One Day

One day not so long ago 
I walked
Never alone
For the world 
Is always my home

It was a late
Spring snow
Yet I felt

Offering sweetest perfume
To my nose and soul

There’s such warmth 
In snow-filled winter
No bitterness
No...

A trunkful of recyclables patiently awaits,

A trunkful of recyclables patiently awaits,

(and cries out long day's journey into night,
no...not for Eugene O'Neill),
but rather being distributed
in their respective bins at Wegmans
Under the Elms

Dressed up in our Sunday finery,
(which attire frankly looks no...

World's End

Part 1

This is a true story about world’s end,
But don’t freak out for it was long ago
God’s message must have been garbled
That the prophet’s prophecy failed you know.

And since those days in fifty eight
Such prophecies...

Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord, his God,
Deep from the belly of leviathan.

For I...

''To Err Is Human: To Forgive, Divine''--Alexander Pope

African-American and abusive, my late step-dad 
     was a reverse racist:
an army sergeant; a Vietnam vet; and, a backhand,
     face-hitting sadist.

I once bemoaned that I was a...

The Missus Discerns a Glimmer of Empathy Within Her Spouse

Finally after twenty two plus
years of marriage,
a husband (namely yours truly -
hitherto known as Matthew Scott Harris)
exhibits glint of care and concern
toward his significant other,
which wife bemoaned
absent expressions of love
particularly before the
honeymoon even occurred.

Still Dithering With Hesitation On Brink of Abysmal Precipice I

Infinite pitch black void zoomed,
I vacillated then pitched headlong
(head and knobby knees, over heels)
where skeletons in shuttered closets roomed,
and antithesis of freedom loomed
large (think) cosmic size grand canyon groomed
courtesy the once mighty Mississippi,
now barely a...

Faustian Bargain

A smashing sound stirs, they “bang the gavel.”
Concessions granted; court begins to unravel.
The eight need votes, an agreement was reached.

The Convict Part 4

Didactic old man
Fiddling with fright
As tears curled down 
From a bemoaned and fretted face
To his foaming lip
The tears thirst bitter taste
Spiced with desired regret
Of an action already finished
Crime begets an accidental skirmish
~
His hands
Those quivering hands
Protective...

Great Expectations

Strolling along through Gumgulli Park
where shadows of trees made it quite dark.
Absorbing birdsong filling the air,
taking in beauty with barely a care.

Some people were out walking their dog,
others were passing me out on a jog.

But she didn’t notice, didn’t feel the same,
Didn’t love like the...

A Modest Proposal

A Modest Proposal

His delicate modest proposal
His idea to save the poor Irish 
Was to make their children disposal

He was lampooning Petty and Bacon
Quite popular upon that year
Their notions of...

Lake Elisa

Lake Eliza
Out by poor old  Lake Elisa lived a moody ancient miser.
Who bemoaned his fate throughout the livelong day.

Maiden's Moonlit Plight

A scream awoke those in the churchyard,
a mad scream from the maiden lain there
From death she awoke in the dark crypt
From cold death and so full of despair.

Shrouded she’d lain ‘pon altar of bone,
So deep...

Last night, we both mourned the demise of tranquility 
We yearned in futility for that quietude 
That made our spirits flutter 
We bemoaned the annihilation...

The Singer's Cloak

The singer sang from beyond the grave,*
Or in his grave, to be true.
His voice reached up to the architrave
And vibrated in every pew.

The vicar called on the choir to sing
As loud as loud they could.
But...

For  centuries,  it matchlessly stood
This Nair baron’s mansion made entirely of wood,

From the chief carpenter who was sort of...
