Long Stiffed Poems

This is ANDERSON WALKINGSHOES... 
VERSE 1:
Observing the notional landscape about death,
Sometimes I begin to tear.
Faraway men rotten six feet under, dead;
What will I do when death angel appear?
The unknown place that's reserved for all men...

Hear my poem announce, then refine and restate
its life lesson suggestion Surrender YOUR Fear!
Yes, Surrender Your FEAR, watch stick rafters release

"Saddo...Saddo...",she kept calling me,
Yeah,I was sad,
So I was named Saddo,
Flowers fell from highest branches, 
Fruits fell from tall branches,
My days were full of worries and  mess,
Series of bad occurrence,
Many that laughed with me,
Same see...

A queen was spinning flax one day.
She gave her loom a jerk.
(Don’t ask what “flax” or “looms” might be,
or why a queen must work).

She pricked her finger (careful, now!)
yet Sigmund Freud would say
these children’s tales...

Falling, I don't know what to do
Down the lane, all thoughts sink
Traveling through my own blue
Coming, I feel Thy eyes' jot blink
You give me a hand in my hand
All thoughts give way, blue brand

Your hand...

down over the central USSR.  Here we are
imagining his conversation with a charge
d'affaires of the US Embassy. ...

I’ve not written to you for many years
Santa, I’m quite different from my peers
Not fancy or frilly like girly girls
And I don’t hanker for diamonds and pearls
Today I got the most terrible news
My muse abandoned...

To The Lady Of Shallot 
The gallent woman of love 
You're a beloved dove; 
Enticed by a glamorous knight 
Left the tower to get his sight; 
Immortal love faded away 
Among the wispen willows faraway;...

It was fifteen below
     when the gas ran out;
It was fifteen below
     and the snow knee high.
And the wind did sing,

Father,
Will you forgive the sins of where I began?
Some in which I still run.
Though accompanied by your holy deplore,
Will you forgive even the ones I have won
Others,
my sin to them has become a door.
My freedom...

He brought Putin with him as a partner in crime.
Working in cahoots to rob America blind.
Creating diversions while slipping in bots.
And, distance between the "Haves and Have-Nots."

Intimate Inclination?

Is there something you crave more than intimate love,
Does it possibly occupy space of its own?
Could a man be deserving, your hand mate to glove?
Or are you more a serf, prone in front of...

I wonder, why would someone dig in graveyards in the night
If they knew that I was here, they would get such a fright
A spade digs in the darkness, I can hear but cannot see
Digging in...

MY DECEMBER 

My little guy, precious one,
Felt pushed aside, by those lived among

Didn’t know the role you should fit in,
But like a sport, you stiffed your chin.

I was always there, you in my prayer

Release your taxes, no previous guilty verdicts,
No trail of stiffed creditors, no history of predatory
Sexual activity, no bullying or name calling,
No negative opinions of people of color or
Preferential opinions of white nationalist organizations,
No obvious lying,...

The awake awakened with wide eyes wide-opened.
Calls of the screaming sea, calling calls ceaselessly.
Pound-pounding ears attend, weakening abandon,
wend sea claps yonder, and then only beyond then,
toasting impacts extend hosting eyes to pretend.
Gestures the forgiving, bestirs...

Who told you that?
You weren't there,
If I'm small to know,
Many tongue will err,
The listener is selling a tactful lie,
It's done with a croon,
I'm not a cruel heart to fly,
Every poison of truth settled to comply,
What...

May I please say before we start

cuz right here's what you're looking for.
I AM this role!

But why take chances?...

Caught between Life and death
With roaring and panic 
Looking for hands but none
With glowing eyes.

Heavy breathe and gasp 
But none to show
Dive right to left
Waiting for the Joy that ceasen't

All eyes curious and expectant.
All legs...

To draw the string back, with a notched arrow,
To sense the taut twine pull against and test
The strength of stiffed up shoulders and flexed chest—
But not to loose the arrow at the sparrow; 

To aim,...

i do not have the power
to control what haunts
beneath night's sheets
nor the courage
to send them packing
from the depths 
of my mind
nor the words
to bid them farewell
nor the freedom
to learn how

i am trapped

my mind 
cries remembrance,
