The Good Ship Venus Updated

The Captain had a penny whistle 
Which he wore around his neck
And he played it every morning
As the crew danced on the deck.
Sometimes it was a Hornpipe
Sometimes a Palais Glide
As the crew danced fore and aft
And from Port to Starboard side.

Prompt every morning
When the Bosun rang a bell,
And if he was feeling frisky
The Captain danced as well.
Sometimes on sunny mornings
The crew would stand at ease
While the Captain and a subby
Mimed a decorous strip tease.

Rain storm hail or shine
Until twenty minutes passed
When on a given signal
The crew would climb the mast
To set the sails and rigging
And get the ship  under way
And so it continued 
Every single day.

Two or three times a year
All the ships would meet
And the Captain and his crea
Would dance for the fleet.
It was on the good ship Venus
Which had been a ship of shame
Until the Dancing Captain'
Gave it a better name.

He became the only Admiral to wear
 A penny whistle around his neck
And even in his dotage
 Would dance around the deck.
Ship shape and Bristol fashion 
When she was away at sea.
Oh on the good ship Venus
Such a happy place to be

Time Changed Words

Time Changed Words

Olden days
Days so golden
Golden then
Then not at all
All wish them so
So wished away
Away in time
Time was quite lost
Lost daydream style
Style your hair
Hair style is new
New slim fit blouse
Blouse blue is mind
Mind your step
Step two at a time
Time won't stop
Stop standing still
Still I did fear
Fear strange new days
Days after days
Days traveled past
Past my dates
Dates time words
Words not distilled
Distilled new words
Words now renewed
Renewed words mimed
Mimed well this time
Time blink blinks
Blinks twice then waits
Waits a few minutes
Minutes pass fast
Fast paced life
Life still goes on
On and on
On a roll
Roll out change
Change changes words
Words you did say
Say stay in line
Line up your mouth
Mouth just good things
Things might change
Change the past
Past changes sight
Sight softens views
Views not the same
Same things so true
True words spoken
Spoken gently
Gently does it
It can work
Work it out
Out damned spot
Spot the difference
Difference is just that
That love is kind
Kind loves kind words
Words changed by time
Time in the present
Present time changes words
Words should be golden
Golden not Olden Days.

Induced Interludes

Twilight disrobes a soundless star
It claims some gentler theme from me
Caught lingering in a unified bestilled embrace
Beneath a unique spotlight of its gleaming afterglow
                        gently now, gently
                        thus footprints bare none
                        alight butterfly rest on a finger
                        spilled words occasions the breeze                       
                        the gist of me shadows alongside jaguars
Morning star glint after dawns flow
Challenge arranges yet another measure
An opportune solemn hymn ingratiates breaths
Stages of a day follow blissfully edge to edge quietly
                        gently now, gently
                        a better course grace me
                        fingertip traces a fashioned grin
                        a made verse set rhythmically whispers                       
                        a softly caressed infant coos towards silence
Sunsets a mimed score entertains
Review disciplined superbly portrayed
Persuades descending rays an eyeful adieu
Nightwings greet dusk, whorls up into absence
                        gently now, gently
                        ebb star pivots another
                        penitent pose cradles prayers
                        pointed at fingers in lieu of sheeps                       
                        eyes seals behind dreams, genteel cast...

Premium Member My dear ones, years and accounts have passed since we spoke about the New Man, Le Horla

My dear ones, years and accounts have passed since we spoke about the New Man, "Le Horla."
From the midpoint of the Reset cycle, it is known to emerge from the mix of slaves and technology.
Rudolf Steiner knew, the beginning of vaccination, non-foods prepared in the shadows of the times.
The control of the masses through technocracy, a vision of the 1900s when the world was slowly transforming.
Under the influence of drugs, Hitler saw prophetic nightmares, screaming in fear before "Le Horla,"
A fearless and cruel monster, a presence deeply haunting the collective social subconscious.
Poe, in 1840, sensed that autistic presence in crowds frightened by the mysterious inexplicable,
And Bulwer-Lytton, through "The Coming Race," showed us the way to a future full of uncertainties.
I merely connected the threads, for geniuses often reveal the hidden truth in the folds of time.
We lament the lack of empathy, the mimed emotional life in public space, a theater of our days.
"Le Horla" spreads, USR, a symbol of technocratic times, an experiment of the present.
A nano-metallic transhumanist nervous system, beyond which only Zombies can survive.
Zombies, USR members integrated into the 5G network, coordinated by towers watching from the shadows,
Soldiers of an unchosen destiny, in a world led by the deepest and darkest shadows.
Remember the '50s, when the danger wasn't in vaccines but in the hunger and fear that reigned,
Today, technological terror and transhumanists bring us times of darkness and fragments of hope.
The worst satanists lead, and strategic starvation is just the beginning of a story.
Under the command of 5G, group intelligence manifests like drones drawing messages in the sky.
A trans 5G USR member becomes an appendage of the Beast, an eye on the ground for its unrest.
And yet, in this nightmare world, there is still a chance, a thread of light in the dense darkness.

Premium Member You And Me

Photo of you I posted in my heart
Drives, dribbles me in the court that count
Logos I stick on my shirt
Faces of you that mount

Memories of you I treasure
Frequencies I feel and hold
Selfies you share with me so cool
Breaths of me that fold

Our pictures in me, I keep
Smiles we keep and lift
Night or day we dip
Our lips too far that drift

One day, you left and I pout 
Days passed, I waited for you
You who forgot to send a note
And blaming me, not you

Upon your return you snobbed me
Acting like a kid and mimed at me
Photos of you and me I showed
Posted on a high wall...
  in the mall where you met me!

Mysterious Mumbo micron meanders most monochrome mornings
Merry Mickey monster makes mentionable mackerel marmalade
Michigans maleficent mayor maimed Mrs.Maryjane May Marlow
Mumbling meager monarch mumbles making Muncie memorable
Minute minions marched missing marshmallow marsh
Montana mistresses mixed millions, mincing megaphones
Marvelous misguided monkeys mimed minutemen,
Milly mistakenly met misogynist men making mincemeat
Marty’s munchable muffins mysteriously melted
Mystical memories mischievously met Merry Mickey
Missouri's mania maybe mystifying many Minnesotans
Moppish meanies mislaid miniscule Mississippi maps

Premium Member I See You In Your Innocence

I see you in your innocence.
In the rain you sat and banged your drums and mimed your song.
Your smile was pure enjoyment. Of loving life that had really just begun.
You caught me as your head turned though in your innocence you remained alone.

I see you in your innocence. You can’t wait to live your dream. The world is there for you to take it. With eyes so full of wonder. Your smile is without life’s plunder. No scars of broken dreams. 

I see you in your innocence. I remember when I knew innocence of my own. I see you in your innocence. I’ll never forget seeing that moment of freedom, of pure joy when you banged your drums and sang your song. I hope that life lets you win. I hope your innocence lives in your song.

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 monotony
Mediocrely misconstruing
Mischievous mongrels
And misconceiving misplayed    
Merciless minutiae
But merry merciful 
Momentous messengers of love

Marketable motive and 
Mission to mirthfully mate
You mavericks matched
To mettlesome mistresses
Masqueraded maroon 
From menacing mercenaries
Marvelously masterful 
Is your mimed courtship dance
Mellifluous entwining 
Matrimonial love embraces
Mounting and moving 
Mimicking moody miscreance
Swaying to measureless 
Maudlin melancholic melodies
Monopolizing methodical 
Momentum and motion
A meticulously modulated 
Mellow match of merging
A most memorable metaphysical
Millennium melodrama

She.Alba

Beautiful Siren from a distant sea
Doctor Donovan wrote of their Mastery 
Aquatic, seduction enchants me…

Merman disguised the Light in his eyes
Sang the songs that a heart finds nice
Extending a hand he unraveled his web
And my sister was there after her death
“Wana ride?” was the question he mimed
And I, tempted by his suggestive rhyme
Never hesitated, to enter his mind.

Past the coffee stained collar, I climbed.
Tracing races and faces in the wind
One thousand and One nights I’d spend
Immortal and naked on the ocean

Towers of power in the robes of men
Lighting the coast to see sailors home
Nixie was the name my mother mentioned
And Trixie was the dame 
...who bore little attention

The Merrow of the story, is in me.

.... The Scotch is vertical, and I’m a She.Alba….

Merlin, can you see the sight in my eYes?
