Long One over the eight Poems

Negligent grooming habits unbridled

Apathy toward mine personal hygiene
i.e. relinquishing attention
linkedin with bare toiletries,
cuz I rarely spruced myself up
nor never maple leave
to cease being hard nut to crack
and rendered adopted
couture modus operandi
of yours truly shabby chic

one or more eight Reindeer forsake

et cetera doe fill full heartbreak,

which Santa Claus immediately claimed
to be “FAKE” and accused (Jake)
i.e. Jacob Marley concocted game over,

Remembering Elm Street

Take my hand – follow the plan,
Let’s go for a walk down wide Spruce Street;
Friends to play with and neighbors to greet 
But now that we see all that we can
Let’s turn the...

If Keats could have seen through Hubble’s eyes
when the sonnet ‘Bright Star’ he wrote,
meaning its telescope-imaged skies
with those stellar tableaux afloat,

 ‘steadfast’ all night in ‘splendor lone’,
that poet...

What should I write about today,
So many important things to say.
Like what is on tv this morning
More bad news, I saw that coming

Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq,
Our boys are fighting, we want them back.

When pilgrims first arrived upon Plymouth’s shores,
They were wary of Indian customs and things they didn’t know-
Suspect of the Indians having powers from the devil, and more,
The belief of witches inside their own colonies did...

The Pelican 
such a comical clown
A stranger bird 
I’ve yet to have found
The longest beak
The  largest mouth
Though not too many
Here to be found
St James’ Park London
Where a trio can be seen
A gift from Russia...

Slayer of Mahishasura, the buffalo demon,
Durga resembles Greek mythical spirit Eudaemon;
Symbol of motherhood, strength, safety, destruction and wars, 
Amalgamation of goddesses and their divine source...!

When I was just seven, so small
My best friend Jacob, outdid us all
He had a pet Cobra, cool as could be
He forgot to feed it for a whole week you see

So I killed him

Decisions good, decisions bad
Either way it's happy or sad
Losing a job, or losing a friend
It's hidden but stays until the end.

Life's challenges are not really fair
Leaving our hearts in pieces, our minds in the air
Many...

There once was a robin who flew
somewhat strangely down my chimney flue.
When I asked if she missed
due to morn's heavy mist,
she said, "That, plus I'm fighting the flu".

Unhappy with how much I weigh,

Happy.  Genial.  Merry.  Jolly
Blottoed, blasted, etched and blitzed
Mellow, foggy, hazy, squiffy
Tipsy.  Tiddly.  Brahms and Liszt

Dazed, zombied, tanked-up, trollied
Ganted, gubbed, guttered
Bladdered, blathered, leathered, plastered, 
Sozzled, sloshed, scuttered

Hammered, battered, caned, mangled
Spannered, mullered....

Death is unavoidable,
We all know it’s coming.
But...it still hurts when you know,
One you love isn’t coming back.

The harvest always comes,
And whisks away those it chooses.
Without mercy it kills,
And crimson blood covers the ground.

But did it...

Written: by Miracle Man
5-8-2019

Morning quiet time whisks me to another time,
Two years past, at the worst six months of my existence.
On November 15th 2017 came Severe Spinal Stenosis surgery,
On December 27th 2017 I survived...

If I had a penny for every thought of you,
I'd be the richest person in the world.

And the skies would be bright and shiny.

A deluded and deranged miscreant.
Rode in a rented Ryder truck,
Sadistically opposed to his government,
He delivered a two-ton bomb.

After parking the fateful vehicle,
With time fleeting and fuses lit,
He fled to his car,
Parked, not far away.

Hearing the...

Now, Fay Wray will end our affair!
