Divorcee Diatribe

I'm still alive.
I'm singing like a swan 
And my beauty's impeccable.
Eight months divorced,
Spinnin' is my head
Now my kids are separable.
Workin' numerous jobs...
Now I sound like my Ex,
Oh, inexorable.
But no more slinging fault.
Life tosses lessons
So best ride and abide.
Go forth with pride.
You are the sinner 
And you are the Saint.
Be the the best you can.

Diatribe From An Empty Room

The mind was old before it came upon you,
it took your shoes
made you walk upside down
in an inverse eye.

Pray tell, is all well?

Now expostulate your lip tripe
and see if any much broken soul
cares.

Keep your trapdoor mind,
your garmented flapping pockets
so full of the disavowed,
the cancelled out widow weeds
of fake sorrow.
Be not evermore, be not even now.

Diatribe In An Empty Room

Also & nevermore recorded,
the mind sticks, picks at scabs,
wanders away forgetting.

Thunder, you full throated seas,
thunder in the full and swollen veins.
Tell us what words hate,
tell us, be not so mute as a rabbit
fox cowered in a shivering burrow.

The baby crib was born to whimper.
The baby lamb pushes at the nipple
whimpers just the same.
Wimple and weft,

Describe a Diatribe

Describe A Diatribe

What is best way to describe
Song birds singing in a diatribe
Who you always can find in nature
But not knowing nomenclature.

Let me hear sounds and see the sight
Of birds in morning, noon or night
With noises so shrill or maybe mellow
In background are cows that bellow.

Waves will come in creating a crest
I am so thankful

A Mere Diatribe

A Mere Diatribe

A mere diatribe,
Which is full of silly words;
Where should I start next?

Hinkleworths Diatribe

yes, yes
you see, my boy
we are the belts of society
you may hear such a statement and recoil;
for indeed, it is frivolous. but what is a belt?
a woven fiber, which must remain firm and taut,
and exists only to uphold a curtain
shielding from sight shameful and private entities.
entities that govern
all that we know

Free Cee a Deafening Diatribe

A DEAFENING DIATRIBE
There is music all around
Yet I cannot hear it
Beauty abounds
Yet and still I fear it

It’s a matter of fact I swear
A fact foreseen by fate
It’s a matter of fact I fear
And a matter of horrendous hate

I look around and wish I were blind
My eyes to be seared by the sun
I look around to

Inconsequential Diatribe

Inconsequential diatribe
From politicians left and right
Is something we should not inscribe
Across our children's line of sight.

Polarity can paralyze
When adulation of conceit
Allows some not to realize
Opposing views must all compete.

Diversity has made us great
Along with freedom to believe
Or not believe in God and fate
To justify what we conceive.

Inherent in democracy
Is freedom from oppressive weight
That rules like
