Best Lilliputians Poems


Premium Member Showdown
The Lilliputians are out playing ball
   Enjoying the fresh air of late Fall
When storm clouds roll in
   Hulking Gullivers, wearing wide grins...

A Gull warns 'em, 'Fun's over, guys.'
   'Cos the  court belongs to us now
But the Lillis brace...

Hard Decisions
People find tough decisions hard to make
But each involving choice has its reward
That supersedes the price of the sacrifice,- 
A deserved prize that the soft cannot afford.

A lot of will is required to oppose
The urges that entertain the body,
The thrills that tempt the frail soul
That...

Daylight Savings Time November 6th 2016
Hour hands clock back sixty minutes of Autumn
Round about this same of month every year, what a bum
er, and inconvenient truth diverged from this chum
purposelessly manipulating a hold over

a sensation of jet lag (with earth in the balance)...

LEGAL ROMANCE

Law, 
Let me plague you 
With the infectious love of my heart.
Now that I bear the aftermath of your infections,
And your cold blood boils in me 
Like a volcanic eruption,
Let me make babies in the factory of your womb.

My amorous cuddlesome arms
That carry a...

WINDFALL

  the sturdy gong
    brisk breeze of anemones

   frangible leaves whisk about

For Stephen Keshi
How come Stephen,
When do you forget defence?
Why don't you hack death with your golden boot?

Do not disappoint me,
Do not let me down Keshi,
Your crown is medal-made;
Roam not with  lilliputians
Whose blazer is calico
Whose utensil is mud
Whose bread is shaft and husk
Whose shelter is raffia...

But dwell...

Travails of Life
I traveled with Gulliver in his travails
Often times involving in shipwreck- 
Or becoming prisoner of the Lilliputians of life.
I sailed on the ocean of life-
Getting marooned on an island called strife.
I must live; but life someday I must leave.
I thread this path with none to...

Argh Daylight Savings Time – March 14th, 2021

Once again, yours truly
dishes out his regular dose
of literary gobbledygook
even Count Dracula
would not even bat an eye
nor give me his evil,
(albeit harmless) look
regarding feeble effort I undertook.

Don't forget hour hands 
of clocks spring forward
sixty minutes 2:00 AM on
Sunday...

Kids Stuff



Children will believe anything

In talking animals
And moons made of cheese
Fairy castles
With shinning knights
And magic doors
Secret gardens
Dwarfs and Trolls
Evil kings and Evil Queens
Snow White dreams
Arabian Princesses
Warlocks and Witches

Yes children will believe in anything

Mermaids and cities beneath the sea
Great monsters
Unicorns and Dragons
Kids are so easily lied...

Premium Member This Dereliction
A Nation, wearied, sapped traumatized.
This vast exotic land, fringed by lush emerald jungles 
A spark rising from the west, once looked upon by all,
A giant? 
No, faded glory. 
Vistas of burning star and torrential rivers  
Once revered, now a derelict of crumbled epitaph ...
