Long Showoff Poems

Fred’s feeding his neighbour’s pet parrot,
He replaced its water with claret,
Poll dropped off her perch
Now Fred’s in the lurch
and claiming it choked on raw carrot

Big trouble is looming for Fred
As Polly is very much dead

You made up a wondrous, precious melody inside me
If I was sober and less numb, I would’ve felt it, baby

Welcome to savage kingdom
Very bountiful but deadly
The kingdom where only the
Fittest survive and thrive
Striving seriously for a living
The weak and fearful are preys
Societal programming the tools.

Welcome to savage kingdom
Where the sheep are scared 
Of the...

They come to her hungry - hopeful
To be fed facile fantasy, a script he held 
Stowed in  boyhood through decades
Recessed where sweating shame dwelled 
Invisible while he achieved accolades 
Gridiron big man outperform boastful

Flick a dee, fick a dee, fick a dee, flick,

To lose you is my only fear,

My ears have heard enough cheap gossip, enough nonsense, and...

Imagine if you would,
a comedic TV show.
Funny most evenings
and has a nice flow.

The guy who works
for Police homicide
the one who dose

He actually tells...

Hear the screams in the night, they are shattering
moonlight breaking, reverberating, splattering
Down the hall, she feels so small, cradled by the dark
blood red like roses are finger petaled swelled slap marks
Makeup smears with tears like...

What to say.....


Sometime I feel like life is just a dark way 
Where we move like a shadow 
Don't know what is the meaning of that 
And why we are here 

Sometime I feel nothing...

Baggy pants, oversized shirt,
Who washed?

We ignore him until he wanders away.

Only to just see

She’s a showoff, a braggart, exhibitionist,
A Grande Dame, a diva …yet
Her Bette Midler/Madonna persona
Is revealed to only people like me

Long live your glory!
Your demise makes us worry
Though you're wise,remained calm
Illiterate empty vessels always harm

So devastating is the joy this arm brings
To the poor and the needy 
With shabby hearts from the titled elite
Heart's  illness is a showoff to seal
The foaming chants on the street
And on the news...

My brother had his friends 
and I had mine.
We were playing
in a tree that was 
easy to climb.
He was showing off
jumping from limb to limb
only this time he missed
and I watched him fall.
One bone is...
