20 Gently!
20 is the age,
That many feel,
Is life’s apex
A self view,
Dream’s engage,
Visions unreel,
Of Youth’s rare vortex,
Energy accent ague,
Center stage,
Focus visions steal,
From our older annex,
Simcha True!
Love gently, yet rage,
Agin’ emotion neuter unreal,
Cuddle is the text,
Sensate Focus is the rule,
Be infected via phage,
Of 20, Gently!
A Shepherd's Day by Suzanne Alexander (SA)
Wee, from East then West!
Seen one side then Next.
Feel a beautiful day, start is laid
Sjoe, from sting of Ray.This said,
Baa, from Ewe - distinct face!
Moor from one side at annex she graze,
Aye mi smeel yummy scone buttered.
Lighe nam lips whilst I muttered.
Shoo, splish-splash rain came unforseen
raining stairs of rods clearly seen
soil exposed with heathered bole
the red pigment irks the soul.
Ewe, come, sinn cùm sàbhailte!
to the huge bole hole, wee time, to shed.
Close jist ower the way so near,
baa, from rascal Mule , mi clu from ear.
C' mon ye little mule so blue
Safe its here by bole used as hue.
The noo! Mule. He came then settled.
Jack Snipe seen in marsh nestled.
Far in the distance a thunderclap
Meat today with pap.
With money earned just a little.
and hands brittle.
As the rain drops snipes my face,
Content I am to run , this race
Yet a sadness for unfair wage
But joyful not being in a cage.
Day, from graft then came night
Hame my manor is in sight.
Safe the ewe and mule I put,
aye, that'll dae. Day in tear and joy shut.
Bound by the curse arise from inception,
Tethered was my fate,with this ruthless salvation_
Despair got this hand through the reality' shade;
Despite being apoplectic your glint never fades..
Redirected were your sights, only on this influence
While the rumbling glares got healed through your calm incandescence_
"Hey god", if you can feel the sanity of my heart!
Then confront this query of mine, why keep us apart?
A voice filled with allurance, ringed through them,
Out of his sympathy,his words commenced_
Distanced by your fate,will reunite through love;
On that eccentric night your souls will descend
Let life be witness,when hands annex above.
The thread with you bound by will come to an end..
Along with the compromises,the pact had been made
They both did agree with what the god said,
Point off the window the child interrogates-
Mom, can you tell me why the moonlight fades?
Mother answered,"That's what we call a lunar Eclipse!",
In which those two bodies meet defying the nemesis.
It was a hot day, I was on my way back from Spar, carrying a bag of groceries. I walked past the lilac bushes in bloom, past the annex to the medical centre with its small car park, rounding my house. From the side of the old red-brick typography building I heard an incomprehensible sound, like a tuba from underwater, the sound was muffled, even and deep. I immediately identified a C minor chord. Prolonged, devoid of modulation, the sound lingered in space as I walked across the ramp past the lilac bushes. It was impossible to make out exactly what it sounded like. As if from behind, there was some tenor sound in the background, but it was so faint that I could barely hear it. No one sat on the benches at the entrance to the house. The sun-drenched ramp area, the faded walls of the house, the bright blue sky. I went up to my flat, and went out onto the balcony. From the balcony I could hear nothing, there was the dead silence of a summer day. It's evening now, I'm writing this worthless story, but I can't get over the fact that I couldn't identify the source of the sound or its purpose. The only thing I could make out was an evenly sustained, deep C minor chord.
~ 'Rap-Style' ~
Freedom from Hamas
Freedom from Abbas
Eliminate Sinwar
No more war
Redevelop Gaza
with kosher shopping plazas...
From Transjordan to the sea
All Israel's territory
Annex it 60 years ago
Defy the ‘status quo’ ...
Israel stands unbowed
~ Israeli Jews are proud
________________________________
How about a little rap to remind the
radical left, the White House, Congres-
sional Democrats, and the world of the
true and just war Israel is fighting
against the monsters of Hamas, against
Abbas with his 'pay-to-slay-Jews' program
for 'brave' Palestinians, and against Sinwar,
who promises thousands of October seven
massacres/holocausts - 'til every last Jew
is dead. Sinwar is this generation's Hitler...
Moortje was left behind
(Anne Frank's poor sweet feline)
It'd be hard to keep her
plus without her, cheaper
--to take care of the folks
but she'd miss Anne's soft strokes
--and all her loving care
though they were not aware...
...They'd never meet again
yet Mouschi's safe within
their secret annex place
(in Peter's attic space)
they could've been cat-friends
not long, before it ends
Do kitties understand
the suffering of man?
My cat knows when I'm sad
comforts me, til I'm glad
My heart's depressed for Anne :(
and their doomed hiding plan
(but previous to that
I'm sad she lost her cat)
Head cold
Gets old
Night rough
Nose stuffed

Eyes fried
Eyes pried

Glued shut
Nose snot

Rough cough
Head off
Bad hack

Slow scene
Feel mean

Take heart

God’s bean:
Caffeine!
Drums of war are beating
With bated breath the world is waiting
As Russia threatens to annex Ukraine
And NATO bares its fangs at her to refrain
Down this road we have been before
It brought nothing but calamity to the fore
The world should head to the table of dialogue
And Ignore leaders with conceited monologue
COVID 19 pounded the world to economic paralysis
Amidst climate change crisis
Let the world rise and say no to aggression
To save the planet from total annihilation
Rome wasn't built in a day
When the Romans themselves
arrived to annex Egypt claim
it for it's Empire
And seen the Pyrmaids for
the very 1st time
They had been built and
stood already
Longer than if you or i
or anyone of us present day
Went on pilgrimage to view
them today
Because in fact they would
have already been in existence
For about nearly a millennium
before
You or i or even the Roman
empire was to set foot upon
The Memphis Plateau
Where the 3 Pyrmaids of Giza
Still reside till today
The 1st and 7th Wonder
of the World
With certain of it's sectrets
still safely intact
Least of all
How they in fact
We're able to be built at all
The most intoxicating mystery
Since stepping foot on the moon
An elixir of grail proportion
Thanking you once again
Sir D.K for
posthumously bringing
this to my attention
Pardon to cause impair
Never meant to affront there,
Thought my smile will heal it
But I realized it annoyed you deep within,
Not bein to convey it
But I truly survey it,
Trust is the word that affix us
Causing two to annex up,
Don’t confront me each single time
As I am not always wrong to be bind,
Stay close if you ever cared
One sorry will make everything clear.
new suns kiss upon a lighted skin begins a life
with heart so light it cannot know
the weight of all the love that it applies
annex without exit tending every mattered soul
formed anew with flowers grown and
gifted from the depths of your unmeasured heart
a love expected, born in every new life yet to be
erasing older pains delivered by removal of each core
wherein the seed of you will now begin
this moment or the next, a happening
that brings us each ascending to the fore
and this is all we’ll ever know of love
Hearts follows not but feelings
With determination in as a fool
To achieve nothing but another heart
To be attached into an annex body
But with its luminous that still cannot hide
Like smoke will always diffuse.
It annexation even with difficulties
Coated into a single arm
Which can only be enstrangled
If not with a rend of flesh
And burst of mucsle and vein
To asunder the coated radius and ulner
Built with a triumphant victory
Of that of isrealite fall of jericho
Built with the shield of warfare
Without any space for david stone
Is likened to it scripture built for
A bounding forever
He wore his big gaudy oversize rolex
Chewing on some tex-mex with his ex
Forever flipping through his rolodex
On the phone with gents and rednecks
He’d invite his clientele to a fashion vortex
On the main floor of his triplex
Where he sold suits in the annex
And quality unisex turtlenecks
In exchange for cash and cheques
When he’d run out he’d offer rainchecks
Or start showing off some fancy crewnecks
Everything to get noticed at discotheques

The touch of imperfectionality on some naked truth.
It burns deep into the flesh of happiness,
Yet stands smiling at the laxity of frailty.
A drop of legality would have seared the ice.
Some degree of excess consciousness couldn't avail indiscretion.
So selfish I was, struck the baton to revealing.
Tore down the garment of wonderfulness.
If only it had wrath a shield against grievous consequences.
Strayed from the bareness of my palms, my cherished secret.
Caved in the passing-by of history, are acts and actions I adore.
Regrets bid me awareness but I annex consolation in satisfaction.
Springs of flowing emotions seals my loosed heart.
I'm hung to the persistence of negativity.
Sunk into contentions so absurd to gamble worth for kinds.
I am Lucifer the Prince of daemons,
which I command like a bunch of minions,
for with them, I annex realms and subjects
who are no more than heavenly rejects,
distinct from saints, the apples of GOD'S eye.
In Eden's garden I hatched my first lie,
then with man's fruitful multiplication,
I assigned cohorts to every nation.
Today I reign on earth like sovereign lord,
with a crown I usurped without the sword.
