Long Miscellany Poems

Goodness, I nearly lost my balance on the spiral seashells and broken sea stone chipping matrix.
My quaint obsession with marine life and that skyline paradox blossoming so tantalisingly,  might be a source of some...

Although I had always adored flowers, I had never had a green thumb;
And while I tried awfully hard, my efforts always had sorry outcomes.

Like the sorrow of old garden roses, during the unanticipated drought,
Or storms...

What is the difference between a digger, a forklift truck, a spoon, and a toaster? None. Bread slices can be carried by forklifts and bread can be dug by a digger particularly if ground. The...

FRACAS MISCELLANY

(Let's Slam):

This futuristic society is all about the status quo.
The soul of humanity is therefore exposed to terrorists’ attacks and war.
Where I am from cries out to unknown God to no be the prophesy...

Brother Gaus


Gaus is a Rainbow man
Only that he’s not curved.
He’s just a miscellany
That makes him striking.
Gaus has a funny knack
Of repairing any gadget
Can do so with anything
Except repairing himself.
He can service the lot
Except his own...

On lazy uneventful afternoons
     I sometimes venture into the quiet haven
        that is my occupied mind as if a voice

When the ability to write manifested itself among the many learned minds, accounting, and recordkeeping too, had manifested as what has become known to be called, history.

The routine breakdown, and the frequency in some reflective...

The springtime came without a warning sign;
at my wintertime home where I chose to resign.
The rain fell without regulation.
The thunder instilled in me glorious trepidation.

But in time the rain wasn’t the same.
In nostalgia I remembered...

Musky fragrance inundates
my nostrils as I enter 
the garden center:
a rhapsodic feeling
in idyllic surroundings.
The air is humid
like an Amazon garden,
heat barely tolerable
making my glasses misty.
Soft music, dulcet and sweet,
swamp the amazing conservatory. The caterpillar had...

Truths, as though fairy tales, I have heard so miscellany,
That her flora and fauna reveal true theophany;
Rolling and spinning lowlands with hill-like granite blessings,
Moss misty magnificently mysterious dressings;
Romantic and luring - they say - her...

INSIGHTS
recalled
 words
  hollowing
out a memory
 in a   trompe l’œil
of
a
disparate
 miscellany
held
aloft&
framed
in view

a living
collage
ongoing
carefree
 &
literally
 done,

looking out
from
a study in
irreverence
 re-imagined
&
half-present
self-involved
serious
purposed

in

a
visual game
so smooth

a
grand thesis
of
intrigue
  or statement
of
 continuous
imagination

They come from darkness,
Eager to the lighted place.
Cold hands clasp warm -
Hi! in a welcoming embrace.
Proffered camaraderie cuddles
Kindred spirits in a cloud;
Buzzing breezy banter oozes
From a jesting jocund crowd.

Rum raucus pleasantries tipple
In tailored pin-striped suits;
Convivial...

Aphorism hinders ancillary terrible dilemmas,
In the bearing session, I have been picked.
If I've carried out the most striking edemas,
Approaching all them might be kicked.

Living has scored the highest goal of my life.
Drilling entails helping others...

here, nestled among jungled trees
vines, leaves, ferns
antiquated ceramics and miscellany pottery
the monstrously massive
the grotesquely hilarious
the intriguingly quirky
the familiar and the surprising

dusty congregation in somnolence
indigo, cornflower yellow, bone white
a delight, a mystery
a forgotten anomaly
a skip and...

Vain vitriol vile veers vile voice,
Abrupt the stock of pain and shock;
In awkward style the fatal choice,
Now watch the clock as fear breaks locks.
Missiles of hate move crazy hordes,
In a short time sense morbid surge;

luscious orchid of purple sitting in a faux crystal vase
flavorsome apples of red
nectarous juices of orange tangerines
palatable watermelons with pink centers

marvelous corn pancakes
wondrous scrambled cheese eggs
spectacular meats of ham, bacon and sausage
