Best Douglas Poems

Below a Douglas Fir tree one beautiful moonlit night
I sat there with my Missy as we viewed a lovely sight

The aurora borealis was lighting up the sky
Then something to my right suddenly caught my eye

A gem from outer space tore across the cobalt blue
Leaving behind...

Wind, word, sail
The helm is turned
On the oar of the tongue
Against the tide of laws
The righteous cause
Will its litany and prevail
O could the dock
Materialize again
Out of the euphoria of the brain
O could not relay of metered sound
Measure out spoon by empty spoon
The empty wait
And the...

One more senseless mass homicide 
   twas the sole arbitrary aim
as a former student nonchalantly 
   sauntered empty hallways 
   seconds preceding blame
brazenly intent to maximize total killed 

   matter of factly telling...

On the tall table
Resides a small Christmas tree
With a Santa hat
When his eyes open to show
The vacant stare of plastic...

It's a little too late,
To say what I wanted to say,
Because of your fate,
It was a sad and depressing day.

It was the day they told me,
The day you were gone,
I could not see,
I could not go on.

Cried for hours,
Held my friends close,
They took what was...

She had the cleft of Kirk Douglas.
It was decidedly brilliant on her.
It fit her mind and her attitude.
I watched it talk along with her mouth.

Where had she gotten such a cleft?
It is rare to see these days.
It was more fashionable in the forties.
I wondered about...

A repetição, 
junto com a aptidão
desde tempos imemoriais
criam a arte e o pão.

A Repetição respeita você 
já a aptidão, 
respeita as pessoas próximas.

Para produzir resultados extraordinários
sob todos os tempos, 
coloque a repetição 
e a aptidão acontecendo juntas.

Fabulous fame and fortune would be your attainment
as you became a household name in entertainment.
We would see you on television five days a week.

Kirk Douglas 

Today we heard we lost Kirk 
Who never needed a shirt
Always a lovely flirt that Kirk
 Joining Moses in heaven
Who we watched in the movie way past eleven 
Hopefully God enjoyed their sound stage cheese
and now he is at peace 
Yes, we lost...

Douglas Murray 

On various YouTube programs
I have taken an interest in his opinions
about Islam in Europe, and I share 
his pessimistic opinions 
He is a person of great interest
always well groomed
it appears he spends most of his 
time in various hotel rooms, preferable
near a mirror, adjusting his tie
His vanity...

He was very tall, he stood six feet five.
He died too young, he couldn't survive.
He wrote "The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy" and some episodes of "Doctor Who".
Dying at the young age of forty-nine was tragic and that's certainly true.
He died nearly a quarter of...

It was in Argentina
That Bull met Clementina:
The same year dumped Tina,
Who’d thought herself A Winner’
And was planning “A Dinner”
In Hotel De Cortina…

Clementina was in Fridge
And still Bull left for Cambridge:
Escape from Blown-Up Bridge?
The Much Elusive Partridge
Outwitting traps in farms ridge…

Bull was to meet a Rita
