"Give me words,
Thousands of words,
I offer my kingdom for words
For
A poem I wish to write
Not any poem
But
A masterpiece of a poem!" The aspiring poet shouted, and
then in a lower voice added:


"Give me:
Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs,
Determiners, qualifiers, distributives, prepositions,
Infinitives, gerunds, participles.

Give me verbs:
Regular and irregular, transitive...

There Winter Lonely Fallows Deeply Dream


Long after that ripe golden sunset gleam
Cool silvery tones, wavering light;
Then winter lonely fallows deeply dream
Into the grayish ghostliness of night.

Far off, yet looming bold and strangely near,
Within starry heavens they are aureoled,
Forested mountain-ranges far westward rear
Their high guardian towers...

Magic of Cotton Candy
The day ends in soft sunset as it turns to twilight 
The moon’s visage shines at night
Illuminating the scene with its mysterious almost eerie blue light
Cotton candy childhoods’ delight

Is sold by the store
During the day above it birds will soar
Children and adults alike cotton candy...

Until His Red-Heart Weeps

In his forest, the Indian avoided the trappings of the white men;
There his footfalls upon soft and clean, untouched virgin ground;
A place where his tired soul can finally reach ever deeper within;
Nature then generously gifts him its wonderful, wilded sound!
Each morn, Big...

As you read this poem, I’m mentally undressing you.
Word by word your protests drop to the floor. 
Syllable by syllable I pare you down to honest flesh. 
Utterance by utterance, your secrets are revealed 
Until you’re nude, standing before me 
Natural and unembellished, so you...

Egyptian God
Amen - Ra is the God that my Egyptian zodiac says I am born under.
I took interest in the Egyptian zodiac for two reasons;
first because of the name Amen, and second because it predates the others by thousands of 
years.

Some faiths end their prayers by...

Latin Lesson
We'll start from the beginning
A little bit of Ah and Awe
Sound out the consequential consonants
Speak low? Speak up!
Don't forget to roll your R's!

First verbs in present tension
Know your diphthongs and declensions
Vocabulary, adjectives, et,  ad nauseam
That doesn't sound right
Did you forget to roll your R's?

Soon...

Higher Order Thinking
I never meant to be a Professor,
   to keep records,
   to rank,
   to judge,
   to preen.

A crow among peacocks,
   I record your scores,
      pretending they measure your skills.

The Truth Behind the Smokescreen
Staring at the stubborn facts
I stand face to face with a sneering fate
Legalized pot. Transitive 
Bondage sold as liberty
Man made destructive phase
Don't lie to us as if we're back at puberty

I see you Bobojan, hiding behind a finger
Trying to hide the initial figures
Beckoning with subliminal...

My Treasure Beneath the Tides
The murky rolling waves subject
to the whims of the February's wind, 
far above the secluded lighthouse;
the roaming aircrafts vanish through thick clouds,
leaving behind a trail of hazardous vapors...
but the geese and seagulls can't continue their existence!  

And still the sea offers them its promise,
a...

Guilty Pleasures
Girl, how many ashes of baked pictures have 
fought the scars you brew from affaire d'honneur
[our routinely arguments]?

Your sister heart fought the noisy lust
the untamed night hone on her shoulder
as she collect the dishes of mockery
& smashes it towards the fireman
that paints the tragedies of...

Spring Signifies Life In Some Inconceivable Aspect
Relished thoughts 
remain in cheerful hearts
not ridden by storms;
they protect them always
be it pain, or be it joy:
then, can spring signify life
in some inconceivable aspect
and promises excitement
for all and each one,
not walking the extra mile
and trip on stones that annoy? 
Ah, avoiding strides accomplishes none!

Do...

Median and Eucledian
Median and Eucledian

Sometimes when I will start to swerve;
Can avoid car when going around a curve;
There also is a mode, mean and a median
And curves in geometry they call Euclidian.

When I had added much more starch
I eventually straightened out the arch
And then I exhibited a...

My Personal Demon
The road opens out before me, full of promise, rapturous day.
Words hang like ripened plums, couplets flower in gaudy array.
Transitive and irregular verbs scatter about my feet.
Rhymes and rhythms fill my head, I smile to all that I meet.
The muse is on me and nothing...
