Dispense sing with fidelity blithely agog
just me and mine dark shadow 
slinking along outer limits of

Premature irrelevance of Donald Trump?

Heartfelt congratulations
to Raphael Warnock,
now slated to become
first Black senator of Georgia
cuz he defeated Senator
Kelly Loeffler quite a shock
as troopers fuel related headlines
Jon Ossoff also declared victory
over Republican Senator David Perdue

What is this charm that others have?
Magnetic attraction and attention grabbing,
Playing the room like the Pied Piper of Hamelin.

Fire Escape Dreamers

They see only what they need
That desire to see beyond
The heat and squalor
The effrontery to our species' senses
The sentient beings whose 2nd bedroom

Sinister snarling swindling scandalous scoundrels secretly slither shamelessly
Implicitly interrogated ‘bout innermost insidious illegitimate impertinences

Obnoxious oppressors outrageously ostracizing offspring to oblivion
Facetiously fondling...

Deep, deep in the...

and misfits
I was born looking for a word
inside a clock.

Back then, time ticked loudly,
clocks ran faster than chipmunks. 
Young bones were fueled by green grenades
plucked from low-hanging life-lines.

I needed words...

Stifle fears, sharpen psychic spears
Laissez-faire for my lady fair

Go to your nightmares, to your dreams
Immortal scare, scorching screams
You were my all; I let you fall

oblivious of tribes who blissfully dealt without a fuss

Your poetry is dark, Mark Strand.
I want to emulate it as I hate
each line.  I want to cast it out,
