Long Smelted Poems

FICTIONAL BIO:

The missus asked me
(hitherto known as her bozo)
just mere moments ago
to craft humorous poem to glow
nsync with the shiny nose of Rudolph
keeping syncopated metrical flow
thus methought to crow
about being equally as foolish
streaking naked outside...

Long long ago in a lonely lovely hill
When earth was young, handsome and green
Besides the meadow near the curly winding flow
There stood a tree proudly high and spry.

Swaying and dancing in wheezy pleasy breeze
Never was...

As the last man on the planet Earth,
Time has become my mortal enemy.
A whole world to walk silently alone,
In fruitless reflection of what was.

The streets are fully empty now,
But I can still hear the traffic.

On my straw-like comfort,
With smudges just beneath the lids.
Dawn engulfing, still going forth
While the wind’s strength dwindles in its bid.
My ears muffled up to its opening
As musical sensations tingle it.
Same it did from a kit,...

Copper blooms, titanium too below the iron of the sky
Rich fields of ore, quarried, lay everywhere without a quarrel
In conjunction with all things shiny on the land and rust of day

Mountains pinnacles are miles high

THOU I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF DEATH, I FEAR NO EVIL
Stricken but not stripped
Cursed but never coursed
Shot and never block
Stomped but stopped
Broke but never fell
Slapped to be crushed 
And drag down in hell
So you...

It fell from a grey sky
That exhibited darker clouds
From the smouldering of the earth
Over the land of the rhino

It covered all with whiteness
And turned the tone of the continent
Into emptiness
The people and the wildlife vacating...

A shadow, nay, sullen thunderhead 
inducing a deluge of emotions 
moved across thousands of darkened souls

Freaks, stoners
shy, smart
geeks and loners
outcasts with dreams and compassion in their heart

Strangers like me

To us, you were a friend
we live...

Bellowed in ones soul he found the truth.
Blatantly before the mask of whispered lights,
Was the prison of genius minds of every generation.
Shadows of the ever fading light creeped in the cells.
Bars of uncontrollable outcomes blocked...

The lightly touching tinkling bells,
Shimm'ring, babbling, laughing in the breeze,
The ever-merry tapping bells,
Who now has these?

Low, slow, iron bells;
Deep, still, lead bells.
Bells.  Bells.  Bells.

All gladly-sounding glowing golden-bells,
Lilting, lighter, brighter yellow bells,
Mightier-yellow even whiter...

Passions de l’amour vrai

The texture of your caresses, soft like an egret’s plumes
When you touch me, my soul’s sheathed longing ruptures
Your fragrance engrossing adorns scents of jasmine perfumes,
Sheltered snugly within your arms, you disrobe my...

Reality is a stark, ugly truth,
stripped of its veneer of make-believe.
Your choices in life define the parameters
of your imagination.
And hardening your resolve to survive,
experience grinds a cutting edge
on cold cast-iron cynicism,
smelted in the crucibles of...

In a place, the eyes could barely lead,
For the pair were no more of any use.
Clouded by past memoirs, some glow and some so blue.
Lost thereof, for nothing else made any sense.

The sky turned from dewy drab to gunmetal.
Pewter raindrops slipped down the window like mercury.

I went out onto the covered deck to smoke a cigar and sky gaze.
Iron winged grey geese had shed their metallic...

As Swedish lightning enters
Renders day from deepest night
And (soulful) wishers beg
Mortgaging their tearful fortunes
For an ounce of pure spiritual bullion
With happy veins glistening
Truth, honor, sufficient respect
Among the smelted ore
Ready for mold and use
Pass me down

The sky turned from drab to gunmetal grey;
pewter raindrops slipped through pools of mercury.
I went out onto the covered deck to smoke a cigar.
Steely hued geese flew through metallic showers,

My life got screwed up faster
The snails move slower

Me unplugged memories with her
She believed me as a mother as I

The grasp of the dew-brushed nettle stung
As the raven, his beak-cracked voice proclaimed,
The desolator of all possible worlds
Smelted in copper and finally named;
Hung heavy with threads of fire and gold frost,
Good rhetoric spat of earth...
