Gutlessness Poems


Not a Word

Where’s the tweeting? I have heard,
From POTUS, not a single word.
It’s really quite a lovely change – 
My pressure’s in the normal range.

Not lies to set my blood to boil;
No barbs from which we must recoil.
No single put-down, not one smirk – 
For us, another losing perk.

His lackeys, too, have sealed their lips,
Still stuck on sinking battleships.
Their gutlessness prevents congrats
To all the winning democrats.

Today is quiet in the news
And whether you sport reds or blues
I’ll bet you’ll find your day complete
Without another ******* tweet.

Alluring Creatures

across this, the living walk
 on this day’s colourless rainbows
 all life thus returning, to this faux solace
 falling for eternity in the darkest night's skies
 as wind’s waves scream, over one’s possessions
 one intimate thought, held tight within their minds
 trailing death and Id’s angst in a swirl of echo' smoke
 this plummeting free fall feeds one's uncaring wilderness
 in rabid consciousness one’s natures, entice souls rush to eat
 greed, and carnal thirsts sauté, this faire of conscience consumed
 as hunger’s leaned, it’s missive imparts and infinity’s clock strikes twelve
 the chiming tones ring on, endlessly intoning across the nevermore
 explicating such grief, as all life bleeds, a vernal ponding dream
 seeped in immortality’s void, and a heart’s damning thesis
 in one’s dreams, and in reality’s stark admissions flay
 reality’s bliss, within each lifetime, as non-existent
 leaving US aghast, and wildly tripping over this
 your inconceivable, gutlessness, play at life
 struggling for parity, yet wanting tithes
 from all of your lifetimes efforts
 Ha! so you up and 'F'in die?
