, VI, VI - Peaches for Iraq (June 2006)
For Pip I will remake the world… or maybe
not… Eternity, infinity, trinity,
diversity, unity, humanity.. am I the
outraged youth that must explain this world
to you? I see trinity in diversity: the
universe is eternal. “Truthiness” is a
daily show on comedy central, and comedy
Central is right here in the U.S.A.
Is this an apology? Hypothetically
Inventively intending intervention (In
other words,… Continue

Pendulum (The Battle Between You & You)
i can't take it, so here i go
out the door, away from you
but i can't take that either, i would miss you
torn between two different loves
the one that loves me and the one that doesn't
but to say either doesn't love me isn't really fair
i know that both of you do and that both of you care
the problem is that you're both in one head
i feel like i'm watching a fight and taking bets
on which one will give out and finally… Continue

A Re-Run (in Afghanistan)... [Pt. V]
broken, battered- batteries dead, deceased
dealing 'destruction'- employing structural DISorganization
damned, ignored- an engine, idling- innocent, instantly
i think. if you asked me i ask you what is most-
or more- important- when i ask mostly i hear
you say DISserviced motors- mortars mangling making miserable
targets? goals? strategies? strategically speaking softly...
what do you think is best for me? for U.S.?… Continue

i 'Wrote' To Nikki Giovanni... (but she doesn't do e-mail)
[Professor] Giovanni,
My name is George Cooley. I am a 22 year old alumnus of the College of Arts and Sciences (I majored in Economics). This past year I was teaching mathematics (geometry and trigonometry) at Orange County High School... when I started to see something in the numbers- my country is lying to me... I know nothing about writing or poetry, but I know I want to write and see as much of the world as I can. I have a message… Continue

What Does It Take To Sober Up a Drunk? (#1/3)
wandering, pondering, wondering why
what evil deed have i done said i
to drive from so near to so far away
you- i had you beside me yesterday
you said it was nothing that i had done
neither my despicable actions nor your dissatisfaction
not a thing you could fault me for- not one
no responsibility lies with you- not a fraction
you said sarcastically as i lay there gasping
for the same air you… Continue

Strategically Speaking Metallic Misery [Pt. IV]
11/21/09
* G.O.A.T. = Get Out [of] Afghanistan, Tyrants
“One Dead Battery”
One dead battery, another dead body
No more pain, a future now plotted
Evenly entombed- a tour through; phrases
Dealt carefully attempting to explain this
Every last dead battery is one more too many
A piece of peace drained; a loss for our country
‘Duty calls,’ they… Continue

Midnight Moonlight Refrain (E.S.T.)
O U.S.A. Can You Hear Me?
U.S.A… trinity diversity university destiny
It was not that they wanted to destroy
They were showing us… how? Do we even
Count things that don’t exist? Calories...
from food.. Dollars and sense?
NO… All there is is a letter 'O'
the water in the sea.
You and me… a world away… on vacation
Twin towers came crashing down I now know
Because we can’t even count to… Continue

A 'Seen-It' Debate On Healthcare
paranoid posturing
pointedly pouting, pandering
rendering reality
an abomination
assuming responsibility
as spokespersons
for the power-hungry; hateful
when prudent power lies
in passivity
passively we rotate
focused on a landscape
of unconstitutional bickering
bitter kindergarteners, it seems; fickle
WE ARE
fighting fret-less-ly
letting the score
of our conscience… Continue

An Homage To Triangularly Folded Flags- Wasted! [Pt. III]
11/19/09
“Desperate, Dreaming”
Apologies for not fitting into your system
Not living for money or out fighting terrorism
Home, alone- family-less for a time- just being
Openly unemployed, uninsured, desperate- believing
Miraculously enough, that maybe i could make a difference
A dream i keep having- again and again, sentence by sentence
Getting closer to it, it… Continue

Diversity University #2 (Pt. II, #2)
In an alien’s infinite eyes, two worlds collide
Collision course calculated appropriately and accurately
Lyrically challenging mathematics, medicine, economics as practiced
Operating openly- under the influence of gravity-
Veracious (or not, as necessary), gracious- space is
Everywhere; outside of time, space is spacious.
Reality check- an undefined species is demanding time-
Surely, succinctly- to cease… Continue
