Premium Member A Haunting Waltz
A Haunting Waltz As I recline, wearied, on this eve so dark and dreary, Whispers in the shadows, tales of Victorian eerie. The moon, a spectral lantern, spills its ghastly glow on cobblestone streets, Where specters of yore, in corsets and top hats, discreetly meet. Beneath flickering gas lamps, secrets deftly concealed, In murky alleys, truths unfold, a clandestine reveal. Gloom, thick...

Premium Member Minding Other Peoples’ Affairs or Businesses
Minding other peoples’ affairs or businesses Some villainous pundits or vile hyenas are the best In simply doing just that, comrades. They ignore Their own problems. They leave a huge door Ajar, wide open, so they can put their flagitious nose In their neighbors’ personal businesses or affairs Please, always have the fireman’s water hose Ready, in check and in full force...

State of Affairs
Oh, life was good, the days were sunny Every taunt, every insult seemed funny, I loved all my foes and friends to a fault and ate my dessert with a pinch of salt. With a dash of vinegar, some sour cream I turned nightmare into the sweet dream, Aches, pains, cramps and shivering cold For pennies my profound thoughts I sold. I buried...

Premium Member Settling Contentious Affairs
Guns, and ballistic threats don't settle anything They can't, more quickly kill. Mindfulness, and compassion therapies, might restore peace We could most inclusively embrace. Could our court and prison and police and legislative systems become more mindful, less judgmental, by restoring win/win hopeful health? Rather than punishing shadowed neurodiversity and cognitive limitations and post traumatic stress disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorders and poverty and lack of affordable self-medication choices, Retribution revenge assuming perpetrators had real-world powers to choose and chose badly madly sadly. Court fines and forced confinement in...

Race 2
Race 2 Same old going down Graves of men now silent Nowt much happening here Just dead bodies buried After being riddled blasted Russians killed by Ukrainians Prisoners mostly of Wagner Sentences cut lives now cut Politicians bathe in blood They had quite a run Still race in Part 2 Race 1 was a loss No victory only death Plus injuries and ruin Battlefield injuries extreme It's fine there's time So...

Watching Love Affairs Like Spies
Folks watching love affairs like spies, All the scenes picked: sugared pies. They capture the whole truth through lies, Before the end of it truth flies! But wait: why? Again, I ask 'why?' The thought wisdom in it Big lie. We all should Decency Routes ply. To look one's judge straight in the eye. Why would an adult risk a pry, From a sage...
