Prognosticating Present Plight

Prognosticating Present Plight...
Perhaps Preset During In Utero Protean Stage?

Reviewing, sans my life
and arduous hard time
lock, stock, and barrel on regular basis,
and of late composing
this, that, or another rhyme,

now I acquiesce past 
trials and tribulations
contributed positive, and
negative effects, yes prime
air really prepubescent nexus

with entering seventh grade,
sobbing and crying at bedtime
leaving Henry Kline Boyer,
a miserable yet sentimental clime,
one romper room class schoolhouse

entering Methacton, what seemed
crushingly, frightfully, incredibly humongous
(actually, not an exceptionally large
learning place for hippo campus)
nonetheless mine fragile psychological

state cannibalized by anthropophagus
mailer daemons conjurations analogous
to mythological beasts avaricious
even slim picking morsel - satisfactory,
this then overwrought extremely anxious

bundle of nerves burning with arsonous
punishing self treason backlash atrocious
reaction kindling tindered
self destructive spark rampantly autonomous
ruinously, quintessentially passively,

opportunistically audacious
hell bent on mortal kombat
to a starving slow seditious death,
this no matter auspicious
native intelligence, capability, aptitude...

now entertain notion
suicidal seed avaricious
since...commencement when fertilized ova
simultaneously begat barbarous

biological blastula birthing blasphemous
counterproductive stealthy burglarious
itty bitty kamikaze blitzkrieg
spewing, issuing, and garnering
hollow weaning cadaverous

sole son foretelling calamitous
alarming father and mother
necessitated immediate intervention,
the instinctual innate calculus
attuned to soundless clangorous

foretelling stoppable death knell
relieved, through aggressive copious
life saving measures, nonetheless deleterious
repercussions hobbled me, disastrous
behavior seeped into lifelong existence!

FOREWORD: I have no idea if this actually works... I’ll let you decide

TWELTH KNIGHT

If you truly love me you shall do as I ask
To demonstrate your ardour, I set for you this task
I shall not make it easy to prove your love to me
So this, Sir, is my challenge, go do it gallantly

Fetch for me a ton or two of what I like for tea
Nine trucks full of dripping will serve me perfectly
And payback for those people who used to pick on me
A dozen blokes to thrash them is satisfactory

You know those metal baths, that folk would once scrub up in
Fetch for me five small ones to do my washing up in
And when the washing up is done who’s gonna wipe the plates
It might seem rather silly but for that... eleven snakes

Vegetables should not be damp so here’s what my next wish is
Bring for me exactly four Perforated dishes
Some shaven men to trim my lawn, be sure that seven come
And two mittens the colour of the deepest darkest plum

An ancient drink called koumiss, that comes from way back when
Had honey and some milk in, so bring me eight of them
A few young men to fix my socks, better make it ten
And then bring me from Normandy three fellows, all called Den

Find some men to exercise my reindeer with their sleigh
If you accept my challenge, bring six of them my way
And finally a big old fridge you’ll have to find for me
But only if the offer is buy one and get two free.



Well It took less than a fortnight to get the challenge done
Just twelve days to finish off the task he had begun
And while he wouldn’t often read his lovers diary
She had left it open, so he’d see what he would see

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me...

Twelve drubbers drubbing
Eleven vipers wiping
Ten laddies darning
Nine loads of dripping
Eight meads with milk in
Seven shorn and strimming
Six geysers sleighing
Five old tin sinks
Four colanders
Three french Dens
Two purple gloves
And a large fridge and a pair free

October 16th 2018 a Day At the Market With the Missus

October 16th, 2018, A Day At The Market With The Missus

Oft times zee spouse
     lingers at select
     supermarkets (Landis, Redners, 
     and/or Wegmans) without me
(figuratively) taking
     all the time in the world
     allowing this mister to reflect
alone (imaging tubby

     a Norwegian bachelor farmer)
     toying with this, that, or the
     other writing project
sitting facing this
     Macbook Pro laptop
     within this one
     bedroom apartment
     comprising a quite

     satisfactory unit, sans
Highland Manor Apartments 
     in the heart
     of Schwenksville, Pennsylvania
reveling in solitude meditating, reading,
     or trying valiantly to connect
continuity of words,
     always pleasantly surprised

     at finished product
     (predominantly, asper
     hashing out a poem)
     with unpredictable captivating aspect
letting thoughts flow as they
     may burst asunder
quickly keying
     thee elusive threads,

     albeit unconcerned
     making a typing blunder
     mainly focused on
     barley distilling, coalescing,
and brewing alphabetic dunder,
when over zealousness
     frequently setting wing
to literary creation, which
     smug modesty, nonetheless

     finds this scrivener to sing
(unwittingly premature 
     silent ejaculations)
     joyus rapturous threnody,
     whereat ring around the rosy
     abruptly ends caused by
renegade doppelganger quisling
shell shocks yours

     truly wear re: eyes
     mimic pinball ping
experiencing short lived
     (dramatic beaming effusion)
     to plummet giving
little attention to proof read,
     versus when I indiscriminately fling
an unpolished epistle of Matthew

     riddled with glaring mistakes,
     aye suddenly feel
     embarrassed like a damned ding
bat reprimanding myself
     and wrathful madness doth bring!

Rare as each blossom on a tree,
From Watusi tribe unto the Cherokee,
Each member of man's family,
Has their own unique biography.

Rare the nights of burgundy,
That prelude yellow dawn ecstasy!
Green are the fields so summery;
Pink the rose of fragrancy.

Silvery moon most satisfactory,
And stars winking at you and me.
Nature speaks not of equality;
Pale butterfly to grasshopper free.

Deep blue sky and frothing sea,
And colors of the nebulae.
A spectrum of hues, each in harmony,
Is how it was all meant to be.

Redbird red sings a rhapsody,
Pretty bluejay warbles his gaiety.
The sun shines on His Majesty,
As orchards respond fruitfully.

Brainstorming For Me Generates Writers Block

Brainstorming (For Me) Generates "Writer's Block"

Lesson obstruction,
     but more so an over
     whelming flood of ideas
     makes dredging, conceiving
than giving birth
to an amenable notion
     more difficult than grabbing,
     (even a tony tiger) by the tail,

     who readily admits
     said titled quasi moniker
     denoting onset, sans
     (to experience authorial dearth)
of satisfactory acceptable theme
     (first to pinpoint, than expound)
     more accurate generalization
     cerebral struggle

     regularly visits this Earth
ling, when embarking upon
     a literary creative enterprise,
     thus gluttonous analogy 
     to swollen girth
after gorging ravenous
     appetite on verge
     to keel (crushing

     screened iron curtain garrison)
     over 'pon arduously
     (belching at every
     step, viz process),
     while lumbering
     to heavenly hearth,
(a Homeric Odyssey) filling
     the dining hall with mirth,

thus, I hoop fur 
     ewe dear reader,
     spending your time
     whiz wool worth
the effort receiving insight about,
how this logophile really
     haint goot much clout
to boast, (nor doth,

     he...wrack his mind
     to coon sitter) himself devout
lee gifted, (cuz...he aint),
     nor does yours truly
     make pretenses to flout
any arrogance, bombast,
     conceit, et cetera,
     yet avers pain

     staking effort
     (akin to sinking grout)
to plug up gushing geyser of
     superfluous excess bursting,
     competing, and exploding
     beyond capacity of this lout
finding me (a 
     piggish porcine – person)

     hogtied with no
     recourse but to pout
reaching pig tailed wits end,
     as pertains to this poetic scout,
who welcomes inspirational uber lyft
     through swiftly tailored
     harried sty hill.


Though Amply Rested, I Still Yawn

And feel energized after
light exercise doth spawn
an mental impasse,
where endeavor to coax
literary creativity analogous
to a figurative curtain drawn

shut tight within
thy noggin unresponsive
even when brute force
strongly applied, but still...
no progress made come crack of dawn,
thus temporarily abandon intent

to craft satisfactory poem or prose,
which coveted brainstorm burst adrip
saturating yours truly head to toes
dribbling out nostrils,
asper my porpoise size nose,
hence this feeble effort to appease

with no expected attaboy, kudos, bravoes...
discerning whaling imploring be
sea ching, sans anonymous followers
waiting for me to compose
meaningless gibberish or
profound nugget of wisdom to disclose

while thrashing within cyber sea,
possibly abandoning ambition to compose
superbly coined adage
eye catchingly exotic
as silk negligee pantyhose
(yea...perhaps send near nude selfie)

or chuck stocking favoring frescoes
tattooed across flesh
accentuating anatomical contours
wharf flexing muscles simulates geckoes
(albeit selling progressive insurance)
appearing to slither across body electric

predictably ejaculating Freudian peccadillos,
now bolt upright awake, no longer sleepy,
but dwarfed by giant spuds, no small potatoes
eh...yar right to deem this poker face

one among many bumptious desperadoes,
and mooch hoe gracias reading poem
bumbling, degenerating, fizzling...
into lobbying primal salvoes.

Though Amply Rested I Still Yawn

Though amply rested, I still yawn

And feel energized after
light exercise doth spawn
break through viz mental impasse,
where endeavor to coax 
germinating ideas to sprout
about as successful as 
buzzfeeding, jump/kick starting 
rooting brown lawn
to whether drought.

Long fostering literary creativity
analogous to prying open
figurative curtain drawn
shut tight within
thy noggin unresponsive
even when brute force
strongly applied, but still...
no progress (for aging Pilgrim)

No expected attaboy, kudos, bravoes...

While thrashing within cyber sea,

superbly laced, ginned, coined... 
poetic adage gee oh 
into magnum opus masterpiece
eye catchingly exotic creation
exquisite as silk negligee pantyhose

Cock Rock Schlock Ad Hoc

seminal squirt didst sanctify 
   an anonymous boulder 
when mercury dipped below 
   hashtag mark registering colder

than usual temperatures circa 
   winter of year 2000 in proximity 
   to the sacred chapel 
   at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania

   (house zing carillon player) 
   rifling thru manilla folder
first inn search of apropos 
   mailer daemon organ muse sic, 

   thence finely pitted secretly riddled with holes 
   encoded sheet threaded thru bell jar contrivance 
   sans, handy dandy mechanical holder
to accompany prurient powerful phallic pang 
   bubbling (like the dick kens), and didst smolder

especially, cuz a free ranging 
   NON GMO, puss in boots 
hello kitty sauntered 
   (emanating pheromone heat 
   hand dill lee pronouncing feral passe faux foots), 

dripping, seething with hormonal secretion 
   uttered via vow welled roots
gluten and monosodiumglutinate free pussy 
   hapt tabby on the prowl ready 
   for par laid view penile piqued Saint Peter 

   to enter heavenly labial shoots
rather than suffer frost bite
the above mew wing tigress attempted  
   to keep toasty warm 
   ('thou minuscule tunnel 

   lacked add dick quit light)
prickly endowment fired 
   raging testosterone 
   with braggadocio, brio, bravura and might

owing pretentiously pusillanimous feline 
   fur reed black as night
hood hit attempt to cap cha moxie orgasmic 
   thus ensuing a mutually satisfactory plight

until a park ranger back his utility truck  
   than gregarious, felicitous, erogenous
then quick as greased lightening 
   horny creatures disappeared out ta sight.

FONDEST MEMORY

FONDEST MEMORY

A childhood memory considered as fond, I can’t recall
Perhaps it all was satisfactory, better than nothing at all
There was a love and kindness, little to complain about
Some days were only a blur, but some things stood out
Like the time when I must have been just five years old
First day at school when everyone did as they were told
Kind teacher and simple rules, with a degree of lenience
Exploring a new world, and playtime a novel experience
My home life was fine, I had toys and food on the table
And nudging against the boundaries, as far as I was able
There were good times for sure, when I fill in those gaps
Yet was any memory fond, maybe none - or all, perhaps

Premium Member Only Harry

Only Harry 
Could find “Love in The Kitchen Sink”
I love the way he looks at the world
and the things he makes me think

A single sip is not satisfactory 
I recommend a big drink
Not “A One Hit Wonder”
All his messages interlink

“The Road Is Long”
“Traveling From The Fields of Grief”
His thoughts offer comfort
a path to relief.

His is a “Significant Pen”
That writes “Naked Words”
He travels his own way
Not one prone to follow herds

Whether “Whispering Ferns”
Or “A Little Girl Once Lost”
He weighs his words carefully 
Aware of their cost

One “Waits Upon The Horizon”
For “A Magical Spring”
Make No Mistake
That isn’t a small thing

“There Is A Place”
Where “A House Divided falls”
He can “Colour Me Lilac”
As I’m absorbed into walls

“The Blue And The Grey”
The “Lady Down The Lane”
I learn about humanity
As he reveals their pain

A “Voice In The Wilderness”
Who’s “Coming Of Age”
He will answer “A Worthy Question”
With the words on his page
