Long Dispensing Poems

“Strange Creatures and The Forest of Egregore” 

Where do we go -

when our rosebuds
stop still in the cold,

regarding weather forecasters prediction,
especially when meteorologist
wannabe spouse doth...

inside-only voiced economies

Edie looks well for her age,
Hard to believe she’s almost 94.
A widow wife these past 72 years,
Lost husband Bill, in the 2nd World war.

Bill was presumed killed in action,

I'm determined to be heard
Through the walls 
Beyond all That 
Deafening windfall

My voice never deterred
Tasking freedom

Offering up hope

I am the force, overheard  
A solid speaker for the mute
Constant presence for the Word

A Witch must confirm the Powers in her possession
Before performing an anticipated condemnation
The guilty Judge, rendered immobile and speechless
Wets himself, cowering, trussed and helpless
As the Witch intones the Powers’ sacred Creed
That she has sworn to...

Right when I thought I had figured things out, 
FEAR sauntered in and introduced DOUBT. 
The twins came over, DISMAY and DESPAIR.

A cryptic message from the uniting nations,
