The Lay of The Best Man - Part 4

I ask you this: Have you ever known a man to ‘buckle under stress’?
Or have you never seen a man have a ‘moment of madness’?
Have you not heard about the unfortunate Child Physician.?
Lynch-mob [illiterate] shout “Paedo!!”… at...

Look you for Matisse's Daughter?

The cat glides paw in the water.
It is glaring at three goldfish.
Jolly tulips are on left side.
The bowl with fish is on a dish.

Gawp at colors so bright in frame...
The cat glides paw in the water.
I guess the fish have fear...

Oh Guinness
Iced-sweats seep down her ebony skin-
this sexy number 8 needs a take-in.
while she gawp, i stared back
only to drool and hijack 
her, for her name is GUINNESS, my sole kin!...

Premium Member Gym'Ll Fix It - Written With Nina Parmenter
My middle aged spread is just spreading
So I thought I should join a new gym
Got to fit in my dress for a wedding
With some exercise I could get thin

I’ve got these new gym pants that sparkle,
And a t-shirt that flatters my tum,
I look like a...

In the Embrace of Mountains
Mountain soften the gawp of sun 
far beyond the boondocks, 
where the fog plays in stillness,
 ‘fore the banties arouse the glade
When life came to Bottom Land 
bare feet stomped common paths 
Between the tall oak trees 
echoes stood for seconds, 
as tiny voices cartwheeled...

Night Rose
Nights turning into morning
sun goes down, we come alive
two wounded birds, awaits the dawning
the days of our life

each night, afloat in my sphere 
you shoot athwart my dark sky
but life isn’t fair
the reason I cannot fly

some nights you’d appear as the blood-moon
to keep a lonesome...

Eiffel Shriek
My mouth is weak in gape
That night my eyes in gawp
The night of war in memory 
Horrendous ISIS brought Paris.
Horror! The world in anguish
Bataclan Theatre in despair
Before Eiffel shrieked in anguish
The dead, maimed, the innocents
The glints of Eiffel now in glitch
Begrimed! 13th of eleventh month
As...

Riot
I know we could make it.
You’re bashful; 
You grin with the innocence a temptress feigns,
Spouting out outrageous eyefuls  
Of an open garden gate.

Prodding thoughts that tiptoe up to high heavens
And crack down like lightening,
Like bodies from buildings when they hit cement;
You are the long-lost...

Retail
You hang on a rail
Poised in the window.
Flaunt yourself to passers by.

They gawp at you
Then walk on by.

You start to feel cheap
No one cares anymore
They want to swap you
For a newer model.

They move you to the back 
You've sunk to their level.

Few people try you...

STUPID GIRLS 
THINK THEIR ALL THAT

WHILST OUR PERSONALITIES CLASH

SO WHAT YOU GONNA DO

Bouquet Becomes Tourniquet
My memory endures a tourniquet
as it tries to forget, while holding blood.
It used to sport a bouquet
as it tried so hard to boast.

Bouquet becomes tourniquet.
A flow is held.
A part of me is throttled, my throat is squeezed.
It wants to loosen - but strangles.

Some things will...

Aquarium
Dim tunnels curve a segmented ocean.
Bat-winged feeding specters
browse glass. Scaly hulls
blow gas tanks. Rainbow skimmers
flick and soar.

A child’s sweet nose pressed
against a face so horrible,
bubbles of fear pop
in my brain.

Above us, jellyfish swim,
dendritic minds dangling.
tentacles of electric awareness.

Sharks circle waiting to be fed.
shark lovers, perhaps...
