Premium Member My Writing Runs Along Beside Me

Some days my writing runs along the track next to me.
Sticking out her tongue or wiggling her hips in a provocative way.
My muse is hanging on to this elephant for dear life.
Pretending she is slowing her down, actually egging her on.

Other days my writing sits in my lap and pats me down.
Pat. Pat. Pat. Like a cat who is getting her nest ready.
It is difficult to ignore this, so I pick up my pen if I am able.
My writing starts often in my dreams and finishes right as I awake.

That’s the writing I am the most curious about,
As I almost never am able to capture any of it.
Maybe the last three words 
By the time I return from the bathroom, they are gone too.


Premium Member Dukes, Fops and Trollops

Hellacious howls tickle and titillate 
the trompeleil scene
 in the pastel Court of Kings.

Flamboyancy rings as the 
 fluttering coo of a rapiers dance  in the hands of fops,
through the high ceilinged corriders of castle     in the chill air 
buzzing past the ears
of the mischievous lillipitians,   yearning,
 egging on yearlings with antiquated filigreed foils.

Ludicrousity runs riot
 trolloping in fandango-clicks of hooker-red
across the quilt-stitched batten puffed blazers 
of Dukes and Pimpernels pompously prancing

 before beatific, porcelain, wig-topped dolls 
rouged and hollow-eyed. 

Chroniclers cavort in the manner of angry bees 
on spindle-pins, their stocking encased legs
 pawing at pedagogs who gawk slack jawed.

Only the puncture of flesh-framed torsos
 brings an end to the melee.


*Melee, generally refers to disorganized close combat 
involving a group of fighters.

It's Halloween!

Black cats dart across my path
As I head down the street
Children hide and spook their friends
And all around shout “Trick or treat!”

It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! 
Hear them scream! A scary dream!

Witches gliding past the moon
Riding fast upon their brooms
The dead are rising from the grave
Their restless souls rant and rave

Pumpkins on the fence posts grin
And on the porches frown
It seems tonight like everything
Has been turned upside down

It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! 
Hear them scream! A scary dream!

Some children squeal with delight
While others shriek with fright
What a night!

In these darkest hours, evil deeds are done
Smashing pumpkins, egging houses
Some kids think it’s fun
Oh, what a night!

It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! 
Hear them scream! A scary dream!

Draped in orange, white, and black
Children fill their candy sacks
Door to door
More and more

Little ghosts in sheets
Wander down the street
At each house they collect sweets
Every time they yell “Trick or treat!”

Bats fluttering through the air
Werewolves roaming everywhere
Creepy, crawling spiders
Pumpkin pie and apple cider

It’s Halloween! It’s Halloween! 
Hear them scream! A scary dream!

Premium Member The Greatest Generation - A Remembrance for July 4, 2026

  
  They survived the Great Depression, my parents did
     living from hand-to-mouth for over a decade

  Took any job they could get, and were grateful for it 
     working 72 hours a week for a ‘salary’ of twelve lousy bucks

   My father watched grown men cry and jump out of tenement windows
     ashamed that they could not provide for their families – two or three a day, he told me

    My mother heard ‘dirty Jew’ hurled at her so often
      she became obsessive about washing her hands and face… 

     …Yet when it came time to serve their country
      they were first in line for the privilege of seeing America through WW2

     Fighting side by side with fellow un-hyphenated Americans 
       Jewish or Catholic, from Italy or France – didn’t matter
          Americans all, they fought their hearts out for the Stars and Stripes
              for the land of the brave and the home of the braver

                                                   ******
     
      And now, it pains me to see what we’ve become on the cusp of our 250th birthday
         Capitalists fleeing our signature city, NYC, run by an unrepentant socialist radical

      ‘Woke’ Governors, Congressmen and Mayors giving away ‘stuff,’ 
          Free health care, free college, free food, free rent, free bus service, free, free, free

       The greatest public misfit of any age, Bernie Sanders, the cheerleader egging it all on
          And the devil himself, George Soros, quietly financing the destruction of the country
             America! that saved his life, granting him refuge from the Nazis

                                                  ******

        May my mother and father, and their entire generation, rest in peace knowing they made
          America great once and made us all so proud.

Premium Member Transitional Illuminations

"As I leave
this compound body
of flesh and blood
I will know it to be
a transitory illusion."

Could transitory
embodied illusions
become mindbody gateways
toward transitional systemic illumination?

Could hybrid mind/bodies,
sacred/secularized thoughts,
spiritual/naturalized neurological feelings
of attachment
to harmonic self/other resonance
ego/eco-perpetuating
inside/outside climates of peace
restoring Earth Justice CoAttachment
also become CoOperative sensory experience
of Integrity's Universal Promise?

Could climax of death's Yang loss
also predict Yin's deeply seeded memory
of passionate fulfillment
as inevitably healthy DNA's redevelopment
peacefully, and yet relentlessly, seeding
rooting
breeding
wanting
needing
ungrasping
kneading
egging
bleeding
longing
belonging
edging both in and out
through all past pain and passion people
of Earth's passionate Yang
(compassionate Yin)

Win/Win Promise of enlightened/empowering Earth
Future health-wealthiest Creations
of body-flesh and mind-nurturing blood,
together known to be
Here in space,
Now in conscious bilateral time,
transitional bicameral systems
of Yang loves
what Yin needs
Yang compassion
empowering illuminations.

As I live
this compound body
of flesh and blood
I know and feel me to be,
and yet become,
a Transitional Illumination.


I Refuse

My dignity MUST remain intact 
while i conceal my lack of tact
i will still trust my instinct
to give up my “pleaser” stint

So in this particular instance
i CHOOSE to stay firm in my stance 
against all this negging going on 
Just give over with the egging on

I simply refuse to oblige 
Your offer to indulge 
in the tussle and rumble
inside a mud pen rife in grumble 

I'll have to turn down for now
I  just cannot afford, to allow
you, to nudge me into reacting.
From the way you keep on acting 

i can tell you are really itching 
to rip off all the stitching
where my heart was lacerated
the heat from your hatred 

Is rather daunting for me
your words to this day, haunting me
Yet I refuse to be deterred 
from my path, I won't be deferred 

I'm intent on being true to my nature 
i won’t hand you the aperture 
to have me for your scapegoat 
I won’t let you lay the base coat

to better showcase my unraveling 
Your actions are rather revealing.
they clearly show ill intention 
I refuse to give that any attention 

I'd sooner revel in my newfound peace  
build back my resilience by the piece 
Soon, i will find a home for my presence 
worthy of my energy and essence 

I CHOOSE to align with values, that reflect 
the importance of compassion and respect

Premium Member Keeping Up the Pace

Life is like a galloping horse,
Flying around a track
Faster and faster, he gallops
Too fast to look back

His need to win is crucial,
He cannot afford to lose
If he could communicate
He would refuse

One day when hurtling
Around this long race track
The jockey pushed him too far
And cracked his whip
On the horses back

Faster screamed the jockey
It looks like we might win,
He cracked the whip again
That broke the poor horse's skin

The crowd were all yelling,
Egging the jockey on
Hoping he's a winner
And they'll be rich before too long.

The horse was exhausted,
He had suffered enough
The winning post was very near
But the race had been tough

The rider was feeling jubilant,
He was sure he was going to win
The onlookers thought so too,
Cheering louder, making such a din.

The horse was breathing heavily,
His heart was beating fast.
Sweat was pouring off him,
As the other horses passed

One by one, they passed him,
He was no longer in the race
He died peacefully later in his stable
As he could no longer keep up the pace.

Natural Soporific Narcotic

recurrent suicidal thoughts vain
     gloriously wend 
     (o'er a death cab for cutie weeknd)
     yanking zeal

becalming this crash test dummy rolling 
     stone temple pilot inxs 
     of maroon 5 plus decades long

     slow as adam and the ants,

masterly baiting this motley crue (cutting), 

     beatle browed, beastie boy, 
     outre gee (bee) us, grateful dead,

     cavernous fist size vastness steel

via Herbie Hancock (Hermans Hermits)   
     cheesy Munster trap doors that steal, 
deep purple swiftly tailored 
     culture club members squeal

venue at Tokyo hotel, via en grave invitation 
     signed by Alice in Chains poison huss kiss 
     sing, which will spellbind 

     once contents unveiled, an instant app peal
immediately choking off air supply 
     then Alice Cooper egging bad company 
     to hypnotize the guess who sacrificial meal

supplanting raw primal scream from spinal tap
     acquiescing self to abandon all hope,
especially if black sabbath joins 
     creed dance clearwater revival 

     dark shadows would demand one 
     (to take a knee) and kneel
before sacrificing oneself at the beck and call 
     of evanescent nirvana

My Poem

....My Poem....            
  I dare you not to like "my poem"...not to read my writing...but when you do...you passively read it like it's some child's drawing on the refrigerator....I dare you not to comment on "my poem"...but I know you read it...skimming through my words...waiting for a cute antidote to cure your reading mind....but still not 
having the decency to leave a comment in kind gestures...this poem is for the suggesters who encourages me to keep writing...exciting the reader's mind with my pen to write a no comment response poem again...it makes me shed a tear 
which falls on "my poem" and causes the fountained ink to leave smudges on the sheet of paper...think...this poem is for the poem contest judges...I hate ya...
I enter the contests....follow the rules...but I don't even get a good job comment 
from your views....I  dare you to skim through this poem...and not comprehend 
that I can't stand it when I put my poems out there to make the world of poets 
realize that I am here...aware that I am alive...well enough to write "my poem" 
which gets no comments...but receives reads...4 of them are mine...
but at least i know they were read...thoughts of my words being copied or stolen 
stay circling in my head...but I'll be fine...I dare you not to like "my poem"...but you read it fast enough to know that...I'm not begging I'm egging you on to keep me strong 'til I'm gone..or done with writing...pen to paper...reading mind exciting 
mine to write..."My Poem"

Premium Member Cows on a road

Life

appears as stories

varying in focus~

those more weighty

peace and war

push away a provincial

story of cows on a road~

(and others recorded below)~

It is deceiving though:

each story appears

vanishing immediately 

rendering a sameness

a simple equality

to all stories~and

a sense of freedom

for a fleeting

new year~~
