SHALA ILLUSTRIOUS EMOTION

Little light in my life
Tell me the secret of your shine
Star in my sight
Light of my life

Little notions 
Loving devotions
Now I have an appetite 
My PLEASURE  MEASURED  TREASURE

I am jealous with every noxious 
Minute the moon glow touches you
 Mon amore mon amore mon amore

I am sending gentle tidings your way
To save for

Connie's Illustrious Legacy

I am the mother tree that spawned the seeds of you.
"Connie Marcum Wong"

 
What a mysterious merit!
What marvels will you inherit?
They are highly sweeping and dainty,
All the graceful leaves fall so faintly

What a lovely tree; Connie's lyrics are lost for us,
the mystery of life is what you discuss.
Comments that are about to prevail,
Heard and avail.

The Illustrious Balloon

Mid clouds of adulation,
topped with a golden crown,
he wafts so high above us
and smiles benignly down.

We lowly creatures wallow
here on these earthy sods.
Our eyes alone may follow
 his passage to the gods.

The Treatise of the Illustrious Sage On Response and Retribution

Canto I: The Words of Laozi  

The Divinely Illustrious Sage  
Prays for every soul to heed:
That neither woe nor weal
Heaven has foreordained,
But wrought by men alone,
The fruits of virtue and vice
Pursue the begetter like 
A shadow following the form!

Canto II: The Celestial Justiciars 

Between Heaven and Earth
Dwell the Demigods of Justice,
They weigh the

Illustrious

When favored by sun

raindrops scattered through the trees

form candles of light…

Withered leaves are christened new

with lucent rainbows streaming

Illustrious, Venomous

illuminating, intimidating
mixed in with the brilliant light of the sun
added in with the color of a little maple leaf
Happiness, the message given off
but it's only a masquerade ball
hiding behind all the plastic mannequins standing tall
Sadness, regret, puzzlement
the meaning of life, what is it
the real question, the real face of the iris
behind the glass
wondering if the

Free Cee the Illustrious Vienna Bombardieri

VIENNA BOMBARDIERI

She'll take a tincture of time and teach you
she'll take you to a realm where she'll reach you
she'll take that time and education then mix them
together as one
and won't stop until her mission of mercy is done

warm up a glass of brandy
or open a box of candy
look at an old family picture in brown

Horrid Harmony By the Illustrious Free Cee

HORRID HARMONY

She’s a horrible lady who does horrible things
But man, the lithe little lady sings
She’ll bend a note while you lend an ear
And her falsetto is something you really must hear

She’s an insolent woman with wicked ways
She wants to be worshipped but never prays
Yet she makes every song seem a lullaby 
Until her finale begins

Four Poor Junkies By the Illustrious Free Cee

DO DON’T, WILL, WON’T

We were wandering, we were lost
Four who knew not the route out of a maze
Other’s blood upon our hearts was there embossed
Never to forget a dead man’s glaring gaze

Once, twice and then one becomes numb and void
While death becomes birth’s ally and partner in crime
Some may swear and some become annoyed
Each time

Illustrious Phallus

Illustrious phallus!  Therein procreation, the urge for a bedfellow, 
To yearn for the delight and gnaw not bashfully, 
Seeking the unfound renascent song, faithful-song, 
Gross poems like lemon to the mouth, 
Seeing the wetness of wood, lapping leaves, perfect motionless or no,
A lying form, tremulous and ashamed of its divinity arouse this mystic whisper,
