Long Diva Poems

As I look back across more musical times
of rhythmic reflections,
ceremonies and commemorations
of each dawn and dusk eremitic liturgy,
if that is not an oxymoron

song and dance,
tragically sad, yet also bilaterally bound with happier...

I’m lunching with my bestie Mylie
She’s upset and no longer smiley
I ask her what’s wrong
She said in my thong

So I was feeling badly,
sad,
because I share our mutually complicit status
for my compatriot's difficult terrorizing
chronic stress disordering
time.
I too have been there,
lost there,
to a more moderate extent.
I just walked away.

I wish I had done more at...

Love wants nothing to do
with the everyday affairs of men.
Love's only intention
is to catch the lover!

God wants nothing to do
with the routine affairs of men,
God's only intention
is to catch the lover's attention!

I wonder if Freud's...

In glamor-light of sunset
a new crowd of cumulus clouds arrive
and revive a sepia sky-scene—
unworldly woolgatherers gather
spinning fantasy fluff into quixotic yarns
of debutantes dancing with honeymoon hunger;
their dewy eyes blurred by the sawdust of stardust

Neither a dream nor a trick, I beguiled--
I reach the sky enameled with golden smile.

this steadfast being yearn to step on a pedestal,

If Thou take not our hands,

our organic inside lives
flowing out emphatic love

to fear,
to feel tired,
retired,
weary,
untreaded,
worn.

When I try to sing this earnest prayer
with only my heady voice
from the...

There are many pig-type stories,
Mostly told in piggy fables.
Most are cheerful little characters,
With "Happy Endings" in their labels.

It's here I'll mention other pigs,
Because all pigs are...

POETRY DIVA’S RHYME SCHEMA

The Story: 

ragged faded 
lady hoarder, 
dumpster-diving 
diva boarder, 
dancin' to the tune 
of her Dandelion Wine. 

milky-eyed maiden,

masticating carnivore, 
toothless, useless whore. 
not on her best night! 
not anymore!
