Who killed the MC?
There he lay, splayed on the street
Chalk outlined mic and fist
A broken clock reads four past nine
Tatters of a golden thread left at the scene
Who gained from his silence?
Streets alive with revelation
Anarchic fire in the air
They’re coming for us with their rhymes
Gentlemen this isn’t what we had in mind
What will happen now he’s dead?
Yacht-and-champagne fantasies
Cheap factory beats repeat repeat
A few mad prophets rise and fade
Suburbia falls back to sleep
Who killed the MC?
A hot tub forged conspiracy

Suffer the plot of the parking lot,
Acts of attrition, lots of the disappearing shopping carts,
I had the camera out
Could hardly see where I’m going.
I called just to set up delivery
Then you laid out your whole life story
And relayed your PTSD of living with an anarchic narcissist
Neglected kids, a messy divorce, and the consequent fallout
She took him to the cleaners.
I simply walked out.
Actually, she left.
I was hard to live with.
I left it all go, years ago,
But suddenly, lately, it’s all returned.
Back in my world as if it just happened
And I am the one, all worse for ware,
Never wanting to talk about it.
Life comes back to haunt us,
Time escapes us...
No matter how far we run, or how much time passes,
That puts us right where we are, in the middle of it. ~psp

Seriousness leads to statehood
Eventually it does
Fun maintains anarchic mood
A peaceful little buzz
It helps the plants to grow
It colours up the day
It makes me want to go
Just every which way
I’m living on the fun side
In hiding from aggressiveness
Through time and space I gently glide
Away from seriousness
I know it stalks me anyway
To occupy my time
With suffering about what may
Occur like senseless crime
I can be judged, despised and banned
But fun’s the only thing
That never fails me in this land
Of which no bird would sing
All the calamities I’ve known
All troubles deadly heap
Can’t shatter love, which I had sown
And fun is what I reap.

___________________________________________
A storm swirls, hurling hail and snow,
In the bosom of winter, icy storms grow.
A scene that is both anarchic and grand,
A snowstorm, a shunned marvel of the land.
A whirling maelstrom is a whimsical sight,
Whispered mysteries haunt the cold night.
By merging their loads, icy crystals collide,
Winter chorus is earth-crowning pride.
Whispers of wind nurture a peculiar tune,
Melodic strains cross-changing boon.
Glazing crystals and crumbles sway,
An enthralling outlay winter waltz display.

On the human skin engraved
And for long seconds watched by The Enslaved
To the speechless delight of Spirit of the Eyes
Brazenly walking away with a victory, giant-size:
Self-pitying sighs From The Holy Ghost
Not remembered at His invisible but nearby post.
A great saver of precious Time
Now becomes Time’s Reckless Spender,
No longer valuing the accruing dime:
The tapestry on human skin his shaming bender:
What a magnificence - also quite dreary,
A preserver of one’s potential but in theory,
The covenanting marks largely a lasting puzzle
To the Neck-Deep Worldly, an enduring dazzle…
To forever remain paintings of resilience
On the welcoming flesh of People of Eminence
In some sense, the on-skin signature of The Anarchic
And stylish affirmation of a mind, chaotic;
Sometimes a hurried search for an intimidating identity,
Wherefore they may be The Badge of a Non-Entitiy.

I support folks who challenge a perceived wrong by peaceful demonstration.
The First Amendment guarantees that right, when all is said and done.
But I loathe the rioting rabble who are ripping apart this great nation!
Such anarchic mobs have no respect for anything or anyone!

Subconscious
I dream eat ice cream seam stories and dig deep for meaning
Held by my lover her emotional wisdom and joyful convening
Souls are infinite as minds are essential and bodies transcend
Sadness joy and surprise deep inside are my foe and my friend
I'm afraid of blindness writer's block as well as immobile hands
Wish to stir magic potions fly broomsticks and seek foreign lands

RECIPE: “Poulet Roti” French Style – Le Chant Royal (Instalment 3)
(Note: Rhyme scheme of “Le Chant Royal” where capital “E“stands for refrain, thus – Stanza: ababccddedE, Envoi: ddedE)
STANZA II
Cut the hot-water supply, make chicken freeze
Tear up the electric connections, the telephone
Ensure chicken swallows upstairs dust, e’en sneeze
Fix the plumbing, flood coop with merde from heaven
Funnel exhaust fumes into coop car cabin
After fixing the engine – closed doors – unseen
And when chicken leaves coop to forage for food
Invade the coop, sabotage shower for good
So as to keep chicken skin in constant stink
See that chicken pays for all damage in blood
Give the Alien Crowd free rope’s nodding wink!
ENVOI
Use the migrant lêches culs, the all-willing brood
Rejects from anarchic lands up to no good
Kitchen-help strut as Mason Chefs in a blink
Make their Masters’ ev’ry wish come true for good
Give the Alien Crowd free rope’s nodding wink!

To Sleep
As relentless day slips into the night,
Uninvited shadows from darkness creep,
And in the quiet evening’s failing light
Elusive Hypnos’ drugged captives sleep,
In far fantastic hidden caverns deep.
There Morpheus awakes in the sleeper’s mind,
Where anarchic dreams play outrageous themes
And the sleeper will untold stories find,
In the flow of those dark subconcious streams,
Revealed in unwilling sleep’s restless dreams.
