(Excepting present company, of course!)
When editors reject my poems, did I slip...

The Secret Lives of Chimney Pots IvPied tidings of suburbian
Magpies,
Squawking and squabbling,
Quarreling ferociously among
Themselves -
Rush to steal
From off the beleaguered bird
tables,
To the annoyance of all concerned,
A much begrudged meal;
Before scurrying away into
Unfrequented woodlands,
Marooned like islands in...

Blood and StainsThere is a sadness in her smile,
a sorrow that conceals itself within
the curl of the corner of her lips.
It's like watching someone discover
the
small good in a series of bad
memories.
There, she sits,...

Battle for the Atlantic IIWith lone intent, all freedom it will wrest
if obstinance you let these wolves deny.
As tonnage sinks beneath the torrid crest

Each flailing ship that ferries surety
is fodder for the fathoms of abyss.

Transmutation
As the peacock-sage
waves of whimsical peace
faded in silence's
pale watercolors,
I masked my
eerie eyelashes,
with drifting
angel-mist smog.
For, I sensed the
wistful wailings of
ambrosial lilies,
encased in my
heart's crystal casket,...

Confronted By HeartYour ropes are a fuzzy memory

Vast clouds kneel before your desuetude.
A thin smile that conceals deceit
A halcyon...

Thy vain struggles will count no
Valour.
All hope now abandoned,
Imminent defeat unconcealed;
Erstwhile countenance display
Such waxen, languid pallor.
Surround by your dwindling
Forces
Ye will but sadly find...
That the stout keep of your...

The View From a WindowA view of the ragged woodland from
The window:-
Slender branched trees that shed
From high above to low below;
The faint, mauven peaks
Smattered with barely visible
Scatterings of drifted snow;
Across the matted undergrowth
A bronzed carpet of copper coloured
Leaves
Whose rusting...
