His Hair Was Dyed Red
the world watches Holmes
sit “dazed” in the courtroom,
with each mainstream media
monolith
churning out the sound bites
referencing his eyes & his
red hair---
the picture that goes viral is
of course the one that can
be likened most to something

Life Imitates Art a Humble Tribute To Oscar Wilde
O thou proud Nature
Rolling in ashes of long-burnt
Fiery love of yourself
What are you boasting of?

Thy greenery? 
That’s nothing but
Wooden rotten figures 
With wrinkled claws
Scratching the Earth’s breast
Fumbling for manure
Water-thirsty vampires
Destined to be strangled
By the icy...

Gboko Gives Chase
In Gboko, where the dust motes dance and play,
A town, a city, a people, some would say.
What defines its spirit, a riddle, a quest,
With a gait too familiar, putting all to the test.

"Gboko!" he calls,...

(America’s Mutant Megalomaniacs)

All Scientists know that our planet is warming,
No question remains too whose ox will get gored!
A contributing fact is earth's CO2's rising,
That surface of Venus melts lead not ignored.

The Venus disaster pre-destined to...

Ultimate Computation
Seek while you may find, strength of cerebral cortex. 
'Though shrouded in complexities, higher minds advance to next. 
Con folks par exellence, exorcising painful memories. 
Enabling state of elightenment, a projection of ideas. 

Dragging weaklings...

Porch Swing
the cold came in
like a sideways glance 
from a once spectacular friend
it froze my movements
just as the labrea memorialized
the bones of other
trying beasts
with thick,
viscuid
material

to shed such matter
in such a manner
is difficult at best

Ballad of the Bomb

Megalomaniacs, from any era,
all have the killer extinct gene
A beastly desire to bring everything
to the brink of nothing
Oh, how some would love to channel 
their inner Nero
To make civilization come crashing down
in a smouldering pile...

Panicking the Pandemic
Deciphered deceptions that the summer brings,
As the cathedrals crumble for the corona Kings…
Units ubiquitous unleashed with sweeping strings,
Infectious isolation internal as the contagious clings…

The wounded wander amongst the Hellion hordes,
Where the good battle evil with...

Crazy Governments
Crazy governments

And their leaders too

Missiles on me and you

Psychopathic, maniacs

Disturbed megalomaniacs

Bringing down death

With falsehood and lies

Manifesting fear from the skies

And what are we doing

Why don't we protest

We should create civil unrest

From the...

Belsan
This was written for the Belsan Tragedy....

Mother Earth has completed
the cycle of the sun
Searing agony; blackened dreams
Freewill has been undone

Vivid memories tainted by blood
Megalomaniacs on the prowl,
charging through doorways
Altering course of lives

Masters of predation
Masters of...

Self Destruction
It was a world of two ideologies
Both wanting to hold sway
Neither of which were prepared
To give anything away 
Now it’s a world of two Empires
Neither of which are ready to stop
But the strange thing is...

Premium Member The Book of Dust
We are but fleeting shadows
 On the  impersonal sea of time
Footprints washed away in its sands
Such traces that we do leave
Are found in fading memories
And crumbling artefacts.
There are those who aspire
To be written into...
