Long Covens Poems

I'd like to apply for a permit
for a protest march
on the Washington Mall.

Lovely idea.
But, we're only issuing Mall permits
for Song and Dance Events.

I think this might be a violation of my Rights
to Free Speech.

Once upon a ZeroTime
we suffered great terror and loss.

People,
animals,
and plants
refused to speak kindly with each other
because of a Big Bad Wolf
named Ms. Climatic Change 
by her delightfully demented transparents.

Most all credible scientists in that day
were...

  In the meta-versed binaural wish song beats, 
skid row streets of the bottomless pits of Metropolis/ Thebes, 
you are quardoned off and printed in a likeness 
wronged-vaped, winged
to the wilderness by their covens,...

I can see
All the way from in here

That the fate of the world is on a precarious knife-edge

The black-robed vultures
Are gathering 

In secret covens and lodges
For their Great Cull

Carefully planned and patiently waiting

On their gilded...

   In the Abaddoned depths of Faith's cosmos, 
a delusion of grandeur 
and of wonder blunders in awe, 
puts its hook securely in blasphemers jaw.
Curiousity opens Hell's salivating maw,...

You're "afraid" to get out and cast a vote, 
but not of rioting in the streets.

You say you champion diversity,
but take away fetal rights to be.
(At the evolving life-point of no return,
(Scientifically))
Would you protect the...

POETS ARE POOR


Omawumi birthed venom yesterday
She won't marry me again because
I am a poet, she said poets are poor
Is my pen not worthy to buy her make up?
If poetry gives no money I will still...

This family I was born in was assigned to destroyed my life
I presently can't rent an apartment, be sheltered or work
So many lies has been told to keep me from prospering
Identity theft, fraud, forgery, false...

The yam was divided into four slices by nature,
But the whole was given to the cows by the whites 
and the sheep neglected in the drain of lacks.
There was never unity in the buharificated land;

Bubbling babbling burbling banter from the bar..

Sup hush….memory lane trip...Proustian rush..pleasingly tickled. 

Plushly ebbed…spidery beer swirls webbed…lace whirls..grace dimpled dappled jar..

Venerate yesteryear dips…commemorate Faustian fillips....teasingly pickled..

Flame-featured twilight, illuminate fast!
Young are the dreams of humanity vast!
Age is a mystery museums kept.
Poets and prophets in agony wept...
Core of the harpsichord, pyramid-shaped.
Moorlands and moonlight black lined and blue taped.
Volcanic spark flowing downward like...

Red cats, black dogs, yellow birds in the morning
Visions and dreams were an ominous warning
That witches were brewing in Salem that year
As terror of covens filled townsfolk with fear
Tituba, the slave, then Lizzie the vagrant

Profits push political power, 
As they gather to make plans.
Like witches in their covens each hour, 
The power of black masses spans.
Increases industries interest, no Wall Street crashes, 
Evil leaders plot devastations
Wizards cause frightening fire...

Under the brittle bright cold moon, ice
cold skies far above clouds fly
the metallic worms bore deeply into my side 

they are made by no one but
me and only me alone 
there on the street under...

Lame sunrises and midday sunsets
Fangs in words and perils in laughters
Sweet archs of smiling fires and silky shouts in talking forests 
I come from the bitter of cobstones paved down the coalfield 

Broken lutes and...

It was May Day and Beltane was the time
Druid Arwn with flowing mane his Grove did call
With upraised arms he did chant in ancient rime
The Sun God ascendeth, but the Solstice marketh his fall!

The Long Last Summer’s Past
By David J Walker

The shrilled ring of the
School bell
Was the first call of
The last days of another  
departed summer

The boys laced on new
Tennis shoes
The girls tried on 
New dresses

The sleepy...

Threefold darkness !
A mystery by which creation
Received light that frees mankind
From stronghold of darkness

It started with the son of Amittai
Who needed three dark nights in a fish
Deep in the belly of Ocean
To save a city...

He steps into moonlight, strings ablaze,  
A spell-bound master in a midnight haze.  
Notes crack like lightning, dark flames rise,  
Echoes twisting through spectral skies.  

From covens deep and forests old,...

God made the stars
Man made the cars.
God made the skies
and made man wise.

God made the fish,
man made the dish.
God made the Sea
man made the tea.

God made the moon,
man sweats at noon.
God made the earth
and gave...

The mine drowned the holler,
many reallocated
to trailer parks along the Interstate.

The school dwindled,
ran out of children
became a garage for dead trucks,
then a beer barn, then a Meth lab,
bubbling feuds resurfaced -
shotguns aimed at open secrets.

Retro thrusters, smokey hot,
Thunder in the dim of night.
Sprouting things all green and broke,
Mutant brains are taking flight.

Mole like beasts with huge blind eyes
Push and pour from glowing holes.
Corpses scream with undead cries.
Gelatinous blobs expand...

Summer Solstice 

Abundance of fruits on summers days
How grateful are we for the sun’s rays
And at Solstice, the height of thanksgiving
Because The Earth we eat sweet melons
The highest northern point on it shines
The zenith point...
