LOVE MAKES FOOLS
Oh
what a
fool I was
to fall in love
with a girl like that.
To think someone perfect,
who had the pick of the field,
would look twice at a boy like me;
would even notice I existed.
And yet, each night, she invaded my dreams;
my turbulent dreams as I tossed and turned.
Then, one day, I plucked up the courage
to tell her the

Stupid And Greedy Fools
The world will not be destroyed
By nuclear, viruses and diseases
But by greedy fools and lunatic leaders
Greed and stupidity combined a dangerous threat
Create conflicts, wars and destructions
Social inequality and environmental problems
As long as greed and stupidity exist
The world remains fragile and vulnerable
To the dangerous stupid and greedy fools
The mind should evolve to culture and spirituality

The Dance of Fools
The rich parade with hollow might,
Their gilded thrones, a gaudy sight.
They count their coins, yet miss the truth,
Wisdom lost to shallow youth.
The poor, in envy, curse the game,
Chasing dreams that end the same.
A life of debt for fleeting show,
Trapped in cycles they only grow.
The wealthy build their towers high,
Yet fear the winds that cloud the

Society as few know it
Veracious vanity about victories over
veils shows vain values corrupted by
vicious volatile villains in hopes for
votive to vindicate,
Grossly gluttons gain grains over
gloomy groups of ghastly greiven gulls,
Foreign fighting by ferocious foes gets
fulfilled here by fat-headed fools
fulminating for their unknowing fatalities,
Deep dark derivatives of evil dance daily
drawing delusional

Recurrent Ruse
They come to her hungry - hopeful
To be fed facile fantasy, a script he held
Stowed in boyhood through decades
Recessed where sweating shame dwelled
Invisible while he achieved accolades
Gridiron big man outperform boastful
Invited him - initial meeting innocent, ice cream
Daddy intrigued by her earnest licking nimble
Turquoise tip of nose - How is

Ship of Fools
Without a word we get aboard
New lease of life I have to hold
You didn’t tell, but it’s okay
I knew the schedule for today
We’ve got a lot of alco stuff
And dainty food, more than enough
A few musicians, one plays flute
Three others doing strings and lute
Monk is the captain, he’s so nice
He leads

Ship of Fools
On a ship of fools without direction,
Along a circuitous trajection,
Sailors from every land and nation
Drift not by chart, but hallucination,
And their lofty voices, at once speaking
A bit louder than the planks are creaking,
Floating forever on waves, so giggly,
Along a foamy blue course, so squiggly -
Or will their cruise end, as the

April Fools' Day Cat
A cat on April Fools’, sleek and cool,
Found itself in a rather wet duel.
With a splash and a splosh,
In a fishbowl, it did wash,
Proving even a feline can be a fool!

April fools day ordinarily all manner of tomfoolery abounds
April fools' day - ordinarily all manner of tomfoolery abounds
Written/updated since last year
unlike any other
when out of this world
outlandish accouterments
people did wear
hermetically sealed
of even faintest tear
to avoid contamination
against coronavirus pandemic
air supply difficult to spare
when wing and prayer
soul saving amazing grace
frankly against scalpers, marauders,
and fraudsters steeling
themselves to profiteer.
Pandemic straps tightly
plied girded
