Feeding lies to the simple folk - convincing in his deception
Telling them they live on toxic farm land - succeeds in striking...

This diary I do not wish to share
For fear that I would be a tortured slave
A servant of a menace though I dare
To let this ink concede the castle's grave
A servant of a menace who...

Each night lurid visions danced before me in the dark
staring with eyes of an eagle, sharp beak of a hawk.
I woke, and in the mirror, my face was white as chalk,
screaming with the brazen voice...

As rippling horizon
douses fiery orb,
you are at your
most alluring.

Ethereal,
diaphanous limbs
stretch out,
reach for me,
beckon to me.
Barely audible murmurs,
laced with
forbidden promises,
cross the distance
between us.

Whispers become
more insistent,
more urgent,
more pressing.
Begging, cajoling,
pleading, coercing,
demanding that I come to you,
that I give...

Vocabulist nonalcoholic punchdrunk stupor January 1st, 2020

Unlike the vast population swath,
with painful hangover
average celebrant merely
doth confusedly blink,
who devoutly pledge
new year resolution
to give up drink
immediately fall off wagon

while forearms link

Will always remember what we had heard,
That was of God and His each single word;
Doubt in my mind,
Could not find,
And my ending up in heaven He reasured.

The emotion neatly swept aside today
Discreetly dealt with, it's alright
I cried out my eye colour during my plight
The only indication of my altered state
Don't talk about it, or...

I am seriously out of kilter with the poetry glitterati,

You again, stopped me, but I did not care.

Realise now I, “how could you then bear?”
You loved me much, now, how...

Fate someday will determine when our days are concluded,
And those who think otherwise are sadly deluded!
Plans were made to ease my crossing with little compunction,
When I shed these earthly shackles and cease to function!
