Norwegian Bachelor Farmer Days I Never Lived
Norwegian bachelor farmer days I never lived

Woebegone and egg foo young on you

never fending for myself,

Premium Member The Formidable Gambit
"The Formidable Gambit"



Silence 
calculated and distinct

conspiring with rules
plays within the 
confined squares

of a strict and
ruthless mind
preying on all moves

untraceable 
unpredictable 
irretrievable 

in the opening move
the long-legged fly
is caught in the web

silvery and slippery 
life remains...

Ever since being a little gull hubble buoy,
I bobbed (while donning square pants)

Now as one decrepit
humble lumpenproletariat neopoet,
I experienced existence
with pronounced...

The Bill of Rights, Part Ii

Describing things they will seize.

From whatever place we may be hiding,
For it is one precious gift we all...

No Heavenly Delight For This Atheist
Bleak existence portrayed,
nonetheless this (baby 
boomer) hybrid dreamer
oft times evocative 
edenic reveries bekiss
mine psyche with pastoral trappings
evoking utopian bliss

on par with drawing 
winning lottery ticket,
which fantasy I quickly dismiss,
where dolorous voices within me hiss
mocking pipe...

Beth met James on the nudist beach, 
Splashing and crashing around.
He had revived her with mouth to mouth, 
After she’d nearly drowned.

And Bruce met Frank on the nudist beach, 
Sunbaking on the sand.
They’d rubbed lotion...

It Was Just Another Ordinary Day
It was just another ordinary day
Scattered notes are all over the place
Drums trying to maintain a certain beat
Guitars either strumming or singing 

Violins studying their scales and arpeggios
The piano pouring out its player’s soul 
Clarinets...

Love's Suicidal
A final request for forgiveness 
before I lay me down to sleep
My mind fills with caustic fumes
retracing perfumes once consumed
it was her scent I yearned to 
roll around my tongue like a 
connoisseur of fine wine
Amused by muses,...

The Nightingale and the Swan
Colours bounce in euphoric ecstasy
and another day is birthed, in melody,
as the dawn brings forth emerald reflection,
the sun playing on the looms of nature's glee
with the nightingale's whistle in a harmony.

Dull on it's perch,

Replaceable
An outsider required, to maintain relations
Reasons of difference, bonds of similarity
Joy felt, compensating for years of hollowness
Blood thickens, only through supplement.
Spoken lies laughed off, through mockery
Signs of clarity, distorted by unwilling eyes
A voice of reason,...
