Acute Childhood Astronomical Paranoia
In the sky, a brightly shining sun
is sending rays to catch someone,
but 'neath the trees I swiftly run.
Now, the hunt is taken by the moon,
but she won't snatch me very soon.
I peek from bed at that cratered goon,
who, undaunted, does then recruit
reinforcements, evil stars that shoot
twinkles at me, in hot pursuit,

The Mirage
The river Life is nothing but a glib tunnel,
Except for the dazzling water, it is just a disastrous canal.
Except for any untamed misery,
It would only be an adversary.
Except for an acute pied piper,
This river would be an unalike well-giver.
The fragile memories spring up in the corridor,
In which nobody can hope for the undisclosed Advisor.
It is

Acute Observation
How wonderful you looked tonight
Those boots you wore were out of sight
You truly are the cat's meow
When you walked in my eyes said, "Wow!"
All woman, yes, from head to toe
A tattoo on my heart, you know?
Desire's there at every turn
And I still think about slow burn

A New World Question
A New World Question
Now —
It must be asked— seriously —
How despised is hatred?
Hating hatred?
Who? When? Where? How?
What…to do about that? The ways
Of feeling — totally pondered — so
Considerably needed for
Actions sculpted
To fit a better, newer, whole world —

To Acute Awareness
Let us not wallow in a quixotic stupor;
Becoming their silly food-stamped serfs:-
Maudlin beings drained of all our vigor—
Doomed to old slave quarters berths.

Acute Little Love Foray-
Cavalry chivalry;
Splendor cadillac ;
I'm sure love
For you shall;
Not to be ignored;
Beloved you are my
Beloved;
And heated bliss;
I must insist;
I 'll seal our hearts wish;
With the Velvet kiss;
Splendor a cabaret;
I love you so this day;
What a beautiful foray?

Acute Consumption
Weary, sullen, mournful face,
A tale of internal disturbance tells,
Perhaps of some chronic illness,
Or of current affairs!
Dark rings around the eyes,
Malar prominence and sunken cheeks,
Malar flush of high fever,
Makes the diagnosis more clear
Clinicians! beware! pay attention!
It may be Acute consumption!
( Note:-- The first episode of
Acute consumption i.e.
Acute miliary tuberculosis may
masquerade Acute bronchitis. )
