Best Incongruities Poems

*** NOMAD ***
(For Ian and Bryan)

The gifts just out of reach…Always?
Scoping the search?  
With the contentments 
Of peace to be found, 	
Buried like treasure…And
Hunted?

Beloved nomad
Seeking place
Among the ridges
Of the lost caves your eagles 
Scan horizons 
To discover, while watching 
    constantly...

I write to tell you of my life
But you compare meanings with dictionaries
And understand words
Think of this poem like a lover's fight
You told me if we quarrel I must not leave the bed
So I take it I must wrestle you until you yield
If you only...

Nostradamus  ician incantation once meet.
Informal inveracity of the ignoble sect.
Saviors stylish mercies sensed saving their necks.
Invariably today were imputed more adult.
Placing belittled Bibles on the very top shelf.
Next shelf implement the almanac.
Impending how arrangements tend to imbue.
Saviors sweet tune of the scented cock a...

Attendants

Attendants once were happy in the ancient mansion 
Made of sand and granite by the cliff
How fortuitous to be employed in these harsh times
Tending to the mundane chores and sober orders
The rule of life for functionaries is to fulfill the reasonable requests
I guess things must...

To fathom the disagreeable I've discerned
Is to not let your hostilities blow up much too rash
For life has it's many incongruities
That hide in plain sight like a cat poised to strike in the high grass 
When tempests are testing your infallibility 
To go on with...

Sarah, her two kids in tow
walks in a second-hand shop
for only a second, since she turned
her pocket inside-out yesterday
for a large box of rice crispies
and a half-gallon of 2% milk.
Her old man stopped beating 
her three months ago, 'cause 
Social Services was on him but
she...

When Virgins Emerge

Virgins dwell on celibacy when they emerge
Even though the agenda might stray to setting dynamite
To lighting candles, eating celery, and hanging everything in sight  
Displaying imaginary tiny toys and boys with strings and hooks
Around their necks as ornaments
Christmas trees come to mind...

Catch the latch under the thatch
Roof within the hut
In your village where you snatch
Every chance to balance the gut
 
That propels your vision
To embrace the trace of the future
You believe lies in the diffusion
Lying at the intersection of a culture
 
Dynamic enough to promote progress
Conservative...

We all know, “There are Angels Among us”
Appearing to us, in disguise
This is a little, poetic story
About an Angel in my eyes
 
At first she seemed, to be as normal
As any other, we may meet
But as she grew, I learned to know her
It was clear,...

Weeping the eyes out everyday
Wailing in every house all night
When will these have to stop?
What is so powerful
That even the king fear?
Anonymous creature
Breaking the lion hearts
O you taker of life!
What err has been done to you
For us to deserve these incongruities
Incognito serpent you are
Fiercer than...

'...with quenchless canvasses of twisted fire' - Mervyn Peake


Your vision was a beacon
gracing us with golden sheen,
your heart was dark and heavy
with redemption rarely seen.

You plumbed the incongruities 
of faithfulness and fear,
you challenged life's inequities
so often with a tear

of sadness in your dream-dimm'd eyes
and shades...
