re: new poems

hello friends, fans, foe and lovers,

here is a new poem, i've begun working on a new series of writing that i may or may not publish some time down the road as a book. we'll see what happens. it is funnier poetry i think, mainly because i feel better and at peace with things in my life. or trying to at least, understand things in life and cosmos and to just let them be instead of trying to control them or be frustrated by them.

anyhow, here's a new poem for your consideration:

The party is over:

It hurts where I used to play

I’ve become invisible

To women of a variety

Of ages

As I let myself go

Here and there

Spilling out of my shirt

And sides

My orgasm sounds have become

My pissing sounds

Whereas a few years ago

I was enjoying the field

Now I enjoy watching

Marathon episodes

Of new comedies or

Action thriller series

I no longer think

About relationships

Or maybe “this one will work”

Or anything like that

I don’t want to share my time

With anyone anymore

Time is precious

I don’t want to learn to deal

with idiosyncrasies

Or live with anyone

Or listen to their bullshit

Or neurosis

No I’m content to putter

About my home

Make art

Play guitar

And parent my children

As I prepare

To enter the third quarter of my life

I’m cool with it.

re: new video poem

hello friends, fans, foe and lovers,

here's my new video poem for my new book, "A moon made of copper," entitled "watching you," which is about parenting and missing your children when out on the road working, being away from home, trying to make a living and so on. as well as being creative if you're an artist, musician, poetry, filmmaking and so on......

balancing family and work is never easy, add creativity and the need to appease the muse, then it's almost impossible to do. i'm away at least a couple months a year on the road, and i miss my kids every single day, but this is down from up to six months a year. you go away, do your thing, work, try to make some money, and come back, buildings have gone up, or been torn down, people become parents, people die, get sick and seasons pass. it's a weird life.

anyway, this video is for parents who work at being creative and being parents simultaneously, i recorded this song with my kids playing in the background and is probably the only demo song to ever start off with "Hey! Feet out of the face!" hahaha

until next time,

cb
