Best Guest Of Honour Poems

The second day of the Chinese New Year
Tradition has it say
That the son in law visits 
His mother in law
Guest of honour on this day

She treats him like a king
When time to go back home
Gives him two lotus lanterns
One red and one white alone

Time of...

You who sexless heard the pounding of the sex
     nerves    conditioned to the tune
            through all the slushy push of distending flesh

The flag glides upward in slow motion.
Days have the lucky teachers rehearsed
For this honorable day of the country.
We, children have sung until we go hoarse
No matter it was a sunny or a rainy day.
Rehearsals went on, missing classes and plays.

Yes, the great day is here...

"What does light have to do with darkness!?...."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Like mixing champagne miscreants

Within a simile laced frosted glass

Of crystalline stones mingling these

Crowned guises....

Fatidities of peremptory phantasms

Oracular silhouettes of the predisposed?!

Rising in unison unto a collective toast

Toward deceptives destiny; their very own

Whisperings billowing within ceramic tones....

These phantoms of...

Can it be as hard as this?
A struggle of thoughts and feelings arises,
Not ever seeing a resolution,
Assessing the options that offer perhaps a brighter existence,
Weighing every pro and con against the alternative but always considering other’s feelings,
If we only had unlimited resources available,
Then all would...

Who will be the Master of ceremony?
When all planets come to celebrate together
Bells ringing without pause
Telling a story far beyond imagination,
To create palpable feeling,
And incite the search for greater wisdom

Who will be the Master of ceremony?
When change finally leads to eternal change
Who will be the...

First rhythm to the beat:
Being honest
Next guest of honour:
Purpose
Following the morning after:
Self-awareness and courage
Break for freedom:
The musician strikes a cord

And echoes the universe it's glorious Love song...

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : XIII

If you pull a lean long face
Each day in fear of the next Saturday
Time to tone down High C voice in Elysée Palace
Yellow Jackets are closing in on the Champs Elysées

Then if you insist on pulling that lone...

Here he stands, Edwardian vogue, sometimes with his spats, 
sometimes with his brogues below his dungarees. With rounded collar points and tie, and jacket donned below this flying suit, his waste is tied with simple rope, knowing this, or any flight, could be his last....

  Farewell! Farewell!
It’s time for my closing verse.
  How long the years
that bless and unkindly curse,
  till in a black wagon
  our sorry ars-e draggin’
we get to flat ride in a hearse

  Goodbye! Goodbye!
Father, we buried you today
  in...

On the third level, the revelry had ceased,
there was a great peace,
here, in the communal gardens,
a calm, joyousness descending,
a few people already resting,
on the grass, they lay,
the Tigress,
here to meet the Dark Man.
such quiet solitude touched her,
the gardens, good for the soul,
all the songs of...

May my poems in their entirety 
live on beyond my notoriety.
  But I sure don’t wanna
  be the guest of honour
at the Dead Poet’s Society!...

The Rebel Lives On

It was a Black Sabbath night when they turned his remains into the sea

          ‘Lost into the darkness I fade into the light’ 
 
Friends and family wore Deep Purple gowns and mauve...

I spent my day shopping for rubies,
with an aim to buy thousand of them.
I went from shop to shop,
collected all of them.

Back home carefully,
I laid all of them.
Made a list of all I knew,
sent a picture to all of them.

So many rubies I had,
everyone was...
