The Insincerity of Walls
Every home has a
sunny side
a shady side
sometimes it's a reflection of what goes on inside.
A homeless soul also has
a sunny side
a shady side
Everything is out in the open
the rants, neglected skin and prayers
everything married to a single piece of air.
Walls are adept at containing the prayer and rant

Insincerity
If you don't mean it,
I'd rather you'd not say
Anything to me
If it's not said sincerely
Then let it be.
Your body language
Say's it all,
And your tone of voice is rough.
I do not need an apology.
Your expression is enough.
Please do not say you're sorry
In a dismissive haughty way
If you don't mean it
It is a useless word to say!

A Nocturnal Incident Between Pub and Home
I left the pub one night in a bit of a tizzy
and saw some kind of being like a tin lizzie.
This turned out to be a polite alligator
now on probation for having eaten a waiter.
The police left it tied to a street lamp, it seemed.
It looked so kind. how its joyful face beamed.
It

Insincerity
I always try to think the best of people
Believe their intentions are genuine and true
Though today I’m questioning sincerity
Are hidden agendas behind what they say and do?
I am of a gullible nature ,soft hearted as well
Easily drawn in by friendly and nice
Never contemplating an insincere reason
Or that I would have to pay a price!
I

Harvest
Take a look at me
And declare your intentions to me
My heart bleeds
Yes, it daily bleeds
Of the substance that goes in there
Which the eyes daily encounter
And the ones that tint the ear.
How best can I cry?
For that this generation is making us to dare.
Loneliness is a bad game
But it's better than being with fake souls.
They make

Suckered By Your Bluff
I found you gal
And felt so grand.
I placed a bet
And played my hand.
But I was suckered
By your bluff,
‘Cause what you offered
Wasn’t love.
I still remember,
Way back when,
You upped the ante
Once again.
The stakes were higher
Than I knew.
I lost my soul
When I won you.
I’m gonna dry
My tears of you,
Then I’ll begin
My life anew.
I’ll plug that hole
Left in my

The State House
The Jerusalemic platy households-
The gigantic bungalow,
In the middle of a plural city
Staring at monumental poverty-
Stricken huts,
whose dying glowing through cracks
Pecked from eggs of darkness
The drank yolks of discord.
A house to which underly
A di-nozzled doorway-
A larger and thinner one,
Entered the divide humanity
Through the mono-eyed,
Pyramid gate.
The narrow gate congested
As the thicker one vomit fire
Congenital dances of the

Insincerity
The truth in life is lost with insincerity. A lonely life is gained once you accept insincerity. Fake promises, unattainable, unsustainable, draining on the soul is insincerity. Among millions, one cannot pretend, words do not make or break friends, it is insincerity. Actions alone, hold truth to reality, words like “how are you”, “I am

I Am Bored With Insincerity Contest
To those who simply try to impress
I whisper Lord, cleanup this mess
the more they brag and I pretend
I feel so stupid ........ joining in!
Why do I smile when I don't care?
I feel so guilty... standing there
As diamonds sparkle on their hand
My love reflects a thin small band
It's time to change
