Long Agilely Poems

Scotch Tape Sweepstakes

The easy to handle
sticky sided material
made of a variety of materials, including
cellulose acetate, polypropylene,
PVC, and adhesive
(alluded to in the title)
applied in an innovative manner
allowing, enabling, and providing me
the means and ways to affix...

(countless moments ago
since October ninth)
unfamiliar delicate looking critter -
(seen inside the apartment many times),
she quickly identified crane fly
agilely affixed to lampshade.

I figuratively tip...

I watched you this morning.

When the cool of the air settled on the morning buds
leaving only the hint of moist stolen kisses
as golden rays slowly caressed the dew from the petals,

I watched you.

Your Cobalt beauty...

Revisiting the park of my childhood,
I envision myself and my sisters.
We are laughing and shouting, running this way and that.
“Let’s go on the swing set,” I say.

INTRODUCTION:  Hold all applause to the end
Erasing all challengers by moon of night.
Mark of the PANTHER with claws lock jaws
Branding its territory with swift  swipes.

He stalks the jungle
Polite stealth steps, rip raw

Earth element of wind, elusive to exploring eyes,
a gaseous, gusty ghost, she gyrates- gallops gallantly.
She bashes, bends, and bobs the branches of each bush and tree,

Unraveling miscommunication
Is not always sought out, but rather wise.
The key to understanding is simple.
Just listen closely to these next few steps;

First step is to humble yourself right then,
Like a lowly slave, sinking to his knees.

Birds are sinister beings.,
They  just seem to glare 
As if remembering a time
Before we were there 
When Dinosaurs ruled 
Before the asteroid came
That in a split second changed
The evolutionary game.

Mammals  advanced as

I.
The wrothful man has regotiated his saliency,
The humble man has neglected his post of "Your Excellency",

Moonlight bright is my Pom-pup, white,
Follows me, like a guard, upright;
Suffers my shortest absence, tight,
Animal with loyalty-height;
Barks emotionally...

Stiff straight sharp ears listening clear,
Whispers of the breeze she could hear;
With toe-bean paws agilely steers,
Digging me with...
