Apostrophe In Time

water weeps wildly
whilst washing away your
jesting foolery.
I saw the sun annihilated
	Against backdrops of liturgy
Lethargic activity that earns
	It’s title as the Earth’s endearing child
Against backdrops of monogamy,
Pedestrian thinking,
	Accelerated usage,
Lapping up mentalities from bowls of pulled poultry,
Doing...

Insomnia

1am: The clock strikes like bolts of lightning as my brain rapidly

fires neurons creating a torturous play field in my tired mind.

Pangs of loneliness hit me like a full speed train.

My bed feels emptier than...

The Headless Greenlandic Horseman

The Headless Greenlandic Horseman
A Meditation in 6 parts.

Avalanche

The sky is starry
The night is scary
I'm very afraid
of the living dead;

On a mission; or Fugitives in the city

Rambling Poetry

Poetry is tangerine and other potent or poisonous colors.
It is the breath you feel at the nape of your neck and
the strong caress of flesh on flesh, defying death.
It is most certainly Spring with petal...

Buttered Fields

Buttered Fields
 
It was early when she was tickled awake
as light eased under the eaves
to trickle through a sigh of curtains,
to whisper across the bedroom floor,
to nudgingly nestle beside her…..and beam!
 
Outside the sun had...

Ink-Stricken

Somewhere between
vowels and consonants
you disappeared

Although I looked for you
beneath apostrophes
semicolons and quotation marks,

Really
"where are you love" I groaned 
"I'm here, expecting you" I moaned

Commas and fullstops did I leave behind
dash-bridges I hopped over
and question marks...

Mountaintop Lake

My dreary life shunned, a chance to escape;
atop glacial peak, glorious vision.
Oasis amongst the frigid landscape;
found sanctuary, almost Elysian.

Colorful fish dart, despite intrusion,
in clear blue water of idyllic lake.
Grand oaks' enclosure heightens seclusion,
if this be...

It's Possesive

Possessive pronouns get around, these greedy words grab all
though thy words will be just thine, wherever they may fall.

Human Society Is a Textbook

Look at society White or Black-

Echo And Reality

I sing Shahana Bahar, a malody of delight.
It echoed aloud, Marwa, music of sadness-filled plight
I laugh aloud and I hear it back as a scary scream
My gleam of glee turns into hallucinatory dream

Capitalization and Punctuation

Capitalization and punctuation are automatic to me.
It is what I was taught years ago, and I cannot break the habit.

It is difficult to unlearn what...

Bardliner Notes

Don’t do the rhyme if you ain’t got the time.
Nothing is worse than a half-finished verse.
If you want to complete her, you’ll need a good meter.

Repeat Offender (A Gift For Ms. Guzzi)

I have a box with forgotten words
And punctuation seldom used
In this box are synonyms
And grammar I’ve abused

There are commas there and colons too
Apostrophes spilling out the top
But the one thing there that I’ve got most
Are...

Important Apostrophe and a Tenant who is a Mysterious Lady

It should have said St John’s - with that apostrophe!
So many omit the little mark.
How could they, when its presence or absence
gives us one meaning or the other?

A tenant within these apartments

An exclamation mark screams out its cause

Spell-Check

Before you put your writing out
For other folks to read,
There’s one small tidbit of advice
You really ought to heed.

Just double-check your spelling
And use grammar-check as well,
For glaring errors will distract
And possibly, repel.
