LOVE DERAILED
Whose unscathed heart has dared to love,
for to love is to feel the pain.
Is it true love that hurts not the heart,
or just two passing trains?
In the best of times, dinner and wine,
when love feels like it shoud.
Dither and doubt linger about.
That dirt makes it hurt so good.
Love isn't fair, tis all but a dare,
arrogant, selfish, obtuse.
The winners gloat only in the grave
losers go back to the caboose.
Old lines and hard times denigrate the steel
making the cars woble and sway.
Even riding the smoothest rail,
clickety clack clickety clack, all day.
Left at the station, the end of the line,
Infatuation's purple heart.
The grotesque beauty of attraction
tis the angst of most great art.
When pain's embraced you've lost the race,
there is nothing left to see.
Bought and paid for, gelded and roped
like voluntary slavery.
If on romance you've take the chance,
I wish you the very best.
End of the line of the honeymoon train
It's all down hill for the rest.
November Ninth the President
By Franklin Price
11/9/2016
November ninth the president elect is thought to be:
Donald Trump with outside chance will get the victory.
It's nip and tuck and hardly fought; the vote count is not done.
There are states that are so close still hard to tell who won
Democrats have gone home, the hour's Two A.M.,
Will be no concession speech tonight from Hillary to him.
The newsmen on the TV are trying to look good;
Saying that they knew it, it has happened as it should
They make me sick the way they act. They've blocked him every way.
Now it looks as if he's won, they'll kiss his ass today.
I hope it doesn't turn around; have a foul called in the race.
We the People now have spoken; establishment we're in your face.
He may not be the smoothest, a politician he is not,
We all must get behind him to see what he has got.
We've heard all that he's promised, now he will get his chance.
We'll see if he's got two left feet, or if he can dance the dance
Don't know if that will happen, still not saying he's the best,
Only that he's won the fight and outlasted all the rest.
The hour is two forty, and we just got the pump
Hillary has conceded with a phone call to the Trump
The struggle's finally over now the good work can begin
Donald Trump's acceptance speech, said we'll make us great again
We'll fix America together, cooperation is the word
America will be great again; at least that's what I heard.
A wine connoisseur and Life
Trickling pearls of red and white
The sizzling hot, the fizzing out
Pinot noir, Reisling, Chardonnay
Teroldego, Norton , Carbanet
Deliverance from all the doubts
As he sees, swirls, sniffs, sips, savors
For once he chooses, its best of world
The embroidered sweet drops with finest taste
The embellished pearly drops with blissful tizz
Oenophile's stemware filled with recherche expertise
Like a bagpiper playing best among best of tunes!
Floats our life's canoe over varied wines of emotions
We the connoisseurs need to take the tasting flight
And drink from bottles of right emotions
And drink from glasses poured in blends of doses right
To row the canoe through smoothest wines,
exotic choices we ought to make...
And enjoy the tizz of happiness,
Savor the taste of contentment,
Relish the sparkling journey
of life to cherish a vintage life!

LET US TAKE AN OATH
==============
Dream is passion
passion means pain,
Without pain
there is no gain,
Let us take an oath
to make our dream
better and best,
With maximum effort
and minimum rest.
Duty is god
god means brain
without brain
duty creates strain,
let us take an oath
to make our duty
smoother and smoothest,
with maximum effort
and minimum rest.
Love is life
life means dream,
without dream
life is a crime,
let us take an oath
to make our life
easier and easiest
with maximum effort
and minimum rest.
-------------------------
Note:
As per India's Ex-president Mr. APJ Abdul Kalam "Life with no dream is a crime"
You once gave me such a thrill, eager
To meet you with a yearning heart full
So hungry, thirsting for your vibrant
Flow of crimson devotion, love so
Alive with serenity and dreams
Awakening hope within my soul
Lighting up my whole life with kindness
Exploding with whispers of feeling
Caressing my spirit with soft warmth
Painting my nature with hues of hope
Brilliant shades of joy and soothing faith
Singing to my soul of fond friendship
You once gave me a feeling that was
Filled with loving vows resonating
Within, where every vision gossips
About the longings that thrive inside
Where wonders embrace all my beliefs
Assure my dreams that they will have wings
Encourage my love to feel real
Like the sun rising round the mountains
Touching the cold limbs and branches with
Warmth from the middle of the fond heart
Catching the touch of moments breathing
Flawless grace through the spirit’s essence
You once gave me promises of love
Today you sigh grimly of wrinkles
And tresses that resemble silver
Where I once shone with vibrant color
And smoothest skin roaring innocence
Birthday, my friend, go back where you’ve been

Daydreams and memories
Like skimming stones across a creek
Sometimes seeming
to skip on endlessly
Before finally going under
Just touching on moment after moment
of your existence
Before sinking into a particular memory
Other times just a few jumps
dipping into flashbacks
Here and there
Before disappearing underwater
Then there's the miss-throw
Plunging straight in
to a vivid moment of your life
That has touched you deeply
And....
like the stone
You sink...
The inevitable result
Every time
There is no other ending
You always end up in the water
Reliving a part of your day
Or a moment long past
Joyful memories
Hurtful memories
It makes no difference
You will always sink
It is the nature of the stone
It seems uncontrollable
Totally a wild beast
Random and unpredictable
But it doesn't have to be the end of the story
You can change it
Take control of the skipping
Choose the smoothest rock
learn to choose WHICH memories to drown in
Skip past the nightmares
Sink into the happy ones
learn how to hold your breath underwater
Find yourself a scuba diving set
For me, it's reading a good book and writing poetry
that supplies me with oxygen
Use when needed
And
you push on
Reaching for a time that made you happy
Or turned your heart into a pool of molten wax
A time that made you laugh
till tears ran down your cheeks
Had you flying through the air
Free as a bird
Or dancing on the clouds
crying from overwhelming gratitude
Everyone has some moment in their life
That they felt good about
As small as a smile from a stranger
At a time when you needed someone to notice you
Or as momentous as holding your first baby in your arms
Each time you
succeed in reaching the happy points
You become stronger
Happier within yourself
And you begin to create more heartfelt moments to remember
So you fall less and less into the bad daydreams
You just have to learn to breathe underwater
Strengthen your lungs
Exercise your throwing muscles
And become a brilliant stone skipper
Until
One day
You will skip right over to the other bank.
As lovers tethered to the sandy shore
Who feel the soft motion of smoothest waves
As love's warmest lips meet for love and more
In wondrous desires this our moment craves
Beneath the changing sky, our love will find
A sensual realm of dreams we will view
In a world of tenderness so aligned
To wet the quiet eyes from love so true
We'll hold the gentle hand to bond as one
And watch our footprints vanish in the sand
From the night removing red from the sun
Then fill the sky with a stary concert grand
To feel the waves upon love's warmest skin
To save this moment, watch the dawn begin
12/13/19
on a cruise with my ex and her new man
i am here for our two kids and their smiles
i find a quiet place and listen to garnet mimms
my common sense punches me in the face
my stupidity laughs in my face
i look at the blue water and say a quiet prayer
that is when i open my eyes to the smoothest buttercream legs
i look up slowly and a smile that woke up the sunshine refreshes my self esteem
i forget about the stresses of my unwise choice and begin a conversation
guided by God, we inspire the moon to rise with a smile
the next day is departure day, but the beginning of a New Arrival Revival
instead of the ship sinking, it makes it safely to shore
I'm thinking I have a disease
Despair has gripped me by my feet
Dragged me down to the cold floor
And used me until I couldn't take it anymore
I found a cure to eternal life
Slower and longer than a rusty knife
But it hits me just the same
Cauterized with a smoky flame
My throat is burning
Fingers turning
Over a lighter and a smoke
And my brow is soaked
How long til something finally breaks?
How long until it's more than I can take?
I'm too exhausted to even talk
I'm being worn down like the smoothest rock
I try to strike the match again
Burned my fingers and my smoky brain
A sudden fear comes back to me
Won't you come help me lose my memory?
It's getting easier
To fail to please her,
My addiction to despair
Is stronger than for air
I'm a victim of my own design
I am my own executioner
I'm a victim of my own design
I am my own worst enemy
The past, a memory covered in fog
As shadows hold court though they come and go
A silent movie without dialogue
A dark play with tears is now a freak show
You caused the stage to go black, in shadowed form
Where tears that fell silent tried to hide
And trembling hands were caught in love's storm
Lost in a cloud of anguish, love has died
Once we were lovers, we are nothing now
As we only have the sad tomorrow
And no one will be there to take a bow
Never understood time was to borrow
To be in love again, filled with wonder
To not be sad from love split asunder
We met again, upon the ocean shore
And felt the motion of its smoothest wave
To search for reasons of our love and more
Forgive the anger which became our grave
There between the soft sand and sky, we'll find
Love lost now found, grand as the widest view
A splendid world warm as the waves are kind
To wet our quiet eyes with love that's true
We'll hold the tender hand to bond as one
Watching footprints fade in the warmest sand
And see the red sky from the setting sun
Falling into the night 'till stars command
To feel each wave upon the smoothest skin
Touch the moment when we found love again
