Long Rush out Poems

You are my pest-friend,
As you may not know,
And I deem it my pleasure and privilege
To write this panegyric of you.

Mostly chocolate brown in complexion;
And very rarely, if ever, you produce a freakish white.
In your worldwide...

What is this world really about?

I can listen to the President and still not understand a word out of his mouth,

Is he for the American people or is he only in office to institute wars,

She storms into the room
there is fire in her eyes
and thunder in her step
rage rumbling reckless
She's livid
a live wire of fire
charged
She's on the move
To punish
Is it a rumor or reality?
He has explaining to do...

She rushes...

The screen door slams behind me
As I rush out into the blinding sunlight
Wondering where my big brother is hiding
I better get to the pool before he finds me
And throws me into the ice cold water

A POOR BOY’S CHRISTMAS

There was a poor boy in a town not very far away
Who went to bed one Chrisrtmas Eve and he began to pray,
“I know, dear Lord, that I am poor, my family’s...

This ends right now.
Confided in me then threw it all away
There can be no love left within me

But you've lost it all now - I've given up on you.

'I love you'
What she didn't say
'I'll miss you'
What she didn't say
'I'll remember you'
What she didn't say
but I thought I felt it in her eyes
I thought she meant the truth
I thought the number she gave me...

Magic Beans of Many Colors

In a magical fairyland I reside, 
herons, toucans, rainbow lorikeets, peacock angels,
hummingbirds, ostrich, even a cockatrice
of magnificent colors that harmonize.
They take flight and soar in the glorious effulgent wide
blue sky; roost...

Soldiers Called
© 2009 (Jim Sularz)

In a strange Land, in a far-off Sea, ships set sail to scar Man and Earth.
When diplomacy fails, shattering Hopes for Peace, hate propels War’s unwanted birth.

The alarm blasts me awake
From a fitful night’s sleep,
Another day of bills to pay
And promises to keep.
Dropping Patanol in my eyes 
As I attempt to slowly rise,
Feeling disparate deja vus 
As my morning coffee brews.

And...

*no outsiders allowed inside
a lone rule breaking in
a no rule zone
nowhere to go in an open sea,
lost with somewhere to go

a sleepless dream
or was it a dreamless sleep?

getting confused with the steadiness
of finally feeling a...

There, at the parapet, part-built with corpses,
Where we dug out the two year old bones of the French,
Stands on the second rung of the ladder,
The corporal keeping watch from the lip of the trench.

His periscope...

A Little Kindness Never Hurts

Her bad reputation was talk of our small town
she'd rush out to get mail in her flimsy nightgown
rumors spread about her lovers in her large bed
and how one is not enough,...

As others Rush out from Subdivisions 
applying War Paint hiding Scars
All have Grand Designs, their own Missions

A CHRISTMAS AGO

My Christmas present list 
Every year
Got longer and longer,
What to buy
Whether far or near
I certainly have always got joy
Out of giving,  
Just two months ago, I thought
Things are getting out of hand,
What...

A short, fat man with ruddy nose
Who dresses up in ruddy clothes
And sits behind a tiny herd
Of reindeer as they fly like birds

Across the sky delivering gifts
To boys and girls. He must be swift!
To answer...

(In a tiny wooden cabin, 
One doesn’t say “have” but “haben”.
No one is there to speak
The husband and doctor,
Are both appropriately meek.)

Solely the doctor at her side,
The husband has left and gone outside.
Appropriate fear for...

Our mum is magic,
We promise she is!
A marvellous, fabulous,
Magical whizz.

With a wink of her eye,
And a nod of her head,
Each morning she'd magic us,
Out of our bed.

Then a click of her heels,
And a tap to...

Never the skinny, you always show your flex,

“How was your day?” I ask,
“Fine,” You walk away.
“How are you feeling?” I question,
“Okay,” You sigh and go upstairs.
“Do you want a hug?” I smile,
“No, I’m late!” You rush out the door.
“What time will you...
