Potpourri of new verse - some could be better, some could be worse

"For Madmen Only"
He enters of his own volition.
Boxcars he rolls
Double Sixes! the Macabre Maestro
conducts his orchestra
Hermine still sings
A...

A Billion Soul Mates
By Rick Rucker

No more than there is a “perfect” date.
In searching for a match,
I easily found a glorious catch!
To say I love her, makes me...

All In a Day At the Louvre
Magnetic attraction, enchanting dream of a lifetime -
majestic pyramid attracts my eye,
mystique draws me in

Art from the heart, a religion of ritual,
where One summons God and glory to center stage,

Vampire
Time of change, years ago
Since then life's bittersweet
Cold seeped into my life force
This engendered great remorse.
History coloured many days
Odd wondrous moments enjoyed
Benjamin Disraeli kissed my hand
His charm I managed to withstand.
Was presented at Russian court

A Final Letter From the Heart My Love
A final letter from the heart my love
You sat in Vermeer’s room, maid by side;
As daylight positioned at your writing place,
Decanted through the stained glass view-
Where she did stand; there; observing
Those that came and went.
Your...

Ars Longa
It finally happened!
Someone in the East Wing
Goateed a Madonna and redid a Rembrant
a la de Kooning.
A blond with Vogue patterns

She's eyeing a Van Gogh
eyeing her from the wall.

My Mistress' Eyes Are Nothing Like the Sun
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun.
Her skin's mahogany, not regal white.
She slaps on paints and fillers by the ton,
