http://thepenguinpoet.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Tuesday, August 30, 2011. None of us are ready. None of us are ready. Tonight. We float in a. As the tide washes us. None of us are ready. And yet it is time. We. One hand upon the stars. As a new voice sings bright. None of us are ready,. Our arms still tangled in. Each other’s hair, we lift. This wet thing to our chest. And say, “This is a gift. None of us are ready. To receive.” And it’s true. Is chastened before such. None of us are ready,. Sunday, August 2...

Penguin Poems: November 2011
http://thepenguinpoet.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Tuesday, November 29, 2011. What if Jesus had been a union man,. And his twelve disciples had all been plumbers? Or tool-and-die guys, or even. Imagine the parables that might have been told. Of leaking U-bends, and toner cartridges. Found at the back of the supply cupboard,. Right behind the post-its and motivational t-shirts. His mother would have run the show. For sure – along with all the other stalwarts. Who had paid their dues over the years. Some long-de...

A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Tuesday, December 20, 2011. Reading the paper placemat at Colombo’s). Start at the heel of the boot,. At the sumptuously-named Lecce,. And run your finger around the graceful. Toe, beaded with Sicilian heat. Move slowly upwards, pausing at the knee. To genuflect at the Holy City, then on. To gaze in awe at the high-swept sinews. Of the landscape leading up to Assisi. Come around the thigh, taking time to. Taste the savors of Bologna, Parma, Genoa,. Upwards by t...

Penguin Poems: Something worth saving (the Octain Refrain)
http://thepenguinpoet.blogspot.com/2012/04/something-worth-saving-octain-refrain.html
A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Thursday, April 12, 2012. Something worth saving (the Octain Refrain). Before you start to save my soul. From hell, it’s hardly worth it yet. There so much life I want to get. To, if you’d spare the time. Is this: to take a week to break. I want to roll. Back here, sky-high on being whole,. Before you start to save my soul. Sometime last year, I ran into the poetic work of Luke Prater. He writes a great blog under the title. The rhyme scheme is as follows:.

Penguin Poems: How we got to Vegas
http://thepenguinpoet.blogspot.com/2012/04/how-we-got-to-vegas.html
A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Tuesday, April 10, 2012. How we got to Vegas. Looking back on it, we might have. Thought twice before bringing a kid. Thirteen hours to the Grand Canyon. It just never occurred to us. Looking back on it, we might have. Noticed the first signs of distress. When he stopped in the parking lot. At the South Rim and turned around,. Striding away from the view, not. Looking back at it. We might have. Forced him to stay, but why go there? April 10, 2012 at 4:13 PM.

Penguin Poems: February 2012
http://thepenguinpoet.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
A loving, sidelong glance at ordinary life. Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Some days I really fret about karma,. Afraid that I have totally screwed up. My chance to bring peace to those around me. I feel guilty for taking advantage. Of your love for crunchy peanut butter,. And shame for the ways I schemed against you. Each time I picture you, lying spread out. In the kitchen, stiff as a tiny board,. I wince, and hope it didn’t hurt too much. Next time around the wheel, if you come back. Lying in the moon.
