Long Cretins Poems

I never told anyone how my ears reverberate in a silent room.
The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces.
This is my cohabitation with an industrial generator.
But I’ve graduated from the torment.

The Cottonmouth King

I, The Cottonmouth King creep 
out from under my rock; 
I penetrate the depth of your soul 
Blood runs on damp streets 
claiming another life

gently
before me

on a desk, or a table
rests the means to enable
me to craft a new fable
to run and leap like the sable

even with the...

Blunt deadly weapons of mass destruction
electrify, fracture, and
jeopardize Homo Sapiens
species (and entire biosphere)
continuity rent asunder

doomsday declared (nuclear winter
gallows humor spelt
with eternal snow day)
dystopian authors outflanked
nuclear fallout wreaks worst

rocky horror picture
effected upon mankind
global (worldwide)
big screen radioactive

Fancy jets and drones are flying
Bombs are falling and raining
Killing innocent civilians
Burning and destroying homes
Hotels, churches and tombs
People are starving and suffering
While dictators and cheaters are trying
To join the Martians
Those heartless cretins and imbeciles
Are ordering...

believer’s death guilt

when a loved one dies
whilst wallowing in that
savage cesspool of religious
belief---whatever batch it 
might be---there may very well
be those especial cretins who

“Go west young man”, the neighbors said; but they wisely stayed at home.
From pianoforte to pianoforte, saloon to saloon, town to town I roam.
Surrounded by Phillistines, “soiled doves”, cowpokes, and dullards,
Gamblers, dealers, dance hall girls,...

Father.
Mother.
Brother.
Sister.
Aunt.
Uncle.
Cousin.
Grandfather.
Grandmother.
And friends.
Ashes is ashes,Dirt is dirt,Skin is skin,
And blood is thicker then water.

No matter how many lines,obstacles and curses
I'll come running with words of undoubtedly trust.

I took on a task that I knew I could win.
and threw myself headlong in terrible sin,
to manage a firm that abused all it’s staff,
robbing them daily and kicking their ass.

I'd been living for years with dysfunctional peeps
It was when, and not if, I would murder the creeps
They completely deserved it, you'd better believe
And their deaths were not hardly an item to grieve.

The group would TRAVERSE the universe in search of worlds comprised

Limit my offspring, choose my wife
Write me a pamphlet explaining my health

(After Charles Baudelaire)

Many a time, to amuse themselves, the sailors 
would trap an albatross, make it a slave. 
(These ruffians manned those old-time deep-sea whalers, 
resenting, but indented to, the waves). 

The moment that an...

He wed her nation too 
And very soon as man and wife

Your futures dissolve and fortunes free fall.
Critics add nothing but choice caterwaul.
Stand up and resist or do nothing at all.

In a small town of 800 the lonely town where children never sleep
Hardly can anyone imagine them ever being sweet

Others are found juvenile delinquents breaking into...
