Long Flamboyancy Poems

He drifted into town
on his faithful quarter horse called Moose
who had a three-legged gait 
which gave him saddle sores
when drifting from town-to-town.

A desert wind hit them hard,
he pulled his cowboy hat further down his face
so...

It was almost at the middle of my teen-age days,
When mind, like a horse without bridle, found rough ways;
Inner laissez-faire, like snake in dilapidated crack, set in,
Legs, the way they found, aimlessly, anywhere broke-in;
Parents and...

painted ladies

over the years i have forgotten her eyes
that her smile was soft
and her hair like chiffon on a wednesday morning

we walked along stanyan street
celebrating the colors of a fall morning
listening to simon and garfunkel

The left side of my brain a kaleidoscope of hues, 
pinks and purples, yellows, reds and blues.
All shades for each crazy mood I choose,

At Rio David stole solid gold in boccia,
With a score of 5-0, won it unquestionably,
Flashing punk blue hair, his hairdresser,

through the high ceilinged corriders of...

The land lays  in calm tranquility

Saints, gargoyles, Kings and imps,
mix, match and mingle.
The beatific and the ogres

“ULTERIORITY”

“Ulterior” motives and hidden meanings
Poets pen pieces-- revealing feelings
Sometimes hidden—predominantly exposed
Often the two, inevitably—juxtaposed

Robert Frost first coined this phrase
“Uteriority”—ambiguity, repeatedly betrays
Our existence completed for your amusement
Anonymity disguising inferiority-- improvement

 Portraying sincerity as we donate our...

With such feminine flamboyancy
this maiden sways in breathtaking  movements
flashing, flitting, flaming a sweet minuet--
beneath a mural of moonlight’s alchemy,
her flared gown fair as sequined feathers
that midway, in birdsong's  sultry  melody,
