Long Overridden Poems

His glowing golden eyes glistened with a comprehension beyond the mortal condition

A well-toned, tall, and tanned man, who most, not all, would call handsome

A brightly bleached stalactite overbite gleaned between the mean features of an...

Not a stir of air, not a movement of grass or bush,
This night is as still as the death that stalks the unsuspecting.
That creeper of the shadows, the face that only takes on features ...

Never Too Late To Say "I Love You" Until...

Futile lamentations reverberate along
corridors of times long gone, this papa
tearfully apologetic revisiting his base,
fitfully lachrymose torturing unrelenting
voluminous wrongs against thee dearest
precious daughter aware poetic/ prosaic

ministrations cannot substitute...

When I get drunk I smoke THC like a chain smoker
Never been able to stay sober
A new day and hangover
Stand in the way and it's game over
It's time I take over
These fools can't even play...

Love should only ever kindle the present and the future. Not the past…

Primarily, I am second.

For I have placed others on similar platforms
Made of charred cedar and revamped memories

Unintentionally

It is not intent that we embrace,...

Living in the Now Generation and I'm eating the snails dust
In this world I've been cast in it's be Number One or bust
I'm watching the pitcher pitch and the batter bat
But who nowadays truly cares...

Oh on onlookers oversized overridden octagonal oceanographic organised octaves

A shrouded sinister sparkle said hello to a dish cloth today. But the array of plates, pans and cutlery shouted in protest for they required much manual...

Sail from afar of my journey made.
What could be the sound my ear do hear?
This seems to be that of a glorious celebration,
Which needs no ear to be put on the wall.


Ogiri leti.

Ode to Fanny 

Her start in life was rather poor
with wastrel parents, ones to abhor
She avoided living in the gutter
Earning enough for her bread and butter

Her break in life came rather later 
Before, bigamy and...

I was right in the middle of commenting to peers at Poetry Soup when the power went off and I found myself in utter darkness and feeling disappointed since it was still only 10:45, a...

I awoke to the sound 
Of the rooster crow
Red handed with green thumbs
Covered in dirt and soap in my eyes
I walk down the hall
Of this house that is now mine
Wander into the kitchen
Turn on the...

The Cry of The Virgin

I am weak, I am naive and innocent,
Yet you marshal your deceitful might,
And mount yourself upon me,
To rob me of my innocence.

My cry for help calls for your humane attention,
But my...

Ephemeral enchantments like ribbons  
adorning a softly sparkling smile, 
beautiful bow ‘Happily ever after’ written; 

Perfect fleeting and often hidden 
dressed up whispers begin to beguile,
ephemeral enchantments like ribbons; 

Every ounce of you begins...

Subjugated by a Muse,

Who holds me in her grip.

Before too long, I'll blow a fuse,

Whilst biting off a lip.


I sell my soul but once a day,

By night I thus retract.

To the Dweller service pay,

Providing what...

Pixies riding butterflies
corral a bunny rabbit.
And over the centuries,
they have gotten good at it.

Fairies weave a straw basket
that they fill with colored eggs.
Yet, they can't get the bunny
to stand on its two hind legs.

That will...

Pen I lay thee down
you're in a cluttered pile
beside my crystal crown
you're ink I won't defile

I promise to restore your pride
with valor strength and flair
I'll put my paper by your side
you'll be warm in there

Though...

Nothing quells the fury where anger dwells;
her skin pales, and incantations begin.
She sells secret potions and magic spells;
and in her heart, she'll not forgive his sin.

At night, amidst ghostly shadows of light,
she calls forth demons...

The Unforetold Truth
The Truce unclaimed is yearning
The Halo surrounded is hatful
The treasure unfound is slothful
The ink unused is fading
The forces unchallenged are daring
The stakes untaken are dilapidating
The cross unbeard is rightful
The characteristics unfeatured are deriding
The...

A Blizzard can drive even flurries graciousness hard intensifying journeys kingdoms laboring missions neighborhoods overridden pure quests reveal storms terrorizing unknowing victims with xenobiotic yielding zoothapsis.



Snow can be so beautiful and serene.
Though wet and bitterly...

A bell-jar, crystalline, as transparent as an aquarium
Vibrant colors burnt umbers tints glass atop the kitchen table.
No elaborate gardening, just gentle misting in the terrarium
Muted pinks, earthy tones, texture soft as Siberian sable
My supercilious ways...
