Long Namby pamby Poems

back if they passed 
to their eventual

lights shunned and pass 
like flying clouds. When...

OSAMA
Obdurate Sadistic abductor as Machiavellian now abashed
Senseless Saboteur with Sabre sword,
Ablutions of wickedness as apology from vagrant
Mercy and peace mixed fleetingly against unprovoked America and the innocents
Abomination of true God explained as religion, hatred, wickedness,...

Face wrinkled.
A little shout comes a frown.
I am weak and fickled,
Life is hard,
I am sad.
Life is for the ironclad,
But am a frail lad.
Controlled by emotions,
And also swayed by affection.

All hands on deck,
Does not...

METAMORPHASIS

Mother, in her wisdom, called me ‘Bambi’
And people, when they see me, just say, “Aaah”,

Afraid of all the creatures...

Or so she thought…..

With some fat free ranch
Think I’d like to see him
Swinging from a branch 
Reaching out towards me
