Ignominious Cult Leader Best Kept Locked Up

Our unhinged president,
(a veritable loathsome miscreant)
cannot get away with murder,
nor will mine paltry poetic
(side winding) gambit
help clinch deserved punishment
for leader of free world hell bent
on destroying civilization.

Nevertheless cathartic and therapeutic
to craft (ala literary blitzkrieg)
sentiments lambasting...

The Deepest Dark

The deepest dark

Like an unaware monster it sits within
It hungers for you and all
Unsure of its’ meaning
Yet it already feels diminishing

If you let it crawl around inside
You will will only find its’ call
Metastasizing inside your...

He's a seasoned outdoorsman; a lover
               and explorer of nature who frequently
   goes camping, on occasion, hunting; even fly-fishing.

CANCER STOLE MY DAD


Sitting by the window and reflecting, on one bitter cold day,
The sky cloudy, the weather report predicted snow, 
The temperature outside 10 degrees, a little low,
33 years ago, it was a sad, life changing day...

The Black Widow's Metastasizing Guise: Casey Anthony Saga

You spun your spindly web of lies
In the silken strands waxed family ties
You coddled your young then muffled her cries
You buried her carcass 'neath the availing skies
Beneath your black veil lay a predatory disguise
With your...

Ants and Roaches

Ants and Roaches

How often the question
How often the ignoring
How often the reality
That as a species
We live lives
According to someone else’s purpose

Perhaps

Too many move through life 
Embracing factotum
Embracing servile doctrine
Pushing religion
Obsessing scholastic attainment
Conquering career lures

While forgetting

Fulfillment...

There is Nothing to Say About It

There are no words at all to describe 
the mass slaughter of innocents,

Goodbye Rose

Cancer is an ugly disease…not only for the life it takes
But for all the sorrow and sadness…left floating in its wake….

Although I did not know her personally I’ve kept abreast of cases she has tried

Lurking in shadows of cravings
Knowing well its metastasizing power

Earth Eulogy

Earth Eulogy

By Mark D. Stucky
She was a good planet,
put to death in her prime
by a pandemic of people.
Homo-sapiens was a disease
with mutating and metastasizing
technological and industrial pus,
emitting environmental toxins,
exterminating flora and fauna,
until the infection’s surge
triggered...

Styx

In Hades, flows the chthonic Styx, a river

Autumn's Mantra

A frothy mist shrouds the ground
A cool breeze drifts all around
A frosty chill doth surround
Solar rays no longer resound.

A plethora of colored foliage aboveground
A web of tangled, rotting roots underground
Chelones, Mums, and Golden Rod abound
In...

Shadows In the Dark Night

Darkness blights chilling 
streams ignite
stark shadows silhouetted 
against my window
shading the night; distilling the 
availing light
shrouding my inner sanctum; 
sheltering my fright
creeping and crawling with an 
eery spite
ghastly outlines swaying and 
swerving
wavering, quivering each fold...

Angels Danced

Angels danced and played the harp, singing "Oh, Happy Day" when Lucifer was cast out of heaven. A cancer metastasizing there; a rotten apple threatening to spoil the rest. Unwelcome and deceitful; a toxic threat...

Life's Sated Pleasures

A frolic in the park
A moonlit dinner after dark
A prediction on the mark
A quick trip on a lark

Spring, bird's new anthem bleating
Summer's eve sunset sparking
Autumn's metastasizing leaves glistening
Winter's first, new snowfall accumulating

Firstborn's, new cry beckoning

Cancer On the Prowl

the verdict rings loud
our innocence snuffed
leaving us breathless
on the edge of our seat
in silence ravaging your body
hypocrite it gnaws inside
where evil lurks ~ the enemy
its claws into you into us
metastasizing cancerous tentacles
threatening viciously
our harmony
