Best Mandarin Poems
Mandarin RedWhat do I know of that young woman...
She never dared..and I was not allowed.
Hellion drained at last courageous
Holding on to remnants of electric beauty
Dying of neglect
Perhaps..in spite of duty.
And I suppose (to some sublime extent)
All that is known of her
Would make good kindling
Around suburban campfires...

Learn Mandarinas all the “elected” puppets congregate
with hands tied behind their backs
& marionette strings held in the hands of
corporate america (aka the global corporate),
they edge the tips of their toes along the
“fiscal cliff,” in order to force the
unfortunate citizens of the empire
boiling in the belly,
to tremble...

Teach 'Em MandarinKids today can't focus
Most have ADD
Forget about 'comprehension'
'Cat' and 'Dog' they can't read
Instead of essays, they write jigsaw puzzles
That's why on 'writing tests'
Just have 'em fill...

Two Mandarin Oranges Were Both Very Much In Love,Two mandarin oranges

and the sun was swallowed by great waves,
and these little oranges( who came from a tree-)
Danced together on a sandy beach,
(somewhere-)
and they were in love,
till a little girl, named "Death"
came...

Prose Poetry
Our Mandarin UniverseThe edges of an eclipsed
sun give birth in broken
shocks of light
to day love and life
We lift ourselves
to yawning
blades of grass near
an ocherous tree
raised by the mountains
beside us
Into an infinity
of yes as our
wings fall away

Mandarin CollarIt always makes me pain.
My mother’s scissors.
It’s an either-or situation
She cuts my old photos up into small pieces,
Or stir you into the mixture.
Whether or not it’s true
How could it interpret
These actions as love
Or the other kind of concession...

Mandarin Duck and Blue Jay RivalryMandarina duck was bragging a teensy bit
Blue jay heard of it, and threw a giant fit
She was speaking of her crest as if it was unique
I have a crest also, Bart the blue jay did speak
Mandarina duck preened, showing off her black and white trim.
I...
