PIG IN BLUE
I knew a pig in blue
Who liked to tell us what to do
Parading the place, policing the place
And he did bad things few people knew
I knew a pig in blue
A corrupt old guard...

circus chagrin
the crowd dispersed in floods of tears
disappointed that the spectacle was over
when madness resolved and sanity became restored
the clown’s persona now unmasked
make up made down for a grimace
a silent scream half aborted in the arena

Caged Agony
She was caged in his mystery.
Just a glimpse into his soul;
And she saw the anger flow freely.
A father’s blood tainted
And with it came sorrow;
And with it came unspeakable torment.
There was not a person,
That felt the...

Electroculvulsive Treatment
i
Lie back, tilting my head
hunched as if tango
mangoed or like quesimodo
ringing notre dame bells.
The straps cradle me
pinned in a rollercoaster
belted in a fast car,
braced and buckled.
ii
Electrodes are placed
on skin-thin temples.
Gently,...

Epitaph
There lies inanimate a lady who lived within her character
Who I found so ugly when her heart was going pitter-patter;
Her character left no ornamental mark on earth as it was burlesque –
But that was quite...

Saving Liberty
We find Liberty has left us as we left our guard,
allowing hate and dishonesty to prosper unbarred.
We tempted fate, then saw cruelty's depth
as we watched a man die while pleading for breath.
Strong words either left...

Absolute Truth
Absolute Truth
What’s in a word that fades away in time?
Seldom heard like a masqueraded mime
What’s in a name that hides in the shadows?
Of feverous fame where poets compose
May we speak of love this echoing eternal...

Tropical Seahorses
How mysteriously mythical
And mystical you look
Magnificently minute
Maritime majestic migrants
More than marginally manic
Mesmerizing meanderers
Masterpieces
Peacefully going about
Your business
Magical make-believe
Monarchs of the sea
Upright and elegant
In your mannerly march
Moonstruck prone to
Misfortunes and misadventures
Oft mostly monologuing
In monotonous...

Faded
It's been too long since I've picked up my pen,
And yes I still cry now and again,
But the dreams that were so broken,
Aren't so sad in the end.
There have been nightmares that have faded,
Of all...

Children
Children will always remember the void,
They will always recall the hands that couldn’t embrace them.
They will always remember the troubles that nightfall brings,
And the darkness that invades their slumber....

Based on an article I read re neglect in relationships

She moved as soft as a shadow, he barely noticed her,
She whispered like flower petals, he did not hear her.
She smelt of spring morning, yet...

A Window To The Soul
The eyes are the windows to the soul
But I once had my shades pulled down
A mysterious individual difficult to figure
Masqueraded around town as a clown
Always been known as a jester at heart
But some say it's...

Alter Drama
Narrowly down the aisle
Right in from the ancient doors
Elegantly they walked in
In the nuptial knot attire
In the messiah’s mansion
Laid central securedly held
With ornamented holds of the colonnades
Gloriously dignified terrestrial footstool
Down below overlaid
Imposing array of Persian...

Alabaster Night
Untroubled is the quiet night
How peaceful is a world that glimmers white
Frost and moonlight have whipped a silver glaze
And silhouettes of trees are black as ink
The only sign of life are whiffs of breath

Autumn Birds In Sky Thunder
The sky ironed out n da' morning divine
On a November day cold
Celestial rainbows born of peeping sunshine
Cloud dreams rush past unrolled
Under the bare leafless trees
Masqueraded hard to see
A bird lands on a branch'y...

Systematic Escape
Still water… dark water.
The abyss below tempts with its soft laughter.
I gaze to the horizon and its deception
of slavery and prosperous invention.
It warns of the plunge I intend to take…
Many mountains climbed for my life...

Street Cursed
Your stillness captures
the silence of raptures,
their code of ethics
a bond unbroken.
Left standing alone
still and unchangeable,
unwanted, spaded,
shamed and masqueraded.
Desperate for peace,
tearing up the old lease,
dealt so long ago.
Fueled new thoughts of madness
never ending dought,
death, love, and...

A Masquered of Mystery
Venetians masqueraded themselves to hide their identity;
their vagueness was allowed openly,
"Be a Casanova, a Shakespeare, a Hamlet :
all are welcome to join the banquet!"
" Keep your masks on, or you'll be asked to...

Driving down the danger zone my destiny dies in a dead end street
Dragging dilapidated deliveries doing the Damn Demons divine deed
Distance deceives my demented disguise the dumb things I don't do
Decisions divide deep, deep inside...

Five Long Years--Of Double Entendre
My heart has Conditions
It moved off my sleeve--
Five* years ago:
I planned their itinerary
I slept under the sun
Then, Masqueraded in the moonlight--
Just four* years passed:
I stumbled into a sea of aluminum and glass
To be Anaheim's captive

Facing Facts
Facing facts was never where he excelled:
avoiding them, he flitted, like a blind bat
guided as by sonar past obstacles
crowding the dark cave of his existence.
Still, some sight sifted through his shuttered eyes.
Onlookers might have guessed
