They came with loaded guns a pack of ten police, for Desi Freeman
Did they the first shots release? Now two are dead..beat down by
Lead, another wounded; and their quarry is fled.' What crime originate the chain of events.? Sad to see the state of affairs.' Mind
You life now seems cheaper.' Where once many cared here.' Is
It the fruit of heavy policing, and government over-reach.?
Did he lose a grandparent.? Due to lockdowns and hyped speech?
Was there a gripe.? What does this teach.? Will he be the
Modern Ned Kelley, adrift in the bush.?
Will dobbers surface.? Will confidence leech? I only hope for healing.? Peace and mateship i here beseech.'

Desi DeRotten was not easily forgotten
She only wore cotton, and was easily besotten.
Missy Fit heard about her, and got sick a bit.
She has incredible wit, unless she senses a nitwit.
Swede Glooginfloggin fell onto my toboggan.
He hurt his shoulder, his ribs, and his sniffing noggin.
Petunia Patch thought he might be her match.
She invited him to dine, but he said “some other time”.
They were all participants of the dating app Plenty of Fish.
Desi DeRotten thought he would find himself a real dish.
Missy Fit was looking for a man with hair in a big batch.
Surprisingly someone else had signed up Petunia Patch.

Her madcap antics behaviors enthrall

Desiree Dissention disliked dishonest disorderly Denise
Discontented Destiny discounted Desiree’s dislike of Denise
Diabolical Denise displayed despotic disapproval of Desi
Desiree and Destiny’s discord disgusted Desi and Denise

As a young child I fondly recall
tuning into Desi Arnez and Lucille Ball.
Their chemistry was great and brought
many a guffaw.
Lucy always stumbled in to comical pitfalls,
which culminated in to marital quarrels.
Desi's broken English, always saying,
"Lucy, you got to do some s plaining."
Yet there's nothing funny nor deserving
of a rhyme when one recalls T's presidency
and the rise of hate crimes..
The threats to volunteers who worked at
our polls nor to Mr. Pelosi's tragic hammer blows..
The January 6th attack on our Capitol police,
many still badly traumatized, several now deceased.
Mr. D. Trump has the audacity to want another reigning.
It's time for his MAGA buddies to "do some s plaining."

I loved to play 'Cowboys and Indians'
My favorite book was 'Little Fat Policeman'
I really enjoyed a good minstrel show
Desi Arnaz Jr's accent made my laughter grow
Today I'd be a fat-shaming racist
who culturally misappropriates to boot
Back then I was just another 'normal kid'
in his designer white-privilege suit

When Ozzie & Harriet wed
Censors decreed one to a bed*
Desi & Lucy
Never got juicy
But McCarthy still dubbed them, "Red!"
* It was not OK in the USA for
married couples to share the
same bed, but always OK for
people and puppets to beat
the crap out of each other,
leaving Soup poets to wonder
why people are so cruel!

Lucille Ball
Made us laugh, playing hardball
With dingbat displays
And clever, nonsensical ways!
Desi Arnaz
Caused mayhem with pizzazz
Zaniness we loved to view
As he broadened the hullabaloo!

Lucille (“Lucy”) Ball
Her desire for show biz fame is anything but small
Plays the wife of Ricky the Cuban drummer
How she goes about it could not be funnier.
Desi (“Ricky”) Arnaz
A full-time job reining in his kooky wife he has
Loves Lucy with all his heart
And his conniving Lucy is extremely smart!

Indian Girl
The next train is to India to a big crowded city, Calcutta. I am a Desi girl called Prittima Desmona. I am thirty two and live near a small town called Kajoy.
You may ask who I am. I am a typical Indian girl. I work in a call centre and drive a small car. I don’t own a smart phone or computer. I have a simple mobile with buttons on it and have enough of computers at work.
I’m going to meet my parents in Calcutta by train, a journey that will take a day or so depending on the weather and landslides. I lived with them till I moved to Kajoy five years for my new job. I get to see them every few months due to work. My job is very busy but the pay is good.
Kajoy is a developing town. It’s by the coast and the local government signed a decree not to allow the town to become overcrowded and polluted like Calcutta (now Kolkata but I like the old name or New Delhi). Only so many buildings can be built per city block and there is a height limit and population limit too. Time will tell if this works or not.

I tasted your soul last night.
It left your essence to linger on my tongue.
Not to mention the scent that dances bare
there About my upper lip.
Or your aura’s nectar that has stained my mouth,
With fantom flavors of your character's own passion.
And then there’s that dribble of lust that clings to my chin
The same one that I dare to forget and wipe clean.
Only To be left with nothing But a dream.
I tasted your soul last night.

After so many tears shed,
the widower strikes out on his own.
His heart on the mend
after losing his raison d'etre
but it remains incomplete.
But life goes on,
and he's decided to go along
with it, at last
With the blessings and support
of his grown children...
he's giving love another go.
He's in search of "my person";
a cap-a-pie compatibility
That special lady who'll
make him whole once again
Someone who
complements him perfectly...
Think Charlie Brown and Snoopy
Or Clark Kent and Lois Lane
Or Desi and Lucille
You get the idea...

O Cerridwen,
goddess of poetry
Lend me your ear
For I have found your earthly vessel
Blessings upon my eyes
Tenderness here lies
Bathing in the glow of a full moon
She chides me in the ways of love!

Parallel
As we crawl through her mind
I indulge in all her secrets.
if her thoughts; she laid there on a silver platter
then I dabbled a bit within each of her fantasies.
As we swaddled her lust within a blanket
I snuggled there deep in her mental bosom.
We lifted her passion up to the next level
and I ate up all her barriers built from past discretion.
