Long Shadorma Poems

“ the problem with Equality is that we desire it only with our superiors”


“Equal were all and happy they all were,
Deceits and falsehoods were unheard of there,
Free from all illness, cares and infant deaths

Relentless.
My life keeps rolling
down the same
old train track
Chugga-chugga-chugga-chug!
rhythm in my brain

Like toy trains
mechanical and
steady, their
throbbing beat
predetermined path repeats
predictable loop

One track mind
takes me nowhere, but
feels oddly
comforting
stifling complacency
the near death of me

Frenemies
my lagging caboose
I let loose
so relieved!
Plugging...

~Friendship Bracelets~
(Shadorma)


Beautiful
Nice friendship bracelets
Colorful
So pretty
I love making them all time
And wear them, they're great!

Folks like them
Many make them too
Some wear them
Some sell them
Many just give them away
To a special friend

Wonderful
Are friendship bracelets 
With threads knotted

A Shadorma


Oh spectre
of the blackest ink,
satin shroud
feathering;
ignorance begets terror
though you are a bird.

Poe’s penning
only adds darkness
to legends
greatest plight;
feared by those who believe myth,
unfounded tall tales.

Cailleach did
feast on men’s bodies
in disguise,
a raven,
her dark disguise projecting
into human...

Through graveyard
meandering, just
me and Dad
stories sad
abbreviated down to
mostly names and dates

So we tell
their stories by turns
like poor Duane

died at age thirty-three of
bee sting allergy

So tragic
how she caught a chill
Angeline
age nineteen
who died before her wedding
day, her...

Unlikely
this romance between
Miss Cricket
and stodgy
Buddy Biddle, so stagnant
set in his ways, stuck

While Cricket
eighty-nine years young
dances rings
around him
full of impish energy
mischievous antics

He proposed
but Miss Cricket won't
marry him
knows better
she's outlived countless lovers
and won't be tied down

She's having

Avalanche…

It only
Takes one candle’s flame
To drive out
The darkness -
In an avalanche of light
To crush the shadows

It only
Takes one snowflake’s song
To start an
Avalanche 
Of mercy flowing chanting
In sweet melody

It only
Takes one brave flower
To stand up
Against storms
An...

She says she
has no life regrets
I envy
Miss Cricket
yet I wonder how she's lived
this long without one?

I wonder
was it worth it all?
To go through
life without
learning anything at all-
to end where you start?

She thinks so
maybe she forgets

You used to
lovingly coax my
keys with your
melodies
flirt and tease so playfully
high-note hitting glee

We enjoyed
taking tunes apart
upside down
inside out
syncopated Beethoven
bobbidy-boo beats

No small feat
with shimmy and shake
boogie, blues
jazz and all
the razzmatazz I could take
late nights wide awake

You...

A Shadorma

Pot-bellied, 
wizened old oak sage;
resting in
silent woods.
Each swollen arthritic joint
tells a magic tale.

Within dark
knotholes of blackness,
lie secrets;
songs only
sung when the woods are silent;
echoes of the past.

You don’t think
that I hear your voice,
when I walk
through...

Please don't wait
for me to feel it-
let's just start
from right here
awkward, numb and full of fear
it's now or never

Feeling dry
preserved, mummified
like something
long since dead
flickers of life in my head
haunting like a ghost

Trance-like walk
horror story style
down...
