Best Superfluity Poems

Once long ago there was a clear blue sky
Where roamed free bird and butterfly
That’s when came the idea to super citify
And to pollution creators deify
All put their brain power to diversify

Silenced anyone who dared go awry
Soon mile high skyscrapers did gratify
And every square inch did...

Hmm...What Discursive Poetic Theme Shall I Write About...

Today (a rather brisk, chilly,

tend plot of Earthen surveyed terrain
situated over scat
herd modest suburban tract,

urbanely sprawled out) at

Potawatomi language,
says Robin Wall Kimmerer,
does not verbally divide us into masculine and feminine.
However, unlike most English verbs,
Potawatomi verbs distinguish between animate and inanimate objects.

For example,
we use sit down
when speaking to an unruly son
and set down
when speaking of what we did with a stone
or a book
which...

Posthumous Limelight

My boy, a young lad, died fighting the Iraq war. 
It could be any war, could be my son,
Your son or anyone's son, what does it matter?
All wars are same, all sons are same.
A lot of decorum, a lot many bravery medals
Came posthumously.
His name...

Sanctified to serve the Lord...

There sailed the good ship vanity,
Named after the gentle dame,
And everything to board her deck,
Was indeed, most vain.
From the captain to the cook,
And all those they took,
From England to fair, sunny Spain.
The Captain was sir Beautiful,
Known to be most dutiful,
And everywhere he'd roam,
He had with...

The production of godly living
means to put filth and sin away

but not just to hear these scriptures only

plush cars
five course dinners
wine and women
fat wallets
superfluity and loss of appetite
celebration of life

non cognizant with 
the other side of life:

faded hues
muffled voices
slime and dirt
growling bowels
search for morsels in the refuse
disease and death

hues fuse into each other
lines crisscross
making an amorphous mass

thus the merry notes of the...

The structure, or plot, of a poem is, in my opinion, like the melody in music. It's what holds the words together and keeps us reading...

But a poem is still a song even if no...

Vexation at self - regarding avoidable altercation...

Today May 12th, 2021
at Royersford (Pennsylvania) LIDL,
when spouse stepped into checkout line
(minus her horse drawn grocery cart -
pushed courtesy yours truly).

While passively standing stock still
I (think Stonewall Jackson)
let scenario unfold before
mine myopic eyes,
whereby acquiescing
nonverbally attempting to scooch
closer to conveyor...

bounty beauty in my many broken places.    

faulty connects in superfluity of nothingness.

and at first twas a cuddle 

but now!

even to my face!. 

sharper than the razor of a blade,

THE PEN, THE POET & THE POEM

Perfect picture painting a Poets palava,
And divisible dimensional dilemma:
Like a child surrounded by teddys & toys
To make a confusing costly choice;
Loose the pen & play the pipper,
Or choose between the pen & paper.
My pen I choose, though words reside...

GREATNESS

A term few truly understand
And the scarce few that comprehend
See in its stead an ephemeral belief
More a fantasy than a reality
Laughing at the audacity a being would possess
To even spend time to think such possibility

A feat born of decision and desire
To do more and to...

Alas, my wife, your verbose superfluity
Displays an obstinate incongruity
It's just word play hide and seek
Be succinct when you speak
Ok—you're a pompous ass in perpetuity!
