The voices were painfully appalling...

A Sinner Like God
“I have forgiven mother”
She tarries with hope
that the good woman will pray her clemency for her own sins, 
but that hour is expired; 
Gee grew a strong wit
"Mother is no longer my burden"
Jesus came from...

The Sanctity of a Damsel Not On Sale
Seldom mistaken
A besotted bloke in New York
In love taken and shaken
Dreaming of an infatuation stroke

Bakes in his mind
A love niche his heart to gladden
Despite the labour grind
Of the love burden

Strutting his manifesto
Under a moonlight in...

I made a noose out of the stars
Of then,
Smoke of a squandered summer morn
The barrel of a summer afternoon 
And the spittle of the soundless shots of the stars within a summer eve
Homeless homage, tainted talent awaits to watch and berate
Wilting wonders...

I Don'T Write
My hands are either blessed or possessed

I feel as if I don't write

But that my spirit pours prophetic words onto the page

The more I grow and age

The less I have control over these urges

Nature is contemplating and testing.

Winter waits its...

Shadows and Lines
My dear friend and worst foe, 
you follow me wherever I go,
towering above me sometimes, 
falling behind at other times.

On sunny days, my braids I admired, for hours on end,
as you showed them swing, ...

Ann Romney's Blouse
Mitt Romney’s wife was criticized
(Though she was not defensive)
Because she chose to wear a blouse
Considered quite expensive.

She wore it on a TV show
So she would look her best,
But journalists decided that
She’d failed the litmus test.

Long-Lost
You bump into a former friend
You haven’t seen in years,
And catch up on the latest news
Of families and careers.

And all the time gone by
Just melts away, despite the truth
A mirror...

Alliteration #2: 
SURREAL


Sense sweet soul stirrings
Feel flavours fleeting


Realise rapture's rooms
Being blesses bloom


Claim cheer's charming choice
Promise piquant poise


Fleeting form figures
Lasting love lingers


Taste troubling tensions
Aim artful action


Plunder primal poise
Value vibrant voice


Silence splurges stains
Stillness sows sweet strains


Sightsee simple...
