Spying On Other Poets
Spying On Other Poets

On other poets, I am spying,
Politicians seem to be trying;
Must surmise,
Perceive lies;
Like telling stories and lying....

Your Spying Eyes
I caught you creeping around
with your spying eyes
Quick, furtive glances
betray your silent, stealthy movements
Human satellite camouflaging black cloud,
always in passing tear bursts,
secretly scans through a purse in my closet
Your dubious, devious actions
speak loud
Such churning, internal accusations
would make any insecure man proud
Furthermore, you compounded your fidelity...

fanciest binoculars I have ever seen
spying on neighbors, so far unseen
love seeing that Daddy kick out his screen
hiding now, not as keen...

Premium Member Spying On Santa
I saw red reflecting off winter snow
as I stared out the window on tip-toe.
And I'm quite sure that I saw Rudolph's nose,
but it could have been a plane, I suppose.

I couldn't see his sleigh amidst the shadows,
but I knew that Santa Claus always shows.
And then,...

Spying On Me
While quietly sitting down
In one of the benches in Central Park,
Bewitched by a Sunny afternoon,
I saw something moving fast/
I imagined it was a ghost
That found refuge under a shadow
Of a lonely tree still standing
In the middle of the open field…

For a moment, I thought
That it...

Premium Member Spying On Faeries
While they do their snazzy dance
I sit quietly, holding my breath, enraptured.
Marveling at their poise and their daintiness.
The forest is quiet, the slow pop of the embers the only sound.
It would be a great night to hear an owl.
The queen senses someone is about.
I am...

Premium Member Spying On the Ring Tails
There was a gang of ringtail weasels living down in the holler.
My mama knew it and said she would pay me a dollar
If I would go down and spy on them to find out their intent.
I told her I would do it if she paid...

Premium Member Spying On Others
I am sitting at the secretary’s desk, the biggest conference score.
I am a voyeur today, thirteen screens, show the playgrounds and the door.
Thirteen screens showing parental visitors moving to and fro,
Screens that feature students with their moms, a great big picture show.
I watch them in...

Premium Member spying on our dogs
The dogs are in their pen
We have a new video app where we can watch them
We look into Joe’s cell phone at their usual places
No dogs

Did they escape?
I turn the video camera to the gate
Long sigh as I realize it is still bungee corded shut
Buddy...

Trump Is Denying Trying and Spying
Trump Is Denying Trying and Spying

There are many new things Trump is trying,
That at the same time he is always denying;
Sit in sun;
Nothing done,
And wonder who next on he shall be spying.

The Fey Court of the Dead
Wearing green at full moons height 
Singing the song of fairy spite
As faeries dance in a ring
And as they sing their dreadful spell 
My head starts to nod,eyes heavy with sleep of the dead
My thoughts filled with the music of hell
I hear the shadows whisper...

A Beautiful Dance
I caught last night's performance though it wasn't meant for me
Thanks to Lily, Rose and Ivy for saving me a seat
Held in a private location far away from prying eyes
Reservations were not taken because it was not advertised 
Excuse my attire, I rushed straight out...
