Long Nauseate Poems

Time To Shower...When Pervasive Odor Of Ureic Acid

Doth strongly waft, sting,
and nauseate about me

bombarding cilia of
nasal passageway analogous

crashing, deafening, exploding,
ear splitting xylophone,
also synonymous isolated like
barenaked lady within
remote location of...

Purgative debacle debilitated me December 18th, 2020

Hoop fully adequately explains
source of odoriferous dry rot,
ye possibly smell, I jot
within this reasonable rhyme
without putting Johnny on the spot
my absence NOT attending fellowship,
today December 20th, 2020
albeit remotely, cuz...

"Once upon a midnight Poe"

Underneath the midnight mask, I remove the makeup at last,
The moon is an anvil to my mood, mooring along the vacant vast

where pain and mourn summoned me
a blood call of an impromptu visit

before being accumulated

Drifting alive, waves of human tide,
money and power slaves nine to five 
project deadlines nauseate in stress 
endless chase, mortgages magnified.

Vacillating minds, weary woes abide
big cars whiff smoke on sullen faces.

“Your body is yours; 
it is not for someone to abuse and leave you in fear.” 
Quote by poet

Frenetic worry filled with fearfulness.

Terrifying mute screams echo impart,
Tears unbidden, wraith being...

Political Promosquity Horn Haiku

Things that nauseate
Are Trump thinking he is great
How ill is his fate.

At own game must be...
