Long Tapper Poems

From 2010. Narrator is Robert Gibbs, snooty White House Press Secretary.

Who persist to query me on matters they know I must...

 without  any idea  of a subject

Her flapping wings ceased the troubled storm,
The ant of the dwarf looks like an Iroko.
Toweling my ego towards her fixed feelings
She penned her pride just perfectly to me;
The raw prettiness that bleeds her feminity.
Alas! The...

What have you done, for you look like a perch?
On Botox you should've done some research
I won't sugarcoat it
You look very bloated
Your face is engorged, and some will besmirch

Resembling a puffer with puckered lips
I wanna...

And back when I was a child 
I was shaped by how life started to defile
Absent of trial
Always another extra mile to walk 
Learned a lot learning not to talk 
I prefer to listen 
Not...

the season of blessings is season of rains,
showers from heavens for humanities gains, 
the rumbling thunder with the low flying clouds, 
with a crack of lightening blitzing aloud!

I call you a ghost -
 for how do you get through 
these walls built with hewn stones 
shipped from mountains of understanding?
 How do you lure me 
by telling all the honeyed realms
 I'm...

The beauty in you speak about you
When the sun is on vacation to the west.
The dimples on the top of your smile
Runs a vampire of emotions to my soul.
In your vein lies the fantasy of...

DRUMBEAT

The early morning silence,
Pierced by the melody of the birds,
And coarse craw of the cock,
The bleating of the goats and sheep for fresh fodders,
Squirrels hopping to and fro,
Devouring the ripe palm nuts atop the palm...

*I Will Cry*

If this world really mattered,
Why does it bleed?

I could tell you how much I love you,
But, that will never heal the pain.
I am never at peace.
Every day I cry for grace. 
Every day...

PALMWINE

The tapper ascends the height,
To get it from the palm sap,
The height he descends having the mysterious gift of nature,
Crystal like the caspian sea.



Grey hairs with their cups at hand,
Ready to taste the feeling of...

for Thirugnanamoorthy

Remorseful, the noonday sun
Frizzles with the stealthy wind
Under the rubbery mountain green.
A calmness has come to rest
From having tossed in its sleep.
The forest has taken leave
Of the hunted horn and drum.
No more the tapper...

That skin-and-bone-like,
Chocolate-colored veteran, 
Fragile personality accession;
Ascends tallest of palms, 
Committed to toddy-tap, 
As it’s his hereditary profession...!

Driving upward and down, 
Like a smart willing monkey, 
He reaches the highest of height;
Sitting over the petite petioles,...

through my sleeping
a bit of napping
i kissed the tip
of a tapper
tapping
countless creations
of ever lasting
flips the flap
in tricks of timing
t’is only this
at pebbles shore
the hips and lips
of evermore
whispering mist
of wishes lore
could it be heaven

I finally saw the debate,
My spirits prepared to deflate,
For I’d heard it was rough
(Lies are hard to rebuff)
But I needed to get it all straight.

I agree that Joe Biden looked weak
And he fumfers when trying...

On a Wednesday 
Or even a better day.
I can't catch you.
The fast paced racer
Needs the best story.
Rich parables and attention.

The quick mess
That is never soothing.
My anxious ride is ending,
I've changed for better or worse.
But the...

Forever you're gonna be my papa
Even if I no rich and I be palmwine tapper.
The joy you gave me by reincarnating
Is priceless and worth celebrating;

I knew you replaced yourself before you left
And even though I...
