Long Gymnastics Poems

Some people wind up with twisted knickers
When they get insulted by nitpickers
Words are sticks and stones
Causing moans and groans
When they hear heckling whispers and snickers

Women used to call knickers 'underpants'
They'd get them twisted with tauntings...

I swung with a vengeance but missed that damned fly
The breeze I’d created caused him to pass by
My electric racquet in underarm mode
Still failed to make that bluebottle explode

It filled me with hate as it...

Ran into an old friend 
just the other day.

Has to have been
50 years
another way.

She made that big mistake
of asking what I've been up to.

Well, I've been studying
systematic multicultural theology
and, then, regenerative ecology.

Oh,
that sounds nice.
Probably keeps...

The runway runs into her trained eyes
like a roadway that rushes red
into the dreams of her electrified soul,
she's so pretty in her disciplined perfection
a young body that knows years of rigor and ritual

Buttered Fields
 
It was early when she was tickled awake
as light eased under the eaves
to trickle through a sigh of curtains,
to whisper across the bedroom floor,
to nudgingly nestle beside her…..and beam!
 
Outside the sun had...

God sees all
feels all
no limits
no barriers
to His sense of worth
and being -- made the ultimate
love sacrifice, created a humanity
from His Own Spiritual Substance -- 

made the ultimate love sacrifice
gave His Image freedom

we are the reflection...

Three cheers for the damsel
Who despite numerous reverses
Smiles for souls who fell
In love upon assimilating vivid verses

Which struck cores and stores of emotions
Moved to mercy bereft of ecstasy 
Stimulating motions and demotions
Sometimes driven to a...

When her turn came around it always me she would choose

BECAUSE OF JUST ONE POETESS

I let go of living in sadness.
My life seemed going nowhere,
and looking back now, it all
seemed like madness!

It wasn't because she did
gymnastics with boorish 
poetic forms.
Nor was she cute or wordy.

Sky deep dark
Flash of lightning;
Teary weather

~~~~~~~~~


Mahjong game
Mental gymnastics;
Feel tile speak

Words come
By this sidewalk;
Old friends meet

Joy wears a face
Happy moments;
Family mahjong

~~~~~~~~~


Baby shower
Floral colours;
Infant fast asleep

~~~~~~~~~


Background noise
Pulse of cheer;
Happy applause

~~~~~~~~~


New flavours
Keto diet plan;
Purge all carbs

~~~~~~~~~


Rain invigorates
Park walkway;
Foliage...

A Creator Variation (1)

Part I:
When I was four and
You, precognizant either of our DNA or
An epidemic rippling through the stomach fat of the nation,
Enrolled me in gymnastics, I was
Not so young that I didn't know

Kathy rides the bus 
an hour each day
to reach the club
saving her pennies;
last week 
the phone company
shut her off
less than  a month overdue
but they keep
single mothers 
on edge.

Tall and lean 
and yes still lovely...

I have a devotion
To damned emotion
It's like locomotion for a masochist
Who is ironically a pacifist 
I'm not always passive
But my weight makes me massive
I cut dreams from the sky
Bled from stars asking why
But really I...

In Rio Olympics in hundred meters in just 9.81 seconds
