Musings On Shakespeare's Sonnet 73
Some parts of life are permanent,
alas, some aspects not:
The morning temperature feels chill;
by midday it grows hot.
The money spent on cell phones'
long-term value which I sought,
Too soon is gone, as more is spent
on upgrades I've since bought.
The sun in its celestial course
yields light, black night,...

Shivering Squirrel (Winter of '73) For James Marshall GoffWhat am i doing
I'm a squirrel in the cold
I should have listened to my mam
And done what i was told
But not me you see
I wanted to go into town
To look for nuts and goodies
Until a strong wind blew me down
I fell into a corner
All white...

Copla 73 Invocation This Bad Guy WorldCOPLA 73 INVOCATION: This Bad Guy World
Flit through Khayyam’s magic lantern
Or be nudged on chequer boards by
The Unseen Hand
One thing’s certain dark hands beckon
From behind barred doors – ask not why:
Sealed by No Man
Only an extra-terrestrial
Experiment requires this:
Not Evolution
Would the Maker put on trial
To ensnare...

Dramatic Monologue
Class of 73 and 74Three long years ago
I first entered these marbled walls
Now with glory and honor pride
Intervened in me we go down in history
On through the day we celebrate
All those electives
We forget our enemy's our foes rejoicing now in love
And ignore bitter's hate
As we walk across the...

Sonnet 73: 'The Agon of a Love Thrown Out, Debased'The agon of a love thrown out, debased,
Doth wound as deep as deeply ever could
It cuts across the veins in my pump based
And turns my heartfelt words to dull, dry wood.
It is a blinding shadow hid in wit
That thinks, by...

No Title, Yet - 73I’d never really worried about meeting someone,
But the day that I met Selma, I understood why.
Everything about her told me that she was the one,
So I wasn’t about to let the chance pass me by.
No matter what the result was going to be,
I had to...

Being 73My earth defined days are counting fast,
So if one, by chance, let friendship waste;
For sure, the memories we have will last,
Because past won't change or be erased.
Even though in thought we have retraced,
We'll be viewed as remnants of our past.
Because past and present are interlaced,
And...
