Best Consul Poems

In twenty three, we waved goodbye to much celebrity
But in the clouds the welcome party takes them three by three
Tina Turner, Jerry Springer, Mister Donald Trump
(Of which, one is poetic license; please don’t get the hump)

Before the Lord, upon their knees, they had to state...

After booking for a consul-tation,
The doctor prescribed medi-cation,
But when I stood on a rake,
Then stepped back on a snake;
That’s what cured my consti-pation....

HERE'S TO CHARLES MARTEL
By Roy Merritt

Here's to Charles Martel he's a hero after all 
He kept Europe safe for Christians 
When the Muslims invaded Gaul
He beat them at the Battle of Tours 
And forced them back to Spain
And made them wish they'd never done that...

Resistance On The Iberian Peninsula

“Liberté, égalité, fraternité (Liberty, Equality, Fraternity),”
Scream French revolutionists as they guillotine monarchists heads, 1
Then crown Napoleon Bonaparte Emperor of France, 2
Who commands the French forces in wars raged across Europe.

The Grande Armée has defeated the ‘Fourth Coalition:’ 3, 4
And in 1807,...

HORSES

Knight of a famous land wanted a best horse for warfare
To buy, along with loyal consul, he landed in horse-fair
Many were on display, but one superior struck his sight
Bay coat, brown muzzle, coronet, fetlock in legs white
Measured from the withers , stood robust long and...

I was placed by my peers as a Consul of Rome,
Teeming city it was that I'd always called home.
My fair wife was a slave I'd seen fit to set free,
But she chose to instead make a husband of me.

The gods seemed to smile upon us...

prince of downtrodden
the carpenter saved your life
when you were thirsty

faraway consul
made your life a living hell
but you saved his life

the chariot race

you could not save him...

Villanelle: The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – 9

Turn the other cheek kneel while kith and kin wail
Would that faithful followers step in between
Resort to arms in months when Yin blazes trail

Whose advice the Essene monk took in travail
Whose voice the Consul heard to nail the...

Spiritually I’m daily in the devils crosshairs, sending thoughts to me, result? Confusion.
Every time I am by myself, I know he’s going to be intruding.
Knowing my earthly nature he’s feeling pretty secure.
I’m aware of him 24/7, so with me he’s has no power, and surely...

San Francisco
Presidio Terrace
Where new home sat.
My father 
Peruvian Consul,
Myself 
A two year old
Brat.
Wobbly I walk
Childish noises 
My talk,
The challenge were
The stairs.
How can I roll down
Belly side 
Slide dive
Until I hit the ground?
Never dove alone
Down the stairs
 My consulate home.
Bright light
Holy Child 
Open arms
Guarded my way.

The Great Mahele

The Hawaiian islands were overwhelmed,
In the year eighteen hundred forty-three,
Hawaiians were prisoners, promptly held,
By Captain George Paulet a Lord he'd be.

Constraining the islands for his monarch,
Accusations formed by Richard Charlton,
The islands British Consul a...

Today I cried,
It was because I had lied,
She had something to ride,
Yet I had nowhere to hide,
That’s why we now collide.
It was as soon as I married her,
That she bought a car,
I tried to be at per,
She was being called Madame, yet no one called...
