Best To The Highest Degree Poems

We haven’t been formally acquainted 
Though your words now travel in me
A picture of harmony you’ve painted
Love truest, in the very highest degree

Trouble in the midst, but don’t stress
Look into the windows of the soul
Therein you’ll find your happiness
Where two parts become a whole

Partake of...

Shadiness adores you
Bleakness is exhaustin’

Now, I’m so fatigued and my volume is set way low
Because you tore me down with social media craze…
You were there just for the temporarily show…you know…
Buy me black and blue flowers for the grave of my old ways…
2016 – my...

Sweet as Christmas candy cane 
She takes away my pain 

Embellishes low spirts 
Then she’ll crystallise the rain 

With care, wraps up my anguish 
Topped off with festive bow 

Ensures there’s room within her inn 
When I have no place to go 

She jingles my...

Let me take a little sip
Of your blessed, breathtaking brilliance that will numb...
This pain I have in this heart of stone
The voices in my head won't leave me alone
I thought I was on my own, but I was wrong 
I was wrong...I belong all along...all...

Poetic Encryption Like Ancient Egyptian

This terror and threat to poetic clarity,
Becomes a pet rock for some poets.

Words do count for sure, but so does
Clarity unless poets put a mask on.

Encryption can be used to mask 
Certain vatic pretensions that poets
Harbor, at times, when waxing eloquently
About...

Agony be to society's demise
Labels are for fools, not for the wise
Play the familiar tune of in-unison serenity 
Fatality won't come any time soon, thankfully...

Homeless people were on the news not to long ago...I weep in anguish... 
I'm tattered and torn in long-term grief because...

Here we are fans this fine summer day,
to watch Trash Can Cats, versus Downtown Stray.
The field is grand in this deep wooded glen,
pitchers are warming up in the bull pen.

Pitching for the Cats is Crazy Legs Lynx,
his pitching fast and usually sinks.
Throwing for Strays is...

“Unicorns are Us” 

You can only imagine
the furore 
when magick
hit the score
the Party, not impressed,
was not for witches
too big for their
britches on brooms,
said all the high-brow
cultural dignitories
and low-strung 
toad hall politicians
pacing around the room;
so all negligible necromancers
and sullen she-devils transformed
and became the beautiful untouchables
quietly soft...

To honor my grandson Adrian Michael
Apollo resides secretly even before he breaths life,
Determining what this special seed could blossom to be.
Receiver on a champion football team, youngest to ascend to the presidency,
Individuality immediately seen but his strength adds to an already strong family,
Anticipation of his...

Maui

Private pristine beaches engage with the sea
Elevate one's senses to highest degree.
White froth from the waves on the light golden sands
Is spread out as if snowflakes, etched by God's hands.

The azure and teal sea reflected from sky
Where white misty clouds drift quite aimlessly by.
Enchantment surrounds...

(continued from, "An Epistle Warning against Melancholia: an Allegory--Part I," where somewhere in late 18th-century Europe a friend, Laetitia, by way of a letter warns her beloved girlfriend, Euphoria--a young, gay and unsuspecting mistress--against the almost inevitable seductions of the infamous and maundering philanderer, Melancholia.).


Melancholia’s...

Like a Phoenix, I rise up from the ashes of my past 
Your beautiful tune mended the Earth with exquisite mirth 
Like a runner, I'm running forward to the finish line oh so fast 
You're a butterfly, wrapped in her cocoon...you're more than what you...
