The day started bright -

Bright Eggshell Blue
and ended in percussion
dark and cloudy stormed in
thunder pummelled drums
against a backdrop of 
bruised eggshell dijon yellow
sweating heavy sage green
spitting spoilt the swollen pride of purple,
a wet abrasion against 
Electric Blue 
crackling along her lips
like Lightening

Sizzled on...

Premium Member The Intelligence of Wasps
The wasps are back 
in full force
commandeering my porch
They do this yearly

They buzz my ears
terrorizing me
trying to chase me back into the house
so they can have the porch for themselves

I paid for the porch
not completely, but I am still paying for it.
not the wasps

I look...

The Wandering Yogi
??? ???? ?????? ??????

The Wandering Yogi 

From city to city, from every  town to town
Catching every smile to smile, every frown to frown.
His allegiance goes to the exalted one, not any nobility nor the crown.
The mysterious venture itself is a compass – forever trailing...

ANNOYING GAME

Annoying Game
Cheers
quite annoying
voices mutter
quiet chatter
huddled in confusion

Boring broadcasters
feigns excitement
children watching 
not so mellow drama

The curse preventing
Felix the cat's first act
more chatter accompanies 
horrible organ music.

Resounding cheers
Greeks speaks
plays called.
"he walks the bases "
on cleats.

Dinner is served
on T.V. trays
Uncle does not move
He sits on the throne...

DODOITSU 

(A MOSQUITO'S LAMENT)

THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB ©  

This sacrificial lamb starts
An aggressive night ensues
Mosquito’s ‘ding’ clarifies
Dinner is almost served!

TAKE COVER!  ©

I’m a prisoner trenched down
Under cover of ‘sheeted' white 
Less the incoming wine made
Mosquitoes blood bath!


DON’T SCRATCH!...

Premium Member Not So Friendly Discussions
Alfredo always abhorred angry approaches
After an amigo accosted after an argument
And, afterward, Alfredo abstained arguing,

Because blackening bruises betrayed blather
Berniccio blindly behaved better, bravely
Becoming brotherly before blasting bullies!

Carefully commandeering calmer Carlos,
Claiming cool comradeship courageously
Communicated clever candid conversations.

Dandified Darius decided daring dialogue
Dangerously divisive, declined discourse,
Deliberately discrediting dainty...

Exhaling the sunrise that fills the sky with colored

Split Second Glance
I smile at you when you aren’t looking.

The set of your mouth, as it furrows irresistibly

Commandeering your face into the desired degree

Of aloof concentration. Chin in hands, you rove about

A world I catch only in glimpses,

As it scintillates through the reflection in your incessant clarity....

A Bend In the River
The serpentine and ageless liquid
   mercurial possessed snake
eternally swallowed 
   since the beginning of time
   one unquenchable thirst to gorge and slake
slurping up an icy cold mountainous pebbly shake
   yet fresh as an irish spring

Demon In a Red White and Blue Cape
I'd rather be trapped in an elevator with Hannibal Lecter than be in the presence of Homelander


He flew inside a doom plane full of innocent people
He stop the terrorist from commandeering and high jacking the plane
The pilot was shot in the back of the head...

Fortune Cookie Maxim Minimizes Apple Macbook Pro Update Process
agonizingly dutifully didst wait
to distract anticipatory anxiety,
(analogous to an expectant father)
while protracted procedure promised
nothing short of a millennium

whereby echoing thru the corridors of time
olly olly gluten free ranging NON GMO, oxen
oiled lubricated cloven hoof
nsync cup aided toot tune to clacking choppers

Premium Member People Who Make Meetings Last
I am intolerant of people who make a meeting last two extra hours.
Asking inane questions that pertain to only them.
And of the leaders of the meeting who allow them to take over.
Commandeering the rest of us.
Some think I am rude when I leave at the...

God
There you are your the grandest,
The Everything, the propagandist,
The created not the creator
Manifested from the dictator.

I don’t believe in magic,
Nor bigotry from the tragic.
I don’t believe in fairy tales,
Those threats from all the scary tales.

Spread throughout like wild fires,
By preachers and beguiled liars.
Evolved in time...
