Long Omit Poems

Bright lights, big city...
bright lights, big city dreams...
please just take me away tonight
Let me rest on your elegance tonight
I have no energy left to spend in reality
so please knock me unconscious
just to be in the...

'Twas a sound I thought alarming, most assuredly disarming;
Up I rose from peaceful slumber to discern what it might be.
While my candle flickered, wavered; whilst my heartbeat halted, quavered,
At my window I was favoured by...

Have you ever played with it?
Even if just a bit.
Or thrown it.
Because you were in a snit.
Did you ever eat it?
Then throw out the pit.
Or caught it.
In your mitt.

Would you yell at it?
In a momentary...

Saga     (1)
Seeing the lives of saga saints
I wanted to pass life reclusively

From shoulders to leg
One water holder for quenching...

Especially when we omit the little cedilla
Please, my country is an island, a peninsula
A very pretty country swimming in...

Born of wombs
for premeditated health
and restoring nutritional wealth,

We might warmly anticipate
a more win/win democratic living Earth communion,
more like an organic gardening womb
than a lose/lose political capital-overinfested swamp,
filling in with unhealthy communities,
filling in with dysfunctional nuclear-ballistic...

It doomed my thoughts, defeated

Masses forming classes boarding:
Corral Gates of slaughter, hauling, sorting- human beings-aborting

just drink from the cup
as the river of oblivion flows
some try to stand in stagnant waters
others cocooned by the edges
seeking a cure from the inevitable

She is a popular decadent aura.  
Accusatory and crafty beginning with the Torah.
Debauched by nature
 consumer of the spiritually immature. 
Guided by licentious ways 
she tries to plant her foot on the narrow path...

What have we learned?

What is our big 20/20 revision takeaway
from this win/lose
zero-sum failure?

To transparently cooperate
for our most inclusive win/win health
and long-term safety,
economic
and political
and social
and physical
and mental health
resilience

From my own observation,

Just a definition of a word in many views.
In a day before the Great Summer came,
You counted pages and noted names.

Rancid lemon rope squeeze
around a rotten tomato neck tie,
crooked odor bow hanging out of place 
Acid reflux raisin tax bleed;
dripping spoiled, milquetoast lies
out a sour-twisted, prune puckered face

Tart tongue 
sulfur speak disorderly,
dirty saliva fingers in...

Take it away
Right now—see here…look here
Run into the light where one shadow casts an intent, lowly eye
Into the very heart of the storm, the words fall with might

But for your manifestation in dried pulp 
Minds neglect your invasion 
The crave for you unquenchable .

Underdogs gazing loathsomly at your managers
Soo powerful you send jolts down the spine...

Stop the plundering, stop the looting,...
