Testament - Feb 21

If unexpectedly I were to die, 
then this at least is here for all to see -
something of mine, a collection of what was I;
to survive the flesh, what could beat poetry?

Hubris begs me "Don't leave this world unknown!"
In secret I agree, but as for pride,
it tugs my sleeve and beckons with a groan,
"Are you

Letter from a Wishful Lover - Feb 22

To let my wanton gaze go wandering
And graze giddily your saintly silhouette,
With wonder watching you and pondering 
What wild pensées through my fancy pirouette;

To glimpse a glimmer gleaming from your gloss,
A sparkle shining gaily on your smile,
To steal the lipstick from your lips, to toss
Your weight my way, a soirée worth your while;

To feel a

Jackie - Feb 20

And just when I thought life was turning gray,
A beam of sunshine cleaving clouds asunder 
Strolls into my sight and I must wonder,
Who is this that I meet this moody day?

That spotlight aura bends gravity around her,
I’m attracted, drawn in by her mystique.
And following her hypnotic physique,
I try to speak—but stutter, then flounder.

She’s tall, dark-haired,

In Practice - Feb 24

The present prince of Prussia prances proudly
With preaching priests, while prattling proles suppress
The primal pressure to prank the pretext
Of proper praise for the precious primate.

Logotherapy - Feb 12

The pressure to perform, which grips the soul
In the moment of action, digs its claw
Deep into the body, taking control —
Tense hands, weak knees, shallow breathing, clenched jaw —

Those symptoms of exaggerated worry
And anticipated anxiety
Are themselves the causes of that dreary
Failure to achieve. With some gaiety,

Attempt to fail instead, shoot to flounder;
This paradoxical intention, see,

For 14 Feb

When birds start to chirp bright, 
We both on boats, loaded with hugs and hopes, 
sail through serene scopes 
to savor sweet and splendid sight.

When cicadas no longer chant aloud, 
We both on kites , filled with love and luck, 
fly on the sky nip and tuck 
to flirt with rose-clothed cloud.

Jingle, Jangle, Jingle - Revision of 'My True Framework,' Feb 18, 2024

         Do you have skeletons in your closet
           I have a few in mine … 
 
         They jingle, jangle, jingle   
     

Antimony Foolishness

Antimony Foolishness
Age 51 is often when one’s unable,
To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending.
New sports car, how youthful!  Refuting the label,
Of premature old age, gray hair pending.
Girl friends need to be added to the stable,
Young women, their company lending,
Immortal aura when sharing their bar table.
What invokes “against aloneness”, or “befriending”?
You’ll find

A Text From Ukraine - Feb 28, 2022

87 residential buildings destroyed in Kharkiv last night
  5,000+ displaced renters in the most dire of plights

Yet Putin and Russia they so intensely despise
  Uncommon determination resounds in their cries



____________________________________________
My wife's former apartment building was one of the 87.
We watched it get bombed and utterly destroyed last
night. Can you imagine the hell that's

Vignette Feb 25

A great artist was Sofonisba
Due to her her enlightened pa-
A court painter to a king
Throughout Europe her fame did wing-
So now her praise to you I sing

A painter in Le Havre called Eugene
Found the 'outside' mor his scene

Claude taking aboard the views of this man-
And so ,Impressionism began

In the town of Givernay
Inspired by his belved Seine
A garden series made his name-
Abstract impressions,his lasting fame

Tribute to Monet
