An Average Schlepper
This fool doth not consider himself wise,
writing paltry poetry difficult
to read and/or actualize

The Jewel Of Jesus
A polytheist would argue
just one God
That there are endless guards
and many rods
given these wards
With many temperaments and aims
devotion for a supreme being
Compassionate gods spread
charity, clarity’s
light and goodwill
Whereas others spread hate,
blood still spills
Relates—mayhem and...

True (terrific) title: Trump's truckling tutored troopers...;
wily word wizard worried,

Triumphantly tenaciously (try to) trample treacly
traffickers target timid testifiers traducing,
their traitorous tractable toxic troglodyte:
today transition toward
totalitarianism tidily trends.

Remember Strange Fruit
The clouds, the first at dawn, ripened, pregnant,
With sunrise, and wet, dissolved, gathered,
Evolved and became, blankets, tarred black;
Feathery rain, hammered, dropped and spat,
Cast out, of the womb, of heaven; the trident,
Electricity, crackled, white, forked the...

The Aghori
Fiery Aghori

invoking seance,

in darkness of night,
require we shed fright.
Spirits aid his cause,
seeking no applause,
for there’s no one here,
save bliss beats...

Towers, new or old,
Stay grounded, slim or fat,
Draped bright or in mold,
Wearing hats, fancy or plain flat,
For some masquerade never to end.
Towers, tall or short,
Gaze below, gleefully or brooding,
Around their feet, mobility like in field...

Lost Chicago
How incandescent she, glance for what he's trembling for.
The dillusional inside sparks brightest like never,
seedlings of hopes arouses fancy over.

Stupidity
Very well, my dear, she said through coloured glass,
Through teeth of blood and silver

Until he bared his thuggish fangs
