Long No rest for the wicked Poems

"What sort of world
be home to those
who goes about
judging all souls
of what they do
be right or wrong
and how'd they know
of this-and-that

lest they were told
from the same lot
who walked the walk

After banishing my foe off to hell
The Lord took pity on my soul

I Cried Today

I am thirteen today
You would think I would be happy
Yet it is hard to even crack a smile

nobody answers when you make collect calls

The one link to reality,
The beacon in the storm,
The eye of a hurricane,
The calming of chaos,
During the storm,
When the hurricane rages on,
The help comes along,

"Intermission: Flutterby Reveille"




Impromptu like a moth
pale words flutter out of his 
psychodelic mind

curious funny flutterby…
for a second then, I didn't move, 
deadpan, I said, 

"... try again with some panache, some style" 
incredulously, I smiled,

he's...

Delicate sounds,
   almost like whispers
        gently claw

Except life is what you make it;
a mixture of personal experience. 
I indulge in carnal pleasures 
to hit a climax of an euphoric ecstasy.
The kiss from whiskey-

True Solitude

Days disappear in never ending solitude
No rest for the wicked the night calls me

Tackling the afterlife
What a goolish party to crash.
What do they do up there?
On days where ghosts might dash

The Traffic jam must be intense
Costumes flying to and fro.
Do they head to earth to watch

Is there any escape 
from noise?
A crash, a rattle, a spoon in a cup
No rest for the wicked
Insistent buzzing piled up

Blaring horns
Lighted signs
Engines screaming in ears
So many angered red faces
Social media fears

To sit idle and...

Shots to my soul but they missed it

No rest for gangster goons and ghouls
fiends and fools
Chopping up lines and lighting up spoons

Understanding God's law

For the crimes I never commited?
There’s no one to ask, I’m afraid
Which doesn’t make me uplifted
And its nowhere to go, I’m unseen
Cause my passport is shining too bright
Unwelcomed, I see the screen
But...

Because they were not worthy of being...
