Best Bedevils Poems

Man of melancholy - memories ashen and shadow gray,
heart harrowed, solicits solace from her psychic energy.
An offering, his woebegone weeping wildflower bouquet,
teardrops titian, sorrow scintillant, reflects rueful reverie.

Heart harrowed solicits solace from her psychic energy,
free falling through forlorn filigree, he mourns at her gravestone.
Teardrops, titian...

Prose coming down verse knocking verse everywhere 
Without a hair to care around
Cars parked on Boulevard drive never learned 
Can't  propel myself dispite my write
Flowers in the wind 
Nourishing reads my kin 
Poetics be my gin

Stop and stepping down falling first
Getting up in time...

Carriage drawn by four black steeds
Zombie coachman no blood to bleed
He is employed by Dracula
Who calls him fondly Tarantula.

Tonight he's on deadly mission
His masters suffering malnutrition
With fangs that ache, desperate for blood
He's practised in art of courtly love.

Tarantula picked up Dracula's date
Dressed to the nines...

A food fan sees a delicious cake
but not the caterpillar it is

A drunkard sees the nice beer
but not the poison in it

An adulterer sees the woman
but not the ring in her hands

An amorous woman sees the man
but not the consecrated priest

A power hungry ruler sees...

This compliment to this glory
Confetti! Confetti ! Confetti !
The prime of adulation
The resume of a new epoch
Sentiment of joy, prime of hope. 
To this reality betrothed itself to humanity
Confetti ! Confetti! Confetti !
Of this terrible happiness
Lies the unsearchable destruction
That begets divorce;
A testimony against this perfect...

A shadow falls across
the path he’s yet to walk;
like the one that follows;
torments, bedevils, then
all the lightness swallows.

A shadow falls across
his thoughts each day he wakes;
ebbed by evening’s booze,
which blow by blow spawns an
ever darkening bruise.

A shadow falls across
the doorway where he sleeps
on cardboard featherbed;
in...

Ensnared in greed’s deadlock
Where I can’t open the lock
To the barn in which kindness stock

That humankind in its hour of need
Longs to free its soul from the greed
That frustrates the compassion feed

To save humankind from self destruction
Embedded in the social malfunction
In need of urgent rehabilitation...

Beware! 
Because befriending beasts
Besets bad boys.
Being bad beguiles beautiful brides
But being bold bedevils bimbos
Brave bigots beseeches beliefs
But being a barging bard is being brief...

Hang in the den
When lions roam in wait
To snatch your serenity from Eden
Where the Devil’s threat 

Roams to pounce
On the dignity you espouse
In more bounce per ounce
To rouse and arouse

The Devil’s desire
Jealousy and envy
Fire, mire and ire
In a bevy of grit gravy and scurvy

Sent with...

Do youlike what i've written
are you thus faily smitten
with the meter and pace
not too slow, nor a race
does it travel to your liking
are the pauses so striking
you forget where you are
on the earth or a star
you do justice to me
that the rabble canst see
they would...

Every mother is a woman,
But not every woman is a mother.
Womanhood is by virtue of the sculptor's mould,
But Motherhood is a sweet-bitter Journey for special trekkers.
So I knew a man who was a mother,
And a woman whose door was shut forever, yet could boast of...

Comeuppance generated
desire to kill self awoke
resolution to make amends
bedevils this bloke
who deservedly receives just desserts
invisible hand doth choke
living daylights, hence
nightmare scenario I evoke.

Following objective forthwith
pained papa doth aim
constitutes feeble attempt made
to reach out and accept blame
reckless transgression
to spout warrants claim
if religious, thence within perdition

while still...

SINGED AND SIGNED BY SATAN

Hell follows me wherever I go
Flames singe me from far below
Satan  has spawned a thousand tears
A devil who has led me for too many years

I feel the devilish heat even in the cold
Because the demon who bedevils me is bold
He...

To wear or not wear a mask that is the question  found poems 

To wear or not wear a mask
Is the question
That bedevils the world
From Brazil to the White House
Ohio and Texas

The call has gone out
Wearing a mask 
Means you are a liberal weak...
