Long Moderately Poems

Too many times sadly
too seldom gladly
I must learn to trust
Earth's future more

Both Father Sun's timeless 
rounds of enlightenment

impels healing trauma's lessons,
surviving hale and...

Damian Stood in the morning sun.
The sun felt good on his face.
Delilah was still sleeping. He
Kissed her face and caressed

triggered courtesy dulcolax caplets plus

I (a beatle browed, foo fighting,...

Ah... nothing more enjoyable
than acidic gastric fluid (bile)
flowing backward into esophagus,
resulting in heartburn, meanwhile

Automobile prohibitive maintenance costs
pitches me pitifully begging for alms
lamenting dog forsaken
melon collie unpleasant circumstances
pleading with outstretched palms

Teach 'Your' child to be at times "ADAMANT",
Yet don't forget to instil in 'Him' the inclination towards "BENEVOLENCE",
Don't let 'His' values just always be "COMPLIANT",
Introduce 'Him' to refusals and the bold "DEFIANCE".

Bring to 'Him' the...

of little boys. 
I killed the earth last night,
by bringing my .38 caliber to school.
Bang. Bang.
I killed the...

Aw shucks, I did sustain
