Long Tigress Poems

Let Me Give Her Diamonds
by Michael R. Burch

Let me give her diamonds
for my heart's
sharp edges.

Let me give her roses
for my soul's

Let the flowering of love
outlast a winter
season.

Let me...

I posit picayune propensities prevail among pesky management

Most favored renter status imposed on us
i.e. meaning myself;
(one tarnished prince of Highland Manor)
and the missus, his princess consort
who must abide by rigorous writ
of tidiness, whereby
every flat surface...

Bruce

A lumbering man, 
audibly achily, stepped to the
floor’s center.
Had there been a spotlight, he’d’a shone.

His arms unfurled.
His hips spun.
His soles, silent
as he padded here,
then twisted to place a foot there.

A phoenix swooped, festooned in fire’s...

Spread not thy leathery wings in fancy flights.
From the generic evolution, into future clones.

as workers went upon their way,
night stars in a day's blue sky,

Fleet of foot,
down the stone steps, she seems to float,
now, ready to chase the wind,
Auburn locks now dancing.
Beauty dances through the crowds,
on golden walkways, she moves with grace,
upward, ever upward,
her long legs, running strong, 
onward,...

As the people, sadly, walk through the gates,
they firstly bow before Turvehr, their honour dictates,
honour is shown to the Dark man, 
whose great glory known, before coming of man.
The history, the mystery, 
the great glory,...

Cries of beast and man intertwine,
mortals lamenting what has been done,
this night is filled with sorrow,
forever horrific scenes pressed into the mind.
From this sorrow, can glory really take flight?

Cranes fly miles 
During the winter 
Migrating birds 
Hoping to reach their destiny. 

Buzzards along the way 
Look for pigeons 
That seek to feasts and 
long legged buzzards 
search for pigeons 
Inside pigeon holes.

Inner polarity sparks an echoic consciousness. 
Ecstasy magnetically undermines selflessness. 
Soundlessness indicates process stabilization. 
Every breath spawns inner veiled polarization.

Proceed forward, but remember those left behind. 
Your imperfections jostle you powerful and kind. 
Life is about seizing odds that fit...

The Tigress stands at the side of Turvehr,
her head hung low, her face hidden by dark hair,
tears falling freely from her eyes,
in Heaven, the mighty cry tears from the skies.
Mortal sea does now divide,

The mounted riders, 
they speed forwards,
Turvehr did kick with heaven's power,
his mighty horn tearing and rending,
His eyes,
afire with hates desire,
his coat,

when kissed by Sol.
He was the destroyer of...
