Long Advantaged Poems

Dandelions…
They flutter, now I see
Fiery lions…

Moonlight…
Shun out my darkened frown

I am the infinitesimal stars in the tranquil, terrestrial night
I am the scars minutes before the sunlit dawn...

Does this too facilely root analogy within ecology of climate health v pathology?

I have such sentimental devotion
My eyes are an outlandish ocean 
Wish I had positivity's pure potion

"The Formidable Gambit"



Silence 
calculated and distinct

conspiring with rules
plays within the 
confined squares

of a strict and
ruthless mind
preying on all moves

untraceable 
unpredictable 
irretrievable 

in the opening move
the long-legged fly
is caught in the web

silvery and slippery 
life remains...

Mighty White the US!

How ‘white’ whites are who worship Sun and think a tan line’s fine

I lay down in silent agony, left unsure,
Drowning in distress, yet happiness will be a stone, rolling back on me in an instant or in a moment…anxiety heightened 

You are chopped onions...

To build mighty mansions and palaces strongholds turrets and dreams 

Sometimes fantasy figures in a world that was powerful only for some

I was at the bar tonight – I’m sorry, father

I am the crow of the night, so don’t bother,

Releasing me, for I have wings of flight already

I bore these scars for far too long…the stars...

IN  MODERATION
By: William S. Labtis

Anything….taken
in excess is wrong! 
Physically, morally or legally!
What may cause or uncaused  you
Un-ending  indigestion, detestation
 protestation , exhaustion or exhumation!
After that condemnation…is a word of caution!

Secretly, I watch the neighbors, 
From my well-advantaged location.
Mrs. G. is complaining about her husband to Mrs. S.
No one's drama is ever as vivid as Mrs. G's.
They full-body laugh, tongues out.
Mr. P. is going to...

We have friends
Close with
Still communicating

Thinking they are forever there
In the moments to come
Talking about random things
Going deep in our souls

Doing everything

There is no control
For all of them...

It’s closing in,
The harmonic melody,
It’s tone deliberately grim.

As a one-time melody, it is heard by all.
A familiar, yet unfamiliar ring.

For the majority - its tune is distance.
But like all those before, I can hear it-
