Take 1:
Too much beauty is a problem,
So the pretty women say,
Many women can be threatened,
Mood swings like a pendulum
Never trusting in ‘fair play.’

So it hurts when they dismiss you
Best to not give you a chance,
You might try to steal their boyfriends,
Smugly now your  faults...

A Golden Calf came through our old town for people to worship whether deft or daft.

If anyone impedes this Olympian flame in disporting procession coming from this flawed 

home (like all ours) of demos kratos - Greece will save itself if it be true to...

I layeth within walled morals of enduring convictions to coexist and be,

There's magic
In the air
See how the scenery is changing before our 
Eyes. It has a silvery, shimmering, and a 
Beach wave flow as if it is coming on to
Shore. If you watch it it's hypnotic.
It's changing the forests fabric.
This is a nightmare.
There's magic.
Sir, are you...

Thru a paroxysm of tears...

I inconsolably wept a river of sorrow
starkly aware alienated daughter(s)
implacable woe sundered fatherhood
yesterday, today and tomorrow.

A series of unfortunate events
(move over Lemony Snicket)
set in motion since my birth
unleashed impotent scrawny infant
registering 3,000,716,593 third
baby born on planet earth
swaddled emulating uterine hearth.

Oblivious to...

Written By Marcel Ike Okonkwo


Under the sound of the Ekwe Nimo
In ancestral groove
One hears the dale and might
And songs of our ancestors
In a land of rich cultural heritage.

Nimo, the land of great heroes where star guides 
And tender moon abides, 
And where the art in...

The dress she wore had a tear
She ran up the stairs
To change into something ordinaire
For the country fair...

Butterflies dance in mid air
Watch them you'll see them twirl,
And swirl.
There's two, some times three which makes this
So far from ordinaire.
Nothing can compare
As the wind helps the butterflies whirl.
Butterflies dance in mid air
Watch them you'll see them twirl
As they go through our thorough fares of...

Two holidays extraordinary
    bookend a day - simple, ordinary
  How is that unfortunate day viewed
    sandwiched between the other two

  Well, strange as it may seem
    and believe me, this is no dream

Lovers with a Star Cover


I'd love to see a shimmering you, 
With a sheet draping your generous thighs!
A colossal glass of vin ordinarie,
Mirroring a glittering, starry, stupendous sky.

We'd both be overcome with jubilance,
You sip that vin ordinaire with naughty eyes
Both of us drawn to each other,...

Clint's an iffy fellow, tis prestige vs the ordinaire, my dear plain Jane--hmm, partially accommodating. 

Methinks you're a drop-off, my dear, picture a car dropping you off curbside while he goes looking for a fictitious parking space, but a gentleman he is uses the factual...
