Premium Member The Pursuit of Contentment -POTD
Whatever the offerings of time may bring
Whatever song my heart chooses to sing
On life’s small pursuit I shall meditate
Elysian splendor around me, I appreciate
The simplicities of pastoral living unfurl
I’m graced in your stellar light, a cosmic pearl
Serene contemplation, moments well spent
A transcend of intellect, I...

Premium Member Mirage of My Saving Grace
The black-as-widow’s-weeds night of endless stars 
was so cold...
cruel as temperature 
plunged its frigid fingers feeling through my being
fondling my heart and soul without mercy
molesting me - taunting my will to live
and just when I thought 
the ice water in my shivering veins would kill...

Premium Member Letter to Sam Hunt
Dear Sam, hello it’s me, don’t fret
old friend whom I have never met.
I wrote a letter time forgot,
you may ask why, I ask why not?
A sad meditation of late
on our nation’s new police state -
its central thesis at its core
is blame the pimp and shame...

Premium Member Beauty of the Fall
A soft sentimental feel
Sitting before me in green
The colors are coming soon
The ones of fire
Those of eternal delight
And she will emanate
All the emotions therein
And I will possess
The greatest of these
Her love, of which grows
Towards my perfection
Within her light, and eyes
Of developmental sight
Only, but my own
Sees...

"The Queen's Slippers - Part 2"




There goes my heart
with bags packed
no turning back
or final wave
seated hooded next to huntsman
innocent, gauche, temperamental
There will come a time
to save,
but save oneself
on this dark road,
one must -
There will come a time
to talk, 
but walk the talk
on this dark road...

Ten Minutes That Didn'T Shake the World
TEN MINUTES THAT DIDN’T SHAKE THE WORLD

They seemed to talk only in metaphor  or simile
And in what they call   stream-of-consciousness - 
These two young women in the café overheard yesterday -
About something boring to the point of unconsciousness;

And a small athlete called...

Among its side effects, it is hallucinogenic.
More seriously, to the nervous system, it is...

Well shut my mouth you honey bee,
y’all come round for gab an tea

At end of day, when all’s bout done,
lain in the hay we’ll have some fun

Gurt deep we’ll think and spin a pun, 
shake a leg, you son of a gun

Well I’ll be damned...

Whats Wrong With Yours
my heart has a hole in it
so whats wrong with yours?
need tongs for sure
deep frozen ore
reach out when sore
selfish people stay silent
and it hurts even more
now I see your core
principles that run a school
cultures that make us tools
seemingly were confused
forgetting some golden rules
ratios for when...

CONTAMINATED PLANET

Coronavirus, well
If it's all like that ;
Well hell,

Don't touch nothing or (anything).!
The cycle never done;
Oops, spray your shoes, 
leave um outdoors, in the sun.!

Uh-huh those Muslims were right;
Ladies’ cover your faces'',  
Men and women pray

Tough Things Happen To Me : Executive Woes
Wow! As we would colloquially put it,
You are really one man of grit!
You seem to be the only guy
Who’s got no time even to cry.

Just imagine, in a day
Everyone wants to know your say.
You’ve got to speak, you’ve got to write –
Are you the only...

Premium Member Doctor Harold Shipman
With me, during my high-school-days, studied a little boy, 
His father was a doctor. This filled him with immense joy;
At his constant demand, once to his dad's study I went,
Seeing the skeleton, to my feelings, I gave vent; 
Inquired my friend; he said, oh, in...

Hough
It's called the Popliteal Fossa,
colloquially, the 'Hough'.

It is that sweet place behind your knee
that looks so like a boudoir pillow,
and yet becomes a tender hollow
when at rest.

A disguised beauty, but ever responsive
to my lips caress.

Such are the small things lovers
hardly ever mention with words
as they...

Post-Modern Blues
Been digging my heart. Into any art. I can get my. 
Hands on late-ly

Been feeling 
rough and down and 
Filled with fluff, incorrigible clouds, imperfect
like a do-pa-mine addicted white rat on his cheese
Meat, wine, and sugar, cigarettes not far behind, in pursuit of

Instant 
grat-ification
With colloquially...

A Is For Apple
Took knowledge in a logical way
Took out books starting with "A"
After a few months and a week
Wasn't even close to the "B's"
But I could tell you anything you wanted to know about aardvarks and artichokes

But I kept at it figurin I'll get there
Sat so long...
