A Rattlesnake In Georgia
Metamorph Revision

To the herb garden meandered
   Some squash needed picking
Gloved hands and a six inch long blade
   No thoughts of snake sticking

Rockie our Rat...

Adamant Face
My mother used to say with an adamant face, "There is a place for everything and for everything a place!”
My goodness, this house is a total disgrace"

So every Tuesday at quarter past 4:OO
each person in our family had the same chore,
to straighten the house...

Into my general path with a low voice.
Included are profound love and rejoice.
There will certainly be no lyrical illusion.
Simply a breathtaking, supple inclusion.

In the same vein as a delectable sweet.
She brings joy and a soft, cherished beet.
This involvement encapsulates her well.
In the bliss of my...

All these muffled mumble mouths are farting gas,
with a less complex range than an enslaved ahss,
inspiration sadly discarded as they spas,
the rap I grew up with is a thing of the past.

Talent? Witch please, mumble's a disease,
contracted through the legs or the knees,
they don't bounce...

Tea party's house entertainer
Is speaker complainer Boehner
Citizens are strained
Anger's hardly contained
But he's on a right wing retainer


Author's note:  Gerrymandered congressional districts have brought us house neo-cons who answer to some very foolish people.  Now, these folks will stop at nothing to make their...

We're all ingredients in the humanity stew
The sad clowns
The prescription abusers
The chickens running around without their heads

This dish can never be out done
It's killing me
Ashes from Pompeii
The braces of teenage heart throbs

Bloody black and blues from abusive relationships
Fill the pots and pans
A homemade meal per...

Keith was a conjurer of great skill and could do almost anything, 
And so he did what he was told and gave great power to the King. 

The King it seems had always felt that turning things to gold with a touch, 
Would be just...

...a tribute to British novelist and illustrator
Mervyn Peake, and his trilogy, 'Gormenghast' 


Behold his birth, a brand new Earl, 
the Guardian of the Halls of Groan! 
yet 'til he reach the age of seven 
his father Sepulchrave will own 
the ritual and the royal robes...

the step towards values and conditions relate to the opposition in the coloration of the spectrum of a rainbow over the sunny clouds to bright and the percentages are in fact the lethal amount of relation and point one time after another and takes the...

Many people have houses that are filled up with ghosts
And the problem they cause is the huge shortage of hosts
For there aren't many willing to tolerate that
Which is where I ride in with my ghost buster's hat.

It was long, long ago when I started to...

As I pull out my retainer
And put it in the container
I am ready for bed
And I lay down my head

I hope to dream of you
Every thought of us can come true
And in my dream
Everything is what it may seem

I want this dream to come true
And...

For I knew I had no escape route to take.
My adversary had succeeded this time in his assault. 

To my redeemer I turned to.
To Jesus I faced once again.

My saviour, who I had wounded once more. 
My advocate, whom I had scorned and disgraced through...

eating a tangerine

the skin is decisively breached 
sweet juice runs and then
out wafts Christmas long past
here in the midst of August.

the lilacs are gone
retreated back into
their branches to wait 
for the tinge of spring

lily leaves droop 
after giving their all
pushing forth splendorous scents 
from walled...
