Long Wets Poems

To speak no more, and yet away it went
Being the sweet poet to let it ready,

When another, which followed in ascent,
Made us to turn our eyes to top...

That color vileness painted on my face
When coming back my duke to me I saw 
His new squeezing inside much more took place.

He heedful stopped as man hearing to draw;
Because his eye could not reach...

So what could be the cause -   
It’s the male menopause   
He’s been grumpy and snappy all day!

"Purgatory is a Poem"



Words are the pieces
in a game we play
shadow and light 
hidden from day
poets are nocturnal
in nature, stasis, 
keen and hungry
listening to 
Forever
stuck between 
the doors to
Past, Now and Never -
senses feral 
and...

is an open page, 
a requiem to be read 
at leisure? 
or you think it a black hole,
impenetrable thick darkness
to peep through?

An imaginary love.

So many flowers in the greying sky.
As waves of rainbows fluster bye.
The raindrops on the dry soft ground. 
So soft a noise almost no sound.
Make the beauty cycle around. 
So much blue in...

A Witch must confirm the Powers in her possession
Before performing an anticipated condemnation
The guilty Judge, rendered immobile and speechless
Wets himself, cowering, trussed and helpless
As the Witch intones the Powers’ sacred Creed
That she has sworn to...

The mountains engulf and embrace me, 
Like the sun shining through a window, 
Pulverising the darkness and gloom, 
With hopefulness and truth, 
Making me aware of my possibilities, 
Not numerous but few -

Tuesday by the bay,
Garden tour dazzles;
Wonder now portrays,
Profound joy dangles.


Our first visit here
As monsoon rain wets;
Yet we feel good cheer
Greeting our mindset.


Stroll these spacious grounds,
Eco-friendly space;
Feel earthy surrounds
In timely embrace.


Take the audio trip
As the tram...

rain wets my pain,
wets my dust of gain,
cleans my walking lane,
find I inside a path of sane

cows, calves, goats run away dancing


rain comes and wets nature
dogs, cocks,...

Grasp for breath, I chewed down some aspirins.

911, ambulance at the...

A Fond Farewell

when being a wild editor
would constantly fight with a creditor
who was a pretty puny predator

with mouth open wide
lied about what was inside
their tongue had been tied

(With devil could (should)(would) confide)

Radio impulse
Stray songs invite;
Hip melancholy

Words and lyrics
Basket of moods;
Mental corridors

Sour-sweet yellow

To give it tiny squeezes
