Long Vacillate Poems

"Ground Level Entry"

“She fits the bill”,
they say it 
insouciantly

visions of being 
carried in the beak 
of a bilious pelican 

where it builds
its rudimentary nest, 
it uses sticks and debris

no stones, yet,
from irreverence
thrown at it

no higher...

"FAKE" assertions unstoppably
bandied with beef,
(sans doughty deeds done dirt cheap)
courtesy of commander in chief
trumpeted as a way to backout,

embarrassment analogous to the thief
of Baghdad, when culpable faux pas
woe philly pops thought balloon of mine
reckons with...

*** OF AND ABOUT IT ALL ***

Life’s  so much a-coming or a-going,
With hours of waiting or flowing
From now to next
While we step about, hopefully blessed —
On a quest for things major or minor to...

Infinite pitch black void zooms,
I vacillate to pitch headlong (head over heels)
where freedom looms
large (think) cosmic size grand canyon grooms
espouses, and cloisters unbridled wedded bliss
structured sound of silence booms.

Dawdling against inevitable fate
temporarily holds in check...

A halo glow, faint, it’s shadow,
hangs on gossamer web of angel wings.
Voices flutter through naked space.
They float on clouds of love 
high, high above the universe.
Singing praise and adoration
of man in his purest form.
The portal...

we wish to keep the cake

left foot in one boat

sitting on the fence ...

Open hearts to victims of neglect
In communities immunized from kindness
Hardened by design to the core to select
The affluent whose blindness and fondness for coldness and heartlessness

Shunt aside concerns of the bottom of the pyramid
Whose human...

Humans are capable of ‘Changing their State’. At times, a stressful, negative fusillade can be encountered from an individual wishing to subvert a person for whatever reason.

default, your domain undisputed,
a challenge to accept,
that we are the exception,
never asking exemption,
this said without pretention,
to come across the fulcrum,
you would know the tension,
a fate which lies in question,
 
how are we defined,
what is deviation,
when...

Oh, where are those waves
of bygone days
that caressed and rocked
on hearing you cry?
‘Sleep little ship’ I'd murmur low
while ocean crooned her soft lullaby

Turbulent change wrought by tempestuous winds
Fresh cravings to taste the...

“The known always changes; knowing never changes.”
? BY Rupert Spira

A super brown and fluttery bird greets me.
Tap at my window and ask, "Didn't you see?"
It chimes, drawing my insight into a refrain.
My flesh is older,...

Anecdotal ancestors are anxiously arriving.
Bringing Betty’s bugs behind Beauty’s book bag
Creepy Clementine chases Crazy Charlie
Deliberately doing dainty delicate dynamics.
Effortlessly engaging exciting English earls.
Furthermore furiously finding frivolous friends.
Generous grandma gestures gaily.
Hoping heavy hitters help Heroic Henry.
Ideally...

A severe risk as a result of the global warming challenge 
Concerns have arisen as an outcome of a wavering climate.

If you can keep your head, when calling for a vote,
and knowing if you err, it’s all your fault?
If you can go for those who vacillate and float
when all around are begging you to halt?

As I sit here plucking out words on my keyboard,
wondering if there is hope and praying that our Nation can once again be restored.
The question comes to mind, where did we lose our way,
that brought...

Your list of words is *dubious,
so many came from slang.
I fear my up-tight mama
would forbid the whole shebang.
*Affaire de coeur is French of course
and we may only borrow.
I also know what’s slang today
could be correct...

i mistake the divine
as i tend
to worship your tune
let the music define
and then rend
what is left of me

tilt your neck against mine
do pretend 
i'm all yours to wound
it's your touch on my spine
that may bend

Acrotic?
Bored, I got sunburnt,
Evidently, I learnt,
Across the road ,
Cantered cane toads, 
Henry thought it’s fine,
Bull mastiff Jerry Hog's,
Laugh's at every bodies dogs,
A growling all the time .
No body wore their togs,
Kangaroos were banned,
Elisa sat and...

Poetry notebook in my jittery hand, I vacillate
   what if she finds it dull… obtuse…
   beneath her... culturally insensitive?
What if she laughs at its pathos,
   groans at its length,...

the crazed to rave and poets to praise your grace.
How many love affairs have you helped to consummate?
With a woman’s many wiles, you change your shape.
