Someone’s Universe


Someone’s universe
Planetoids, however hard they try,
Will always be tiny betwixt mine eye.
Planetoids are midget thrust. planetoids are Lilliputian,
planetoids are small, however still.
Spinning, spinning whirls thrills, well

I cannot help but stop and look 
At  all those innumerable earths.
Do earths make you shiver?
do they shudder, make you feel belittled?

Planetoids, however hard they try,
Will always be tiny betwixt mine eye.
Planetoids are midget thrust planetoids are Lilliputian,
Planeloads are small, however still.
Spinning, spinning whirls thrills, well someone’s Universe

When I think of the supernova, I see a distant Egypt.
Are you upset by how slick it is?
Does it tear you apart to see the supernova so adroit?
Sunny side up…
Someones universe just exploded...

Premium Member Zephyr Winds Drops the Last Nuke Bomb-

Saw I  the zephyr move of my generation being destroyed,
How I mourned the balmy breeze.
Brisk, balmy fiery breeze.
Does the balmy breeze make you shiver?
Does it?
End of times, someone just drop the last nuke bomb

How happy are airspace, jumbo jets!
Do jumbo jets make you shiver?
Do they?
Smoke and fiery streams in the skies light
Light up the blueness through and around clouds

cunning zephyr sings like the southern coast
this isn’t no joke
Now knavish is just the thing,
Bombs landing bombarded exploding
to get me wondering if zephyr are yet adroit.
End of times, someone just drop the last nuke bomb

Lyric Micro Essay Masquerades As Odd Poetic Story

Mild dystopian cracks open 
cobwebbed laden figurative door 
to my super charged 
subconscious shrouded self - 
portal carelessly left ajar
steeped in dark shadows, 

wherein spooky monsters creep 
along edge of night, 
outer limits of twilight zone 
serve as makeshift restraining: bar
21st century alchemist busily massages 
a fictional holographic projection 
to contemplate car

re: ying the terrestrial firmament 
into spasms of expiration, which whim far
fetched since the following conjecture 
contrived within overactive imagination 
of yours truly - such peculiar notions par
for the course sans striving 

to become adroit 
teasing out ethereal material 
analogous to embrace 
plasma up holding star
reed cosmic funereal invocation 
loosing prognostication silencing war.

So without further ado
I offer to continue 
embellishing literary above 
iterated missive anew
for ye to ponder and brew
from a mister wordsmith 
comprising wife as counterpart 
complimenting beastie boy 
aptly named duo motley crue,

whereat dwells within complex edifice 
housing he who begat 
offspring numbered uno and deux,
whereby this husbandly spouse i.e me 
resembles a cross eyed 
cryptogram solver
geeky long haired pencil necked geek
artificially inseminated yik yak 
with fertilized egg of emu

unbeknownst to many edified readers 
might consider myself brain cells few
explainable from being 
chomped on by a carnivorous oldish gnu, 
nevertheless unaffecting ability 
to sire female progeny 
re: guarding biological process
concerning human reproduction 
viz ova linkedin with seminal glue

swimming swiftly via viscous hue
biological processes extant 
from equator far north 
to Inuit housed in igloo
nonetheless, genetic heritage 
comprised predominantly of Jew
genealogy heritage indeed 
Ask Jeeves, cuz he knew
with one very late Uncle Lou

who suffered mad cow disease, 
and considered hims
a milch cow and frequently did moo
calf full when bovine brand new
which found me to rue
what comprises reality to be true
that all humans originated 
from the primate zoo.

Premium Member A Propitiation of Blue Tears

A Propitiation of Blue Tears

On this highway to where the skies bleed blue tears into vases; 
on ornate buttresses they sit and saturate us, 
they cry and douse us,
they contract, expand, release….up from the bowels, 
out into the time continuum, wetting the things 
below in layers of satin and matte finishes.

They converge with the sand motions 
prone to time signals, 
they bend to the forces of beeftime, 
finding dazzling hours lost in the haunted bunkers 
where dead reptiles find savage grace and a fork.

Foraging through time files, 
scratching out a dirt-bath patch, 
switching-up the game, 
ratcheting a firm grip, 
delighting in a geyser-water soda drink,
we looked and saw high peaks 
belching snow through ejaculations of ice and methane, you who were with me at Orange Grove 
that whistling foggy night, 
the high forging time, 
like an eating bear in the muck.

The withal that composes an early humanoid, 
assembles an adroit package equipped to message 
the night skies of its dominion.

Oh this highway, to where the skies 
have no answer for the frostbite or the death of the sun;  
we are not equipped to handle such a client, 
the skin is gone, 
and the seedy highway is coughing up yellow blood.

Gather up the detritus of illusions, 
rustle up a repast for the “El Rey”, 
sweep the streets into asphalt rolls, 
spread the skies blue tears over the mantle of this space, where the sacrificial ogress dines on her own offal, offering up a propitiation, 
to the Milky Way’s highway of stars.


Cut To the Chase After Tan Hat Man

Cut to the chase after tan hat man!

Though reading horror stories 
gearing up as strawberry spring fest
full throttle danse (macabre),
an only every now and again predilection
genre crazy wave
washing over me like
a killer tsunami,
harboring pier rill less night surf
(subsequently fueling figurative
hair razing close shave 

critical desperation) to save
thine scrawny ****,
(a derriere laughing stock,
and hence cheeky of me to rave),
what you put
in a Margarita,
those rare occasions satiated, when
hung over insomnia heavily bulging,
rheumy myopic blood shot eyes
nonetheless lock into

vital opening sentence determining,
whether adroit kingly author
nimbly setting the stage and pave
ving what thenceforth, pro
misses tubby a cell out ace
in the hole captive audience
skeleton crew exhuming a grave
grim reaper they crave 
(me, this apt pupil), doth brace
himself by all counts once

a bad little kid deserving, well...now...
just a bag of bones,
who fiendishly cackles
analogous to screeching 
linkedin deafening banshee
when leaning in (Sheryl Sandberg like),
whereat after opening sentence, 
an instantaneous big bang
possessive gnarly hand
forcibly grabs my attention

presaging and frightening
yours truly (juiced in case
ye did not know),
where within the bazaar
of bad dreams epic,
which seems like forever,
when I finally erase
and exorcise the bogeyman who,
regally, masterfully, immediately,
dramatically got woven 

lady chattery teeth and all
withering wicked warp and woof
establishing (proof positive),
an excellently crafted
Chiral Mad heavily shades
of night are falling
gussying haunting place,
where the color of evil permeates
every cerebral space
with darkness, said

sub rosa prime evil punctuates
the mind of this dream catcher,
whence after four past midnight
the reaper's image appears
sending adrenaline rush,
surreal augmented moving pictures,
viz flight or fight 
courtesy third eye blind
did, when firestarter alarm didst grind
passage of time manifesting dark forces

blaze zing atavistic fear itself lined
up battleground formation
from the borderlands of my mind
this even before turning
the first page where the eyes
of drag'n my afterlife 
glowed with radiant shining
where suspense didst wind.

Premium Member Kinda Wonky

Wonky is nature's norm!
Our obsession with straightness,
conceived in arrogant innocent bliss,
kowtows to a belief
that adroit straightness
following straight lines,
somehow makes things stronger, smarter,
more eye-pleasing and ever better in the long run.
But entropy knows better than the 'know-alls',
that everything transforms and decays
to maximum disorder in time.
For order and straightness
requires the input of energy
and effort that entropy lusts
to pull down, bend, twist and topple.
Being simply, wonky simple is a start!
Light beams at dawn, are one of the
rare straight things things seen in nature.
These beams shine dead-eye straight
into wonky clouds that blush red,
embarrassed to be caught outside,
in fluffy slippers with night clothes on,
feeling kinda shonky, disheveled and wonky, as 
the humans, straight-faced,
said they were.

Working toward forgiveness
With god as my witness
An occasional grimace
So much more than a scrimmage
And beyond what I ever envisioned
Helps to stay ambitious
Even when it seems so far off in the distance

Minding my business, hardly looking
No being pampered, for myself and others I'm cooking
Towards the end, I'm booking

I Keep pushing
Maintaining footing
Working on turning it into a good thing

My heart is really in this
I can still win it
So long as I never stop until the finish
Otherwise my chances will diminish

What the foik
You keep on talking shoit
And I will prove my point
By being adroit
From here to way beyond Detroit

All crap
B.S. is what I call that
Ya'll better fall back

And chill
Before it gets ill
On either side of the hill
You think you do, but you don't got the skill
To get the job done like I will
I'm coming in for the kill
Not for the thrill
Never going to get my fill
I'm still
With it, you don't know the drill
Blood continues to spill
Over money in the form of a bill
Anywhere, not just in Brazil
People act like they know a lot, when they really know nil

Premium Member Her Name Was Regret

Her name was Regret, with a rocket step
She was chestnut flashing, released lightning
In a century past, an age of side saddles and corsets
She was feminism set free, blazing down racetracks

She matched the undefeated wind
Besting the boys, again and again
Her arduous suitors, fools for the chase
Fell, one by one, under her pace
And, left to shade of golden wings flown
Had to settle for escorting her home

She was the first queen to display the red
Of Kentucky Derby roses around her head
Her exploits so adroit, she won her peers
And named American Horse of the Year

Her place in racing legacy, set
Not bad for a filly named Regret.

(in 1915, Regret was the first filly to win the Kentucky Derby)

Premium Member Our Claymores Desire

Whispers we'd heard for many a year
But we were so far north they never came near
Then the day came for us Highlander men
It wasn't just where, just a matter of when

Down from the Glens came us Clannish men
To fight for our freedom to cleanse us from them
Soldiers unknown marching so fine
But soon we would meet, it's just a matter of time

Mountainsides so boggy, bracken lush to waist
Trepidation in our hearts, our Claymores desire taste
Shields of wood, Dirks of point
No shiny armour we carry, adroit

The time is nearing our scouts have declared
Intruders now sighted none to be spared
Marching like ants as if on familiar terrain
No care to their flanks, simply constrained

To the mouth of our Glen to these hideous men
Unknown to them, to them descends
Clannish, we many and all
When our ire erupts, our enemies fall

Ahead of them blocked, bails of hay now fired
We have them where they are, soon to expire
Confusion abounds, horses in throw
To whom they look up, administered blow

Arrows aplenty, spears of destiny
Targets hit, as our aiming should be
Reddened eruptions from flesh torn wounds
Claymores thrusting deep, admiring life consumed

Panic abounds amidst limbless souls
Crimson trails confirm our goals
Men of us in deadened taken
Battles like this should never be forsaken

The sporadic scattering of our Clannish men
To their beaten enemy, many lost in ascend
It's not the way we fought, it's how we fought together
When Alba's Clans unite,
"Were never to surrender"
