To this chimera crossroads

But science fiction

Ironically, is behind the times

I’ve kept writing vigils like Virgil.

I muse ‘neath the...

Smacked the shalliwag’s hand good and clear
He might be my cousin, but not really dear
He was getting too close to my golden pot
He should have known better, he really ought

Hey! The Clurichaun yelled as I...

It was warm in the yurt; the desert was unyieldingly hot.
There was the slight scent of ylanylang, it was sweet.

There's a shilling in the cellar
There's a killer who's a sham
There's a miller with that feller
In a dilly of a jam
There's a tiger on the telly
There's a Schweiger in a pram
Have some jelly for your...

Achieve greatness by running a race.
Break sound barriers- just go to outer space!

Climb a mountain to get a good workout.
Deliver a speech- you'll probably have to shout...

Earn some money by helping clean up.

To hell harbinger, niggling winsome words,
has grasped the devil's share, for menhir size
Has pencilled in his own and crossing swords-
It errant's change which seeks the high rewards.

As such they'd yammer the athiest priest

she should have cried...

When a spat leaves you blue-faced and chokin'
This advice may keep love's bond unbroken:
Don't go angry to bed,
Listen to what's being said
And not merely to what's being spoken.

The moon was big and lit-up,
so of course, some local dog
was barking like crazy.

I got up, it was half past the tic of time
and way deeper than any sunken face.

I was a little wasted;

In this so-called modern world today
There's lots of cause for apprehension,
And all the crazy stuff that's going on,
Like the hubbub up in Washington,

I find, this fact, indeed this most peculiar.
Stammering, stuttering we yammer about fixing the earth!
Yet read the poetry, full of how, "it does not work".

Inner inspiration ingress insight,

Lucent living levitates life,
Obsequious observations overflow oceans,
Victory’s’ vivaciousness vestiges vision,
Exuberant expressions eradicates enemies,

Unity unfurls Urania uptorn’,

Essence emanated eradicates egos,
Togetherness taps tepid toes,
Easters eternality en-gild eggs,
Regal rationality...

Or your problems or your family or your mother-in-law today.

She took her own neck
into her own hands
and tugged and howled silently.
Have I seen this before?

Am I watching a film
or hearing a dream?
No scream, or invisible, inaudible
scheme performed by my head?

Can they see my movements...
