when your country
again unlock the doors
for me, and the laws are
softened,
when frontiers are franchised
to my dreams, I will then come for
you in your enchanted castle...
I'll carry back my idiosyncrasy
to dialogue with yours, and soon
we will continue our fabulous adventure
of love...
We'll live together forever
fulfilling the prophecies we once created
under the moonlight.... We will live in peace and love
without any delays and breaks... !

Twenty teens relic of Poetry Soup
Self richeously titled 'Destroyer'
Pours gallons of gobblety goop
Franchised vagueness purveyor
Esteemed evaporates as steam
Puffed vapours stutter once were
Sophistication of learning machines
On command deliver similar blur
Structure secures tenures
Moulded by word discernment
Evolving phrasing reverence
Salutes Her Honour's adjournment
Sock drawer tipped upside down
Displays threadbare mismatches
Spilled contents far less profound
than moment incubation hatches
Simmering pungent chopped onion
Shrunken potential, slips translucent
Terrified writer uses cliche crutches
Readers' precious alliance loosened
A.I inhales sailing sequence snippets
Derivative diminishes in computer reign
Harddrive heartache flimsily depicted
Random frequent phrases fail to explain
Gathered calamity of data diaphanous
Hive imput spits cacophony deafening
Authenticity bears value of writers
Trophies consciousness refreshing

Immortal rebound, hold the loss
of grace in kind, I so repent,
some answering of heart's dissent
surrounds with moral ego's gloss!
In constancy, the voice impound
in aggravating columns hound,
Oh, Peace, help me not so resent
the efforts wailing, loudness bound!
This vision's counsel, learned sake
what reprimand, which stand to take,
the diplomatic goal to wit
unknowing outcome, franchised fit?
To live hope's vision, contemplate
while words assailing hinder sound,
the throw of it not duplicate
by speaking not . . . I hold my ground!
PSALM 56:1-13

Villanelle: Only in democracies reigns surprise
Only in democracies reigns surprise
The majority cast their franchised rights
Elect CEOs who tell fat cat lies
In dictatorships the leader is wise
He elects himself and appoints his mites
Only in democracies reigns surprise
On election day leaders on the rise
By the hundredth day majority fights
Elect CEOs who tell fat cat lies
By end of first term majority dies
Wonders how they kept the leader uprights
Only in democracies reigns surprise
By start of second term the voter cries
Give us our oligarchy by rights
Elect CEOs who tell fat cat lies
In dictatorships people march in files
To show they don’t much care about rights
Only in democracies reigns surprise
Elect CEOs who tell fat cat lies.
