Best Mare Poems

In ghostly dreams the horse will come
And feed on my forbidden cereal
Meant for my recalcitrant healing
That filly came a-prancing stealing

O shrouded mare so misted white
Thou bleakest horse ,this blackest night
Untethered and untied
Noble creature -"NOT"- I cried

A pallid stare through tousled mane
Treads the core of my...

Wind sock kites can be seen along the beach
Couldn’t afford one; always out of reach
     Until that Wednesday
     When one got away
“Please, Mom, let it be mine,” I did beseech

No other kids were in sight on the...

The Night and the Mare.  

There is a horse,
and he is running.
A wooden carriage, 
strains his back. 
Bumping and grinding,
it trails the horse, 
both dashing along the sun drenched path. 
Dark passengers his cargo, 
they fly into the face of the sun.  
They...

Friends and foes of flesh and bone from me they have flown 
A different company I keep in reveries of twilight sleep
When night’s dark blanket does fall, I begin to hear their call
Carriage wheels creak, horses shriek, I look, but dare not speak

Some appear restrained;...

I miss you most 'twixt dusk and dawn
Wondering where you might have gone
Like Little Bo Peep
I'm stuck counting sheep
Thinking of you with nothing on...

The Mare and I

Georgia on my mind, I remember a song the sweetness of America, 
I have never been there but once I was in Huston, Texas, my ship 
was there for repairs. I rented a car and drove deep into 
the countryside which was...

A thing that is vast, but somewhat obscure.

Full of wonders, there is no doubt to be sure.

Glistening blue under the daylight sky.

You dream of seeing it and traversing it, but why?

Over its horizons, many lands can be seen,

Its wonders a mystery and its beauty serene.

Full...

Mare Nostrum
On the coast of Augusta, in Cecilia this wonderful sea,
 the bluest of turquoise, transparent and I saw fish play. 
Blood and bloated corpses have made the sea less pretty 
and fish nibbles on cadavers of those who tried to cross 
the sea to...

Death assured, the shame of hanging
Teardrops, sighing as we say goodbye
Like departing lovers;
Murder is committed
Though couched in legality
”Though shall not kill”

For the freeman is not free
Whose life and in death
Is a TV soap opera


The people shall shout

Like the Jews during Christ’s trial
’Crucify him; crucify him.’...

Each child needs time to stand
To make his connection
Riding on back to Medusa
Making faces I gave to you.

If you are eating your chips
You are wasting trouble
Remember counting is going backwards -
Don't look at me like that.

One for you - he has one.
You two work it...

She walks through darkness with sullied grace
In negligee sewn with silk black lace
Her hair it falls down as autumn red
She’s with pagan rites of us to wed

Let us slide the deep shadow of doom
And I’ll ride the mare upon the dark moon
We’ll hide like angels...

Tight like
coffin,
black like
nightmare...
The coffin-maker likes his black tight
wagon, driven by the mare at night....
