Premium Member Alice, What's Going On
Alice, did th' afternoon grow long an' dull; 
As your older sister did read an' mull? 
While in your mind, boredom grew- 
That you'd grown restless no one knew! 
That's what came before th' fall-...

A Memorable Vacation, 1990
Summer of 1990,
Ill winds had blown all year,
I was feeling kind of battered,
I lived in constant fear,
Mother died, left my cheating wife,
Lost my job, no more value to life...

My last lifeline was my father,
In deepest...

Wits of a Man
The night was frigid and at its poorest,
But who am I to judge, when I was not the wisest,
A slight breeze crawled up my spine,
I could taste the wind’s saltiest brine.
My eyes conveyed to an...

The Barghest's Monody
Therewithal, profluent life ettles it's while.
Thitherward, from Death's bleak campanile
Grim antiphonals serenade.

A capriccio, the slashing swipe of the reaper's scythe
 will serenade.
Stringent Death forthwith anoints the mithridate to
Life's cantankerous and rankling ado

Hither now come, anon...

Presidential Inauguration 2017 - Poetic Screed - Part1

of White House clutches levers with brass balls
American powers remain unrestrained when he calls
Armada to exorcise imagine aery dragons, 
   he inarticulately falls

Mikaela
I

You died at 22; left me alive
At 25 to write this sonnet tomb;
Block letters hewn, with fumbling hands I drive
This pen in metered clangs around your room. 

In desperate pause, I step away to see...

Chuckie Egg
I loved Chuckie Egg because it reminded me of life, 
With its principles which seem many when in strife, 
But which are few, like seven or eight, alive and well, 
Robust, vital and sensuous, and...

Premium Member The English Language Ain'T Easy
If you think the English language is easy to speak, 
Perhaps you have a thing, or two, to learn. 
You might say “axed” when you mean “asked” 
When is it appropriate to say “dang,” “darn,”...

In the square of the town, is an old wooden clock
with a movement that only one time has been wound.
You can try to get answers, but no one will talk,
though the rumors of horrible sights...

Unopposed To Camel Toes
Unopposed Camel Toes ( Mono tetra) (Adult)


While watching you promoting clothes
That do away with camel toes
I had misgivings, I suppose
and these are those, and these are those.

It's not so now, but used to be

Grant Us Immunity
Some more of my poems for poetry month.

Grant Us Immunity

God from Trump grant us immunity
Causes trouble with every opportunity
And what we really want to propose
His eroticism and incompetence expose;
Impeach and sooner the better will be.

Praises Himself

A Womans Role
What is it about women
That makes them think their role
Is to deprive their starving husbands
Of the food that feeds their soul

So I’m a few pounds overweight
Really, that’s no big deal
I want to eat the food...

But the seconds continue but for you I still bother
I take the batteries out of every clock
To call on you again and to hear your remark

Premium Member Hot Summer Day
Who knew that we would find a way
To cool ourselves, that summer day
Bored with creating ways for fun
All simmering in the August sun

Workers ruining our vacation

The Building of a Moment
narrative

Precious novelties, rare and unimpaired
reminder of events I'd love to share.
Recalling special trinkets in a hutch
for display only, labeled "Do Not Touch".

Awaiting finding of a misplaced key,
a new piece tempted curiosity.
Too precious to ignore, my...

Mentally unbalanced and also unfit
With bad habits they could not quit.

And a bright idea I recently tried to borrow
Must be careful making sure I don't botch
By forgetting to bring along a bottle of Scotch.
