Recluse By Dint of Circumstance

Recluse by dint of circumstance

Proud anonymous troglodytes 
forerunners of mine
confronted threats less horrific
than forty fifth commander in chief
of United States of America.

He/him (matted hair, ratty, scrawny, 
and tetchy ugly villain)   
scurried into dark...

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 24

In the morning, he was tetchy, but gentle,
Sitting beside me till my eyelids opened
I sat up, yawning, and rubbed my eyes
His hand brushed a dry tear off my face

“You are alive and well, I see,...

The Narrowing

Glowing days that were once red-cheeked and ripe with promise,
Are narrowing like tall candles in a church window,
Tapering from the golden stand and the sturdy base,
To the glorious flame and the ever fading light.

Both burdened by...

He/him (ratty, scrawny, 
and tetchy ugly villain)   
scurried into dark recesses of hermitage
averse to cavort, frolic, inure himself
into the duplicitous schemes
capitalized, glorified, popularized

The Hermit

The Hermit
Part 1

Beyond Two Sullen Hill, not too far away,
Lives a solitary man, bitter, old and grey.
Known as the Hermit with heart of cold,
His life of unpleasantness is often told.

Many believe you would turn to...

Onerous Anus Complex Number One

Pain in the ass devoid of dreck
inapropos poetic material what the heck
more unbearable than crick in neck

Onerous Anus Complex Number 2

cuz poisonous toxins sting like scorpions
severely crimping ability to sit down absorption
radiating throughout every
cell guaranteeing abstention
against hidebound contract, no

ifs, ands, nor but tucks
whereby mood linkedin
to nihilistic abstraction
particularly as quasi pincers jabbed
like sharp serrated knives acceleration

Taking Today's Tumblerful Tea Time

In his turbo space machine 
He has promised he will set me free
If I help him find a queen .

An Insight From Moss

After making the trip to Bar Harbor in Maine,
we set off on excursions within that domain.
In the midst of events, aggravating, arcane,
we began at a loss.

We embark on a most unpredictable task -

To Be I Don'T Want To Be

Oenophilia

It's always been an uncanny pleasure of mine, 
To behold the tetchy affair that thrives between
A gregarious man and his choice crimson wine; 
For each loves and loathes in equaled measure. 

How both meticulously give...

Gambit

Bat-blind to looming gripe and cold decay,
Clueless shoots jump onto life's gay stage,
Oblivious of Grim Fate's scything designs
That waste with disease and stealing age. 

They wouldn't turn around and at once behold
Slowly waning sires with...

As though awaiting that princely kiss
It worries me that in years to come
I will be horrified showing my bum

Will life be kind, will know no fear
Not with loving parents always...

Undaunted

Tasteless pelt whiffs of mundane air
Against my nostrils numb with dread; 
Scarcely fathom I what spectacle fair 
Beyond this umbra curtain latent lies. 

Tetchy harbingers over dark corners
Lurk under dismal mirage-like cloud; 
Tomorrow's dreams in...
