Long Anachronistic Poems

I smell like pencils in September.
After they’ve been brought to that…to the machine hanging on the closet wall where our coats, our boots, our bags, and nonsense lived.

You stared me in the eyes, since the...

Pleasant spring like day February 9th, 2024

A scent (and sixth sense predominates),
when apple boughs
and other aromatic flora
laden with blossoms and fruit
gently assail cilia of the nostrils,
aside from aiding distinguishing 
pleasant or unpleasant smells 
additionally incorporate...

Today August 29th, 2021 sluggishness dogs yours truly

Forecasting to thunderous applause
fast as greased lightning draws
upon futuristic atmospheric gewgaws
hot air emanates out these slackened jaws
spluttering courtesy indentured maws
armed with four footed tall paws
gesticulations resembling horizontal seesaws....

In a peculiar puny town nestled in western Massachusetts,
There lives an enchanted mansion in the Wilbraham woods,
Hidden in the hills away from the eastern city's pollutants,
Where the creme de la creme masquerades in cowled hoods.

Pleasant spring like day January 12th, 2020

Courtesy climate change
(think global warming),
I would never wish to exchange
unseasonable temperature

far to balmy, undoubtedly

Once thermometer readings rise
even smidgen one moost not minimize

Idioma

There is a man with a gun.
His finger taut,
tensed and still,
the intention obvious,
no reason instilled.

Because guns kill people.
Or do people kill people?
I can never remember.
Let's take a look at entropy.
A molecule hits a molecule

I hear Donald Trump
would love to bring to Republican plutocracy
what Abraham Lincoln represented for civilly warring democracy,
but that anti-enslavement resolution
is too hard for me to focus and sustain
in Trump is DivineTrump Land.

What remains most easily

Look out into the darkness and hear the remnants of cities.

In life things change -
Tables eventually turn.
Emotions spark up
And friendships burn up
As relationships break down
As chains would rust,
But secrets break apart
Bonds rooted in trust.

It was a fire raging rampant;
Fixed only on causing trouble,
Not resting till...

It's too late, beloved, for our dream shattered,
Under the night sky, chimeras have us buried,
Intoxicated with illusions, wrapped in cigarette perfume,
On deserted streets, we are shadows of dreams unfulfilled.
We're lost in the labyrinth of forgotten...

Gate and Column

Enea celebrates the wedding of Frederick and Leonor

He owned a benefice “out there”, beyond Ravenna,
but now, in middle age, he’s coming home.
The action’s moved to native-town Siena,

though interspersed with roistering in Rome.
The countryside...

It is said that the world is quite strong. 
When we both agreed, we were wrong. 
But systemic risk leads to a spare call. 
And it makes life hazy, as we shall.

When weak surfeit fulfills incisive inquiry,

At a party, a restaurant or in line at a store
And the conversation turns to last names 
I respond politely
When they ask
What nationality is that?
The question strikes me as...
