Slavery, a dirty word no matter how it’s pronounced:

To be tossed in chains below deck on the Portuguese ship Tecora,2
Sailing the Atlantic Middle...

Son Say Goodnight To Grandpa
“Son”...”say goodnight to grandpa”

Spurred by mother dearest 
as well as other politesse
drummed into her second born
fobbing blandishments as incentive
tumbled off fingers of prodigal son
tripped wordsmith to splutter forth
forthwith the following lines.

Back in the day

“Strange Creatures and The Forest of Egregore” 

Where do we go -

when our rosebuds
stop still in the cold,
unwanted, 
along the unopened road?

we walk into the 
forest alone, 
there we meet 
strange creatures -

some say

"Fraudulent"



A writer writes of people 
walking lonely dark streets
begging for bread, shelter and cold without all

like he’s been there
trudging up and downhill knocking on doors 
that judgmentally remain closed after glimpsed twigging -

a monumental fail,...

The problem of PolyNomials,

SS SULTANA

Premium Member No Cure For Adhd
Interwoven in my DNA
Disjointing chain links
Always lopsided
Never any balance
Overreacting
Overly emotional
Distracted by everything
One day somewhat normal

Super friendly one moment
As reclusive as a funnel web spider the next
No way to truly explain
It's like...

Premium Member Blinks Through Bloodshot Walks
When at five-thirty
In the rubbed-eye haziness
Of ferreting lonesome night walks

Asleep in the half wakefulness

Peers out of his high turbanned sockets:
Hyde Park's through road links
London's diurnally estranged couple -
The Arch and Gate.
