Long Unctuous Poems

The bet had been bound ... and boldly called,
          Right there on the cold castle grounds at eventide -

You want to know its merits? 
Very well, then. Daylight slants 
deliciously across the boy's 
inclined, thoughtful face. 
His lace collar, crumpled, 
houses valleys of shadow. 
Or what about the Water Seller? 
Look at that...

Wordless worries wander wearily working wayward,
    Towards thoughts transgressing truth’s textured tide.
As always acknowledging agnosticism’s appeal,
    Essence easily evaporates, exeunt Emile. 
Very virtuous violent vowels vociferously validate,

In a cosmic world where marvels dwell,
There lies a well where truth does swell.
Under the surface of the cultural tide,
Dissemination of erudition, hence and wide.

Yet, amidst the waves, dishonesty lingers.
Distorting the successful...

The Ruba’iyat of Créteil Lake – Part Nineteen

“Not that I had not spied your tulip-lipped doting jasmine airs
Nor the way your wraith-like form take me back to sumptuous fairs
Of Samarkand yore whence I dallied with...

Copper robbers ... penny-ante coin collectors
Duly appointed by Caesar Cersei,
deputized purse snatchers
Modern day publicans holding the money bag,
appointed bean counters
being levy 
abacus austere
Placing palm heavy fines on the people
of the Iron throne realm,
keeping them usury...

I arrived early today for the appointment made months ago,
And began the interminable wait to see the medico.
When I checked in it was already half-past noon.
The nurse said, "Take a seat and we'll be with...

Write some limericks using words below.
Here are some examples that I just created.

Bar Stool Had Been Destroyed

Instead of him being a drinking fool, 
Threw bar stool into swimming pool;
Now no longer here,
Or close...

This bowl of lobster shells 
looks very pretty
and yet so sad.
The bright red carcasses 
all cracked and emptied out
have served me well
with their luscious innards
of tender sweet flesh
unctuous with brine and butter
that sated me
and gratified 
my deep-sea desires
for this ultimate
New...

Twas darkness upon the quietly residing heath...
And deathly was the sullen red sandstone tower...
Standing gloomily inside the masons dry-stone walls
Amidst toppling granite slabs and the faded, wilting flower.

Solemn was the chime of the hollow, mournful...

Ever snorted cocaine? 
I watched some partiers snort cocaine last night,
in a dark, Manhattan nightclub corner celebration.
But I’ve never crossed that line. The white line.

When offered some, with unctuous camaraderie, 
I shrugged and said, “No,...

THE WORDS CAME OUT ...

I am the mannequin metal hinges rusted articulations
The unfeeling solid dead wood that swirls with patterns
The unctuous rat flickering black eyed damp molasses tipped fur he's
wet drenched sweat

Two pair of Eyes, assigned as leads,
by the puissant heart! As per the role had needs.
The play comprised a script of emotion,
and the pair showed utmost devotion.

Though rebellion ushered, but still they quelled,
Unaware of what...

She lived to be the oldest of a staid, 
unremarkable bourgeois family.
Lavender and off-white lace,
complemented her black ruffled attire.
She played the Granddame with much aplomb,
the matriarch of her passionless clan.

Occasionally her offspring
and her offspring’s offspring...

Grease the binary palms ...
singular greed motive,

Paper cancer in the brain — 
MRI diagnosis

Malignant Reptilian Imaging

Scaly thoughts

Integrity bought ...

There in the ghetto,
rising with the pain,
it is as if the one deprived of consciousness—
targeted by ignorance, ego at the helm,
was born to anger—
there, where raw emotion rules,
there the roots are suddenly exposed,
the unctuous light...

O thee I praise, and I sure ain’t fakin’
The fairest ether of carnal substance, our bacon!

That unctuous crunch so satisfying
I can already hear my fat cells sighing

Yea, about you there’s not one thing faulty
You make...

I took from you, your own free will,
but need you living for me still
I need you, loyal; unctuous, 
to protect me from the killing light

I control all things; save my thirst,
which started with my very...

Life secretly offering fleeting moments of happiness… but the underlying sadness creeps through; the grief of human condition always seeps through from the unconscious. I always imagined it as the watery liquid separating from the...

I plurm and glorp with every breath
My existence defies and deifies death

I splurp and glomph amongst your days
Indistinguishable from mud and haze
I slig and slorg, a dark breamy blaze
with unctuous vim I sleam through your...

I feel a chafing around you

With your coarse attitude

You're grotesque ego means nothing to me

You harangue in your hoarse tones

Anyone who you feel opposes you

I find you ignorant and arrogant in truth

Unctuous and obstreperous you...

In answer to his kind comments
I wandered into his domain.
Devouring words leapt out at me.
I feared I’d not get out again.
With phrases hanging in the air
And meanings hard to comprehend
I struggled mightily to free
My mind...

In the beautiful, grand stillness 
Of a place for the transcendent, 
Like a lately-faded illness 
Seems the ugliness of now,
And I dare not look behind me, 
Lest the simpering of the finite, 
In the form...
