Factoidman and Shallowman - Part 1

[Well, ShallowMan’s ne’er at a loss
for voicing shallow thoughts that gloss.
With trenchant wit he reaps the dross
when seeking sense in applesauce.

But to his aid flies FactoidMan
who always has a Fact at hand;
with him, who needs...

And Still I Drive - Part One

Stars fall under failing skies...stars fall...stars fall...
And sadly...i start to drive.
Through the unremarkable village with its tall 
Georgian Bay window panes, lightless,
devoid of visages; outwardly staring back at my 
Abject countenance with detached contempt and...

The Village On the Water VII

Raised Stone-Tablet eternally abiding under 
  Towering Heavens endless span; and in its 
   Solititude...charts the migrations of our 
 Highest Lord's cestial rockets.
  
Because of Stone-Tablet, bestowed unto us, we...

things i need to learn - a humble list

Dear God,

It is a common belief that learning, true learning does not take place

Without mistakes made along the way

I’ve made my fair share, 

And there’s a lot of realisations I’ve come to today

I need to...

Boo Hoo Politics

(Boo Hoo Politics was Written following the Brexit and Trump
votes as an observation and not a political declaration.
A few years out of date now but perhaps still fresh
Enough to share)

The Trials of Meretrix Canto Ii

So! Now then begins thy fearful
Straits
As scourged by cruel, licentious 
Birch
Thou whilst surely delate:-
All that now is...
And all that has gone before,
All you once were...
And are now no more!
For liken to the widening socket

Dream Bug

"Dream Bug"



Hour glass 
rainbows sparkling
crystal grainy rapids
sliding intrepidly through life’s fingers

their coloured sands speak in tones
they are obtuse and vapid 
like snowflakes they fall 
confetti on my hands

Writing you 
between there
and here again
a feckless court...

That What Was Then Is Becoming and Now

When the Universe created the Universe and allowed for challenge 

It was quite open to change and the preponderance of ageing times

Youth is not a crime and the respect for seniority has to be earned

Humanity Upon the Falling

Catastrophic predictions for humanities future

Labyrinth of Sighs

Labyrinth of Sighs 

Wondering through a labyrinth of sighs 
More platitudes with attitudes that never question why 
A litany of afterthoughts about where we go when we die 
An emboldened range of rude retorts refuting...

I Am Not a Good Friend

I encourage her in so many ways, highlight her talents, minimise insecurities, tell her over and over again ‘she’s got this!’ I’d never dare champion myself, be in such awe; have the audacity of self-belief.

A Contemplative Sojourn Through the Breeze

A Contemplative Sojourn Through The Breeze

The continuity of perspective required for accurate conclusions 
The ingenuity of the reflective inspired by immaculate infusions 
The co-morbidity of defective desires for considerate inclusions

Combinations of Catastrophe

Combinations of Catastrophy 



Combinations of catatstrophic scenarios everywhere I look

Invocations of prehistoric evidence collides with the big book

Complications that are caustic that sit in their niches and their nooks 

Calibrations that the agnostic makes as...

Culminations Of Beauty

Culminations of Beauty 



Culminations of beauty cascading down from a twighlight sky 

Ruminations worth refuting while I’m always asking why 

Communications leave me fuming as the point is lost and denied 

Calculations that are looming...

Neil Armstrong

The great man is dead
And he may find in this voyage
So many Columbus that left us blind
Without knowledge
Of earth indisputable speck
Steering the shipwreck
With malfunctioned cameras of dream.

The great man is dead
What this this new situation...

The Idiot

For a reason unknown I awoke in the night
While the sun approached the edge as it might
If it wished to awaken this side of the ball
With the slightest of nudges, if any at all.

No. I’d...

Blooma Yehudis, Fruma Truths

Blooma Yehudis, Fruma Truths
A verse to nurse Barbara's 72nd
"Zos Channukah", warm memories of lights,
Shared stories, & hopefully Chaim's "Maor Tzur",
Stayed tenor, forgive my lapses of soprano heights,
Together, we & gymnast flames soar,
Contemplate, mindfully weigh gold...

The Informed Voter

Oxymoron of the day: Politically Correct

“Hi, I’m Carl Palmer and I approve of this poem.”

Donald Trump called, knew my name,

Antimony Foolishness

Antimony Foolishness
Age 51 is often when one’s unable,
To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending.
New sports car, how youthful!  Refuting the label,
Of premature old age, gray hair pending.
Girl friends need to be...

Wellborn Woes

A baron's efforts to hold his wealth
only to have it turn on himself.
His estate slips away like water
so sad his firstborn was a daughter.
Which would have likely prevented her
through the norms of primogeniture
to assume a...

News Or Views

Once was a time when you could believe
Things happened like you heard on the news
Now, you cannot be too sure about that
For you are hearing a commentator’s views.

Reporting events has become so politicized
