Long Under the same roof Poems

Trumpeting future mercurial villain of history

Predicated on his paying obese sense
to Ronald McDonald patron saint
buzzfeeding his pie hole
courtesy "two Big Macs, Fillet-O-Fish
and a chocolate malted,"
he hungrily nabbed the ?Tuesday,
November 5, 2024? election
ofttimes series of unfortunate...

Doubting Thomas luxuriates under Dylanesque milkweed

made fibrous threads...constituting heavy blanket
(crocheted by the missus)
on a cool Autumn like morning...

to stave off experiencing getting
chilblains, goosebumps,
or subjected to the blast of cold air
wafting thru the opened bedroom window

My intimate stranger

Why are we so far away from each others thoughts?

But our minds are miles...

The old woman gasped for breath

And pleaded air to enter into her nostrils

She beseeched before the heavens

To pump back health into her

She sensed the fear of her heart

Embroiled in a war between...

UNQUOTABLE QUOTES: XLIV

Don’t translate poems if you want yours read.
A pain in the ass is a pain nevertheless.
A « race" in any other language is still the shape of the nose.
Every cloud hides shining gold...

Heated house of horror roasting on open flames. When did this house cease to be a home. I quest when the secrets of our truths manifested in different outlooks on life and our personal agenda's...

I loved the times when our family was young…everyone under the same roof…
I felt we were invincible…indestructible…I felt we were shatterproof.

That feeling is often tested over the years…as many parents have known…because one day you...

What more could I have done? I'd already taken far too much.
There was no more gentleness in your voice, nor in your touch.

Your cursing and verbal abuse eroded all my respect for you.
I tried to...

I live in a wooden house
I cannot turn on the fireplace
’cause I may burn the walls
Winter has already come
and the snow covered my garden
and cold froze the neighbor’s water well
I look through the window

And all of us were asked to enroll in some form of art.

On what was each ones part.

It’s an old story.
We were classmates, you and I, 
And later became colleagues,
Working under the same roof.
We had more or less the same specialization.
Married in the same year.
Our children went to the same school.
So far...

If only you can decide,
I will rise up and show you how much I...

CONVENIENTLY ABSENT

You sit alone, neglected,
In your study-room, day after day,
Well of tears drains away,
Spirit of life, parched for lack of sustenance,
Turned off, sounds of harmony, rhythm,
Place, devoid of meaning.

They, once hearth and home,
Drove you out...

She's pure as gold
She's so sweet as an ice cream
I love her so much 
I adore her so much

And together, under one flag we were raised
We share a...

UNLOVED

She longed to be treated as a partner should be
Loved, appreciated, valued, respected, supported and cared for
Sadly, she can't remember feeling those things
Oblivious to her needs, the man whose name she took, 
now takes her...

We spent twenty two long years together
under the same roof, so, I know him better than others,
