Dad looking at that weatherboard house, Old Tooters home,
A thrifty man.. us to him did his brother send,
Saying that the place could do with a mend;
The roof had red patches of pitted rust, the cost agreed, an aluminium spray, as if were new!
A bulge I...

Household Auction
Saturday and Sunday
Refreshments 

I must sell some family heirlooms from grandmothers attic,
there are many items, jewelry, glass, lamps, and some furniture;
but the most treasured item is a mahogany sideboard quite exquisite,
beautifully carved, and ornate with dragons and scrolls and gorgeous feet.

I noticed you arrived...

Mahogany Love
Come take a ride on my ebony thighs; 
Sink deep into my intoxicating velvet walls 
Envision black, brown, skin soaking up the moonlight 
Touch my lips, with kisses, hard and full of passion
Embrace the beauty, lust, love-taste the forbidden, this is ecstasy
As the moonlight wraps...

Looking at the scarp
Of the mahogany cliff
Cerulean tides
Calm down the racing mind thoughts
Offering a peaceful state

School Bus Mahogany
Do you ever stop to think that you're a bus?
No I don't mean a vehicle that would go to toys r us 
I mean an actual bus
Thats a representation of all of us
They stop at red lights 
In spite
Of fights
Lonely nights
A low kite
A repetitive life
Green...

Mishandled Mahogany
Stop
Shedding and sowing
Begin bracing for burning
In land of melting
Pots

Was
The crews parallax
Of the trees
Which conceives
The lumberjack to
Saw?

Timber!

Reviled
But adored due to bark,
Chopped down and chastised a log mark
Famine yet fervid mouth of hell,
“Rollways”, or “skidways”, dread logs dwell
Bide for a springtime
Deliver

Evil
And wicked “the drive”, a lake of...

Mahogany Rose
There's a mahogany rose that only grows, within this heart of mine, and can grow 
old if let outside, for its fragile to the flow of time. Frozen in my heart to see, to 
remember what once belonged to me, her love I thought would...

A Sepia Mahogany Tan Poem
This is my brown poem,
A sepia, mahogany, tan poem,
Coffe colored with cream poem,
A dark chocolate, caramel colored peom.
A sweet tooth, got to have you white chocolate poem.
Golden brown, sassy brown...a hot fudge sundae syrup
Dripping poem.
Hershey kisses chocolate, tongue tickling, teasing poem.
Spine tingling
Shivering
Shimmering
Brown poem.
Writing a brown...

Mahogany Wind
Unfolding your 
Paper mache wings
Greeting this
Reddish brown
Mahogany wind 
Yes, sweeping 
These golden leaves, 
Swirling you, again
Around this 
Pink carousel...

The Antelope and the Mahogany Tree
It looked lost and lonely, 
Probably searching for its kind, 
Will hope aid it to find? 
Its home seems to have been invaded. 

The tree is bare and naked, 
It displays feeble boughs, 
It seeks solace from its ambience, 
An ailing credence. 

They stand beside...

Onyx love’s healing

Amethyst heart within

Those thighs brown eyes face
Images of your neon love
Creating heaven can’t get enough...
