Marsh shilling (walled herd)

hot air wind Copeland

[Well, ShallowMan’s ne’er at a loss
for voicing shallow thoughts that gloss.
With trenchant wit he reaps the dross
when seeking sense in applesauce.

But to his aid flies FactoidMan
who always has a Fact at hand;
with him, who needs a whether-man
to answer “if?” or...Read More

The Good Book tells us that God rested on The Seventh Day,
To unwind upon His Throne and His handiwork survey.
He foresaw the mess we mere mortals would make of things,
Abetted by all humankind to include politicians and ruling kings!

Right off...Read More

A tale of two twins ...


Kit:	That sure was a mean swing, Dottie. You knocked it out of the park. You’re the Sultana of Swat. I love the way you ‘round the bases doing your cute duckie trot. I love how...Read More

Ooh...this... just an amazing grace note
     recalling how I felt like an ass
and wanna toot 'bout me getting steered
     (as a heavy metal kid Rocker)

We're all going on a summer holiday
So sung Cliff in 1963
It all went wrong with Yorkshire's constabulary,
Aided and abetted by the BBC
Sorted by the judiciary.

Some holidays are quiet and peaceful,
Some others are loud and intense,
Some are taken in luxury hotels
Others...Read More

Perhaps at the days complete
This date with death shall not
prove to be deadbeat.
The outcome has proven quite concrete.
Tragedies that shades
itself behind deaths eyes
piercing to contaminate
like some Blastomyces:
Ready to enter my blood to do some harm.
like some invading fungi who does...Read More

     Perhaps in another i.e. alternate world, this middled aged (baby boomer bona fide bra burner) of two well nigh near grown daughters felt caught in an invisible whirled wide web The Parent Trap.

Perhaps at the days complete

Entwined


Buried it!
Deep in denial’s tomb
it grew, weed like,
nurturing its hate,
feeding its neediness
at the expense
of withering flowers.

Tortured tentacles
laced themselves angrily
about truth,
entwined themselves
in the falsity
of failure,
spreading a pall
upon success.

Suffocating fear
attended the loneliness
grasping attempts
at feigned freedom
in strangling defeat.

Release, escape,
abetted
soft petals
entwined
in the gentle touch
of...Read More

Of all the breeze that just passed by me,
Of all the wind that touched my knees.
I remember the days of the olden scrapes,
Of all the exuberant but dull etches.
A window and the express called for me,
The frame carried all the...Read More

The title of this talk today,
"Win-Win Politics of New Feminist Economics"
suggests questions,
more than emasculating 
definitively deductive
reductive
answers.

Would you imagine
a minority-identified Buddhist,
more likely as a feminist
or culturally comfortable
with political and economic Left-brain domination,
monopolistic competing toward total self-consuming
reiteratively ritualistic functions?

How would you compare...Read More

Martha Mae

Pretty and gay

Loved to sew

So, her husband to-be

Stacked onesies in a row

But it came not to pass, you see

For he soon discovered her strange addiction

To keep from being bored

She began to hoard

Children, permanent babysitting, or abduction

He couldn’t give her...Read More

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Seventeen

Of late the tepid cold only rebousse poil her coyness
Nowhere the slushy mud caked into strands of crunchiness
Even the over-mothering coots let their chicks roam all alone
Sand and soil slop in swishing puddles...Read More

Surly Sally slipped and lost a flip flop
at a hearty party in a bungalow with Billy.
while dancing and prancing to hip hop
whirling and twirling and spinning silly.

Can you reverse and remember the flop she flipped?
Well it ludicrously landed in the...Read More

I lost my mien I lost my unity
To the shadow of tartarus 
Abided by the doom of iniquity
To the horde of vicious
Ached by the blamed chastity 
To the blood of befouled gravitas.

I lost my alias I lost my faith
To the...Read More

It's only, so much love you can give
It's only, so long you can live
It's only, so much pain you can take
from time to time, people do make mistakes
It's only, so much time we have
for people who've done bad,they must feel...Read More

Arrogance absorbs
an ambition
as asses attack asses:
all are astray,
aghast and alone.

Amidst atrocities
and abhorrence,
an angel aspired amity; 
amaranthine ardor: agony, absent...

Arms appeared
and accorded assistance;
all are abetted,
amidst apprehensions.

Such heavy artillery,
To whom shall we run,
To God have we come,
In pain and sad form,
To state our hearts' deform,
To stake our rights and reforms,
You know that where two Elephants fight the grass suffers,Do be well informed,
My youngmen you have been,...Read More

This woman in female form that consumes my every waking moment
Drives me to distraction balances my mind between coherence and border line 
insanity

She is the embodiment of male fantasy the combination of evolving yet almost 
reaching the absolute perfection that...Read More
