His fingers are so long and delicate, almost effeminate.
His eyes are so brown, almost a bronze garnet when sunlit.
His face is so perfect, I want to forever kiss it.

A certain feature
on a creature
dooms it to extinction
Exact same thing
in writing ~
a mark of fine distinction

The taut rope is tightening,
Fears of an end heightening;
No hope of it loosening:
The craziest reasoning…
Yes, helping hands slackening,
A quite bright day darkening;
Now, a sight quite sickening,
The vigorous weakening,
Tough men turn the defenseless,
As tough women the helpless…
On could pick out the listless,
At that moment quite useless!
Only the crown free from scratch,
High fever never to catch;
My own world: a spinning cone,
My own home where one may moan…
Now, features are hardening,
Few remember gardening;
Why? Loss is widening,
Its horizon broadening.

Flakes sparkling 'round the lamppost's glow
Floating softly on a windless night
First snow watcher's- peep through the window
Fading footprints white on white
From midnight's stroller's- 'neath the light

BOTOX BRIGADE
Oh so numb, I can’t stop myself drooling,
Can’t feel my brows, touch them, one is drooping,
My lips I feel are massively huge and swollen,
I should have realized that this was a bad omen.
My cheeks are sore, injected frequently,
Obsessed by the media talk increasingly,
I dare not put lipstick on, for I’ll look like a clown,
I stare at the mirror in horror, I have no frown.
For boobs I requested a size thirty six
Simply wanted to be one of the chicks,
But the surgeon had extra silicone,
Even the so famous Dolly I outshone!
A nip and a tuck were done on my tummy,
Which I inherited after becoming a mummy,
And after the final touch of a firmer bum
I looked like new, a different me I had become.
I knew I was in fact addicted,
This was to me often predicted,
Developed scars, no recognizable features,
Too late, now one of many Botox cheaters.

Black and orange passerine with red eyes
In the woods of
New Guinea
They live
Belle
They
Whistles
Even have
Toxic feathers
Get the poison from the food that they eat.

Fright Features
1) Fright Night
Assured steps lead my costumed son,
dwells California night slight calm,
tugs tight-fitted guise sparse undone,
assured steps lead my costumed son,
plus kid brother midst stargazed fun,
his hand held in brother's cool palm,
assured steps lead my costumed son.
An Alameda porch shines bright,
as bold thumb press a doorbell ring,
a squire smiles at his silvered knight,
an Alameda porch shines bright,
answers tall clown causes a fright,
naive grabs sweets snub elder's cling,
an Alameda porch shines bright.
2) Fright Flight
A bright Livermore cloudless sky,
sits a Piper Cherokee plane,
my pilot friend, his wife and I,
a bright Livermore cloudless sky,
Phoenix bound, 4-seater, breaths sigh,
took-off without a hitch fears wane,
a bright Livermore cloudless sky,
Comes a fear not to be ignored,
Meteor Crater, prayed plenty,
spirals down to a lift, restored
comes a fear not to be ignored,
Grand Canyon sights yon his dashboard,
some dive took, I flipped a penny,
comes a fear not to be ignored.

The sun becomes the moon at night
With fabulous luck luster delight and
The crickets sings chorus
Little somethings nesting in trees
In holes in the ground
The silver moon declines and the
Sun begins to peak above its horizon
With birds in harmony as the day
Breathes its first breath
Then the sullen quiet of the night
Assumes the form of floral wonders
With their deep sighs of relaxing relief
Nearly summer a beach of A time
Barbeque relays and children's laughter
Dances through the sweet welcoming air
And this to soon a memory captured
By a photograph SPRING set by natures clock
Ticks and tocks caterpillars move at a slow pace
To bloom into butterflies, roses blossom as well
with their deep red and Carnations in tow With violets and yellow
Everything is fair and joy
Many lovers stroll hand in hand
And everything is love
The sun has won

Long blonde hair brushes her soft shoulders -- yellow roses
Rich ruby lips parted in a sensual smile -- red roses
Dazzling white teeth gleaming so bright -- white roses
Lavender eye shadow, hint of excitement -- purple roses
Her bouquet of features, flowers' explosion of colors
~ No lover would say that hers are duller

Eyes seen as pools of honey;
Sticky, sweet, and somber they aren’t.
Their tears fall like melted caramel down to her chin.
Blink too fast and you’ll miss their light.
A smile so inviting, you would think it was trying to give you a hug.
Lips so flushed, soft, and, plumped; calling my name.
The sound such a whisper, yet it could be heard through every ear around the world.
Her voice was my favorite;
So full, yet so angelic.
Whether she was singing or not;
I imagine that the world stops when she sings,
But time runs backwards when she just speaks.

THE MEERKAT
Meerkats are delightful beasts,
Arousing warm affection
They stand in groups discrete
Looking in the same direction
COW
How now brown cow
A bestowal to the world art thou
Miracle of God's construction
Four stomachs in mass production
THE PIG
Our blessings upon you abound
In our hearts you did awaken
A sense of gratitude profound
For bringing home the bacon
CHICKENS
In these days of Genetic modification
There is a question that begs
Should we yield to the great temptation
To get a chickens with four wings and six legs
THE URBAN PIGEON
I've nothing against the urban pigeon
But could it not maintain a smidgeon
Of caution when it makes its flyway
In the middle of a six lane highway
THE ANT
The ant delights to frolic
In Formic acid vitriolic
But on the tongue of the Ant Eater
There is nothing could be sweeter
THE BULL
His spontaneous emanation
Given without solicitation
Should encouraged him on a mission
To be a salesman or politician

Features Redeeming and Streaming
May forget which features were redeeming;
Great qualities that in should be streaming;
All in full sight;
Okay and right,
And did appear in thoughts while dreaming.

A lion is braver than you are
But you leave scars that scares more
All animals have their own features
But you got them all
I am afraid to face you
To look into your eyes
Because your eyes deceited many
And mended no broken heart
Should I fear you,should I face you
The ball is in my court
You turned the judges word into wound
You turned me on as a victim to a lover
Whatever that you are bathing with is stronger than anything
Just yesterday you made me to drop all the charges against you
Who got the features like yours
No one ever had
I am addicted to you

Redeeming Feautures
One of my features which would redeem
Is I always liked eating cold ice cream
With whipped cream and many nuts
Hearing natives singing from huts
And clams when they start to steam.
