Grey and white clouds

  half cover blue skys 

 and magnify the June sun.

The deafening racket

of the unceasing operations

of the furnaces, grinders,

and various other

dangerous machines

inside the plant 

 blend into a distant,

static white noise

that can be continually heard

from the smoke hut outside.

 A man

wearing a black cap

with red lettering

that says PING,

converses passionately

 with a starnger

I wanted to share this, I wrote it ten years ago. I was on a Ginsberg kick. It is written in beat style and was inspired by to poems I read about America, one by Ginsberg, the other by Langston Hughes. I was trying to capture my mixture of love and sorrow for this wonderful country. I hope you like it. It's kinda long.



AMERICAN CACOPHONY

Old white shepherds in Armani suits
tend sleeping herds. Unseated judges
roam highways and cities, search for new dreams
and catastrophies. Grumbling teamsters
share coffee with scab truckers in

So I am Zen.

The creator, the initiator and the procrastinator.

I was known as nil on the other forum

The reason I change my name is due to some technical issue when I import the profiles.

You are encourage to post your bios here, even though you might have already done so on the other forum.
