Helen's Brick House

Helen's brick house
was built by her grandpa James
with a specific design in mind:
the front black cross-windows
riminded one of Christ's sorrows;
when the off-white roll shades opened
the neighboors saw Helen wearing a rosette
on her blouse she herself had created
on a foot paddle sewing machine...
copying it off a Cosmopolitan magazine.

The porch's wood was cracked and faded
not a perfect dispay for begonias,
amaryllis, hydrangeas and roses 
that Helen watered on drought days 
to perserve them, never to be whitered
by a lack of rain when the grass yellowed.  

A staircase led to her bedroom kind of mystique, 
the queen bed was covered with macabre art linen sheets
and had a wrought-iron bedframe almost an antique;
often Helen heard whipers of folks who had lived 
there, and she wondered if it was her imagination or dread:
" Dead people are harmelss, only living people harm others! "

No garden in that neighbohood was prittier than hers,
sweet Alyssum, purple Ageratum, white Alemone growing 
under Japanese maples and strawberry trees so tempting
made it so harmonious and so lively that amazed others;
would it been complete without the merry warblings
of the canaries,of the mockingbirds and of the wrens?

The roof shingles needed replacement, they often fell down on piled logs,
and Helen stocked them up neately in a corner to save money later on;
her income was kind of low and expensive utility bills kept on coming in, 
the pension her husband left her was spent on food, not on luxury goods.

When rain fell the front lawn and garden became fens able to transform
their loveliness, hundreds of leaves were left by the last tropical storm;
and Helen was saddened staring at the devastation of the lovely grass,
only the day before she got rid of those ugly weeds hiding the wild violets
and the crimson clove along the fence where birds built their nests...
I can imagine how helpless she felt seeing such devastation in minutes! 

The faded timber door fought severe winters and they lasted night-long,
spring brought pleasant days, it stood open to greet their fragrance;
no thief invaded a house protected by good spirits and benevolence,
God was there and that made Helen feel at home where she belonged.

Cheph 111: Chapter 6ix

CHEPH 111: Chapter 6IX
The Matron IOLA
She was frowning at the bulkhead “How does this THING even Fly?”
It looks just like a giant dandYlion seed released into the wind.
The “Amaryllis Two” just sat glistening in the sun the primary one 
Newtonia the third Earth from the sun.  MarYlin Mist puckered her lipps, 
she has lisped a bit from her youth she has had it from a child a little lisp from 
the left of center smile. “Hello this is the MATRON IOLA”, she said not unkindly.
Bostonia has lost its most pleasant Matron, welcome to my IOLA to thy new 
home Oh IOLA. IOLA neared the access ramp which was lowering she looked 
just like a dear roe deer caught in a rubber tramp camp in the headlights of a 
pickemup truck. Yes, but how does STOKKER make it run? Charlaxandroidone
The hydrogen and the water is converted from the water than the water is 
reconverted to assimilate into FUNCTION. It is rally quite complicated eye can do 
the mathematics of course and so can MarYlin Mist she is a mathematician’s 
dream a nerd of ample proportions OH CHARLAX MARyLin
said just stop confusing the MATRON she is a newby just let her learn her duty. 
On board THIS ship is pleasantness. Let STOKKER tell her He is so much 
smarter now that he is sober. He knoes how to run this ship EYE paused
And did not tell her how STOKKER had failed to seal the damaged damper but 
eye had let him alone then later fixed the resealer my self alone. 
It is a secret process developed in 2004 by Charles Beau ford. How the 
Hydrogen can be taken from the water and the water that remains then converted 
back to portable potable water again. STOKKER does not even knoe
the process said charlaxandriodone. STOKKER was near the machine the new 
TELEX machine intently recording his hydrogen damper manual again the eye of 
this androidone was pleased. This is MATRON IOLA she will be riding to CHEPH 
111 with us on the “Amaryllis Two”. MarYlin Mist went into the control room the 
ship was at halffull capacity of the water UTUBE and the Hydrogen was almost a 
third to the BARS.  The Crew was now ready for the trip into the stars.

My Love Lies Bleeding (Part I)

My love lies bleeding among the meadowbeauties, purple, 
entangled by hairy caltrop around her delicate feet and ankles. Climbing upward, 
its thistled fruit prick my fingers and palms; as I unsnarl the dodder from her full 
lips, its stems strengthen around her sultry paps and loins, and the binds tighten 
around her slender arms and hands, forced to the base of her back. I strip their 
adherence from leeching upon her naked form, all the while cursing myself 
within, and the puncturevines mysteriously vanish at her side.  
                     I see the small spikes have left their marks.  Then, I unveil her face 
hidden by her tresses in a blue mist. My heart pounds for her; my eyes rush like 
the nearby stream, and my bare body collapses upon her with a firm embrace.  
From where did this evil come?  To where did those spiny heads go?  What 
opportunity did they find to rush upon her?  For my love never trembled or 
tottered; she was never in idleness.  She is young and beautiful, but now my love 
lies dying among the meadow rues, the ravens walkaway.   Onlook the 
meadowsweets and the lark, who consoles my lovesick heart, as I prepare to 
gather up her limp body.  
                   Folding her arms across her breast, I cradle her neck and crown of 
black curly locks with my left arm, and with my right arm under her sculptured 
legs, I lift her out of the soft furrow.  The colorful ribbons we had tied in her hair 
bounce and sway as I walk the distance to gently lay her figure upon the altar (the 
same altar to which she had been led to me) coiled with ornamental shrubs of 
flowers in cymes, snowdrops and aster florets.  
                   Within the garden's border of thornless rose bushes, I wash her body 
with the evening dew fallen upon their petals, likened to silk cloths.  Longingly 
and lovingly, I wail before her on my kness; gazing upon her, coupled with the 
heady scent of jasmine, I am held captive there, but urgency frees me to rise and 
leave her body well-gaurded by an array of gladioluses, amaryllis and 
sansevieria.

My Amaryllis

Wrote this for the contest but was to late as usual, guess the jokes on me.



My Amaryllis

Amaryllis your beauty so profound's me in the early spring
Brings off a beautiful scent as if your could initially sing
Calming effect for one and all to view and fully able to see
Developing in beauty among my flowering garden brightly
Eternal youth as when you were first a tiny ball of a bulb
Forthright to watch every step of the way as if you were small dub
Given off a profound beauty for at this special time of the year
Heartfelt color like a simple shepherdess goddess living so bright and 
                                                                              near
Initially, your color invites all to want see and one and all to pick
Joyfulness in watching you grow, so, so pretty and quite slick
Keeping my flower garden so bright and colorful and real red
Loveliness and learning beside my garden view of my floral bed
Meandering and meeting of all my flowering floral flowers
Nourishing them all as if they were like my children with powers
Often I pick some to make a special floral ensemble
Precious beauty now sits on my dining room table
Quickly I water them with my plant's herbal nourishment
Readily they flourish and spreads off a beauty of sweet scent
Spreading great beauty to all my family and friends
Timeless I hungrily talk to them and offer stories of pretend
Ultimately my family love's this beauty of red flower my Amaryllis
Vibrant hues I extremely appreciate with all my enthused happiness
Welcoming this Shepherdess Goddess while I'm so close and near
Xavier will be coming over and be my loving partner so quiet dear
Yearly I pot and plant my favorite plant this lively Amaryllis
Zestily, I drink and water it with care for she is my queen plant I really 
                                                                must confess.

The pilots name was Marylin Mist she was tall and a nerd with glasses and short 
hair parted in the center not too tall but not short at all she wore her flight suit 
loose and was all business. The orders had come in from Central "
"the new star system has a planet 
OBIRON star system 111 has a third sun with a third planet intact 
We are not kidding you Mary (short for Marylin) {a nickname for the stake of this 
story and my poetic liscence is in place) ed.note. 
Mary Mist the planet is called Cheph 111 after the name of the chef on the diner 
of the spacestation in orbit around OBIRON 111. 
We are counting on ewe to get a good crew and fly your white needle nose ship 
the "AMARYLLIS TWO". 
Take as much time as you need your credits are trillions. 
For this trip you are on now there will be no 
More communication with earth

For this trip you are on now there will be no

MarylYn the transmission is garbled just continue your mission this has been a 
recorded mess.................................... 
She carefully turned off her laptop and read the latest CHARLAX poem she loves 
the way this poet makes his Private stories to be poems. Then she carefully 
makes her way into the Newtonian City of Bostonia to recruit the crew for her 
infamous star shippe. 
This is the first installment of this epic book poem a science fiction classic hint

Stokker was angry ITS NOT FLOWING he almost shouted his face was red and 
he looked beaten like a charlaxoneandroid after a hard fight. WHERE is the 
HYDROGEN??? 
Calm down I'm the voice of reason there is always a reason check the damper 
again mabe you just confused it and it's not completely sealed at all??? Stokker 
looked at me so thoughtful and he sighed a very different man he seems what 
wonders sober seems to be. 
He walked back to the damper and carefully reshut it making sure by touch and 
feel that it was sealed and finally with an awful evil hiss the hydrogen began its 
journey to the holding tanks near the engine where the awful accident had 
claimed the "Amaryllis One". 
On a much different and a longer day the poet will relate that story to ewe all. 
MarYlin had gone into town with some of her friends she was recruiting the 
mother of the ship the lady we need to make the little things we do in 
housekeeping. 
She was looking for a tall matron an older woman with a disability perhaps lame 
in just one foot and tall just like an Indian. The hydrogen would now take some 
several days to work into the holding tanks so off went Stokker to the shower. And 
the androidcharlaxone went to his storage place to do what androids do there in 
there place. 
I hoped the matron that MarYlin has picked is brown of hair and just some gray 
and likes this android after all is said and done for space can be a long long fun 
journey on an interstellar craft like the "Amaryllis Two".  Where love is true.

Stokker threw the damper switch and got out of his hot suit in recorded time. The 
hypertexttransfer was completed. 
The water began to reach the hull where it would expand to circulate in the 
UTUBE to cool the hull and from time to time shower the MIST girl. The stokker 
also for he was now reformed would shower and fill his larder with the life giving 
stuff. We believed in groking water. The “Amaryllis Two” would soon be fueled 
and ready for the transfer point. 
The stokker looked up so thoughtful. He spoke. Very unusual for him to bother to 
speak to me the CHARLAX android one.  When it is time to toss the damper for 
the hydrogen fuel transfer please attend me. Eye had to smile at his seeming 
formality while in the reality of the carbonated mind of this android was no smile 
forming. 
WHY.? The question paused the stokker. 
The ship will attend to that. He smiled a  knoeing smile eye was just trying to see 
iff any part of yew was still a human. 
Of course   not   eye paused now. 
Eye will come get yew for the transfer of the fuel. 
Even stokker seemed surprised. 
OKAY he sighed and went into his cabin. 
Hypertexttransferprotocolhyperdrive had been invented by Charles Beau ford 
Only four years ago about the same day that MARYLIN MIST had lost her first ship 
and yes that story will also soon be told so please kind reader stay tuned to this 
same channel to consume the poem of the poet the kind and gentle CHARLAX 
one. And it will seem so fun.
