folie a deux
he grew a conscience and no longer stares ~ now she asks if he don’t care
so he peeps through her keyhole just to be fair ~ human nature’s laid bare

Pas De Deux Of Hearts
Pas de deux of hearts;
Reaching for her hand
he bows with such grace;
An enthralled smile asks
‘May I have this dance?’
Dressed to mingle,
to twist and shout;
Balanced breathing,
a profound pulse;
Heat rises
with a touch
on her back,
Just one
finger
slides.

Commuter part deux
You've seen the sunlight
now you mask your pride
Friends tell you where to go
Keep on a straight line
peaceful shades of green
strides past you
There's a commuter strip demur
back to cover hes read his Daily Mail
the burglued fox languishes
Making sense of the passing years
Lost in a wherewithal
Is it time to change ?
to purify your soul
or cry to the

My Generation Part Deux Exodus
To the artists and inventors to come,
my generation was so rebellious.
We tried to instill that fraction of us,
feelings now are seen as so bothersome;
Although human emotions are gruesome
at times they can make us so glorious;
'Dream with everything you have.' Exodus!
Why are you so content with living numb?
If you only remember this one thing,
fly racing

Inevitable Death Defines Afterlife - Deux
Inevitable death defines afterlife - deux
Flinty stones figuratively rolling inside
whooping out that primal
binaural beat of your drum
ma mind haphazardly
ricocheting axon to neuron
inducing inxs of chaos
wreaking entropy beheld
by beauty and the beast
enveloping means to enjoy
sacred moments treasured
savoring, seizing, and signaling salad days
because you’re young
within reliquary of fragile cerebral dome
croaking before

Pale Daughters Part Deux
Pale daughters
don't stoke the familial fireside
they wait patiently for the darkness
toting their time
They are not the ones
to hang around freckles smiles
instead they tell quaint jokes
Children call them defilment
their painted smiles tell a different story
lying in bed with their spectacles on.

Croydon Part Deux
hoardings of shops on the isle of ridiculousness
the feral pigeons pontificate
the leaking roof of the civic theatre stays
you've seen better days
you've blundered into desperation
bankrupted twice
and now you're turning the middle
of town into millionaires row
ill afforded by the minions
even our local Market is shrinking
an ebb tide of the municipality
Westfield as vexing as a fox in

Comical Nonsense Deux
Don't grab a hot pan with your hand, from the form the oven!
It's painful.
Don't roller skate in a Hurricane?
Are Ya crazy?
Don't linger by tall buildings, in an earthquake.
It's fatal.
If you ride on a burrow might land on a cactus.
Your jazz will be Achin.
Don't eat a loaf of avocado toast and two stacks of bacon.
That's constipation

Rock a Billy Part Deux
Lonesome breeze
on the wrong track
wont my babe come back
Ole Railway on a smouldering tack
Maybe she's on the wrong train
When is she coming back
What am I to do
with my chagrin baby
aloft in the mayfair air

Sthandwa-Deux
Sthandwa sthandwa
I’ve loved from afar
Sthandwa sthandwa
Dissatisfaction slowly grows
I say I love you
You say you adore me
We say a lot of things
Day and night
Sweet nothings are exchanged
Empty words to fill up the void between us
But this lips long to kiss
And this hands long to hold
My fingers cry out
To caress, to touch
I lay on my back
Dreaming about

Forth Vaccination Boosts Acquiescence Toward Mortality Part Deux
shuttering fright housed inside
in one poof annihilating prejudice
(white privilege included) and pride
reducing to ashes trumpeting
self importance, where snide
persona grata becomes irrelevant
as does living social
or vacationing in Telluride.
Interestingly enough,
I do not entertain notions
inflicting self harm nor suicide,
but expect longevity (to ride
one after another orbitz around the sun)
minimum total (represented courtesy
value units and tens place)
equaling the largest
