Flesh of his people tearing from the bone,
The soul seeps as the devil feasts for the heathonous shall moan ,
For the King of the wicked shall set on his throne,
World left burning with a chilling tone,
Gifts for the vile for he who sleeps
To the wickedest of wisdom that turned them to sheep
For the mother and children were left alone
For the clock that had broken shall turn them to stone…
Delectable dreams of sweet treats
chasing after the ice cream truck.
Lunge for that strawberry eclair,
fast like your life depends on it.
A street’s dead end cul-de-sac meets
flavors that leave children awestruck.
At three each day they wait aware,
warms days they’re eager to commit.
Anxious to hear that rhythmic blare,
soon they’ll taste that banana split.
Aroma wild, Rosemary
Lamb shanks and onions
Carrots, bay leaves, potatoes,
Ample garlic cloves
Add origami
Pita Bread
Wow!

The Chocolate Baker is a lady of stature so grand,
She bakes the best cookies and cakes over the lands.
Other bakers dishes are tasteless and utterly bland,
Sensationally goodness are the works from her hands.
Miraculous wonders from her oven every day appear,
Close to my palate her talents have become very dear.
Cakes, brownies, fudge, puddings and chocolate pies,
Scrumptious delectable aromas bring tears to my eyes.
As Chocolate is a part of my menu almost every day,
Living near the bakery would be a wise choice I’d say.
So a house I found with a little effort and a bit of labor,
Now the Chocolate Baker, a grand lady is my neighbor.

Most Delectable You
In a shower, beneath a rainbow
waterfall of colors,
So beautifully, radiant are you!
I adore watching my Adonis soap his
enticing, glistening dewy skin.
He's so hunky and hypnotic,it makes
my head spin.
He's a delight to my soul and the joy
of my days and nights.
That slippery soaped, olive-skinned god.
The quintessential~love of my life.

I once had a lover who could kiss
with luscious lips I would always miss
who had big blue eyes
and long firm strong thighs
who was a most delectable dish

PLEIADES D
I tore a collared shirt hopping a gate
and lost a button shimmying across the peak of a roof
just so I could cuddle in privacy
oh, life, what heights to climb just to float down kindly
on clouds or surfing crowds
the things that bring together others and fill with pleasure
the very emptyness in the sense of experiencing such realities
alone, they say we die alone, but someone told me to fear not
deep thought, carried on with a walk uphill, to find a peaceful place
before the sun showed its face
oh, life, what great fall to take
when tripping on my very own heart strings
playing a soft melody, lulling me to focus my attention
on the things that matter, beyond simply just matter
Keep in mind the indignities felt
when they skin us alive for a belt.
But here now he drops in
Brothers, let us begin
to let him know just how we all felt.
