Fait Accompli

Follow me,it's this way Alice
Through the woods to the white Queens Palace
On the way we'll stop for tea
to visit old friends you'll be glad to see
Then you'll rest up so as to feal cocky
before you face the Jabberwocky


Some days you'll grow and some you'll shrink
Some days your chained to the kitchen sink
The twins are waiting

Fait Accompli

young john anthony david grant
was brought up by his maiden aunt
who though she filled his life with joys
had little experience of men or boys
she taught him manners and dressed him neat
so he always raised and lowered the toilet seat
washed his hands and combed his hair
and sat politely in his chair
a delightful type of boy who

Fait Accompli

Everyone hates me eventually,
so why don’t you do it now

Saving us time, uncoupling the rhyme
—your anger my presence endows

Fait Accompli

You can’t stop the marching hordes 
They’ve got you on the run

But your time’s already done 

History proclaims itself 
Is what the poets say
You’re going to cause a lot of pain
Until you see that way

You’re already looking at me  
From your prison cell
Even now you’re wondering

Fait Accompli'

A gift or obligation,
  the Poet signed his name

A promise wrapped in silence,
  decision masked by pain

One choice among the many,
  within salvation lies

The victors lay unspoiled
  —with truth to live or die

Standing for nothing….
  falling for everything

Time becomes your master
  each moment—zero sum

A Fait Accompli

Full contact Poetry
The ultimate fight
Death match supreme
The truth within sight
Pulling no punches
The ink bleeding free
The wound beyond mortal
A Fait Accompli

Fait Accompli

Today I watched a video
Set to music
It was faithless stuff
Reminding me
Of the creatures in virtual reality
Trying to discern how to navigate
Through their maze of
Confused white lights
And misdirection
Upheld by a puff of air
With only the vaguest notion
Of some reward to strive for --

And I realize how the
Signals the maze gave off threw you
And led you down
