Though still within our infancy, 
we strive to thrive, but woefully 
we flash and flaunt our 'primacy',
display our trophies pridefully.
 
Our terra firma ecstasy
destroys survival's harmony,
lays waste to life on land and sea.
Mankind, thy name...

1947-The Peeing of the Peaked Peasantry - a Mocktail

A petite piece of...

Elitists Part 3
All these racists with their lies,
filling the airwaves with propaganda and strife,
Stalins with soundbytes, Magellan their drivebys
 the pasts dead end street -topically jacknifed 
like it was the only course for a heading, point A...

A Glorious Universe
What natural
Is, tell!
The hawk in tabloid swoop did boast –
Whose sweetened-toil doth but
Stink, becometh it
A merry-menu nutriment.

The floods and the woods
Of their own stead in silent-words
– As a sentry –
Sendeth but a sober plea of...

Don'T Go Beyond the Ocean, Part Iv
...“For two years we tried, but ambushes came,
they hit and run, would not stand up and fight,
the meadows were deadly, the forests were hell,
wherever we went, we were in their sights.

“Imagine one hundred million peasants

To Tan a Ripper Hyde
As the receding 
nestles of dying
love 
in full bloom,
now 
sadly blown away.

The seasons of 
the massacreing 
tides of Autumn,
the soothing winds
of change,
now gently at bay.

As love's decree
of passion 
resides at chamber,
felt within the door.

To conjure...

Like a stalking hoarse,

Have endured shrewd days and night,

Like the physician ampoule,

Ready on my skin to pour.

Strawberry marks,

Eyes glued on the object
 
compelled to the hard brown wooden logs ...

 More than anything Nature fascinates me
Men living in close proximity to nature, I love to see
So I ramble into the city’s far outskirts
Watching ordinary people in commonplace pursuits
Imbibing much from the life of the...

And it was some lavish entertainment!

Four Minute Warning
Four minute warning they said
At the height of the Cold War
Just exactly four minutes
Not a split second more.
Four minutes warning of
Nuclear missiles on track.
Enough time apparently
For us to fire back.
Having got the message 
What would...

Premium Member Droppings From the Table, Part 1
The image burns within
my brain of an 
old medieval hall,
remembered from childhood
picture books.

The food is heaped
upon the board,
the shields are on the wall.
The lords and ladies
round the groaning table
flirt and watch the fools, 
the one...

it all seemed rather molesting.

The Lost Boy
A joyous mountain. 
Exiled peasants. 
A spawning spring. 
To pleasure they seek 
At its peak. 
They are meek 
Yet kind and sheik 
With rags to wear, 
Frizzled hair. 
A castle was once their lair. 
With...

Beauty Curse
Itoro, most gorgeous of all
Blonde long hair, dropped through spinal

Ruby tender lips, her word is final.

Her aura makes the devious act honest
 Elegance conceals...

Frowned upside down, prithee now
Come diagonally to get here clown
Romp in delight as you were never found
Wanting, were you?

Wanton greedy bastard, turn back now
Carry on then in your mortal sin,...
