Long Flints Poems

HERE. ONCE STOOD OUR HOME

I can't forget in a hurry,
Here once stood our ancestral home,
As was told my great- great- great- grand father
Who told my great-great-grand father,
Who told my great grand father and who 
In...

Five miles of neatly spaced suckered palm planted 
Bustling promenade,
Not withstanding a provincial cafe-culture 
Of restaurants and exciting little bars,
Enhance upon regal elegance of the crammed hotels
Regency period style facades;
Their fashionable shadows slowly lifting and...

I was travelling. I still am, but 
once upon a time I was on my way through 
a particular place. It was north of Wantage 
that I stopped and stepped out 
of my car to...

Blest with wondrous color delight
Fall majestically stands out
Thanking God* midst nature’s praise-shout.

Autumn’s glow does capture spotlight
Exposing iridescent tints
Golden leaves beyond orange flints.

Foliage radiates great sight
Inspiring artists to blend hues
Shades of red, brown, green, yellow views.

Amidst...

The world is at peak-sin,plastic to skin.
Morality has been skinned,left bear by immoral music and gin.
The good exist in flints,doing the positive after artificial suffer-some sprints.

The last hope of leadership has been dissolved,then drained by...

Her eyes were like sparkling emeralds
Her smile could ignite flints into a fire
Her touch sent him wild with longings
His need for her a constant thrumming

When they were together all was fargat
Teasing and cheerings their daily...

Her finger tips runs down my skin like sparking flints of steel

Over the armor flesh covering my chest

Her lips pressing against my tummy, stealing a million volts of my life

Plum covered, pouting petals forming a...

Insurrection of dust
Phantasmagoria of markets
Sagging tiffs
Drunken kisses
Embraces-
                  Obeisance
To the restless wanderer
The once and repeated newcomer.
A monocle
Surveys pandemonium's dais,
Its...

Snow fairy awakens from her sleep 
In a garden frosted in silver 
By a black flowing river 

Hair of cerulean blue 
A gown of snow-white silk 
She flints on gossamer wings bathed in milk 

Perching...

Arms, legs,
fists, feet,
beating chests;
teeth meet.

Stones, bones,
sharp-honed tusks,
poisoned darts;
obsidian clubs.

Slings, arrows,
outrageous bows,
black-edged flints;
sharp-pointed swords.

Red-glare rockets, 
gold knightly spears,
squat-humped cannons;
trebuchets.

Muskets, pistols,
bayonet rifles, 
spitting Maxims;
Tommy guns.

Gray battleships,
deep submarines,
articulated tanks;
V-ones, V-twos.

Experimental Zeppelins,
jet-fighter planes,
flying forts;
atomic bombs.

Poison gas,
Laser rays,
will it ever...

the ribs of falling night
cold flints of a dark path
            a dark curtain
