Double Dactyl Poems

Out of Line

Out of line sometimes life's events don't always rhyme and if I hear hey bro the line is over here, um going to lose it, throw a fit and then maybe get inline.  In line out of line online all these lines still nothing straight.Lines-you going to make it, heard that line so many

The New Me

So now what, where do I go from here
I'm wandering around feeling a bit weird

People that I know don't know how to react
Thinking my spirits have finally cracked

Not so, I welcome this change of scene
Drinking more coffee, it's becoming routine

It's similar to finally stopping to smoke
After forty long years for fear that I'll croak

Well wish

An Equestrian Tale

Pleased as punch this mother quite proud
Flips up her tail and neighing so loud

Her gait so lively, her head held high
A bright young mama, once a gleam in her eye

Unbridled spirit, feeling so grand
The spitting image of his dear old man

Romping through fields, free of reins
Thundering hoofs, flying mane

A frisky young colt like dad in

Wearing Just Socks

I know a young lady, her name is Kim
Whenever I see her, she makes my heart grin

They call her a doctor but to me she's a friend
Whatever my ailment she knows how to mend

With every new visit, my symptoms take flight
She knows how to soothe me to remedy my plight

After all these decades finally found

A Happiness Sermon

Gloomy old Gus sure ain't my claim to fame
Upbeat and happy, they're both my middle names

There sure ain't no future in promoting ill will
Every morning the sun still peeks over the hill

There's enough negativity in the world to go round
So let's not encourage this scourge with a frown

You've only got one life to live then

In Defense of Reason

Pickety, Snickety
Reason A. Goodwin is
using a lexicon
to check the word

Reason’s a champion
alphaclopediack.
Not ev’ry intern can
find what is heard.

Reason A. Goodwin, the editor of World Book Encyclopedia Dictionary, 
was paid good money as a judge on the original Password Game Show.
The first time he used his dictionary to look up a word - the producers
commented that

Dactyls and Elephants

Dactyls are metrical
Feet that are named after
Fingers with three little
Parts like the knuckles that
Lie in a pattern of
Stress like these sentences:

'Jealously murmuring
Elephants quietly
Sob in their handkerchiefs.'

Feet that are fingers -
How odd!

My work is my mirror

                   "you know even a mirror can speak but you can't hide what your emotions are because the mirror is a kind of silent killer of your age and death"

Wobbly Legs

When I was younger and thought of old age
Thought we all became senile at this elderly stage

It appears I was wrong, I can still go potty
And able to dress this tired old body

Try as I might, I don't see very well
And my wobbly old legs are as shaky as hell

Sometimes my words come out like

A nap

,,Just a nap in noon I'll take", I always say in sudden,
Since my eyes have already rotten, 
and my breath's beat forgotten.

My clothes full of cotton, 
sadly the Fabric foresworn, 
of all the drawn scorn.

And as my face touches the couch, 
I heard my mother from the other side of the room: ,,Don't jump so

Little brothers warmth

When I was locked behind the bathroom door, 
since I didn't wanted to face what I was made for, 
you kept waiting behind even more, 
which made me unsure.

Protecting I should you in this life, 
since I am your older sister and it's the only thing that's right.

You were only 7 when I remember, 
coming

Dabble Dactyls

I have invented a nonce nonsense form: the "dabble dactyl." A dabble dactyl starts out like a double dactyl, but forgets the rules and changes horses midstream. Anyone who prefers order to chaos should give the dabble dactyl a wide berth and also not sow any wild oats.  Otherwise, “A little dabble’ll do ya.”

Mesmerizes

Holly Dolly
Mesmerizes me 
Ahead her work
Calls Me

Proofs her love
Not for me
But for hersake
Abandoning Romance

Deceitful Tongues

Rabasha Kabasha
Old Prophet Noadiah
Rifling society
Lying to God

Judgement shall fall on thee
Incomprehensibly
Thou art an enemy
One to the Lord

Gabriel Van Helsing
came so great like
a speeding arrow,

never comes late
under call as
megalomaniac
and charging sparrow.
