Best Baneful Poems
Oh Baneful Yellow MoonOh baneful yellow Moon in fullest rounded sphere,
Bright as Summers Buttercups in abundant yield,
Coldly riveted upon Winters beaten, thin silvered panels;
Thereof: By ye mighty hammer doth great thoth wield!
For what fearful trowel gouged out thine far flung valleys
Whilst piling high upon yon monstrous heights?

The Baneful Sonnets DoomDark energy spreads ink across the universe,
dripping scarlet liquid fated by black magic.
As the wheels spin poets' necromantic verse,
dark energy spreads ink across the universe,
and trumpeting angels’ mighty blasts rehearse.

marooned, and furloughed ready for pall

impregnable prepubescent wall
still extant scads of decades since
complex edifice erected to force tall
permanently leaving me unmoored,
marooned, and furloughed ready for pall
bearers to spill soil upon my
then emaciated stick figure overall,
an unlovely bag of bones
stripped of flesh,
sans unseen deadly parasites,

The Crow's Baneful MoonTwo crows spoke indigo black
One to the other at the graveside bleak
Sharing the begotten woe as they did clack
Perched over the fading epitaph did speak
In the sorrowful caws of the death knell toll
Sharing the begotten woe

Baneful StudiesRecreated for this new era
I stand high with all mockery laid to rest
Obtained by these doings
I shut my eyes never to see

This forsaken truth now brought to the table
Your last tear has hit the floor
and now you...
