Long Self imposed Poems

“Son”...”say goodnight to grandpa”

Spurred by mother dearest 
as well as other politesse
drummed into her second born
fobbing blandishments as incentive
tumbled off fingers of prodigal son
tripped wordsmith to splutter forth
forthwith the following lines.

Back in the day

that I invited you for my interview,
which would involve me asking...

About four plus weeks after

Cosmic polarizing predations

Prisoners of their own success

Their world now micro-sized

But to do so is frightening
Relinquishing of rules
