Long Parried Poems

Randomling 1:  Matthew Macfadyen

I believe I'm in love with Matthew Macfadyen
He inspires in me a terribly bad yen
But as poetry goes

Cause nothing rhymes with "Macfadyen”.

That soft-spoken Sovereign commands a big stick, 
runs the world into ruins, once our bailiwick.
If asked why, He grins grimly, pale lips slightly pursed:
"Vindication? Straightforward: It's Me and Me First" 

(To mesmerise people He needed...

Awash with a newfound strength I might hope in rendering

He woke me
For a reason
And I flung
Back the covers
That blinded me
I retrieved my sword
As he told me
Who has set foot
Upon his world
Without
Fear or favour
I set about
My task
No one will tread it down
Break it
Into pieces
Without my...

Today Is My Last Day
By Rick Rucker

As today is my last day,
There are some things I’d like to say,

When we met, I was Alone,
No one to talk to on the phone.

All that changed in the...

Holy Georgina
Mother of Regina
Pray for me in this sanctified arena
That I may escape your Hurricane Katrina

With your scintillating fingers around my oesophagus
How do I stop your wind and take a breather?

Maybe it was I that...

Rest in me is what myself has been exorcised

The invective one chooses
razor sharp words that harm
with their sound and bite.
Lashing with tongue until
ears and hearts bleed.
Never has the power of the tongue
been so effective in 
this invective onslaught.

The roots lie deep within the...

The bold knight Dave had drunk a few.
The booze was flowing free.
With sword and shield and flagon of beer.
He sought to challenge me.
Now,I told this knight, I warned him true.
I said he'd drunk too much,

On an early morning walk along the shore
I pondered thoughts about the ocean floor
What treasures are buried beneath its sands
Amid corals, anemones, orange sea fans
I wanted a key to unlock the seabed's door

Swamp Nightmare

Oh! me oh! my boo hoo!
Whatever shall we do
Now it’s going far too well
When it should be going to hell

The Economy is booming
No catastrophe yet looming
After choosing Donald Trump
Where recession? where the slump?

But we’re...

I was defeated in a battle 
fought in a place
Distant from where I was raised.
Defeat was certain 
yet hope had the piddling of existence.
Had raised my canons, draped in metal.
Yet the army was nowhere to...

POSITIVELY TRUMP

The Economy is booming
No catastrophe yet looming
After choosing Donald Trump
Where recession? where the slump?

But we’re nearing full employment
All who can, in max deployment 
Black and white yellow and brown
Income up and food stamps down

The deep, sharp ringing fills the field
as blades clash against that of their enemies.
Clear air was sliced by precision arrows
as they were drawn from the bow,
moving over the raging masses,
past the colored banners raised high,

What Rainbows Are:


A rainbow is hideous.
They obscure the view
of the dark void of men.

There is no joy;only agony upon pain.
Your impressions are thwarted 
by these colors.
You are lost on your own path.
Virtue and wisdom flaccid...

They are not the same person they married
When time was so kind and their hearts were too
In love to notice the flaws they carried.

Our lovers with heads in pillows buried;
Back-to-back like typical strangers do
Who never...

Sitting here exhausted. Exhausted and drained. 
Exhausted and drained and beat.
I battled and dueled with insomnia all night,
And now I can touch defeat.

I parried with anxiety. I danced with turmoil. 
My mind was up for...

KEEP BURNING DEEP WITHIN

My whole being saturated
With everything I do in kindred times
I cannot help but disguise
Like plastic when heated, sometimes
It melt down strayed
In one form and substance.

As everyday I move 
Go around mill and...

Do not count the times my truant tongue spoke 
As though counting spring lambs high on the hill!
Can a fire rage aflame with ash and oak 
And not yield it's embers to the dawn's chill?
